(On to Victory) (Sousa) Sousa’s Band 12 Frozen Bill — Cakewalk (Pryor) Pryor’s Band 10 Although with rare irony Mr. Pryor has christened his cakewalk “Frozen Bill,” there is no danger of any listener remaining frozen, as this ragtime number would galvanize into life an Egyptian mummy. It is not necessary to say more than that this number is fully as good as “Mr. Blackman,” or “Artful Artie.” Funeral March of a Marionette. (Gounod) Sousa’s Band Georgia Sunse t — Cakewalk. (Lampe) Pryor’s Band Gioconda Selection. Pryor’s Band Ponchielli’s operatic works exhibit well his great dramatic gifts, and Gioconda, especially, contains most powerful and effective concerted music, some of which is included in this fine selection. Hail to the Spirit of Liberty March. (Sousa) Sousa’s Band 10 Hallelujah Chorus — Messiah. (Handel) Pryor’s Band 12 This is the most noble and effective of all the choral numbers in Handel’s great oratorio. At the first perform¬ ance of the Messiah, on March 23, 1 743, the great audience was so affected by the grandeur and majesty of this chorus that during the second part it rose and remained standing to the close. From that day to this it has been the custom of a Messiah audience to rise the moment the first “ Hallelujah ” is given by the singers. Handel’s Largo. (G. F. Handel) Sousa’s Band 10 Hapsburg March. (Hoch Hapsburg) (Krai) Sousa’s Band 10 This fine old march has always been a college favorite and has thrilled millions of students in every land. Hawaiian Hymn. (National Air, “ Hawaii ponoi”) Pryor’s Band 10 Hearts and Flowers. (Intermezzo) (Tobani) Sousa’s Band 10 Henry’s Barn Dance. (S. R. Henry) Pryor’s Band 10 The barn dance is still popular as ever as a society diversion, and even the waltz has temporarily taken second place. The Victor is rapidly superseding all other kinds of accompaniments for dancing, which is but natural, for the Victor never plays out of tune or time, never tires, and the music which it produces is always of sufficient volume and rendered by the best players to be found in America. Hiawatha Two-Step. (Moret) Sousa’s Band 10 Hidalguense Two-Step. (Martinez) Police Band of Mexico 10 PRYOR Pryor’s Band, now in the fifth year of its existence, has settled into its perma¬ nent place as one of the greatest bands in the world, under the leadership of the brilliant young conductor and composer, Arthur Pryor. A^-the annuaLengagemenlsot the band" at Asbury Park and Willow Grove in Philadelphia, it is estimated that Pryor’s Band plays to more than one million peo¬ ple. Mr. Pryor's Victor audience is a still larger one, and the superb Pryor Victor records are enjoyed in every part of the world. Pryor’s Band makes records exclusively for the Victor.
