WHERE CREAT0RE EXCELS. A Great Band Master Who Departs From Conventional Band Music and Arouses Enthusiasm. Someone has said that Richard Strauss is the rock on which the musical world has split, and it might be said of Creatore that he Is the rock against which the musical tide of the day has dashed in waves of enthusiasm. Creatoro's advent Into the musical world resembles somewhat the afivent of the religious revivalist into a staid, conservative church circle.

Conscientious, hard-working orchestral conductors who had striven in vain fer years to draw the people to orchestral concerts saw this man with a band at his heels and a stick in his hand and frenzy in his actions, and behold, a sensation! The people crowded to see him. for his preys agents had seen to it that every eccentricity became an asset. But people who went remained to hear, and then went baefc again. And the conservative music.ans deplored th sight' Of their ptple following after a sensational and strange god. But it also happened that these same people felt suddenly a musical awakening They listened to the ent husiasric playing of the band and became enthusiastic.

The conductor was living in the music and inspiring his m- to live In it and they In turn were making the listeners live in It. And therein lies the secret of Creatore's power, He is full of enthusiasm. Back of this enthusiasm is a musical nature, were it otherwise his enthusiasm would but lead to chaos. It does le-ad him to exaggeration, to abrupt crescendos that jar on one; to the abuse of the slow tempo that is inartistic, but it also leads him straight to the iiearts of hearers, iiis soul flames into tones and is understood. That makes him what he is to-dua- a favorite.

To say he is the greatest bandfaaster living is foolish, for no one bandmaster can be called the greatest. Each has some excelling point, t'reatore'e men do not play marches as weirSts do Sousa's: he would never become tamous as the conductor of a waltz; the instruments in use in his band are not always agreeable to the ear; other bandmasters are aheitd of him in this respect but when it comes to conducting the better class of music Creat ores' has every other bandmaster outclassed, lie wields his baton with the fri 'il'tn of an urr hcstrnl conductor. He can eliminate the march time beat Men is what others cannot do. For that reason he can giv; the be-si programs of any of the bandmasters for they contain more variety. He plunges into Wagner with the enthusiasm of an Italian and paints music in sensatioal colors, hut after all it enthralls one and disarms criticism during the listening, although afterward, in calmer moments, one grows critical.

One would never call his reading of the Wagner scores authoritative, but no one can deny that it Is eflecUve. All this is preliminary to spying that Creatore opened his two weeks" engagement at the exposition last night me usual afternoon and evening "programs. The afternoon concerts were conducted ty Signor d' Andrea, who witided the baton something after Creatore's style, only less emphatic. The concert was satisfactory and was given before a medium-sized audience. In the evening Creatore hims-lf conducted before a larg- audience, although the night was of the kind that does not lure one to outdoor excursions.

The best work the band did was in the gavotte rm "Mlgnon." and Mussanet siute. Both were beautifully played and showed the "finish that can be produced even with hea vy instruments. The Frei-schutz" overt ute was well done, but in the Lion du Hal" Creatore showed that there is danger of his losing seme of the delicacy he had a couple of years ago. The last program endeit whn selections from "Carmen." Everybody who has heard Creatore's "Carmen" knows how splendidly effective it is. What need to say more The various soloists for the different programs were all good in their lines, Signor Sodero with his harp proving a genet al favorite.

Creatore's engagement at the exposition will cause all those who go to the concerts to feel awakened musically. It is a thing to be roused to musical thri.ls once in a while, and Creatore can roust" them. JENNIE IRENE MIX. MANY BOATS ON WAYS. Local Craft Bsmg Made Ready for Winter Months Other River Notes.
