MR ANDREW BLACK.

TO GIVE ANOTHER CONCERT,

Owing to the Talane leaving Gisborne without embatkiDg passengers, Mr Andrew Black and bis talented Company have perforce to etay here until the Saturday, and at the request of some of our leading oilmens, Mr Black and his manager, Mr Tait, have onsent-d to give one more ocnoert, and tbe residents of Gisborne, we feel see, will take this last opportunity of bearing the greatest of all male fingers who has ever visited Gisborne. Mr Bhck has arranged to m in the programme popular in every sense of the word, both in the selection of the programme and the price, so that a full house is assured, aod no lover of a good song, violin solo, or pianoforte selecton, should be absent from the Theatre on Friday D'gbt. Mr Black is down for eleven eorgs. Thick of it, eleven pongs, and when they comprise euoh items bs " Naziritb," “The Lind o’ tbe Leal," Gounod’s magn fioent saored song “ There is a Green Hnl far Away," Sir Arthur Sullivan’s grand erng "Tbou’rt Passing henop, my Brother,” Ob, oh, Hoar the Wi.d Winds Blow,” one ut the most popular of all baiitonc’s songs; the famous old English eong •• Hearts of Oak," one of the songs of cur fathers ; the gay litt'e Irish songs by •*Li:tie Iri hGir',” and "Paddy’s Perplexity,” and ottoc gems of English, Scotch, and Irish songs, it should prove a veritable musical feast to all loveis of a good song, besides being a lesson at very littlo cost to our amateur singe s. Those who had the p'essura of hearing Miss I E'hel Sinclair play tbe violin admit that wo have had nothing floor for many years, and as Schumann’s " Traumeri " are I amongst her numbers, wo feel ebo haß obesen wisely. Mr Adolphe, the young pianist of the oompaoy, is also a star of magnitude, and can only be compared with the beet of the modern school of pianists. He is 21 years of ege. (By an error we wrongly slated 24 the other day). Be should have a great future before him. I As far as wo can c uipaie him ha is oi the same plane as the great Paderewski and Made Hanibouig, and every parent who j has a child learning music should profit by L' ting them hear this iru'y great artist. His p’Ogi'amine is announced iu our advertising columns. Popular prices have been arranged as follows : -Beserved seats (circle and front stalls), 3s; second stalls, 2s ; back scat?, Is. The plan opens at Miller’s this morning at 9 o’clock. We might mention that Mr B ack had arrang'd o open in Auckland io-morrow, continuing ou Saturday and Monday, but of oourro this arargement had to be abandoned, which me.m a great expense, as all arrangements fer halls, otc., will have to be remade, and tbe proposed tour of Botorua aod tho Hot Like Distriot must bo abandono 1, as Mr Black is due in WpUiuijtuu for twq big festival coucprts
