“1812” OVERTURE
MUNICIPAL CONCERT The Auckland Municipal Band completes the third year of its musical activity with a splendid programme in the Town Hall to-night. The outstanding number is the "1812” overture, Tsehaikowsky’s virile musical picture of the Battle of Borodino and subsequent retreat of the French Army under Napoleon from Moscow. Other fine items are:—March, “The Vanished Army”; overture, “Italiana in Algieri”; “Peer Gynt” suite; Liszt’s Second Hungarian Rhapsody, and a descriptive idyll, "A Forest "Wooing. Miss Kate Christie and Mr. Jean Dellore, with Mr. Leo Whittaker at the piano, will give several charming vocal items.
