“As each session goes you bands improve,” said the judge, Mr. Kerry, after hearing the seven bands in the A grade test selection. “When I heard the hymn section I was beginning to wish 1 had not come to New Zealand, but there has been good playing to-night.” His big criticism, said Mr. Kerry, was the thin cornet playing, which he could not tolerate. M/any corniats gave the imprtess.lon that they had just begun the cornet a fortnight before the contest. He was particularly impressed by t\no trombone players and one sopra.no cornet.
