Baker is teach- jer and director, held its final rehear- |8al before the concert which it s to {glve at the Davis theater, which will be the second and final concert for the “orchestra this season. The whole or= chestra numbers 48 players, which pro- vides for a very complete sympony erchestra. Frank L. Farrell, planist, has been | engaged as the solaist for the concert and the orchestra programme this time is a much more ambitious effort than has been attempted by the or- ganization before. | "It 1s a fact worthy of note that all the players who take part in the com- ing concert are local musicians except three, who are Thomas Joseph Byrne, \fifst oboe of the Hartford Philhar- |monic, John Keller, viola, of New Ha- ven ,and J. L. Cady .string bass, of Hampton. The 22 violins of the string section are ail pupils of Mr. Baker, who organized the orchestra for the purpose of affording study and prac- tice of the best of orchestral music by the best composers. | The proceeds of this concert, as also {of the former one, are to be devoted {to purchasing instruments for the use lof the orchestra, which are to belong to the orchestra as an organization, and it is hoped that the time will soon come when there will be local players for evéry instrument used in the orchestra, which will be possible if the society owns ali the little used in- struments like oboes, tympani, French horns, busses, etc. It is Mr. Baker's desire to eventual- ly organize a Philharmonic society in | Norwich, similar to the one in Hart- |ford, with active and honorary mem- |bers, and forming a permanent svm- phony orchestra for the purpose of giving a series of popular priced con- certs each spason. This will give voung and ambitious players an opportunity to study great {orchestral compositions, and gain ex- perience in ensemble work that can be scauired in no dther way, and will be invaluable to them in after years. Progress in Flower Market Plans. | The chairmen for the various com- | mittees for the Flower Market, which {15 to be held under the auspices of the Norwich Playground association at the Roman Steps on May 24 from nine oclock until six, held a meeting on Wednesday to report progress.
