Pasquale Tallarico to Entertain for Civic Music Lovers.

T hist of the series of artist concerts to be presented to South I'end music lovers by the Civic Music a.-sociation will bring Fasquale Tallarico. Through a misunderstanding, it was announced in the daily papers that he wou.d he here on Wednesday night, Iec. 12, but the date for the concert is Thursday night, Iec. 13. S'onip confusion seems to exist concerning the concerts given by the association. Members are entitled to the regular monthly concert given by the local artists and a reduction of Ö" cents mi the $1.50 ticket which is charged for three artist concerts. Aim is (iooxl Music. South Bend's Civic Mush association is making a desperate effort to popularize good music and their ultimate success is already assured. The aim of the association is to give the public good music for just what it costs the association. The regular monthly concerts are always interesting and entertaining anil the C. W. Liest artists entertainments are not surpassed by any lyceum course or any company in any city. It is tho duty of every music lover in South Iiend to support this movement as the city is sadly negligent when it conies to anything pertaining to art. Will Please Any One. Tallarico will please anyone, whether musician or not. Although an Italian by birth. he is justly proud of having received all of his mufical education in America, his adopted country.

He lias been the successful soloist with the following orchestras: Philadelphia Symphony, Chicago Svmnhony, St. Louis Sym phony and Los Angeles Symphony. His program for Thursday night will be as follows: 1. Sonata, A major Schubert Allegro Moderato Andante Allegro. J. Prelude. Choral and Fugue. Cesar I'ranck S. At Church In the Night Novak l.e Collines d'Anacapri Ii Cathedrale Kngloutie. Debussy Jeaux il'Fau Havel 4. Nocturne C sharp minor Valse, i: Hat Prelude.
