This is a splendid musical organization, playing the class of music that vaudeville people like. As the act stands it was a decided success, all of their number [sic] being strangely applauded and a big hand at the finish. While the act will go anywhere in its present shape, and no one need it to be afraid to play them, I am going to suggest that they cut out the singer for future engagements and make an allowance on the salary for his absence. I don’t think he adds anything to the act, my impression being that the audience are more interested in the instrumental work of the four players, and in the short time allotted to them it would be better to give them an entire program of instrumental music. Whether or not this is done, this is an act that should be booked; it will draw musical people like wildfire and please everybody. The applause was just as strong from the second balcony as from the orchestra floor. 20 min. F.S.
