Miramba Band

Location:
Theater:
Date:
Sunday marked the first appearance in this country by the Venezuelan band.
The band uses one instrument, the miramba (marimba?). Five selections were given, only three were needed.
Their execution is not quite equal to the first Miramba band showcased here a few years ago. The band also lacks showmanship. With several changes the act should be worthy of the "small time." In cities where the other band has not proceeded it, the band should be able to hold down a "big house" position.
