CHICAGO, I I I , March 19.—An unusual array of
musical talent is broadcasting the series of
high-class recitals of brass ensemble music over
Station WBBM, Chicago, sponsored by the
York Band Instrument Co. of Grand Rapids,
Mich.
The series of recitals started on the evenings
of March 6 and 13 and continue on the evenings
of Marcli 20 and 27, and no doubt it will be
a stimulant to band instrument sales because
of the quality of the programs and the excel-
lent musical talent that has been selected.
The recitals through an extensive advertising
program launched by the York Band Instru-
ment Co will no doubt attract tremendous
audiences, and as an effective tie-up aid to
dealers the company has issued window signs
carrying the announcement and the series of
programs.
In addition to the broadcasting by the brass
quartet, the Fanfare Four, the company also
announces that Walter Dellers, the well-known
professional coach, and J. Howard Grantham,
saxophone soloist, will have a part in the pro-
grams.
The Fanfare Four is a little group of sin-
cere artists that represent a development which
merits the attention of good musicians every-
where. Modeled after the string quartet, its
object is to demonstrate the practicability of

They have made their own transcriptions and
arrangements and have added interest in the
form of a short "fanfare" played before each
rendition, based upon some major theme in
the composition which follows.
The work of this organization exhibits a
finesse, precision and insight that transcends
ordinary band or orchestra requirements, which
is not often met with even in symphonic
organizations. Harry L. Jacobs, first trumpet,
is a soloist of note and an outstanding instruc-
tor. The Gault Brothers, who complete the
ensemble, George C, Hugh E. and Frank L.,
have enjoyed wide professional experience and
are associated with the Dixie Music House of
Chicago.
Mr. Dellers has trained many prominent mu-
sicians of the better-known orchestras in har-
mony, counterpoint, orchestration and impro-
visation. His work covers a great many fields
of musical endeavor, including teaching, play-
ing, conducting and composing.
J. Howard Grantham is a saxophone soloist
with the well-known Paul Ash's Orchestra
playing at the Oriental Theatre.
"In addition to the high caliber of the artists
and the programs which have been carefully
selected in keeping with the quality that dis-
tinguishes the York name," said Karl B. Shink-
man, sales manager, in making the latest an-
nouncement, "we have also arranged another
interesting feature for the large audience which
the program draws.
four brass instruments can be used and should
prove a big attraction to brass instrument
players.
"In fact the entire series of programs have
been carefully planned to be a substantial help
to dealers in creating band instrument sales,
and offer the dealer excellent tie-up possibilities
in advertising the programs in his immediate
vicinity. The programs emphasize the care that
has been taken to have them bear the stamp
of quality that marks the York name."
The series is an outstanding event in broad-
casting.
