ROCK BAND CONCERT AT 80.
NORWALK BAPTIST CHURCH
Members of a Versatile Family
.Enlertainod Large Audience
With Peculiar Instrunionts
The most peculiar musical instru-
ment. ever heard in The Norwnlks was
that of the Rock Band, at the, South
Norwnlk Baptist Church. last evening.
and it was no more nor less lban u
gigantic xylophonc made of slabs of
rock.
The members of the 'I‘ill family. who
comprise the band, also render exclu-
lent music on other peculiar inslrn~
meats, like the musical glasses, the
swinging harps. the ocurlna. the gig
ilira. beside giving vocal selections
and readings. Such a versatile fain-
ily never before appeared in the city.
The concert. was a remarkable one
and. the Baptist Church was crowded
to the doors, standing room only being
the rule for those who were a trifle
late. The peculiar stone musical in-
strument which excited considerable
curiosity was made of different sized
slabs of paleozoie rocks from tho. Cum-
berland mountains in England. The
racks are a combination of gut-ins and
hornoblonde and are very hard in~
dried. When struck by n snutll bant-
mcr they cause a ringing sound like
a hell. The low notes are tut-xprcus-
uhiy sweet and lhc whole t-n‘t-ci is
pleasing.
It took many years to find the ncc-
uasnry stones for the instrument and
lunch exploration of the mountains
was necesary to succeed. It sounds.
however, like a sweet toned grand pi-
ano.
