"Land so Fair is the title Of Alfred
Wooler's new sacred song. 1t is pub
lished in two keys-for baritone or mez-
Zosop, and tenor or soprano by Oliver
Ditson Co., both in England and this
country. Our soloists are constantly
looking for songs of this calibre, being
very sweet and melodious. abounding
in rich harmonies; the words are beau
tiful. indeed. Such fine taste as Mr..
Wooler has displayed in this. and other
works will. no doubt, soon bring him
into prominence as composer.
