The chorus will consist Of $50 picked
voices from the Swedish and Norwe-
gian singing societies and the differ

practicing faithfully for weeks getting
the different choral parts Of the work
in order. Lately the orchestra has
been at work, and when the entire work
is presented next Friday evening, it
is expected that a satisfactory rendi-
tion Of the composition will be given.
OF the work itself, it is difficult to
speak with authority until it shall have
had an adequate presentation. Mr..
Bergquist first conceived it while watch
ing the performance of the NPassion
Play at Oberammergau. Once lodged
in his mind, the thought became more
and more dominant until it found ex-
preston in the completed work. AS
q whole, it is impressive, deeply reli.

musicianly skill. Mr.. Bergquist has

It is seldom that so important a work
is written and presented in the west, as
the new oratorio by J. Victor Bergquist,
the organist Of Augustana church, for
tenor and bass soloists, chorus and or
chestra. The work is a tremendous
thing for a young man to undertake,
portraying as it does the scenes on Cal
vary. It was first written with the
vocal and piano score and the orchestra
ton was completed by Mr.. Bergquist
late last year.
The question Of preparation for pub
lie presentation was momentous one.
Competent soloists must be had who
would be able to sing in the Swedish
Language, in which the oratorio is writ
ten, and they were not easy to secure.
An orchestra must be had. An ade.
quate auditorium was a necessity, and
chorus Of $50 voices must be gath
cred. These were enough to daunt a
less resolute and resourceful man than
Mr.. Bergquist, but after months of
patient.s,effort and much perseverance
all of these essentials have been Sc,
cured, and next Friday evening 'Gol
