 The opening number which the club sings has a local interest in that the music is set to poem by William Tyler Olcott of Norwich. "The Song of the Frost King" MT. Olcott has furnished inspirations for numerous songs and part-songs and this number has been used quite extensively by the Choral clubs of the country.
