SINGERS AND YODLERs

The Tyrolean Alpine Singers and
Yodlers. who are to appear on the

natives of the Alpine regions in south

themselves" They have re.nined for
many generations the quaint costumes.

their ancestors.
Their music Is distinctly character
istic Of their mountain life and their
songs are full Of a rare. thrilling quail
ty that appeals to every one. Their
voices are strong and beautifully modu.
lated They are a versatile company.
each being soloist. and they are able
TO present a unique program of great
variety.
Yodeling. which forms an important
part OF many Of their songs is peculiar
call or warble. and it originated among
the Alpine people many generations
ago. and these calls have been given
and answered through the mountains
for many years. AS part of their
songs they have a real meaning and
often express deep sentiment.
Their native instruments are the
either. harp and guitar. and seldom
does boy or girl grow to maturity
without becoming more or less an ex-
pert on one of these Instruments.
America first became interested IN the
Alpine singers and yOdlers in 1904.
when II company appeared at the Ex-
position In st. Louis Thousands Of
people marveled at the volume and
harmony of their voices and the beau
y of their costumes.
Formerly their entire programs were
civen in tie German dialect. but in re-
cent years. having appeared before
hundreds of Chautauqua audiences.
they have added American folk songs.

more popular pieces. Their program is
