Miss Lynch, organist at the Colon

evening this week. A key that per-
sisted in ciphering on the Moller

lent in spite of the efforts of the
talented musician to make it be-
have. All the persuasion of which

certion of the late DIR. William Wallace
Gilchrist for n number of years director
of the Harrisburg Oratorio Society and
one of the biggest musicians in TIE east
ern part of the United States. probably
is the best. DR.. Gilchrist wrote the
most penitent parts of the hymn into
solos for contralto voice and contem-
plated the presentation by a voice of
exceptional range. his lowest note being
B below the staff and the highest II.
The melody of the solo is employed as
n theme for the choruses which follow
three solo settings. The composition
has had little recognition here. but 1t
frequently appears on the church pro-
grams in the big cities and invariably
proves inspirational and compelling.
