TREBLE CLIFF
 CHORUS CONCERT

Birmingham music lovers were off, fered a treat few evenings ago when the treble clef chorus of the Music Study club presented sacred concert In the auditorium of the First MethodiF church. The work of the club deserves sincere praise and MT. Ferdinand Dunk1ey, director is to be congratulated upon the beau tiful tone quality and smooth phras- ing that characterized the different numbers. The opening chorus, Rach- maninoffs Glorious Forever" rang out in fun, rich unison. and was fol.
 lowed by Schuberts God Is My
 Guide" which afforded 8 striking contrast in its rendition. So quiet so evenly phrased, with. an exquisite purity of tone. particularly in the so prano section. this lovely composition seemed almost like a benediction. Dizet's "Agnus Del" Is pernaps more familiar to local audiences and with organ and violin obligato, gave much pleasure. Mrs. Harry Burn was so- loist in this work and her fresh, lyric voice charmed her hearers. The final number was "The 137th Psalm" by Liszt, with piano. organ, violin and harp accompaniment, well rendered by Mesdames Randall. Morrison, Marks and Chalifoux, respectively. Mrs. Stephenson's beautiful voice was heard in the solo parts and revealed more than usual dramatic quality. The well balanced voices. the clarity of diction. the varied tonal effects of the instruments and fine ensemble, made this number one of outstanding beauty.
 The program was enhanced by the violin numbers of Mrs. Regina Marks and the tenor air from Mendelssohn' s Hymn of Praise" Altogether it was an evening of enjoyment to- those
 who were fortunate enough to be | present.
