CELLO ENSEMBLE
in PARISH HOUSE
HERE FEBRUARY 5

A company of, notable artistic
merit--the Cello Ensemble and Little
Symphony VIII be the next number
on She X, NJ c. A. entertainment
course, appearing at the Episcopal
Parish House, Friday, February s.,
at 5 p. in.
An interesting feature of this
splendid companys program is a
cello quartet, an arrangement of un-
common beauty which lends itself
to the exquisite rendering of a fine
type of musical selection.
In another part of the program,
the company becomes a Little Sym
phony, employing two violins, two
cellos and piano.
The program given is classic or
semi-classic in character. So skill
fully is the program arranged, and
so beautiful is each individual num-
ber, that is appeals as greatly to
those who are not deeply versed
in music, as it does to genuinh
music-loyers.
Readings by Miss. Dolly Stewart
are a pleasing program feature.
The Cello Ensemble and Little
Symphony is sure to prove one of
the most popular numbers on the
course.
