And even as the words of Bob.
bic" Burns makes the whole Anglo.
Saxon world one, so the coming OF
the Glasgow Orpheus Choir, the
coming Of it's forceful conductor,
Hugh S. ROberton, brings to our
western world a link with Bonnie
| Scotland that is as deep as eternal
harmony of both words and music.
This Is a new "nationaP word
in music. Yet it is as old as
tradition. And one significant ele-
ment of this concert of the choir
from Glasgow is the feeling for
| literature that their very fine art
conveys.
Choral singing such as theirs Is
a lesson to all Of us. They sing
without accompaniment, without
notes. They weave their song into
blend of harmony that makes the
parts less ''part-songs" than a big
choral canvas, upon which they put
their colors with a fine discrimina-
tion of value in the telling of their
stories. And how they tell their
stories!
Also, Mr. Roberton, with his keen
eyes. his quiet mastery, is an
idealist who has put his faith into
the hearts of his choir, his faith
rot alone in the spirit Of a hymn,
but into a national zest, or again
into a fairy realm that breathes
