ing and volume their work is beautiful.
and they sing without accompaniment
or printed music. The white vest
ments Of the women over the deep red
velvet cassocks, and the red cassocks
Of the men, make an effective picture.
The difficult motet, "Sing Ye to the
Lord" by Bach. opened the program.
and in this number the precision and
clarity Of the singing was most effec-
tive, the various parts in the fugue-
like music being kept distinct through
out the number. Roy Harris choral
symphony in three movements fol-
lowed and was a marked contrast to
the Bach motet. Mr.. Harris has made
his symphony descriptive. not only in
the mood and themes but in the very
marked rhythm. The third move
ment, Inscription" Is a triple fugue,
and it is Dr. Williamsons belief that
this is the first attempt at writing
fugue for voices. Following this the
chorus sang Celestial Voices" for an
encore. DIR. Williamson explaining
that it was a song without words.

dedicated to the chorus during its
Russian tour, and they sang it In the
Russian. @
Miss Manor, who was accompanied
by Ernest Hays at the piano, displayed
beautiful voice Of wide range and
power. and the numbers in her short
group gave opportunity to show her
versatility. Her singing Of Mrs. H. Hs
A. Beach's "Ah, Love but a Day" was
one Of the gems Of the program, her
enunciation clear and distinct and her
phrasiLg and tones beautiful. The
aria Pace, Pace, Mic DID," from
Verdi,s La Fora del Destino," was
well done. For an encore she sang
The Little Damosel."
"The Echo" ON Program.
The closing number by the chorus
included Orlando di LAsso's "The
Echo" very effective as the chorus
sang it last night, and Carl Fischer 8
"Slumber Song" was q beautiful bit,
In tone quality as well as shading. The
program was concluded with the Paw
nee Indians Victory Song" as re-
corded by Natalie Curtis, said to be
the only Indian song ever found which
had harmony. The two encores fol-
lowing this were the Negro spirituals
