MUSIC PLAYING MAJOR ROLE IN
 TERRITORY LIFE
By FLORENCE TOBIN Department Music Chairman

Alaska is particularly rich in music and music activities. There Ire several amateur groups in each iarge city in the form of orches- tras, choruseS and trios. There have been study groups but at present none is known to be meeting regu- larly.
 One of the largest choruses is the Normanna Male Chorus of 35 voices which has been active in Ketchikan for about Is years. They have presented concerts in several cities in Southeast Alaska as well as Prince Rupert. Petersburg also boasts a male chorus composed chiefly of Scandinavian singers.
 The Shrine Band ot Ketchikan. directed by pr. R. V. Ellis, presents concerts regularly. The larger high schools of Alaska have particularly fine bands, most of them composed Of mixed groups.
 Metlakatla Band
 The Metlakatla Concert Band of 40 members is the oldest music or ganization of Alaska. It was or ganized in 1877 under the leader ship of William Duncan, mission ary. In 1906 and again in 1909 it toured the United States with suc- cess everywhere.
 The choirs of the churches of Alaska fill an important place in their communities often furnishing the only concerts in their respec- tive localities from year to year. Many of them present regular con- certs while a few have successfully given oratorios of high order.
 The St. Michaels Cathedral, the Creek Russian Church of Sitka, one of the oldest churches on the Pa cific coast, famous for its chimes and famous paintings, has a choir of about 30 members who sing entirely in the Russian language.
 Choral Concerts
 Choirs in Ketchikan and other cities have united in giving con- certs during Music Week The Presbyterian and Christian church. es of Metlakatla present oratorios each year which they repeat ;n Ketchikan and other cities. Met lakatla also has choral society of hundred or more members.
 As whole, music presented by choirs of churches in Alaska is highly appreciated.
 The American Legion and Aux Hilary have recently sponsored small music ensembles. These organiza- tiOns have also sponsored music week in several localities in Alaska. Music has always played an i'm portant part in all Legion and Aux Hilary affairs.
