Student Chorus, Inka Taky Trio,
Score in Pan American Concert

High School Choir OF Arlington, Va,
Florence Booker, director, and
Matthew Fontaine Maury High
School Chorus Of Norfolk, Va, the
director Of which Is Sena Bryant
Wood. Mr.. Howerton, at present on
leave Of absence for year of re-
search at Harvard University In the
field Of choral literature and per-
formance, Is director of choral ac-
tiyities at Northwestern University.
It was excellent singing the young
people did in selections that tested
their ability to the utmost. The first
group consisted OF music by the
Dutch composers, Sweelinck and de
Lassus, the Spanish Tomas Luis de
Victoria, the French Clement jan
nequin and the Irish John Dowland,
all contemporaries at the time Amer
lea was becoming known after its
discovery. The harmony Of the young
voices is exceptionally fine with an
equal type Of quality from the full
bass to the clear, sweet sopranos.
Their pitch was impeccable and
their thorough training showed in
clean attacks and shadings.
A second group of songs, closing
the program, ranged from Colonial
days to the present as typified by
composers OF the United States and
Latin America. william Billings
and William Howard Schuman rep
resented the former and Jose Nunes
Garcia and Francisco Mignone Of
Brazil, Juan Orrego Salas OF Chile,
Josue Teofilo Wilkes of Argentina,
the latter. Mr.. Howerton is skilled
director with particular feeling for
polyphony and his expertise in
stressing 1t brought out the rich
harmony of the classics with fine
effect and caught the flavor Of the
Latin American works in q felicit-
GUS manner.
The most colorful artists to be
heard at the Union are Imma SUI
mack. Cholita Rivero and Noises
Vivanco, who make up the Inka
Taky Trio. Their appearance in the
Aztec Gardens last summer left an
unforgettable impression enhanced
by their performance last night. In
elaborate costumes duplicating the
traditional dress Of the Peruvian
Indians, they sang and danced the
folk music Of their country as well
as that of Argentina, Bolivia, Chile,
Cuba and Mexico.
Miss Sumack's voice is in a class
by itself and to this reviewers
knowledge has no counterpart. It Is
at one moment deep contralto
and the next has scared into a
range far above that Of the highest
coloratura. She defles all rules of
production, moving from unschooled
throatiness in some OF the native
songs to bird-like sounds in a high
chromatic scale and to other diff
cult fioritura with complete ease.
She does unbelievable things with
voice that at full power has a
sonorous quality.
The art and the strangeness of
her yocalism Is highly descriptive
in the Inca songs that she under
stands how to reproduce so well.
More dramatic and fiery in her
style, Miss Rivero is also a graceful
dancer as we'll as a singer. Her
histrionic ability pointed up several
of the numbers where she sang in
ensemble with Miss Sunlack. Most
of the accompaniments were played
by Mr.. Vivanco on the guitar with
a rhythmic drum beat supplied by
