The fresh voices of the AugS-

of the fine raw material that
many college conductors have to
work with. Far above the av-
erage. though, is the magnificent
instrument Leland Sateren has
formed of the young singers from
Augsburg College of Minneapolis.
Their concert last night at
Reformation Lutheran Church
could have filled a church or
community choir director with
envy for the pure, effortless
sound of their singing. Their
voices blended smoothly and
sang difficult intervals and pas
sages with an ease and accuracy
that made the whole thing seem
as natural as breathing.
Mr., Sateren has the gift Of
drawing music from voices with
out strain or fuss. Among the
composers he chose we're several
with a knowledge of the secrets
of writing for voices.
Vittoria and Bach would stand
at opposite poles on the theory
of choral composition, but each
wrote music that stands with the
greatest ever written for choral
voices. OF contemporaries on the
list, Jean Berger and Paul Chris
tiansen particularly understand
the mechanics Of choral writing
and have even ventWed into
contemporary sounds with some
success.
