PART NINE

THE YALE GLEE CLUB

DIDN'T MY LORD DELIVER DANIEL?

arr. by Fenno Heath

"Why not every man?" is the question posed at the strong
climax of this negro spiritual. This is one of many fine
arrangements by Director Fenno Heath for the Yale Glee
Club Series.

POOR WAYFARING STRANGER

"I am a poor wayfaring stronger
a-traveling through this world of woe,
but there's no sickness, toil, nor danger
in that bright land to which I go,"

This is a "white" spiritual, typical of the songs sung by
early pioneers in which a longing is expressed for death
to come and heal the ills of mortal life. It is arranged
for a tenor solo supported by a humming chorus which adds
commentary to the narrative.

Tenor solo: Warren Rothman, '65

THE SWITZER BOY

The audience is treated to a Yale Glee Club specialty -
indeed a tradition - yodelling. This most interesting
of the *Yale Song Book* yodells was derived from the German
tradition of folk music. It was brought to Yale University
by Gustave Stoeckel, the first professor of music at Yale
who was also the first conductor of the Yale Glee Club.

Triple yodel: Bruce G. McInnes, '64
William D. Buss, '64
John W. Ehrhardt, '65

PART SEVEN

THE YALE GLEE CLUB

The Yale Glee Club was founded in 1860 by the class of 1863. A tradition of concert tours began soon afterwards with a trip through the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Since 1921, at the appointment of Marshall Bartholomew, the Glee Club has appeared in every principal city of the United States and has made five European concert tours.

Since Fenno Heath became Director in 1953, the group has made a tour of South America as well as three additional tours through Europe. As an undergraduate Mr. Heath was a member of the Yale Glee Club; the Whiffenroofs, and Director of the Apollo Glee Club. Among his compositions are, "Death Be Not Proud" and "The Three Blake Songs - "Jerusalem", "Tiger" and "The Lamb".

The past summer's eighth Continental Tour was highlighted by the Glee Club's participation in the music festival of Turin, Italy and in the Holland Festival of Amsterdam. Its more recent activities include a Christmas tour, with appearances in New York, Baltimore and Washington, D.C., and joint concerts with the choirs of Smith and Vassar Colleges. Currently the Glee Club is preparing The Mass in B Minor of Johannes Sebastian Bach, to be performed April 12th in Woolsey Hall with Vassar and the Yale Collegium Musicum.

DANA-DANA (folk song)

This exciting rhythmic composition by the Hungarian composer Lajos Bardos was performed by the Yale Glee Club as one of the test pieces at the International Eisteddsfod in Llangollen, Wales last summer. The lyrics describe a gay dance.

Baritone solo: Robert Musil, '64

LAULULLE (to song)

Adapted for a four part men's chorus in the form of a humming background for a tenor soloist by Kilpinen, Finland's most respected composer of songs. The words tell of the solace and refreshment to be found in the beauty of music.

Tenor solo: Kyle Pruett, '65

EVERY TIME I FEEL THE SPIRIT

After a reflective hymn-like introduction a rapid tempo begins and a series of modulations carries the key higher and higher, until the final statement is reached. The feeling is like that of a shouted gospel story. This is one of Mr. Heath's most recent arrangements for the Yale Glee Club.

Baritone solo: Richard D. McKee, '64
