They make an unusually wellâ€" balanced and melodious choir, and not only is there musical excellence in their work but to this they add notable sense of the dramatic. The baritone was outstanding in his work of adding action and vim to the numbers, while the bass made a special hit with his poise as well as his voice. The two tenors added further vim and exâ€" pressiven<ss to the male section. The quartettes by the male members were deservedly popular. The trio of ladies made even bigger hit with the audiâ€" ence. Their numbers were especially good. Miss Fowler, the mezzoâ€"soprano, has a voice of unusuat power and range as well as a pleasing personality.
