Earl Simard was the solois tat the Grand Piano. We confess that we do not know a great deal about Music but we ar» firm in our opinion wheén we tnat this selection was very well done. A Double Trio, also very prominen‘ durâ€" ing the Festival, sang an Irish air ‘"My Love‘s and Arbutus" arrauged by G. Fenwick. Doris Kurkoski who won an award at the Festival taca rendered .."Slumber â€"«Boat" ~byâ€" Gaynor and ‘was very well received. She was followed by Evelyn Pexton who sans the "Herding Song‘‘. Evelyn was anâ€" other Student who won great acknowâ€" ledgement at the Empire Theatre iast week. The Senior Girls sang a Czechâ€" oslovakian ~â€"melodyâ€" entitled "Rocking" and the audience sent out great rounds of applause to show their appreciation. Concert was pleasing the audience so muchâ€"that they even applauded this short Fanfare. i ‘The Junior Choir opened the secord half of the evening‘s programme with ‘"Spin, Maiden, Spin" and "Now My Day i; Over", by Barnby. Beverly Stiver, soloist, sang "Passing By" by Purgel} Mr. Edouard Bartlett playing the violin obligatto. We might mention here that Mrs. Wilkins acâ€" companied all of the vocal soloists during the evening. The Conductor refused to play his "fiddle" because "th‘re are so many excellent players and ‘singers playing for you already‘". A few. sighs were heard but the proâ€" gramine went on. The Orchestra playâ€" ed the "Trumpeter" by Engleman snd the soloists in this number were Geoâ€" e Taylor.and Claire Archer, both of Â¥hom competed at the Festival. Geoâ€" rge won first and Claire won second during that event as Trumpet soloists. outsianding sections in Lii‘l David were the Basses and Tenors. â€"The end of the fifteen minute Intor. ssion was announced by a Faxnfare th t.he Trumpets and Drums. The â€" Throughout the programme we noâ€" ticed a few participants moving about from the Orchestra to the Choir and viceâ€"versa. Mr. Bartlett explained that these Students played instruments and also sang with the Choir. The Senior Choir then delighted the audience with a selection from "Porgy and Bess", George Gershwin‘s "I Got Plenty of Nuttin‘." . (Two Nesro Songs "Li‘i David" and "Who Built the Ark?"

The Orchestra then preseated two of Bach‘s works. The first was "Lord of Glory" and the second "Jegu, Joy of Man‘s Desiring" with Alex Nastasâ€" iuk as »oboe soloist. The Condutor mentioned that there were very few Obeo players in the High School Grâ€" chestras.of Ontario and that Alex was one ~of the top players amousg these Alex also plays in the Mcâ€" Intyre Band and he plays with the Orchestra through arrangement with Mr. Lomas. ‘"The Farondole Ovyerâ€" ture by Bizet was then played by the The Concert began with "Entre de Procession"‘ by Batiste rendered by the Orchestra which won a tremendâ€" ous round of applause. Even if one would have attempted to do so it would have been impossible to sclect the most outstanding instruments in this selection. The hall reverberated from them all and gave the audience a deâ€" sire to stand up as is so ‘often done when a groat masterpiece is played. The Senior Choir‘s first number was "Ave Maria® and their rendition of this famous prayer was excellently done for so young a Choir. The next number "All in the April Evening" was the song which won the Choir its highest mark yet during the Festival this week. An introduction to the Orchestra in imitation of varâ€" lous instruments was the Choir‘s next rendition. They sang "The Orchestra‘" one of the light Folk Songs which voâ€" calized the Clarinet (sopranps), the Trumpet (altos), the Horn (tenors), anrd the Drums\(basses) Miss Ruth Mustard was the Choir‘s accompanist throughout the programme. j T.

The "Song of Freedom" by Elgar which gave the audience a feeling of and courage to hear their young boys and girls sing and play such a wonâ€" drous song. Romberg‘s "Scerenade". from, ‘"The Student Prince" was the Senlor Choir‘s next selection. As the very first note was heard a great hush fell over the audience. The next song "The Blueâ€" Tail Fly", brought the Tenors out into the limelight. The remainder of the Choir: supplied accompaniment with their verbal imitation of the Guitar. Hammerstein‘s "Over â€"the Rainbo‘w"‘ was so well done by the Choir that the. audience was left in the clouds of which the Choir had been singing only to be brought back toâ€" earth quickly by the "Prum, tum, tum", of the American Army Song, "The Caisâ€" sojms Go Rolling Along".
