The University A Capella choir, among its four numbers, will take part in a Christmas choralogue, "The Visit of the Magi," in which Robert Calderwood, associate professor of speech, will read the text against the background of a humming choir. The choralogue, written by W. B. Olds, was presented as a part of the Vespers seven years ago.
The choir will open the principal part of the program with Leonovitch's "Carol of the Bells." On their presentation of Paladilhe's "Benedictus," Meribah Moore and E. M. Brack will sing the soprano and tenor solos respectively, and when the group closes the musical portion of the program, with "Psalm One Hundred Forty-eight" by Gustav Holst, they will be accompanied by the University symphony orchestra, directed by Karl Kuersteiner. Both the choir and the orchestra will take part in the processional and recessional, and during the program, the orchestra will play Beethoven's Symphony No. 7.
