A Cappella Choir To Sing Sunday
The KU A Cappella choir will present their annual fall concert at 3:30 p.m. Sunday in the University Theatre, featuring two major works
The first is the "Pope Marcellus Mass." This is the most famous of Palestrina's 91 masses and one of the great masterpieces of the 18th century.
The second work is by the contemporary British composer, Benjamin Britten. The piece, "Ceremony of Carols," was written in 1942 for treble voices and harp.
Soloists in the "Ceremony of Carols" will be Beverly Runkle Pittsburg, Wausley Sharp, Kansas City, Mo., Sara Jo Pursley, Coffeyville, all seniors; Martha Crowley, Pittsburg junior; Rosemary Nation, Chanute, and Judy Buck, Kansas City, Kan., both sophomores. Margaret Ling, instructor in harp, will accompany.
The final group on the program will consist of four traditional Christmas carols arranged by Shaw-Parker. They are "Masters in This Hall," "So Blest a Sight," "Christ Was Born On Christmas Day," and "Here, 'mid the Ass and Oxen Mild.'"
He Never Fails To Look Ahead
A journalism faculty member (the one noted for his cheerful disposition) was observed poring over Tuesday's University Daily Kansan late that night, wincing every now and than.
He glanced up and remarked
drivy:
"You staff members shouldn't boast, about knowing that St. Joseph's College is in Philadelphia. Some reader may point out that it's also in West Hartford, Conn.; Collegeville, Ind.; Emmitsburg, Md.; Brooklyn, and Yonkers, N. Y."
Muttered the assistant managing editor from St. Mary's; "I'll bet he looked those up first just to impress us."
Husband, Wife Combination To Present Voice Recital
A husband and wife combination will present a recital at 8 p.m. Wednesday in Swarthout Recital Hall.
