By ED STRENKOWSKI Special to the Beaver Last Saturday, the orchestra â€" together with the Georgetown and Achill Choral Societies and soloists â€" presented a concert subtitled "Glorious Voices." Serious and light seemed to be the approach. It began with Sanctus and Dona Nobis from Bach‘s Mass in B Minor. Intentions, however good, do not always meet hoped for expectations. The Oakville Symphony continâ€" ues to venture on boldly where othâ€" ers fear to tread. The performers and conductor, David Miller, had difficulty keeping the work together. The next piece, composed by Miller to a setting of Robert Burns‘ poem "Wandering Willie" and sung by mezzoâ€"soprano Susan Cooper, put the orchestra back on the track. The song captured the essence of the poem and the lament of a mothâ€" er unable to see her son before her death. OSO wrestles with Glorious Voices Still on a serious note, the rendiâ€" tion of selections from Brahm‘s "A German Requiem," 0p.45, put the flINDEBENT PH(]POSA.%*- RE N THE SKY @== BONUS FEATURE SAT.

In "How lovely is thy dwelling place", the ensemble came into their own. The second half of the concert consisted entirely of extracts from Humperdinck‘s "Hansel and Gretel". This was the light component of the evening. With the combined forces of Mayor Ann Mulvale as the narrator, soprano Marian Katerina Sjolander as Gretel, Susan Cooper as Hansel, baritone Donald Jones as Father, and tenor Henry Ingram as Our lease has expired.

Thus, the lighter compoâ€" nent of the program turned out to be the more successful. The general impression of the Oakville Symphony is that of late it has become a more cohesive ensemâ€" ble â€" due no doubt to the presence of Joseph Peleg, the new concertâ€" master. Much credit is also due to David Miller who has worked with and shaped the orchestra into what is now a viable musical entity. ‘Cancer Society art raffle At 1 p.m. mayor Ann Mulvale will be on hand to draw for the winâ€" ners of four limited edition reproductions donated by Surroundings.
