The recital will be held in St. John's United Church with a seat- ing capacity of 450 people. In a community of this size, embrac- ing the town of 6,000 people and another two or three thousand in the surrounding township, I would hardly think it is too much to expect that the church would be packed, that is if the people are interested in a Choral Society. That was the basis on which the Society was founded, people being interested. Care has been taken to try and submit a programme by the 50 or 60 voice choir which will be of interest to all tastes in music, except jazz or be-bop. In the sacred field there will be "Judge 'Me O God," by Mendel- ssohn which is sung in 8 parts in the second portion. Handel's "For Unto Us A Child is Born," could probably be called a little late in the season, because it is usually sung at Christmas time but it is never-the-less a splendid example of choral work: The "Prayer from Hansael and Gretel" is always well received as is "The Lost Chord" of Sullivan which is giv- en by request. In the lighter vein but inter- esting is "The Gypsy Laughing Chorus" and "Rolling Down to Rio" both in the first part of the programmme. Starting the second part of the programme, the choir. sings ,.Ar- tists Life" by Strauss and finish- es with a rousing Russian dance number called "Russian Picnic' by Enders. In between the ladies voices sing "Tea For Two. from #No, No, Nanette" and the male voices sing the 'Comrades Song of Hope. Our assisting artist will bes. Eketorp, a 'flautist who will con- tribute to both portions of the programme. Mr. Eketrop is a other century there was another Ptolemy with a surname Auletes which is said to mean "flute lov- er" showing his fondness for that instrument. The flute remained popular through the ages, through the Ro- man into Europe where we can find it mentioned by Shakespeare in "Hamlet" Ancther royal de- votee was Frederick the Great. While still Crown Prince in 1728 he heard the famous flute player, Quantz at Berlin and he arrang- ed to have Quantz visit him per- fodically and teach him how to play. The old king, Frederick, did not care much for art of any kind and once threatened that if the lessons were not stopped he would break the flute over his son's head and hang Quantz. On one occas- lon Quant crawled up a chimney to escape the old king. When the prince, became king he made Quantz the court com- poser and became véry accomp- lished himself, both as a flautist and a composer. I understand that Mr. Eketorp will play one of Frederick the Great's composition for flute besides a concerto by Handel. It will be an interesting con- cert, one which a lot of voluntary effort by everybody concerned has been put forth, primarily as a service to the cultrual element of the community in which we. live.
