Two years ago this group formed the nucleus of a chamber music group of twenty-six members who play together primarily for their own aesthetic appreciation and enjoyment of chamber music. Since its inception they performed, along with the newly organized Illinois Choral Association, at a concert last November and as the nucleus of the. orchestra for "A German Requiem" by Johannes Brahms last March in Crystal Lake. They also api>eared last spring at the concert presented by Robert Wermuth, instrumental orchestral instructor in the Crystal Lake public grade and junior high schools, and his students. For the 8 o'clock program on Saturday, Feb. 27 in the Opera House, the Chamber Music Society will play "Suite for Flute and Strings in A Minor", by George P. Telemann. "Symphony No. 83" by Joseph Haydn, "A Fugal Concerto" Opus 40 No. 2 for Flute and Oboe by Gustav Hoist and "Rumanian Folk Dances" by Bela Bartok.
