Wil. 320-321 WILMETTE Sing on North Shore March 25 varied gram of standard male choruses, in- With an attractively pro- strumental and vocal solos and or- chestral and special features, the Ri- pon college Glee club will invade Wilmette for an appearance on March 25 at the Wilmette Parish Methodist church under the auspices of the Young Women's Missionary society. The quality and interest of the selec- tions is quite out of the ordinary, it is said, and the diversified program is certain to meet with the aproval of the most critical and fastidious mu- sic lover. The opening number on the pro- gram is the "Pilgrim's Chorus" from "Tannhauser" by Richard Wagner. The concert program is delightfully and cleverly interspersed with a group of selections of a less serious strain. including "Rolling Down to Rio" by Edward German, "My Little Banjo" by William Dichmont, and "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" as impressively rendered by a special double male quartet. The first part of the program which consists of three parts, will include instrumental solos by Alvin Brooks, sophomore pianist and winner of sec- ond place in the Wisconsin Musical Tournament at Madison two years ago. Joseph Liska is a violinist of rare ability, while James Hudson is a pleasing clarinetist of more than ordinary ability. These musicians ap- instru- pear on the program as an mental trio in addition to the solo numbers. One of the most effective selections is Veight's "Mother Love" sung by the Glee club. The third part of the program opens with a series of popular orchestral selections and pieces with special features by the club soloists. All in all, everyone is certain to find some- thing of interest in the program pre- sented by the warblers from Ripon.
