CGNCORDIA All T ISTS The Concordia Artists series presented four programs for the 1950-51 season. Leonard Shure, pianist, appeared on November 20. In addition to his concert appearance, Mr. Shure conducted master classes in piano at the conservatory on the campus in November and again in April when he appeared as soloist with the Fargo-Moorhead Civic Orchestra. Vocalist Francis Yeend presented the series program on january 12. Her program was uncommonly well chosen. A judicial selection of opera arias, lieder, concert songs, and folksongs contained something for every taste. On February 26, the Pasquier Trio performed. The trio was composed of a violinist, a violist, and a cellist and was enjoyed by all. The Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Antal Dorati, presented the final program in the artists series for the season. This was Dorati's second year with the symphony. Dr. Wziyne Wagstroin managed the Concordia Artists Series and the students were admitted on presentation of their student activity tickets.
