CHOIR it This year,s Concert Choir, under the direction of Mr. Mark Dubbs, who is new to Lansdowne, has brought considerable recognition to our school. A concert of sacred Christmas music was presented at St. Maryys Seminary College on December 20. Selections varied from fairly modern compositions to those of the early Renais- sance. The highlight of the Choir,s year was an invitation to the Music Educators Na- tional Convention in Atlantic City, New jersey on February 27. This was indeed an honor for Lansdowne, since the Choir was representing the entire state of Mary- land. The climax of the performance was ,The Cherubic Hymni' by Howard Han- son, which was performed with the Lower Merion High School Symphonette from Ardmore, Penns lvania. On April 20, the Choir traveled to Dal- lastown High School in Pennsylvania for an exchange program with their choir. DA return visit was made to Lansdowne by the Dallastown choir on April 26th.
