THE CHOIR THIS year, the special choir, under the expert guidance of Dr. Herbert, has been a great success. His varied choice of music has given us an interesting and enjoyable time. Through good attendance on Wednesday afternoons and Friday mornings, we hope to present a Spring Concert which will be as suc- cessful as the Carol Concert at Christmas. We are indebted to Dr. Herbert for his patience, hard work, and talented direction of our efforts. Especially since this has been Dr. Herbert ' s last year at Trafalgar, we hope that the choir has given him as much pleasure as he has given us. The choir will greatly miss him, as will the entire School. We have been fortunate to have sung under such a well-known and able director. Jeanie Macleod Veronica Focke Choir Secretaries YOUNG PEOPLE ' S CONCERTS TRAFALGARIANS proved themselves avid music lovers as they attended the Young People ' s Concerts for the third consecutive year. These programmes were presented by the Montreal Symphony Orchestra at Place des Arts and provided four informative Wednesday afternoons. Pierre Hetu, as host conductor, wittily led us through the four sections of the orchestra; the woodwinds, strings, percussion and brass all having their turn in the spotlight. Even for those dead set against culture, these short concerts offered an excellent introduction to classical composers, and were specially prepared for normal and high school students. M. Hetu explained the function of his orchestra in simple terms, so that each composer ' s selection could be fully appreciated. We were given a taste of many classic artists, from Dragonetti to Tchaikovsky. For the keen music lovers, the Junior Committee of the Montreal Symphony sponsored a Music-Art Contest, to be judged by Dr. Arthur Lismer. JUNIOR RED CROSS R is for the REPS: Pauli, Maureen, and Barb. E is for EFFORT: the kids worked so hard. D is for DONATIONS: at Christmas time, behold! C is for the CANDY and CALENDARS we sold. R is for the REGRET: that Mrs. Pollak moved. O is for ODD: all the animals that were boohed. S is for SIGNING: of questionable merits. S is for SPIRIT: it ' s up to you to carry it. [9]
