Vibrant element of music provided by Band Choir The Band and the Girls, Choir add the vital ele- ment of music to the curriculum at Gabriels. Besides providing enjoyment, they seek to develop and nour- ish the musical talents of the students in these organizations. The Girls' Choir, under the skilled direction of Miss Ursula Klein, has concentrated their studies on various types of choral literature. Modern com- posers as well as the classics have been studied. Op- portunities to expand their musical appreciation were provided, such as a trip to attend a professional con- cert in Detroit. The pounding beat of the band's rendition of 4'Spanish Flea and uMame sets the mood for many student body activities. Under the direction of Brother Jeffery, the band has been given the pep'7 so vitally needed.
