Violin- Handel Sonata No. 4 - Evelyn Neal. The prominent numbers present- ed will be selections from Tann- haeuser by the Orchestra and the finale, Forever Free sung by the Senior Glee Club. Then, too, there is to be the beautiful Hear My Prayer, O Lord sung by the Glee Club, and Irish Lullaby sung by the Girls' Chorus. Concert Over- ture in G minor will be played by the Band. The Collegiate abounds with talent in the musical field, and this annual presentation proves this to be no idle statement. The Festival is predestined to be a success and much credit is due to Mr. Paul Berg, conductor of Or- chestra, Band and Glee Club, to Miss Helen Nairn, conductor of Girls' Chorus, and to Mr. Harvey Class, faculty sponsor. Our hats are off to these, the Big Three in Collegiate music, and we thank all those students in the various groups for their splendid co-opera- tion. Agn. Guest Artists DoLoREs S1MPsoN. A XII D The students of K.C.I. have been very fortunate in that we have had such excellent artists at our assem- blies. Mr. Keith Staebler and Mr. Paul Berg, our first artists, gave us an excellent duet rendition of George Gershwin's famous classical-jazz composition, Rhapsody In Blue on the piano and organ. We are always glad to welcome back our graduates, and we were particularly glad to hear Doug. Frank play Addinsell's Warsaw Concerto for us. After a very successful perform- ance with the Kitchener Philhar- monic Orchestra, Miss Ada Eby played the first movement of Grieg's Piano Concerto In A Minor . Mr. Glenn Kruspe played THE GRUMBLER 45
