Let All lj Life Be Music The Festival was spectacular in sight and sound. When the curtains were pulled back for the first group of numbers, one could almost feel the thrill that ran through the audience at the sight of 275 white-garbed singers banked on the seats at thc east end of the pavilion and, in the foreground, 150 young musicians ready for the lift of a conductors baton. Then, at the finish. there was an even greater spectacle when all the 500 students joined in Wagncfs Pilgrims Chorus, the choirs, the bands, and the orchestras. BILL DOUDNA Wisconsin Stuff lozzrnul IXIPRESSIVE with its massed choir, orchestra, and band, the first annual Music Festival provided for Madison an event of community significanceg for music students, an opportunity to produce. Instead of participating in the regular regional tournaments, the three public high schools combined talent to create a spectacle of majestic proportions. The sectional photograph at the left was taken to symbolize the vast pageantry in which a cappella participates. Christmas brings the traditional carolling in the halls of the oldest high school in the city. Old English songs, French Noels, and German songs echoed to every corner. The holiday season also means the loveliest of all school functions, the Nativity pageant in the State Capitol. This is a choral show. A Cappella music by the main and antiphonal choirs against a background of colorful tableaux brings the community the greatest thrill of the season. A spring concert marked an all-school musical function when organizations from both junior and senior schools sang and played to an auditorium Filled with friends and parents. No selections of the festival were repeated, this situation indicating the size of the repertoire. 'AI didn't think clarinets could play so fast,', cried a wee junior high-er Watching in admiration the senior instrumentalist's nimble lingers. To create interest in these organizations both for pupils and parents as well as presenting an enjoyable pro- gram is the aim of such an event, explains Mr. Klose, director. FIVE
