The Glee C lub Once again, in spite of one unfortunate depletion in its past schedules, the Glee Club continued to go on its musically merry way, and was most active. The slack left by the omission of the Festival Concert was taken up, and three concerts were given, one at Christmas, one on Easter, and one in May! The Christmas Concert was augmented by a brass choir, hired to play a Fanfare,' by Buxtehude, and the Christmas Cantatal' by Daniel Pink- ham which we sang the spring before at the Festival. The full chorus also sang Adoramus Te and Cantate Domino, which was followed by In Natili Dominif' sung by the Girls' School. Mr. Griffin made his debut as he conducted the Boys' Glee Club in Veni Jesu Amor Mi and Three Kingsf' The full chorus sang two familiar carols and ended the concert with part of Bach's Cantata 129. The only disappointment of the evening was felt by the Centre Street Promenaders, frustrated by the heavy rain. Two later concerts were given on Good Friday and on Easter in the Chapel, instead of the defunct Festival. Sung by a small chorus from the Glee Clubs, they were composed of two Masses, Mass in the Fourth Tone by Vittoria and Gloria Mass by Vivaldi. This Easter Concert was very successful and will probably become an annual affair. In May, the combined Glee Clubs gave the Spring Concert. Part of the Vivaldi Mass, performed in the Easter Concert, was sung, as well as two selections from Randall Thompson's Alleluia, by the full Chorus. The Boys' Glee Club sang the third and fourth parts of the Testament of Freedom, based on the writings of Thomas Jefferson, the Coronation Scene from Boris Godunov and the first act of Patience by Gilbert and Sullivan finished the concert, and a most successful season.
