Music Department All the techniques leading to pianistic perfection are stressed from the beginning of a student's experience in the Piano Depart- ment. Besides the individual les- sons, opportunities are given for class performance with student cri- ticism, which, together with re- cordings tend to develop discrimi- nating listening and deliberate playing. Several studio recitals are given each year, but the musical climax is reached in the spring with the six-piano ensemble recitals in the school auditorium. Top-Sister Rosemary makes a recording of Ruth Heupler's performance. Marjorie Angel, Carroll First, and Joan Wohleber look on.

Whether it be a wood carv- ing, imported glass, creative ceramic, metal enamel, sculpture or painting-the quizzers like it, and admit that they learn a lot. The Choir of Our Lady of Mercy Academy is composed of sophomore, junior, and senior students who volunteer time and abilities to the presenta- tion of musical programs. Projects for this year included the singing of an Alumnae Association Mass for deceased members and faculty, the pre- sentation of a modern miracle play, A Mystery for Christmas, and participation in a diocesan program in Antonian Hall. A spring concert concluded the Choir's activities for the term. . a . ,sa K ,.,, 3' YI , I -lf
