This form of expression has never lost its savor and appeal. Under the able direction of Sister Mary Seraphica, young people, imbued with a love of fine music, join together in chorus, both to satisfy their own yearning for mu- sical expression, and to entertain others with their fine interpretations of spiritual, classical, and popular melodies.
