Copyright IM1, Lkutt I Mrtu Tvauc C- Under Westbrook Direction University Singers Present Successful Carol Concert ... In Union Sunday By Dieter Kober. Annual presentation of Christ mas Carols by the University Singers has not only become tra ditional by its establishing a true Christmas atmosphere and spirit, but also thru an exhibition of a guest at the meeting of the charm school sponsored by the Coed Counselors Tuesday night from 7 p. m. to 8 at Eljen Smith. Prominent Consideration represented with works in current art exhibitions over the country. Sculpture Instructor Thealtus Alberts' "Pegasus," a red terra cotta figure, is in the tenth anni versary exhibition of the Syracuse, N. Y., museum of fine arts. The recent National Art week exhibition in Washington, D. C, invited works from Nebraska which included paintings and prints by Miss Faulkner and Pro fessor Kirsch. J. Richard Sorby, Miss Faulkner, and Kirsch have several pieces each in the field of oil pointings, water colors, prints and drawings in the tenth anniversary six states exhibit at Joslyn Memorial in Omaha. Tune in the Christmas Spirit It's Chetterfield Pleosure Time Enjoy th s music that everybody likes N. B. C Stations . this i Milder Better-Tasting ...thats a es superior voice blending and gen eral quality ot cnorai singing as such. Sunday afternoon's concert in the Union provod again that under the able d rection of Dr. Arthur E. Westbrook, director of the school of fine arts, the group of some fifty singers can offer a musical achievement highly en- -joyable to the most severe critic. Of the twenty carols performed each one had its particular attrac tion or point of interest, as Dr. Westbrook chose a wide variety of Christmas songs from all over the world. The effect of the pre cision of the group under the per fect control of the conductor was indeed refreshing; this was par ticularly apparent in the carols by Palestrina and in the Bohemian and French folk songs. Extremely well done was the better known English carol: "The First Noel." Many of the carols had solo parts which were very well, sung by various members of the choir. . The program closed with a traditional melody from Hayti, one of the most beautiful numbers of the afternoon, ex tremely adequate for the conclu sion of the group. Two brass quartets helped to establish a Christmas mood by introducing the concert with Christmas chorals. Miss Lela Lyne assisted as organist. why rfield
