Each year the number of sing ers in madrigal differs. There are now 23 members. Madrigal singers recei no academic credit; their singing is purely for enjoyment. Madrigal singing necessitates a wide interpretation viewpoint, al most like a string quartet, with tones and voices pure and clean. The slightest amount of careless singing on the part of one person detracts from the quality of the group as a whole. Members are chosen for their nbility to follow directing, their tonal qualities, and their accuracy at hitting the right note all the time. No laxity is permitted among the members of this group. Madrigal singing began centur ies ago in Europe. Guests would dine at a friend's castle and fol lowing the meal, would sit at the table and sing songs for hours at a time. The host for the evening had the privilege of directing the after-dinner sineine. Madrigal singing reached its 0s, f'-Vr t i Coiirtmy Lincoln Slnr ground-breaking ceremonies for the $1,500,000 Nebraska Psychia tric Institute at the University College of Medicine. Chancellor R. G.
