Sabbath Well Spent— Duo’s Music Excellent By a Staff Writr < It was one of the most suc cessful concerts of the season Sunday afternoon when two lovelies, Frances Archer and Bev erley Gile, sang before an estima ted eight hundred persons in the , final event of the 1956-‘57 sea I son for the O’Neill Community Concert assaociation. Good musicianship, youth and glamour a’la Archer and Gile, combined with an unusual and rare repertoire of folk ballads from 14 countries, drew praise a plenty from those who heard and j saw. But their high point was re served for American folk music in the closing grouping. The fin al part included “The Fast Freight”, a railroad song; “Home on the Range”, a cinch for a sandhills audience, and “Lord, Lord, You’ve Been So Good to Me,” a Kentucky revival song which combined all the joy, re morse and earnestness of a color ed camp meeting. Overwhelming Appeal With Miss Archer, a blonde so prano occasionally operatic and Miss Gile, a red-haired contralto, providing much of the revival theme, Kentucky style, the "Lord, Lord" had overwhelming appeal. These young artists roved through the world and sang in 11 different languages. It was strictly an afternoon of folk mus ic and balads the world loves. Versatile musicianship is not ■ an adequate description of their j ability. Misses Archer and Gile, who both love music and love to sing tunes, collaborated their tal ents to bring to the audience a sense of their own love of music. These young artists, who make their own arrangement with great professional skill, thorough ly entertained. They educated the Europe First The concert included a musical journey through the British Isles ; as they sang of the Scotch, Irish and Welsh. This charming duo I portrayed the true feeling of the gypsy in “The Wraggle-Taggle Gypsies, O” (Elizabethan). Then to the continent of Eu rope and the two ladies, in per fect blend, sang the music of France, Germany, Italy and Spain. Among these was the ev erloved “Wiegenlied” (setting by Brahms). Jn singing the Hawaiian and Japanese folk songs, the beauti fully gowned and groomed young ladies who, definitely have a way with song, displayed crystalline voices and exceptional diction. The comely duo dedicated the last half of their concert to the music of America. They sang ol southern love, negro spirituals, and Kentucky mountain songs. There were three encores, in ► eluding another Kentucky revival ditty, and the audience emptied the big room in full agreement it had been a Sabbath afternoon well spent. F. E. Parkins, president of the O’Neill association, and John H. McCarville, director, said plans already are being laid for the 1957-‘58 concert season.
