The Christmas carol service at First Presbyterian church Sunday after noon, December 28, will unquestion ably be one of the outstanding musi cal events of the year. If It were not to be such a joyfully impressive occasion, It would really call for the circus type of advertis ing: 500—Singers, Count ’Em—500. The singers, of whom there will be at least 500, will be the members of 27 church choirs of Omaha and Coun cil Bluffs. The size of the chorus would alone make the service a strik ingly Impressive event, but the effect will be heightened by the dramatic entrance of the singers. The long column of carollers wljl march down the central aisle In the processional, doubling back to fill seats In the balconies. Two hymns will be sung during the processional. The tremendous size of the chorus will permit the use of many effective devices. Antlfehonal singing on a scale that has seldom been heard In Omaha and the singing of solo num bers by entire choirs will be partic ularly striking. The chorus will be supported by the organ and by a stringed orches tra of II pieces, under the direction of Louise Shadduck Zabriskle. The service Is to be presented by the Nebraska chapter of the Amer ican (fulld of Organists, and is under the direction of Ben Stanley and J. H. Simms, organists and choirmas ters of Trinity cathedral and All Saints' Episcopal church. Plans of admission have been * changed somewhat, and no admission cards will be Issued. The doors ot the church will be opened at 8 p. m., and no seats will be reserved. -« The Haydn chorus has won a per manent place among the more impor tant musical organizations of Omaha through Its presentation of Handel’s "The Messiah" at First Methodist church last Thursday night. The greatest oratorio In the world, so often presented by Inadequate church choirs, directed by incompe tent leaders and supported by Insuf ficient Instruments, Is frequently a very dismal affair. Handel would probably consider himself libeled If he were te hear the average presenta tion. None of these faults’were present in the Haydn chorus’ production. The choir waa adequate, well drilled and the instruments (jave all necessary support. J. Edward Carnal, who assembled end trained the chorus, has apparent ly Inspired the singers with some of his own sympathy for Handel's music. Since all members of the chorus are amateurs, singing only for the pleas ure of making musts, he had excellent material to work with. The chorus excelled In those choruses which called for real Interpretative ability. The four soloists, Mra AJtlnaa Tul lis, Mrs. Helen M. Turley, Reuben M. Walt and E. C. Boehmer, all soloists of Lincoln churches, sang the arias with exquisite feeling. Mrs. Turley, particularly, added greatly to the m pleasure of the evening with her so los. She has a contralto voice of un usual flexibility and with entrancing tone color. The West sisters' string quartet, with Mrs. R. E. Davis at the organ and Miss Elizabeth Carnal at th* piano, played with the utmost sym pathy. This production, the first which has been given by the Haydn chorus, should Insure the permanency of the organization. There le a plqce In Omaha for a chorus which will devote Itself exclusively to the production of oratorios and other forms of sacred music, and It seems certain that lov ers of this type of music will support the chorus. The music department of the Oma ha Woman's club will present Its regular monthly musicals at 2 p. m. Wednesday at the Y. JY. C. A. audi torium. following a luncheon at the Y. W. C. A. at 1 p. m. The program Is to be under the direction of Florence Basler Palmer, department leader, and Melina E. 1. ken, associate leader. The muslcale 1* open to the public.

As a maker of programs for popu lar recitals, Karl E. Tunberg, pianist, can take his place with the best. He has an uncanny gift for knowing what the public doesn't want and for leaving it out of his programs. His program for the recital he Is to give at the Elks club at 8:15 p. m. Tuesday for the benefit of the Elks "Kiddle Camp" fund Includes only one “heavy" number, (Which Is a Beethoven sonata, op. 57. He has even been so considerate as to place this at the very top of the program, so that It will not disturb late comers who like the classics only on their shelves. The program contains excellent music, however, and American and English composers are well represent ed. The most Interesting number, probably, will be the American Indian Rhapaody by Lleurance-Orem. It Is based on 10 Indian themes and melo dies. Another number of interest be cause of its authorship will be the Melody In A, written by Gen. Charles B. Dawes, vie# president elect. The program follows: Sonata, Opus IT..Beethoven Four Fenteelee . Moaxkowakl Poor Gynt 8ulto ito. t.Grlox Impromptu . Strleklend Pcherio . MrFsydrn American Indian Rhapoody. . Lleuranee-Orom From an Indian Lode#.Moo Do well Melody in A.Dawra Two Preludoe . Chopin Noetumo In C oharp minor.Chopin Four Etudes .Chopin While on the subject of General Dawes' melody, it is related that It recently blew up another of the perennial storme which hover per petually near the Philadelphia Sym phony orchestra. The storm raged for two weeks, and only subsided after General Dawes rode safely Into office. Leopold Stokowski, the jesting con ductor, Introduced the Innocent look ing composition in the orchestra's program for a concert late in Oc tober. He Injected political thunder Into It by an Introductory speech which he apparently made with his tongue In his cheek. He ended by expreeslng the hope that a candidate who could write such music would be elected. "When he raised his baton the audi ence was divided Into those for snd against. Those against made the greater uproar, naturally, and carried the argument Into the newspapere. Mr. Stokowski was accused of every thing from conspiracy to downright bad taste. And did he spologtze? He wouldn't be Stokowski If he had. He said, in effect, that the objector* were craxy.
