The program to be sung by the
Slayton Tonnesoeans Saturday
night , March 14 , is made up of
old southern melodies such as
"Swing Low Chariot- , " ' \S\vanee
River1 "Close Yo' Eyes. " etc. ,
and an astonishing array of ex
cerpts from the widest known
grand operas. Notable among
thcso tro the sextette from Doni-l
zetti's " 'Lucia di Laramermoor , ' :
1 the duetto from the list act ( J
, "Rigoletlo , " by Verdi , tic
"Ocean Aria' " from "Oberon" b.\
\Veber , and numberless others ol
lke : merit. The mass in B Hat ,
"Quoiieurn Tu Scjlus" by Millard
is a rnagnificient chorus and is re
markably well sung by theTVnuc-
secans. This only gives you a
faint idea of what the concert will
be from a musical standpoint , but
when you know that this company
has over 200 of such numbers as
mentioned above you can form
some idea as to their ability. Only
one concert will be sung in Valen
tine.
