Choral Union Comes Thru
With A Brilliant 'Elijah9
By SAM WARREN
Another sDiine has sppn a
compelling oratorio performance,

of Elijah a vivid one.
ResDonsible in a la

cially noteworthy was his ability
10 sing in recitative style so that
the convention peculiar to oratorio
and opera was not artificial but
natural and beautiful.
Well Received
Equally well reeeivoH was so

Ye Israel" was a highlight of the
production; every moment of her.
singing was a revelation. Her
beautiful dramatic soprano would
make any impressario ecstatic.

recitatives established Miss Ber

two great alto airs "Woe Unto

Hanson Soloes
Mr. Hanson, who hab soloed In
several Choral Union presenta

vantage to date. An always-cor
rect tone placement characterized
his singing and the high "A" of
the favorite air, "If With All Your
Hearts," was no exception.
When Joyce Stuve. only student
soloist, singing the part of the
youth from within the rows of
choristers, first tossed off "No,
there is nothing ..." two-thirds
of the way thru the necessarily
long program, the main body of
the audience looked up with a
start, for Miss Stuve possesses a
brilliant lyric-soprano.
