Faculty Quartet
To Play Sunday
“Chacony,” the first number of
a program that the faculty string
quartet of the University will pre
sent at 3:30 Sunday afternoon in
th§ music school auditorium, was
composed between 1680 and
1683 by Purcell. Never published,
the selection was revived in 1909 by
the London chamber concert assoc
iation. Originally composed for
viols and restricted in compass, the
number is perfectly adapted for
performance by the modern string
quartet.
“Quartet in B flat (K. No. 4oo>
by Mozart, sometimes better
known as “The Hunt,” consisting of
“Allergo vivace assai,” Menuetto,”
“Adagio,” and “Allegro assai,”
make up the second portion of the
program. The third and final part,
"Quartet in A minor, Opus 29” by
Schubert, includes “Allegro ma non
trappe,” “Andante,” “Menuetto
Allegretto,” and “Allegro modera
to.”
Appealing in the quartet will be
Gearge Bough ton, assistant profes
sor of violin, and Mary Kapp All
ton, violins; Dr. Edmund Cykler,
associate professor of musicology,
viola; and Milton Dieterich, in
structor in music, violon cello.
