THE DAILY COOS BAY TIMES, MARSHFIELD, OREGON, TUESDAY, JUNE 9, 1908.
IE MESSIAH
JUNE H-I8
Oratorio Will Be Presented at
Odd Fellows Hall By Coos
Bay Talent.
The date for the grand concert at
which Handel's Oratorio of "The
Messiah" Is to be presented, has been
Bet for June 17th and ISth. The
Odd Fellows hall will bo decorated
for the occasion, and a number of
boxes will be provided.
The people of Coos Bay are extre
mely fortunate In having the oppor
tunity of hearing a great musical
composition of this character, a pro
duction of such magnitude and dif
ficulty as to render Its presentation
in any but large cities and centers
of musical culture very infrequent.
Much Interest attaches to this
event from the fact that, among the
local singers several excellent voices
for oratorio work have beei discover
ed, and having been coached by the
director, Professor Elmer A. Todd,
will bo heard in solo parts. Both
Marshflcld and North Bend will be
represented among the soloists.
Besides the local talent, Miss Ma
bel Mlllls, a fine contralto of wide
musical culture and reputation, who
has been studying In the Cornell
University School of Music, will be
heard.
Mendelssohn's Concerto In G
Minor, In three movements the lar
gest form of composition for the
piano will be given by Mrs. William
Horsfall. The orchestral parts for
the concerto have been arranged for
the organ and will bo played by
Professor Todd.
One number upon the program
which is expected to be especially
pleasing will bo the song "Coos Bay,"
the words by Attorney Francis H.
Clarke and the music by Professor
Elmer A. Todd, which will bo sung
by the chorus of fifty voices as the
final number. It Is predicted by those
who have heard It, that this song
will bo a big popular success.
Beautiful souvenir programs,
printed In three colors on cardboard
covers, have been prepared, in which
will appear the full libretto of all the
sclos and choruses to be sung, the
names of the soloists and of the mem
bers of the chorus, and the words
and music of the "Coos Bay Song."
Tickets are now on sale by stud
ents of the Marshfleld High School,
and at the Lockhart-Parsons Phar
macy, where seat reservations can bo
made after 10 o'clock in the forenoon
of Thursday, Juno 11th.
The proceeds of the concert are for
the Public Library fund.
