Marvin Soward, Gerre
Hancock Concert
Receives Much Praise
The city of Heppner was favor
ed last week with one of the
finest programs of any concert
season anywhere. Marvin Soward,
tenor, and" Gerre Hancock, his organist-pianist
accompanist, cap
tured and held an audience of
some 200 people. The concert was
apparently a higher quality tnan
the audience had anticipated.
Mr. Soward possesses a . rare
natural tenor voice of beautiful
quality with an extensive vocal
range. His diction was faultless
and his tones were clear and un-'
inhibited throughout the pro-,
gram. I
Mr .Hancock showed equally
well as a solo,st and an accom
panist. Distinctive musicianship,
plus his tempered mastery of
both keyboards, was outstanding.;
The f.rst part of the program
consisted of religious songs'
ranging from the ever popular
Maiotte's "Lord's Prayer" and
Adams' "The Holy City", to "In
Native Worth", the great aira
from Haydn's oratorio, "The
Creation". j
After intermission, Mr. Hancock
played Bach and Langlais with
the knack of a virtuoso. The
rest of the program consisted of
early English songs and more
modern American songs of a
secular nature. I
