Mr. Werner also related that Haendel had written all twelve concertos in Opus 6 in one month. Speaking of "Kol Nidre" by Bruch, Mr. Werner said it is an epic cantata, a form which was popular when it was performed first in 1388. It was written for chorus, solos and orchestra. In this, Bruch takes a part of a Hebraic chanted prayer pre dat ing Moses, and using a free style, introduces some of his own material. He develops this as a whole into a composition that is rich harmonically and rtchly orchestrated. In the "Peer Gynt Suite No. 1" by Grieg, the music is one of two suites Grieg arranged from the music written to accompany a play written by Ibsen. This consists of four movements, each depicting a different scene from the play. The first is "Morning," second "Ase's Death," the third movement depicts "Anitra's Dance" and the last movement is "In the Hall of the Mountain King." This composition demonstrates Grieg's distinctly individualistic style. The .last movement takes a single phrase and develops that throughout the movement in such a way as to render the rep etitive notes seemingly non-repetitious. The last number on the pro gram will be "Finlandia,' a tone poem by Jean Sibelius. This High school auditorium. The composer Mr. Werner said, is 91 ! concert is set for 3 o'clock.

In Winston-Salem, North Caro lina, Mrs. Bazett played in the - sfet box H associated with nationalistic mu sic of Finland. This was written I originally as one number in a ! series called "Tableaux of the ; Past." j This work opens with a ques : tioning phrase, propounded by the brasses. The strings, in an swer, sing in a passage as if offering a prayer. On this ma terial the music dwells briefly before reaching a somber pro nouncement sung by the lower strings to the accompaniment of pulsating brasses. This is suc ceeded by a triumphantly mar tial passage; and from here the music progresses to a climax of crashing intensity. I 8- Norma Bazett.
