Dancing Class

Five groups of school children were seen in the dancing classes for grades 1-4, which were ad- judicated by Miss Felice Arsenault

Three of these were groups of four who danced 2. Highland Reel in full costume. and two: were groups of twelve who danced the reel, "Jennie Crack Oorn."

Highest man: was awarded the Parkdalo School dancers for their fine dancing of ”Jennie." the long routine of which they accomplish ed without a mistake. M-iss Arson- ault suggested it might be a good idea in future to let the younger grades dance by themselves in order that the older ones might do steps a little more intricate.

Biggest Class

Little Miss Margaret Murray. Kensington. was the winner of the largest class in, this year's festival when she was awarded 85 marks for her singing of ”New Shoes" in the competition for girls, 11 years

and under. at P. W. 0. in the morning. ,

Seventy children competed in this class. and adjudicator, Mr.

Reginald Geen complimented many of the entrants on their purity of tone, and urged them not to try to push their voices, He also sug- gested they concentrate on breath- ing as one of the greatest aids to good singing.

The first class to be heard was for boy's solo, 12 years and under. with Vernon Smith of Trscadie Cross taking first place.

Mr. Clayton Hare adjudicated the morning session at the Community Centre, with only two classes com-I peting. The first of these, girl's solo. 7 years and under, was won by Miss Nancy Thompson of North Milton. who was one point ahead of her nearest competitor. and re- ceived the high mark of 85.

In the second class, piano solo. it) years and under. three young ladies were awarded the first three places. led by Miss Suzanne Shaw of Charlottetown.

Original Composition-

Three original compositions. two piano and one vocal, were perform- ed yesterday afternoon at. the Com- munity Centre.

Colin MacAusland's piano com- position "Evening Echoes in Mea- dowland" Mr. Hare described as a beautiful little piece. and said he thought the composer had quite a gift for composition.

Willlsm Murchison performed his "Homage to Robert Browning" in the professional division in this class. The adjudicator said that he found the piece most interesting. full of the composer's tempera- ment. with much to recommend it. and that he felt a fertile musical mind had produced it. He advised the composer to strive for more or- iginality. -

Eugene Donahue of Cornwall sang a. very pleasing original setting of a Shakespearian song. which Mr. Hare said he thought would be well-received in any concert ball, and described Master Donahue as being "a talented composer."

A' vocal solo class for boys 10 years and under and a. piano class, nine years and under, completed the afternoon session at the Com- munity Centre. Mr. Hare awarded first place in the vocal solo class for a sweet. musical rendition of "Healthy. Wealthy and Wtse" to F-Vi'.Vn Phillips of summerslde. while second and third places went to Blair Wood and Ronald Machine respectively. ,

In the piano solo. "The Fisher- maiden's Song." first place was awarded to Diana Rodd. who was complimented by the adjudicator for introducing more melodic vari- ation into the piece than the other performers. Margaret Mac- Intyre and Carole Ann Michael won second place honours and David Large and Frances Ann Cul- len third. Mr. Hare advised all the Derformers to try to achieve a more singing. lyrical effect with the right hand and to stress the legato.

school choruses

H . in the classes for school choruses at P.W.C. in the after- noon were well divided with high- est marks golng to st. Vincent); Orphansgekin the class for grades 6-10, East Royalty school for grades 1 to 5, and Glenaladals school. all grades.

In his comments, Mr. negmuq Geen spoke of the melodious line and sweet tone used. and compllm. ented some of the choirs in class 83 on their very nice alto section. He stated many of the competitors had very good diction and that a lot of preparation had been done by the groups on the test pieces.

He stressed the importance of good intonation and the intelligent interpretation of the music to the entrants in class 87. also the mess. slty of all children -watching their director at all times. Don't aim for volume." he said. "Aim for quality and sweetness."

The test piece in class ll! had a nice flowing lift. and although gum easy to sing relied cults a lot on sood balance. Mr. Geen told the competitors to strive to have all voices blend with one one partic- ular voice predominant.

no stated the aooonsplistunont of being able to sight read quickly was one of the most important factors in a musical career. but osllodfsragsoatdoalofpraotioo.

Thus classes were .hsld in sight reading with only one entry in each, all competitosu being from the Murray River School. Top marks in those classes were award- ed to grades 8-8 who received 80 points.

Ch.oral clinics For the "me time in the seven-

of Music. choral clinics were held last evehlng at P. W. C., when Mr. Geen took thirty-six membe . or various City choirs and experiment- ed with them:

He first took the well known "Brother James Air" and explain- ed how he would like it to be sung. and then, acting as accompanist and director. took each part sep- aralely. He stressed the great im- portanco of phrasing and stopped the choir s. number of times when he noticed breaths being taken in the wrong place.

After working for a short time on this anthem he introduced an original melody by Mr. W.l-L Rog- ers. Charlottetown. to the poem "Lightly stepped a. Yellow star". by Emile Dickinson. He used the same preparatory method with this selection until finally the choir wss asked to rise and sing it through. .

At the conclusion of this num- ber Mr. Geen complimented the members of the chair on their resdy response to his suggestions, and then introduced the composer. who had been a member of the bass section, to the audience.

ltursl Clinlo

Rev. L.M. Murray, of the United Church. Kenslngton. then took over the rural choral clinic which was composed of thirty-six singers from various parts of the Province.

Chosen for this group were two well known and beautiful hymns, "Guide Me. Oh Thou Great Jeho- vah." and "Saviour Now The Day Is Ending." Rev. Murray spent most of his preparatory time in outlin- ing the phrasing of these two hymns, and also stopped his choir from time to time to correct meth- ods of attack.

Church Choirs

In keeping with the clinic. nine rural church choirs were heard ear- lier in the evening in two classes. one for mixed voices. tour Dart. and the other in unison. Mr. Geen con- gratulated t.he choirs in the first class on their choice. of beautiful and simple hymns as their test pieces. and said that so many con- gregations and choirs did not sing hymns at all intelligently.

He gave a. couple of highly en- tertainlng illustrations as to how words of a hymn could be mis- understood if the phrasing was in- correct. Commenting on the per- formance ot the winner in this class, New Glasgow and Hunter River Choir. he said their singing was very sincere and the diction quite good.

Mr. l-fare adjudicated the second -class and also stressed the import- ance of good diction and sincerity in the interpretation. He continued by telling the choirs of the import- ance of music in a church service. and said he had often been told that a sincere and intelligent mu- slcal selection was as uplifting as a. sermon.

Of the five choirs competing in this class highest marks were awarded to the Cherry Valley United Chair. Mr Hare said this choir had a, nice feeling of fervor and intensity and good articula- tion.

By a special request, Mr. w.K. Rogers, who had been unable to appear in the operatic class, male voice, the evening before, because of participation as a director at another hall, was ltfvited to sing his operatic aria for adjudication.

Mr. Geen complimented him on his very pleasing light barstone voice and musical ability, and said his voice was developing along the correct lines.
