Rosamond Johnson and Taylor Gordon to Offer Program of Old Plantation Melodies Tonight

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

An unusual musical entertainment is to take place tonight at 8 o'clock at the Harvard Union, when Rosamond Johnson and Taylor Gordon present a program of Negro spirituals.

Gordon and Johnson for many years have been among the most popular interpreters of these plaintive melodies which are so much in favor at the present time, and their repertoire, which has been entirely arranged by Johnson, contains many familiar songs. The program follows:

Gimme Yo Han'

Scandalize my Name

O, My Good Lord, Show De Way Jubilee

My Lord Say's He's gwineer Rain Down Fire

Walk in Jerusalem Jus' like John

Were You There When They Crucified My Lord

Sunday Mornin' Band

To See God's Bleedin' Lam

Joshua Fit de Battle O' Jericho

African Drum Dance

Hallelujah

Little David Play on Yo' Harp

Peter on de Sea Sea Sea Sea

Stan' Still Jordan

Witness for my Lord
