GLEE CLUB TO SING AT SYMPHONY HALL SUNDAY

Joint Concert With Radcliffe and the Symphony Orchestra Planned--Club Honored by Composers League

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Again combining with the Radcliffe Choral Society and the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the Harvard Glee Club will sing at Symphony Hall on Sunday afternoon.

The Glee Club and the Choral Society will give together "O Fons Bandusiae," a Horatian ode set to music by Randall Thompson '20, "John Brown's Song," by Delancy, the "Gesang der Parzen," from Opus 89 by Brahms, Beethoven's "Elegischer Gesang," from Opus 118, and "Nunist das Heil," from Bach's Cantata No. 50. The Glee Club alone will render "Two Choruses for Men's Voices," from Mozart's "Cantatas for the Freemasons," while Loefiller's "By the Waters of Babylon," will be sung by the Choral Society.

Club Honored

The Glee Club has just received a signal honor by being one of two organizations chosen to sing special works by living American composers. The scores have not yet been finished, but the League of Composers has commissioned several musicians to write them and the Glee Club will render its piece next year.
