Cbonu of 600 The Festival chorus, 600 voices strong, will supply a splendid climax to the concert by singing a scene and the Finale from "The M o u n t of Olives," Beethoven's only cantata. This selection concludes with the great "Hallelujah," chorus. It will be seen that this program is both interesting and varied, as well as being exceptionally high class. The Stravinsky composition caused quite a flurry when it first appeared because of its unusual features. The feeling against it, which was shown in some quarters for a time, has now disappeared, so that it has become one of the most popular of orchestral selections. Taken as a whole, the concert is certain to bring the series to an enthusiastic close. LECTURES ON EUROPE Ralph B.
