Tuesday Night
BY HARRIET MOSS
The large audience was in the
hand.- of the artists during the
successful presentation of Handel's  "Messiah"  Tuesday  night.
The success of tho performance was due not only to the
well-trained voices of the experienced soloists but to the
forceful voices of the Festival
Choi us accompanied by the
Festival  Orchestra  and  pianist.
The deep, powerful voice of
Dr. Ralph Appelman. the
smooth, mellow voice of Millard Cates. the soft, velvety
voice of Mary Ellen Honkel.
and the high, piercing voice of
Lucille Haynes. in combination
with the poise and voice con-
tinl displayed by all. contributed to the effectiveness of the
performance.
The experienced and talented
hand.- of pianist Nancy Rivard
never faltered during the entire
'Messiah "
Providing the connecting element between Ihe soloists were
I lie l!.ii) well-btended voices of
the I*'i -tival Chorus. Excellent
aii ompaiiniient was provided
lor the chorus by the Festival
Orche-lia with Mrs. Marcia
Palmer, Larzelere Hall house
director, playing violin, serving
skillfullv  as concertmistrcss.
Don Warnaar added variety
with his trumpet accompany-
menl (or Dr. Appelman.
The smooth character of the
pel fm mance was due to the superb direction fo Dr. Eugent F.
Grove.
The singing of "Hallelujah"
while the audience stood created an effective closing to this
impressive presentation of the
•'Messiah."
