Splendid Concert By NEW SWEDISH THANS-OCEAN LINER ISLAND EXPLORATION
Choral Society
An extremely pleasant and varied concert was given last night at the Empire Theatre by the Crescendo Choral Society under its President and Conductor, Professor Chao Mei-Pa. The Crescendo Chorus itself gave Mozart's Twelfth Mass, which took up the second part of the concert. The first consisted of a group of Madrigals, a Sonata for Flute and Piano, and items by the St Stephen's Girls' Choir.
They were: Miavel The Hoogkong Singers Mad-, Choo. rigals Group, trained and led by Winnie Wei and Mary Cheung Dr Ride, gave four beautifully soprano; Diana Ho and Christina Messrs.
