educational College saw the performance of a choir of more than 100 voices in a varied programme, ranging from folk song and spirituals to selections from Handel's Messiah.

The choir, made up of singers and teachers of singing from many schools all over Hongkong, was conducted by the world- known choral conductor Jonn Finley Williamson, a visitor to the Colony, and the founder of the Westminster Choir (U.S. not U.K.).

To assemble choir of 140 voices in Hongkong Is prodigious task at any time, bui to be able to do so in a short space of line, and to perform Fubilety in

creditable #VITY way, with only four rehearsals, Js nothing short of miraculous.

That this did in fact occur is due entirely to the stimulating prosence of Dr Williamson, and to the untiring efforts of the Hon. Organisers, Miss Maple Quon and Mrs Leatrice Lee, who neted on behalf of the Music Society, the impresario organisation under whose cuspices Dr Williamson conduct- ed this series of seminars,

There was no doubt that the mnic section of the choir was better than its female counter- part. The female volees were, in the Irat half unable to reach the higher registers with case, and when they did were unable to sustain them, Occasionally there was difficulty in Intonation and some raggedness was evident in "Gloria from the 12th Mass.
