Wheatley Glee Club
Presents Colorful Recital
Speaking of music and its charm, Malotte.

"And the night shall be filled I,” a dramatization of the highest
point of the song taken from the
well known poet put it this way—
rith music
And the cares that infest the play “Eileen,” featuring Peggy
ay
Shall fold their tents like the
Arabs,
And silently steal away.”
No other quotation that could
better describe the superb enter-
ainment presented by the Wheat-1
ley Glee Club, under the super-
vision of Mrs. Mattie 0. Roberts
on Monday night, March 29th, at
the Wheatley auditorium. Invoca-
ion was by the Rev. W. A. Carr,
pastor of Payne Chapel church.
Surely everyone of the 1300 list-
eners present lost their cares of
the day and permitted the soothing
harmony of music to lift them to
a fresher start for the next task.
The “motet” arrangement of
“Praying in the Kingdom” was
composed by the sponsor, Mrs.
Roberts. We all know this type of
arrangement dates back to the
Fifteenth century and is a ploy-
phonic choral composition on a
sacred text, usually without instru-
mental accompaniment. The a cap-
ella renditions were excellent, es-
pecially the “Lord’s Prayer” by
Stivers and Joseph No cisse, was
beautifully illustrated in the Dutch
windmill and tulips scene, con-
structed by the Dramatics Club
under the supervision of Robert
Holland.
The- cooperation between the
Dramatics and the Music depart-
ments in making this musical the
success it was is a beautiful dem-
onstration of the correlation of
high school departments and work.
Jack Motley’s soothing tenor voice
made the audience feel the words
in “Sometimes I feel like a Mother-
less Child.” The instrumental se-
lections were a forcast of our
future pianists and let us know
that the day of classical piano pre-
sentation is still very much alive.
