Show CANTATA 40 COMING OF THE KING by the haydn society in the last issue of the times something was said about a holiday event for those who like a high class clasa musical entertainment most of the shows so far this season have been representative of the black race nearly all of africa is on the road did you ever hear that little statement see america first the best things known to the world are right at the home of americans do we appreciate or value home production did you see the little comedy between the acts last friday night by our home talent no you missed something the home folks cant afford to beat the public not easily run out the point is this sixty of your towns people have been working for about two months under the best director we could secure on a musical production with two great aims first we have banded together for artistic and social improvement pro iid and second for the betterment of the community music is the first of the arts and stirs the souls of men like nothing else will it is divided divided into three classes good better best the haydn society has been trying to cultivate a desire for the best they are about ready to give in an hour or two the work of two months the members have been loyal and the directors energetic er we are not ashamed to ask the public approval of the first one third of our winters course we want to partially fulfill our second object that of bettering the community dont get the impression that the music will be beyond the comprehension of the average show going person it is classic but is of such a fine variety and rendered by so many combinations of voices that it is sure to appeal to all besides the people of parowan carowan demand the best we like the southern melodies and the black faces but we like best that sort of music that hatwill will stir our hearts to love and greatness especially if it is given by our home people the main production the coming of the king by dudley buck is one of the greatest compositions in music the synopsis given below will give you an idea of the beautiful story of the coming of christ so appropriate of the season the cast is the best the misses mcgregor and morris L J adams van buren lyman and whitney are fully able to do justice to the solos duets and quare tet work etc the chlorous work is exceptionally good all the li numbers umbers are so arranged that the keenest interest on the part of performers and audience is incited As special attractions professor eckles and mrs barber are going to appear in individual work when you hear them you can always say you have heard real artists their work with the charous has been most efficient effie effi ent cent their work as special performers is alongside the best in the state the town will appreciate hearing
