And, as a material 'assist" for the choir leaders, a "kit" of 10 carefully selected and recom.. mended selections will be Into- duced at the institute. "Selecting music from a cata- log" commented Elder Cornwall, "is a very discouraging business; especially is this true in trying to select music that is appropri- ate andwithin the ability range of our typical ward choirs," The executive committee of the Church Music Committee has spent weeks and months in care-fully scrutinizing a great many selections and has approved this group of 10 humbers, which they believe will be acceptable to all choir leaders and which will form a good choir repertoire for the coming season, Tracy Y. Cannon, committee chairman,-sai- d. Selections chosen y the m until the evening of the institute, but they include compositions by Mendelssohn, Alexander Schreiner, B. Cecil Gates, Arthur Sullivan, Willy Reske, Konrad Kocher, Spohr, MacDermid and , Titcomb. , Several of the composittons been especially, arranged for small choir performance by ' Elder Cornwall' t .,. Authors of the texts for the 10 numbers include Orson F. Whit- ney, early-da- y prominent Church , poet and member of the Council of Twelve, and, William Mulder, former associate editor of the Improvement Era and now a of the English Depart- ment faculty at the University of ' Utah.
