Band and Chorus Seeking Members

For the first time, Harvard will have a summer band. Under the direction of the Summer School and several members of the famous Harvard Band, classical overtures and modern band pieces will be played by the newly-organized Harvard Summer Symphonic Band.

The new group is not officially or financially a part of the regular Harvard aBnd, but will use its equipment and include several instrumentalists from the Band in its membership.

Rehearsals will be held each week, beginning this Thursday night, and the Summer Band will give a concert later in the summer session. Membership is open to all students in the Summer School.

All students who like to sing are strongly urged to join the Summer School Chorus. This applies especially to tenors, who are always in short supply.

The Chorus, under the leadership of Harold C. Schmidt '32, Director of Choral Music and professor of Music at Stanford University, will have its organizational meeting tomorrow from 7 to 8 p.m. in Room 11, Sever Hall. Rehearsals will take only three hours a week in preparation for the annual choral concert to be given in Sanders Theatre on August 13. The Chorus may also apear on television, as in previous summers.
