THE APOLLO QUARTET

What may be termed melodious variety characterises the contribution to be made by the Apollo Quartet-Messrs. S. Duncan (tenor), W. Robbins (tenor), S. B. Rogers (bass), and Roy Dellow (baritone)-to the programine scheduled for ‘Thursday, November 24. These singers will be heard in several popular part songs, including "O Lovely Night," ‘Soldier’s Farewell," ‘In Absence," and ‘The Goslings.’? ‘‘In Absence’ is one of Dudley Buck’s most beautiful compositions, filled with exquisite melody, while in "The GosLo TACTICS HER SHES

ith. lings,’? which has a love episode for its theme, the Alpha and Omega of the story is cleverly portrayed by the introduction of both "The Wedding March" and ‘The Death March." In duet and solo numbers an exccllent selection is to be presented. Mr. Rogers will be heard in a melody reminiscent of the Iimerald Isle, "The Tittle Irish Girl," a very popular song concerning love and pigs. ‘Iwo duets are scheduled-‘The Battle Ive," a number thrilling with the spirit of war, and that dainty gem ‘The Moon Hath Raised," from ‘fhe Lily of Killarney."’ A song of the old Royalist days, "King Charles," will be presented in a fine baritone settting, while B. Godard’s ever popniar ‘Angels Guard thee" will afford Mr. Duncan full scope for his tich and pleasing voice.
