Choral Concert (1948)

The Leslie Bell Singers work during the day and rehearse at night for the joy they find in singing. Here they present widely differing numbers: Echo Song from 16th-century Italy is followed by the Québec folk song Quand j'étais chez mon père; the black spiritual I Couldn't Hear Nobody Pray contrasts with I'se the Boy That Builds the Boat, from the fishing hamlets of Newfoundland; and finally a special arrangement of Schubert's Ave Maria.
