It is the end result of the deeper emotions and ideals of an indi- vidual which tends to Hnk him with someone or something. It is usually quiet, devoted, and in most cases, lasting. It is a wondrous thing, es- pecially so in these times of conflicting social forces. Each of us is loyal to something: church, country, family, friends, or self. Loyalty grows with us and binds us with invisible strands to the people and institutions we meet along life's way. Certainly, no one can leave the college of his choice without taking a part of it with him and leaving a part of himself behind, no matter how small. And no matter how far removed we may become in time or space those parts remain and are nurtured. We chose Elizabethtown College, and the College chose us. Let ^ us hope that both parties show a fair profit from their association. ^ Because of our common experiences and en- vironment . because we share the campus, past and present . because we are jointly concerned with the college and its success in the future . because we feel a tie with the school and an interest in its affairs . because this is a part of our lives and our dreams and our hopes . because we are loyal to the same place, the same principles, the same institutions, the same songs and cheers and dreams . because of this . we dedicate this yearbook to you, alumni and friends of Elizabethtown.

The goal for the first three-year phase of the program was set at $350,000. The end of the first phase, June 30, 1957, saw this goal reached and surpassed as alumni and friends of the college responded willingly and generously to Elizabethtown's forward- looking venture. In January, 1957, the first tangible result First Stages.

This aid has been given by alumni, friends of the col- lege, and industry. Efforts have also been made to encourage the Churches of Eastern and Southern Penna. to place the college in their annual budget giving. Because of the rapid growth of Elizabeth- town College it is urgent that we have a new dormitory for 200 men and a student union building to provide for the health and recreational needs of our students. p.roaram'9 The facilities that would be provided in the student union building are: a college store, a cafeteria, study rooms, a lounge, shower rooms, and locker space, as well as some recreational facilities. Because of the obtainable facilities of a student union building, the facilities to be provided in the field house can possibly be limited to a basketball floor with spectator space. This is especially true if the student union building can be in close proximity. Thus our development program moves forward to keep in pace with the constantly End In Sight. , , .

However, our teachers—from first grade through col- lege—must be ranked among the most important molders of our per- sonalities. We may forget some of them but never all of them because they have imparted a light that can never be completely extinguished, no matter how much life may buffet us. They have helped us to develop that something which will hence- forth influence our every decision: our education. As Addison said, they have "fetched out the colours." Alpha Hall I reAldent A. C.

  • So You Want to Sing Spirituals Contributing Composers' Brief Biographies by Randye Jones
    So You Want to Sing Spirituals Contributing Composers’ Brief Biographies By Randye Jones “My compositional process involved hours of engaging the texts and reflecting on the honest lyrics that are often multidimensional and complex, yet simply expressed, humbly, in slave vernacular. The messages are discerning and personal. They evoke the hard truths of slavery in such a meaningful and even beautiful way: the inhumanity, the tragedy, and the scars, which still in many ways remain unhealed on the back of America. Yet somehow, despite hard truths and devastating context, the most compelling features of these songs may be the elements of hope that are ubiquitous throughout their texts.”1 OTHER HISTORICAL AND CONTEMPORARY COMPOSERS In addition to the pioneers of concert spirituals mentioned in Chapter Three of So You Want to Sing Spirituals, several composers have contributed to this vocal music repertoire. Below are biographical sketches of some of those composers and a sample listing of recordings of their concert spirituals. Links to extended biographies on the Afrocentric Voices in “Classical” Music site are added. Late Nineteenth Century These composers were born in the generation immediately following the end of the American Civil War in 1865. They were often the children of ex-slaves, or they otherwise were exposed to the Negro spiritual directly from the living sources of these songs. They continued the process, begun by the Fisk Jubilee Singers, of sharing this soul-stirring, original American music across the United States and around the world. William Arms Fisher (b. 27 April 1861, San Francisco, California; d. 18 December 1948, Brookline, Massachusetts).

    ABOUT THE ARTISTS success in international competitions give this quartet a rich and varied tapestry as they weave their musical message. The Left Bank Quartet’s repertoire encompasses an eclectic range, with quartets of composers such as Chavez, Crumb, Durkó, Dutilleux, Ginastera, Jalbert, Kirchner, Kurtág, Korngold, Ligeti, Meriläinen, Nancarrow and Revueltas augmenting the standard fare. Compositions written for and premiered by the quartet include Mark Wilson’s Time Variations (Capstone Records ) and String Quartet No. 4 by Lawrence Moss, recently released on the Innova label. Gramophone magazine’s review praised the composition for its “charm” and “dazzle,” stating, “Moss uses the instruments with idiomatic mastery, ranging from kittenish endearments to electric flashes of energy … played by the Left Bank Quartet with brilliant focus and timbral variety … .” POSTCLASSICAL ENSEMBLE Founded in 2003 by Music Director Angel Gil-Ordóñez and Artistic Director Joseph Horowitz, PostClassical Ensemble is an experimental musical laboratory testing the limits of orchestral programming. Its tagline, “More than an Orchestra,” refers to the thematic scope and exceptional formats of its concerts and an aspiration to embrace collaborative and educational activities not normally associated with orchestras. PCE’s many previous programs at the Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center have included a George Gershwin mini-festival, a presentation of the 1939 film documentary The City with Aaron Copland’s score performed live (and subsequently recorded as a Naxos DVD) and a program of Schoenberg and Weill based on Joseph Horowitz’s book Artists in Exile. In May 2014 PCE returns to College Park for Mexican Revolution,featuringtheclassic Mexican film Redes with Silvestre Revueltas’s blistering score performed live.
