Presentation Os Messiah Thrills Crowd At Berne A Review "Two hours and 15 minutes of some of the greatest music ever written by man. around the greatest theme ever written by God" ( is the way one hearer described The .Messiah of Georg Frlederich ( Handel. "And in our own county, a worthy performance of both music j and theme was given Sunday night at the First Mennonite church in Berne by the Mennonite choral society. More than 2.000 people ' crowded tlie vast church, even ( standing around the walls. Decatur ' was well represented among the , hearers. The sanctuary began to fill about 5:30 p.m. for the per- ' forinance not scheduled to begin until 7:30 o'clock. "Conductor Freeman Burkhalter ‘ and his mighty chorus of 17s voices were superb in their interpretations, from the softer confession that "All We Like Sheep | Have Gone Astray" to the thrilling J triumph of the "Hallelujah." Henry I Beard at the organ and Rebecca I Reusser Stucky at the piano havejl no peers in accompaniment. So- I prano soloist Christine Habeggerjl Purves carried her recitatives and I airs in a voice which could be I described as thin but sweet. Bari-,1 tone Raymond McAfee sounded a I bit uncomfortable with his lower | tones, but was otherwise convinc- 1 ing In his presentation. Tenor Ralph Nielsen dramatically indicated his sense of the importance of his musical message, and pleased with his voice. Contralto Audrey Paul had this hearer wishing that ' Georg Frlederich Handel had had i the foresight to give her another air near the climax. For so young ' a woman, her voice fascinated with its mature richness. "The Rev. Olin Krehbiel pro-' nounced Invocation and benedic-' tlon. At the brelf offertory Interlude, Rev. Krehldel described thv ‘work of the Mennonite choral so-! <iety announcing that "The Creation" Is presented by the society the second Sunday of every June; and "The Messiah" on the second Sunday of every December.” Sewing School To Be Held Wednesday A one-day sewing school will he held Wednesday at Zlner's Home Appliance store. It was announced today by Clarence Ziner. owner of the local store.
