FAMOUS CHOIR TO BROADCAST CHRISTMAS EVE Sistine Singers ‘Voices’ to Span Atlantic Over NBC Network. BY PAUL HARRISON NEA Service Write* NEW YORK, Dec, 18.—The old world's Christmas messages will be brought to America this year by radio, and the millions of listeners in this country will hear, for *he first time, some of the most famous of all choral organizations. During Christmas week, according to the plans of the broadcasting companies, more time and effort than ever before are to be devoted to music and special programs. Outstanding, perhaps, will be the presentation of the Sistine choir, to be heard in America on Christmas eve. This greatest of all Catholic choirs originally consisted of thirty-two choral chaplains domiciled at Rome. For centuries it was this choir’s exclusive privilege to sing at all ecclesiastical functions in which the pope participated. Offer Six Numbers They will oflcr six selections in a Yuletide greeting to the world, and their voices, spanning the Atlantic by short wave, will be rebroadcast here on an NBC network. Two unusual choral offerings aii to be put on the air Dec. 23 by the Columbia Broadcasting System. At 10:30 a. m., E. S. TANARUS., an hour when no other such music Is available, will begin a program of carols from King’s College Chapel at Cambridge university. This will be the first broadcast to this country of any program originating in the ancient cathedral. Carols From Leipzig In the evening will come another carol program from abroad, this time from the choir of St. Thomas’ church in Leipzig, Germany, where the immortal Bach once was organist. The Thomanerchor, the choir organization, is more than 700 years old. Two other international broadcasts will be heard over the Columbia network on the Sunday preceding Christmas. From Nuremberg, capital of the toy-making industry, Oberbuergermeister (mayor) Luppe will tell about the manufacture of toys, some of which will even provide the sound efforts. Instead of being destined for American alone, the program will be truly international, with bilingual announcements from Germany. Full Schedule in U. S. Earlier the same morning, the choir of St. Margaret’s church, Westminster, England, will sing part of a Bach cantata from the old church which stands in the shadow of hallowed Westminster Abbey. But for every broadcast from ireross the sea, there will be at least a dozen special programs originating in the United States. Orchestral and choral organizations already have been in rehearsal for several days. And one of the greatest of all Christmas songs—“ Silent Night, Holy Night”—will be heard on Christmas eve from one of America’s best-loved singers Mme. Schumann-Heink. Some Christmas traditions already have been established on the radio, and one of these is the annual presentation, by CSB, of Dickens’ “Christmas Carol.’’ The cast, too, will be virtually unchanged this year, with Robert Vivian in the role of Scrooge, and Donald Hughes as Tiny Tim. Hour Carol Program As the midnight bells usher in the day, according to eastern time, j a full chorus and symphony orches- i tra under Columbia’s Howard Bar- ! low will begin an hour’s program of i carols. Millions of Catholic listeners throughout the east will be able to hear at that same time the internationally famous Paulist choristers in a midnight mass from the Church of St. Paul the Apostle in New York. Comparatively few dramatic programs will be heard, for Christmas is traditionally a time for music. However, several periods of popular : music have been scheduled, with i enough ’'.jingle bells” atmosphere ' included to give the seasonal effect. ] By U. S. Composers On Dec. 22 a CBS network will carry a program of Christmas music, written entirely by American composers. Washington's contribution to the holiday fliusic will be a presentation of the National Capitol choir of forty voices. Another outstanding period, on Christmas morning, will consist of Peter Cornelius’ “Weinachtslie<ser,” a Christmas song cycle, which will be put on the air for the first time. On Christmas eve in Washington, President and Mrs. Hoover, VicePresident Curtis and members of the cabinet will be heard at the ceremonies attending the lighting of the national community Christmas tree. DR. BADER TO LEAVE Evangelism Secretary to Move Offices to New York. Dr. Jesse M. Bader, secretary’ of Evangelism of the United Christian Missionary Society, will assume new duties Jan. 1 as secretary of the commission of evangelism of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America, with offices in New York City. One of Dr. Bader’s first duties will be to arrange a series of evangelistic conferences in principal cities in the south. Dr. Bader came to Indianapolis w - .he society headquarters were moved here two years ago, becoming head of the home missions department. He also is general secretary of the world convention of Disciples of Christ, representing churches in thirty-five countries and meeting every five years. Olds Is Named to Hague Court By Unital I’resa WASHINGTON. Dec. 18.—President Hoover has selected Robert E. Olds, former secretary of state, as a judge on the permanent court of arbitration at The Hague, succeeding the late Roland W. Borden, it, was announced today by the state department.
