AGAIN PHESE/l/ T S When rehearsals for the “Elijah” started last week the attendance was very encouraging, with a number of new members in the tenor and bass sections. The Canada Council has recognized the quality and potential of the Richmond Hill Ecumenical Choir by giving a grant toward its major production of the season, Mendelssohn's “Elijah”. The choir is very proud of this tribute. Mendelssohn's “Elijah” is a very challenging choral work and is the biggest venture yet undertaken by the choir. Many citizens and businesses in the town have been approached to give the additional financial assistance it needs. Conductor Edward Luka announced that, while it was good to see new faces, the choir will have to be closed to new members after the next two rehearsals. Anyone wishing to join for this performance, must therefore turn out imâ€" mediately and be prepared to attend all rehearsals on Monday evenings and every third Sunday afternoon in the month at Our Lady Queen of the World Roman Catholic Church.
