Choir at Work Sidney School Choir Plans Rehearsal Demonstration SIDNEY The public will be given an opportunity to hear an "open rehearsal" of the Sidney Senior High School concert choir from 8 to 9 p.m. Thursday March 31 in the high school auditorium. Purpose of this "open rehearsal" is two-fold, according to William F.

Cook, choir director. First, it is planned to acquaint the public some the problems of choral singing, such as intonation, phrasing, attacking, and releasing pitches, dynamics and limitations of the high school voice. Secondly, it is designed to show the public how these problems are approached. Because of having to end a rehearsal at a specific time, regardless of how the session has progressed, the element of timing will be emphasized during th'e rehearsal. It will end promptly at 9 p.m.

According to Mr. Cook, the audience will observe how the students approach a typical choir rehearsal in 'the school day; how a rehearsal commences and progresses, and how students react to different kinds of music. He emphasized that this will not be a "show" in the sense of its employing curtains, special stage lighting, or special dress for the choristers. This is an attempt to reproduce a typical rehearsal for the parents and friends of members of the Concert Choir, who, schedule and other conflicts have no opportunity to sec these young people work in such a manner.

The program, if adopted, it is reported, would extend over a period of 25 years. The program, tinder study, is expected to call for a new city distribution tunnel, to supplement existing tunnels 1 and 2 from Hill View reservoir in Yonkers southward into the city.

The sum of $250,000 has been asked for by the Board of Water Supply to en able its own engineers to begin their studies, make surveys, and prepare maps and plans for the projects involved.
