UI Choir Lots Duri tT PE PAY TO pi ir vuiitu CVCM OU'iuc-- PCltP By MIKE RICHARDSON Xews-Gaxettc Staff Writer A trhy to Europe can be lust a journey or it can be a learning experience. For 43 members of the University of Illinois Concert Choir, directed by Professor Harold Decker, their recent European trip was certainly a learning experience. Invited by the Council on Intercultural Relations in Vienna, in cooperation with the American Choral Director's Association, to be one of six choirs from the United States participating in the Fourth Annual Symposium for Choral Directors, the choir departed fa two University Charter flights from Chicago's O'Hare airport on Aug. 13 and 14.

The first group suffered tribulations from which the second was spared as It missed connections with an Air France flight from London to Paris which was to connect with a student charter flight from Paris to Vienna. After a later Air France flight to Paris and the purchase of 27 tickets on Austrian Airlines, the group finally reached Vienna at 9:30 p.m. Monday evening. Much less complicated was the trip of the second group which reached Vienna- at about the same time the following evening. While in Vienna, the choir was divided into three groups, along with the other choirs from the U.S., and placed into three large choirs which were under the direction of such internationally known musicians as Gunther Theuring of Vienna, Felix deNobel of Amsterdam, and Denis Stevens of London and New York.

All are acknowledged experts in the areas of Renaissance and Baroque music and they prepared the choirs for a performance at the end of the second week which was presented in the Basilica of San Marco in Venice, Italy. The opportunity to perform works of great masters in the church for which the music was arlgiaallr composed was one of "9 the most valuabl uable experiences of the two weeks for the young mosi clans. Also calculated to deepen their experience with Renaissance art and music was series of lectures delivered by Dr. Anna Spitzmuller and Dr. Friederich Heller of Vienna.

Both are experts in their respective fields and gave the students valuable background in art and music before the tours and concerts which were taken by the students. Besides the rigid schedule of rehearsals by the choirs, and the lectures and tours, there were Individual concerts presented by each of' the American choirs in famous churches of Vienna and Venice. On Friday of the second week, the UI choir had the privilege of giving its concert in the church of Santa Maria della Pieta in Venice, where Antonio Vivaldi had been'a choirmaster during the 17th century. The concert was presented to a foil house and was most enthusiastically received members of the symposium and native Venetians alike. Monday evening the climax of the two weeks of work was reached with the performances of the three symposium choirs in the famous St.

Marks Basilica. Merely entering the building was a thrilling experience as one witnessed the ornate and beautiful gold mosaics which completely cover the domes and alcoves of the great structure. The concert was beautiful featuring the works of Josquin des Prez, Orlando di Lasso, Andrea and Giovanni Gabrieli, Hetnrich Schutz and others. Full use of the various choir lofts and alcoves was made, and a sense of the spatial properties of the music was gained which can not be fully appreciated from merely reading music history. The following day, members of the UI choir travelled by bus to Florence where they visited the UffM (Gallery, the Pitti Palace ana other monumental storehouses Italian art, prior to presenting a concert in the beautiful church of Santa Croce.

Built in 1294, this cathedral is the burial place of such famous Italians as MachiayeUi, Michelangelo, Galileo 2nd Rossini. After the concert, a overnight train was takes to. Sierre, Switzerland where a oon. cert was gives Thursday even, tog in the church of Saint Catherine. The next day a tour was taken by cog railway to Zermatt in the Swiss Alps which is very close to the famous Matterhom.

The choir members were' fortunate, for that day was one of the few in the year when the peak was not shrouded in clouds, and the clear view was one of the most striking scenes imaginable. A second overnight train ride took the choir to Ostende, Belgium. Where it boarded a ship for the crossing of the English Channel to Dover, England. From Dover, the group went to Canterbury and presented a concert on Saturday afternoon in the famous cathedral there. Sunday morning the group attended a worship service presided over by the Archbishop of Canterbury.

Following the service a bus was taken to London where the choir presented its final concert on Monday afternoon to an appreciative audience in the church of St Martin of the Fields. On Tuesday the group which had departed from Chicago on Ang. IS boarded a DI charter flight at London's Heathrow airport for the return trip to the United States. The remaining group is spending another week in and around England, and will return Friday. From the members of the UI concert choir to the people of Champaign-Urbana whose support and donations helped to make this memorable excursion possible, a very hearty thank you.
