Dressed in black pants and sailor sp
tops, the boys gave one of the best
performances Columbia has ever pi
seen. dc
The people in the well-filled el
auditorium gave a hearty welcome pc
to the foreign act, and despite the
language barrier and tough Vien- a
nese accents, the choir was fe
understood and applauded. fr
"Una Hora" by Thomas Da Vittoria
was the second piece by the at
choir. The duet in this piece was ab- w
solutely amazing. These boys have D
a special command of music, and N
their performance proved the pe
choir's training is everything ? and at

Classical music
Folksongs and waltzes were also
performed by the Vienna Boys
Choir. The night ended with a resounding
command performance
and encore with the song "Dixie."
The piece, sung by Viennese boys
with thick accents, was still a hit
and received a standing ovation.
The onlv oroblem with the nro
gram was the sound. The accents of
the boys, combined with the lack of
sound, made speech by the choir
difficult to hear. Unfortunately,
this was not remedied in the program
and the audience missed a bit
of the dialogue in the performance.
However, in the long run, this
was an excellent and well-puttogether
program. The USC
Cultural Series Committee and
patrons should be proud of
themselves. It was a masterful performance
worthy of well-sung
praise. Charleston
