Given any one choral organization. provided it had enough really good voices, Mr. Harned’'s work last night Indicated that with concentrated and numerous vehearsals he could produce an organi- zation of which = Washington might well be proud. He held his groups last night to a precision of attack and a sense of rhythmic values in most of their selections.
