Don’t forget the Pekin Prize Waltz Ing and Two Step Contest at East Turner Hall March 30. Eight big prizes and Ben Goodman’s orchestra. The month of March seems destined to he the season of highest attain ment In musical lines for many a year. The first event which was extraordi nary was the presentation of "Crea tion” by the choir of Zion Baptist church on last Thursday night. The reputation of this choir was sufficient to fill tne large audience room, and all felt the thrill which good music gives. The oratorio is a combination of cuoriis and solo work with Mesdames Plnn, Motley, Moore and L. H. Jones. Messrs. Gatewood and Clark taking the lending roles. Dr. Jones as Adam and 'Miss Eva Carter as Eve being the principal sololsta. In the chorus there were-Misses Webiter, Gatewood; Mes dames Batey, Waller Gould, Ford, Turner, Ball. Mree, Over; Messrs. City News Clark, Davis, Chapman, Waller and Russell. Madam Faulkner as choris ter trained the choir, Mrs. C. D. De .Frantz was organist and A. L. Madi son was cornetist. The universal approval which was accorded the singers was deserved. Possibly the appreciation shown was made the greater because the audi ence was provided with librettos which permitted them to enjoy the beauty of thoughi and language a.> much as the tonal excellencies of voice and organ. This oratorio was an ambitious pro duction, nothing like it having been attempted here by a church choir be fore. The glory belongs to it both for the effort and for the success. That it dared to try is glory itself; that it succeeded and pleased a multitude should be a source of pride to Denver. The chorister especially is to be com mended.
