The STOCKHOLM UNIVERSITY
CHOIR, which will appear at the
Masonic Auditorium April 7, has
an unusually large repertoire (over
600 numbers), representing, above
all, Swedish folk-songs, as well as
music by such contemporary com-
posers as Debussy, Ravel, Brahms,
Britten, Orff, Handel and Monte-
verdi. Comprising 32 young singers
from the immediate Stockholm
area, the group's verve and joi
d'vivre is balanced by its meticu-
lous adherence to the highly pro-
fessional guidance of its director,
Eskil Hemberg.

The BALLET FOLKLORICO,
Mexico's National Ballet, which
comes to the Masonic Auditorium
April 14-16, was virtually unknown
to most North Americans and to
Europe just six short years ago.
On May 9, 1961, the company of
75 dancers, singers and musicians
appeared at the Theater Sarah
Bernhardt during the Paris Festi-
val of Nations. Latin American
dances were no novelty to Paris
and the French critics expected to
take the Ballet Folklorico of Mexi-
co in their stride. But the next
morning the same critics were un-
able to contain themselves. Since
1959, the Ballet Folklorico has
given more than 600 performances.
In addition to its tours, it per-
forms on a regular thrice-weekly
basis in Mexico City, where it is
cheered by standing-room houses.
