Yesterday's article cited the history of the Festival. Today's discusses opinions of Festival Youth Chorus * conductor, Prof. Marguerite V. Hood, as expressed in an interview yesterday.) By RENE GNAM Problems encountered w h e n training a children's chorus for public concert ,performances are different than those of an adult group. Prof. Marguerite V. Hood, of the music school, points out that chil- dren's performances often "depend on physical condition. If they get tired and slump, they will sing flat. "They have a certain group feel- ing. If something starts to hap- pen, it spreads throughout the group. During the interview, Prof. Hood emphasized that "they are very sensitive to each other. "When they sing in a large group, they sometimes don't know whether they are in tune or not," conductor Hood said. PROF. MARGUERITE HOOD ...

After all,I they're all fifth and sixth gradeI public school children." When queried as to the atten- tion of the children, Prof. Hood replied, "They just can't sit still." Selection of works to be per- formed is also difficult. This is true primarily with regard to large .compositions. In this line, "there are not too many excellent works that are written for children and are childlike. You can make the children learn them, but it doesn't come naturally." Prof. Hood emphasized "we try to do things that will be worth- while in the lives of the children, both now and in the future." The children represent "a pret- ty good cross-section of America. Although they are really excellent, they are unpredictable. You can't have the assurance of a stable performance as with adults." Conductor Hood said "they are frank and very refreshing. They are so scrubbed and clean and anxious to do well and so thrilled with it all. They have a wonder- ful sparkle and aren't sophisticat- ed or blase. Then, too, this is a special occasion for them." Festival Youth Chorus first per- formed May 16, 1913, under the name of "Children's Chorus." In succeeding years the group was known as "Children's Festival Chorus," "Young People's Chorus," and "Youth Chorus," before its present title. Prof. Hood summed up the at- titude of the children by saying, "If they had their way, they would clap for themselves."
