A program of songs by the St. Joseph's University boys' choir is presented. Conducted by Father Léandre Brault, the choir is heard in Lily White, a Welsh ballad; Dominus Dixit, a Gregorian chant; Laughing Song, expressing student exuberance; Bridal Party, a Norwegian ballad; Hymn to the Night, a song of thanksgiving; and The Raftsmen, descriptive of the lumberjacks of early Ottawa. With the exception of Dominus Dixit, which is sung in Latin, the songs are in French and English.
