SINGING before a packed house at Sanders Theater Friday evening, the massed forces of the Harvard Glee Club and the Radcliffe Choral Society, under the direction of Elliot Forbes, unleashed a mighty force de frappe in a program calculated to drive the audience into an unholy frenzy. The first half featured delicate works by Elizabethans William Byrd and Thomas Tallis and neo-Elizabethan Benjamin Britten. But after intermission the choir was joined by the Harvard-Radcliffe Orchestra in a performance of Carl Orff's Carmina Burana, a bacchanale celebrating the headiest side of springtime...
