Brahms' Third Symphony will be the major work in most of the performances, Delbanco said. The group's repertoire will also include pieces by Stravinsky, Handel, Bach, Mogart, and Debussy, and Lawrence G. Franko '63 will perform Mosart's Concerto in G Minor...
...melodic and elaborately embellished Handel work proved to be one of those baroque affairs full of knights, courtiers and disguised lovers, all involved in magical complications.

It was a semi-Stokowski reading of Handel, with much contrast between the fervid string group and the more restrained, less impassioned woodwind ensemble. The solo passages occasionally caused problems, as did the corps of basses which mainly served to muddy the sound...
