Music Library Gets Complete Beethoven Works The Complete Works and Monumeiita of Ludwig van Beethoven, in 24 volumes with the portfolios of the orchestral parts, is a recent acquisition of the College Music Library. Bound in rich green with gold trim, the 24 volumes are a gift of an alumna of the de gt;artiiK-nt, in memory of Sister Mary Rafael, B.V.M., first chairman of the Music department, who died Feb. 9. Published in 1949, the volumes are an Edwards Music Photolithograph Reprint of the famous Breitkopf and Hartel edi tion, first issued in Leipzig. Sister Mary Rafael published a num ber of musical compositions including a familiar hymn to the Little Flower, Hymn to Christ the King, Hymn in honor of the Assumption, a Mass of Christ the King, a three-part chorus entitled Ecce Sacer- dos, and a music setting for the Ninety- Fifth Psalm. Violin Music Will Charm Worries Away Violin music will dominate the assem bly Nov. 13 when Charlene Dilling Brew er plays such favorites as Kreisler's Praeludium and Allegro and the Pro- kofieff-Heifetz March. A Chicagoan, Mrs. Brewer has played in concerts throughout the United States and Europe. Recently she received an invitation to appear in a concert for UNESCO delegates who represent 37 nations, and in February she is sched uled to play at Orchestra hall. Complimenting the artistry of the mu sician will lie her newly acquired Emili- ciani Stradivarius violin, made in 1703, and her almost-as-famous Nicolo Amati instrument. Other selections on her program will be Melodie by Gluck-Kreisler, Adagio and Finale from the Concerto in G Minor by Bruch; Apres un Revc, by Faure- Bachmann, and Sea Murmurs, by Tovetz- ski. Twelfth Night Comes On Twenty'First Night The Drama department produc tion of Twelfth Night, Nov. 21- 23, will have a setting which might well interest Shakespeare himself, who went in for simplic ity of staging. George Petterson, who divides his time between the television studios at WGN and Mundelein's stage, for which he is technician, has designed a simultaneous set ting. The setting consists of three arches mounted on levels to in sure fidelity to the fluidity of Shakespearean staging, in which one scene flows right into the fol lowing without the necessity for involved scenery changes. The ancient city of Illyria and its sea- coast will be transported in time and space to Mundelein's stage by the Laetare Players and helping De Paul and Loyola students. Nov. 21, 22. 23, when Shake speare's Twelfth Night, divided into three acts, will be presented. The disguised Viola will lie portrayed by Winifred Owens and Jean Tennes; the noble Countess Olivia by Joan Mal lon and liarbara Prohaska; Feste. the clown, by Melita Lynch and Joan Overholt.
