Richard Dyer-Bennet, a modern version of the troubadour, is a poet, com poser, singer, guitarist and musicologist in one. He sings a lusty, humorous Elizabethan ballad, a tender folk song or a melodic line of a sixteenth century aria with equal facility and grace. Yet, according to the critics, his sing ing exemplifies simplicity and reserve. This young Minstrel in while tie has given more than a dozen recitals in Town and Carnegie Hall and has made concert tours throughout the United States and Canada. He has been on numerous radio programs and records for his own company, Dyer- Bennet records. Since his first appearance on the concert stage, he has delighted audi ences and won the acclaim of New York critics, among them Walter Winchell. During the current scholastic year he has performed for many midwest- ern college audiences, including Notre Dame, St. Joseph's and John Carroll. His repertoire includes 600 songs, presented with feeling and skill. For his Mundelein performance his num bers will be grouped into three cata- gories those of the British Isles, Europe and America. The titles will be announced individually from the stage by Mr. Dyer-Bennet.
