ALEX GILFILLAN This small and select group, organized in the fall of 1946, was centered in the preparation and performance of compositions specially written for double quartets. All periods of musical development were repre– sented in the compositions selected that year for per– formance. Although the main emphasis was on the early English Madrigal and the Italian and European contrapuntal forms, their repertoire also included several American compositions in the folk and legen– dary styles. The Madrigal Singers were unable to grant all the requests for concerts because of unexpected changes of personnel. They hope to be able to meet all future requests with a well-rounded and com– plete program.
