A VERSATILE CHOIR.

A glance at the repertoire of the Royal Welsh Male Choir, now in Sydney, reveals the very wide range they cover in their vocal efforts. Songs as wide apart as the rousing “ March of the Men of Harlech,” and the “ Pilgrim’s Chorus” from “ Tannhauser,” “ Strike the Lyre,” “ The Soldier’s Chorus” from “ Faust,” “ The Tyrol,” “ The Martyrs of the Arena,” “ The Destruction of Gaza,” the Welsh hymn “ Aberystwyth,” the “ Miserere” from “Il Trovatore,” all find a place in it, while one of the finest efforts is “ Lead, Kindly Light,” which they sing as the Besses o’ the Barn played it —exquisitely.
