The first of a series of expositions of classical and modern chamber music will be given in the New Lecture Hall next Tuesday evening at 8 o'clock. This will be the fourth year of a four years' course of classical and modern chamber music, which has been arranged by a number of persons, chiefly Harvard alumni, interested in musical education, who believe that American universities have not as yet afforded sufficient opportunities for developing the musical taste of those of their members who are not especially devoted to musical studies. The program will be rendered Tuesday by Mrs. Edith Chapman Goold, soprano; Mr. George Barrere, flute; Mr. Paul Kefer, viola da gamba; Mr. Arthur Whiting, harpsichord.
