Jacob Arcadelt arr Lee Holmes - Ave Maria - Advanced Boy's Chorus Columbia High School Decatur GA 7
Ave Maria Jacob Arcadelt (arr. Lee Holmes) Advanced Boy's Chorus Columbia High School Decatur GA 1973-1974 Fall Concert (probably December 8, 1973) This very poorly created and edited recording is provided only for historical and nostalgic reasons. No formal recordings were ever made of the Columbia High School Choirs. These are the only extant examples of what was an outstanding choral music program in the mid-1970's, and are only meant to give some idea of the considerable efforts taken to develop the singers and the programs made by the choral music directors, in particular the work of Madison D. Short, Jr. (1928-1990), who did his keyboard studies at Juilliard, was an award-winning Choral Clinician and Director, and was the author and designer of an unique choral sight-singing method. Notes: The original recording was made on a primitive hand-held cassette tape recorder using very poor quality tape. Considerable efforts at noise reduction and enhancement were made to this recording. Analog Recording: Joseph Valles, Annette Valles Digital recording transfer and editing by Joseph Valles using a Behringer UFO202 and Audacity Photos from 1972-76 Aquila, the Columbia High School Annual
