It will De of interest to our Congre­gation to know something about the two prominent organists who will play an important part in our Service Friday Evening.

Gotfried Federlein, who is the or­ganist at Temple Emanuel. is also an outstanding composer of religiOUS music. We are proud to include his compositions in our Sabbath Eve­ning Liturgy.

Joseph Yasser, our own organist, is recognized in the musical world as a musicologist. Before coming to America, he was head of the Organ Department in the Moscow Conserv­atory. Mr. Yasser made an extensive tour to China to make a study of Tonality, on which subject he has written a book used by all earnest students of music, and found in all music libraries.

With the introduction of Schubert's Cantata, it is hoped that more and more of the well-known Cantatas and Oratorios by world-renowned composers will be sung in our Temples.
