Figure 1.--Toin Gauken had both an elenentary school choir and orcestra. This seem to have been done with the 5th and 6th graders separately, at least these are the performances we could find. Rge choir had one accomaonist, this boy playing the piano..

We see large numbers of children participating in Yoinin Gauken and not just the best singers--the whole class seems to be participating. We note large 5th and 6th frade choirs. We assume other classes had choirs, but probaly did not have such publlic performances as the older children. Many schools had choirs, but not choirs compopsed of whole classes. School choirs were usually composed of children vetted for those with some degree of musical talent. But here we see choirs in which whole classes seem to be participating. They are led by the same individual whjo led the orcestra. He seems to have really had his hands full. It is not like he could concentrate his jands onm a few carefully chosen chilfren. Tather he was dealing with several hundered singers and orchestra members. He must have had help, but even so his practice time with each choir and orchestra had to be very limited.
