PREFACE
The University of Alberta Archives was established in 1968 at the recommendation of the
President’s Standing Committee on Archives and Documents. Its primary mandate is to
acquire, maintain, and preserve the records of the University, in any medium, which
contain continuing administrative, legal, and historical value. The Archives constitutes
the official “memory” of the University and represents the accumulated experience of our
educational community. In addition to these official records, the University Archives also
contain the private papers of the University staff whose subjects of research and teaching
encompass the world.

INTRODUCTION
The University of Alberta Mixed Chorus fonds consist of the records of the University of
Alberta’s Mixed Chorus, and include textual records, photographs, and sound recordings.
The records, arranged in two series and described in a basic chronological order, span the
period from the Mixed Chorus’ beginning in the 1940’s until the most recent donation of
records to the University Archives in 1990.
SOURCE: The records of the University of Alberta Mixed Chorus were deposited over
a fifteen year period to the Archives by various individuals associated with the Chorus.
The deposits included a variety of media, and the size of the accession varied greatly from
one donation to the next; many accessions consisted of one, or just a few, discrete items.
While there is a fair amount of textual and photographic material, the predominant record
type is sound recordings (tape and phonograph) of Mixed Chorus rehearsals,
performances, and productions. The University of Alberta Mixed Chorus, approaching its
60th anniversary, continues to thrive and the Mixed Chorus records at the University of
Alberta Archives are considered an open fonds with ongoing donations of Mixed Chorus
records expected at future dates.
ARRANGEMENT NOTE: Because the University of Alberta Mixed Chorus records
were received at the Archives as several deposits over a period of years, there was a need
to bring the records together intellectually to better aid researchers looking for as
complete a picture as possible. Individuals associated with the Mixed Chorus deposited
records in a variety of ways; one deposit might include a few items while others could
consist of several boxes of mixed items. A basic chronological arrangement was
maintained, with series arrangements assigned by the archivist to reflect function and
format of the records.
The records are in good physical shape. There are a few ‘scrapbook’ style secretary’s
books that are somewhat fragile and less stable because of the highly-acidic paper they
contain, and the fact that clippings and articles were glued or scotch taped on to these
pages. Where possible, photographs were removed from the scrapbooks, and newspaper
clippings found throughout the records were photocopied and the original clippings
removed. Generally, the textual material is in excellent shape, and the photographs and
sound recordings are stored separately to enhance their preservation. The photographs and
sound recordings vary in quality, but provide a valuable ‘sight and sound’ sense of the
University of Alberta Mixed Chorus over its years of existence.

HISTORY
The University of Alberta Mixed Chorus is among the oldest non-sport organizations on
campus, tracing its beginning to 1939 when a small choir was formed under the direction
of Ottoman Cypress to supply music for Student Christian Movement services. In 1943,
the Varsity Choir applied for membership to the Literary Association of the Students’
Union, allowing the choir to apply for Student Union funding to purchase music for the
expanding choir. Rehearsals and practices for the choir were organized for the fall of
1944, under the leadership of Gordon F. Clark, a first-year medical student. Their first
concert was presented in Convocation Hall on campus in February 1945, and was well
received and reviewed. Their repertoire of short classical pieces and traditional folk songs
prompted a name change and in 1945, the organization became officially known as the
University of Alberta Mixed Chorus.
The Chorus continued to expand its membership, and by 1947 had approximately 130
members. The popularity of the Chorus necessitated the introduction of what would
become annual auditions for the limited openings available in the Mixed Chorus.
Performances were presented in Edmonton’s Convocation Hall and McDougall Church,
as well as in halls in Calgary, Banff and Red Deer. Due to the demands of final year
Medicine, Gordon Clark resigned as director of the Chorus in 1947. Richard S. Eaton, a
new faculty member in the Department of Fine Arts, agreed to take over as Conductor of
the University of Alberta Mixed Chorus.
Under Professor Eaton’s leadership, which was to last for twenty years, the Chorus
increased in size and accomplishment. A New Trail article published in 1983, explains:
The music becomes more challenging and diversified, the reviews
more numerous and favorable as the Chorus expands the spring
tours begun under Clark, moves into regular radio appearances and
is asked to sing for special occasions, such as Princess Elizabeth’s
visit in 1951. “Forty Years of Harmony”, New Trail, Vol. 38, No 3, Winter 1983
The Mixed Chorus spring tour started in1947 to meet requests for the Chorus to appear in
several Alberta cities and towns. The first tour, held between examination week and
convocation in May, saw a group of about 80 members’ travel through southern Alberta
for nine days, giving a concert each night, and ending with a culminating performance in
Convocation Hall in Edmonton. Once the tour program was chosen, it remained constant
with each community receiving the same program of choral music. The Chorus dressed in
formal attire for the tours; women in pastel evening gowns and men in dark suits and
black bow ties. Chorus members traveled to the various communities by bus, and were
7
University of Alberta Mixed Chorus
billeted in private homes. The spring tour (or May Tour) became an important annual
event for the Mixed Chorus. Over the intervening years, tours expanded to include visits
to communities in Saskatchewan, British Columbia, the Northwest Territories, Idaho,
Washington, and Oregon.
Richard Eaton ‘s sudden death while on sabbatical in 1968 was devastating to the Chorus
members. James Whittle, a member of the Chorus and Assistant Conductor since 1964,
took over as director of the Mixed Chorus after Professor Eaton’s death. He conducted
the Chorus in 1968, 1969 and 1971; Dr. David Stocker, a professor in the Department of
Music, led the Chorus during 1970. In 1971, Dr. R.E. Stephens, Professor of Music
Education at the University of Alberta, assumed the position of Conductor of UAMC, a
post he held until 1986. His fifteen years with the Chorus were interrupted briefly by his
sabbatical leave in 1979, when Merrill Flewelling conducted the Chorus. Robert de Frece,
who sang in the Chorus from 1967 to 1971, took over as director of the UAMC from Ron
Stephens in 1986 and is the present director.
In 1988, the Faculty of Education Handbell Ringers was established as a separate subgroup available to current members of the Mixed Chorus; the Handbell Ringers perform
annually with the UAMC. The Mixed Chorus Alumni Association was established in
1991 to promote continuing contact among Mixed Chorus alumni and to support and
promote the activities of the UAMC. An annual alumni dinner is held prior to the Mixed
Chorus Spring Concert.
Members of the current University of Alberta Mixed Chorus represent almost every
faculty and school on the U of A campus; auditions continue to be held each year during
Registration Week, in September. The Chorus members rehearse four hours each week
during the academic year, and sing annually at the University’s Festival of Nine Lessons
and Carols, and at the Lighting up the Legislature ceremony in Edmonton. Social
activities are a constant in the UAMC history, with steak and pig roasts, alumni nights,
and innumerable parties a part of each season’s activities. As Moira Day, a long-time
member of the University of Alberta Mixed Chorus wrote:
…if there is a single quality that makes the University of
Alberta Mixed Chorus unique, it is a deep sense of continuing
tradition and community…a tradition that is as human as it is musical.
(“Forty Years of Harmony”, New Trail, Winter 1983)

SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE
The University of Alberta Mixed Chorus fonds housed in the University Archives span a
period of more than forty years, and provide a valuable record of a long-standing
University organization (approaching its 60th anniversary of operation). The Mixed
Chorus was, and remains, an active contributor to University society, as well as the
broader surrounding community because of its annual province-wide concerts and related
public appearances. The Chorus is significant to the history of the development of choral
music in Alberta, and its individual members and directors contributors in their own right
to the province’s musical growth.
The records have been arranged and described in two broad series and several subheadings, with a basic chronological order maintained within each series. The textual
files provide information about the early years of the Chorus’ existence, particularly the
years from 1946 to about 1971. Files maintained by the executive and directors (Richard
Eaton and James Whittle) are significant for the information they provide about the
Chorus’ yearly operations and activities. Information in the files after the Whittle years is
sketchier, and more incidental in nature. The textual files include correspondence,
clippings, some meeting minutes, membership lists, the organization’s constitution, and
evidence of the planning and fundraising required to orchestrate the annual UAMC
Spring Tour.
Series 1 consists of the Executive/Director files with sub-series providing information
about membership; social activities, commemorative/historical records, and publicity and
promotion files. Correspondence to and from members of the executive was filed together
(in the form of scrapbooks in the 1940’s), with correspondence maintained by the Chorus
director. Where possible, the original order of the files was maintained, while the series
and sub-series titles were assigned by the archivist to reflect the record function.
Series 2 is the Performance-related records, comprised of printed programs, sound
recordings, and photographs. As noted earlier, the sound recordings form the largest
component of the Mixed Chorus fonds. They include both taped recordings (cassette and
reel-to-reel) as well as disc recordings. The photographs, numbering over 1200 in
quantity, include prints, negatives, and a few transparencies and contact sheets. While the
photographs do vary in quality, they provide important documentation of Mixed Chorus
performances, social activities, and tours. There are excellent images of the Chorus’s 40th
anniversary activities taken by Hal Kinsey, as well as the annual formal photographs of
the Mixed Chorus. Various alumni have sent copies of their personal photographs to the
Mixed Chorus executive, adding to the views of the annual Spring tours, and various
Chorus social events.

The records do not extend beyond the 1980’s, but future accessions from the University
of Alberta Mixed Chorus are anticipated. The Mixed Chorus records provide a profile of
an aspect of the non-academic life of the University of Alberta student community, as
well as make a valuable contribution to musical/performing arts history documentation
for both the University of Alberta, and the Province of Alberta.

EXECUTIVE/DIRECTOR FILES
1. Executive/Director Files. --1946-1989. --.53 m of textual records.
Archival Description: The Executive/Director files were maintained annually, and
contain correspondence, minutes, and tour planning documentation. The files are
complete from about 1946 through the 1970s, while the files maintained in the 1980’s are
sketchier and more ephemeral in content. The files primarily contain chronologically
maintained correspondence, with the letters sent to directors Richard Eaton, and James
Whittle interfiled with the correspondence kept by various members of the UAMC
executive. Sub-headings within this series umbrella, all small in extent, include
membership, social activities, commemorative/historical records, and publicity/promotion
records.
Scope and Content: The files in this series contribute significantly to the documentation
of the growth of choral music at the University and in the Province as a whole. The
activities of the Mixed Chorus, particularly for its first thirty years of operation, are well
represented in these series files. The Chorus programs and posters are interesting for both
their content and esthetic qualities and contribute to outsiders’ understanding of the
operation of the University of Alberta Mixed Chorus. The files are maintained in their
original chronological order.
The series title is based on the content of the records.
A file listing follows.

PERFORMANCE FILES
II. University of Alberta Mixed Chorus, Performance Files, --1945-1990.-- .20 m of
textual records, 134 sound recordings, 1245 photographs.
Archival Description: The performance files consist of material that documents the
Mixed Chorus performances, including printed programs, sound recordings, and
photographs. The programs are complete from 1945 through 1990, and in good physical
shape. The sound recordings, consisting of both tape and disc recordings, are arranged
chronologically. The photographs, which include prints, negatives, and a few
transparencies and contact sheets, are also arranged chronologically within the following
sub-headings: formal group portraits; scrapbook photographs, loose photographs, and
alumni photographs.
Scope and Content: Because of archival storage concerns, photographs and oversize
items were removed from the files and stored separately; sound recordings are also stored
