Care should be taken to select heavy numbers, when suggested, that will create a more or less mystical effect. Dramatic emphasis is necessary for Nos. 1, 4, 5, 9, 10, 13 and 16. These are high tension dramatic moments. Select your music accordingly. There is little opportunity for light and frivolous playing. Consequently you should select numbers that are musically interesting. Numbers 1, S, 9, 10, 13 and 16 must be slow, high-tension numbers played legato and of dramatic effect. Nos. 2, 6 and 12 can be light numbers in 2/4 or 4/4. These numbers are to create musical relief for your program. Nos. 3 and 7 must be concert waltzes with slow and impressive introductions. No. 4 must be a long nimiber with a positive mysterious effect. No. 8 can be a medium 4/4 niunber. It should however be played legato. Nos. 11 and 17 must be waltz lentos of sustained melody. No. 14 and 15 are melodramatic numbers. The organ can be very effectively used throughout the entire picture.
