'769.1300 TIMES: MON.-FRI. 7:10-9:20 By JOE PEHRSON There are two separate schools of thought in contemporary music. One concentrates on the arrangement of sounds and the other the sounds themselves, At last night's Festival of Con- temporary Music the second school lost., Perhaps it is a bit much to ask an audience to completely shift its criteria for judgment halfway through a concert, but clearly the audience was not prepared for the compositions of Stockhausen and Lutoslawski presented in the latter half of the evening. Certainly some- thing can be said for arrange- ment of sound and the struc- ture of the two electronic works by Bassett and Schafer was im- Leslie Bassett, composition professor in the music school, has created a masterpiece of form in his Collect, a work for chorus and electronic tape. Keeping the' chorus and tape together is a continual problem at a live performance of this type of work. Bassett used some unusually blatant cueing tech- niques to solve this problem- loud blips of sound, at exactly the same pitch as the starting notes of the chorus, were sent spinning over the heads of the audience. Fortunately, the va- riety of electronic sounds saved this work from structural mo- notony. The sounds were ex- tremely well defined, and crys- tal precision contrasted with the mellow tones of the chorus.

The best integrated work of the program was Gita by Mur- ray Schafe, a Canadian com- poser. The setting of Sanskrit texts of the Bhagavad Gita is played with antiphony, as sound bounces from chorus to elec- tronic tape to brass choir. The combination of sounds was subtly created and it is a won- der the performers were able to find their pitches at all amid all the other activity. The University Chamber Choir was extremely competent, and the tremelo sounds of the so- pranos, combined with the wind-like sounds of the tape created an arid atmosphere quite appropriate to the text, The second half of the pro- gram was quite a contrast, and the audience was unprepared. William Albright, noted f o r his accurate performances of strange, modern material, play- ed Stockhausen's Spiral for or- gan and 4-channel electronic tape. This piece is a real exer- cise in fortitude, both for the performer and listener. -Daily-Jim Diehl Electronic sounds, vibrating much like s o m e o n e' s early morning gargle with a bottle of Listerine, exchanged corners of the auditorium. Albright's suc- cessfully completed task was to carefully combine his own im- provisations on organ with the taped material. He also was re-. quired to remember his impro- visations to make variations later. The performance was extreme- ly visual; Albright's m o t i o n over the organ keyboard illus- trated strange sounds over the speaker system. This piece con- centrated on sounds, and in- telligent interpretation. It cer- tainly did not deserve the ve- hement boos of somve rather up- tight listeners. The final work of the con- cert, Lutoslawski's Symphony No. 2, was another work which demanded a certain type of concentration. The orchestral sounds, reminiscent of a John Cage concerto, were beautiful in their serenity and oriental bliss. This work has a casual nature about it; the composer in a resigned way lets sounds drift about expecting a critical audience. Unfortunately, most people were too exhausted after the Stockhausen to pay much at- tention. Thursday, Oct. 30 High rents, huge deposits, restrictive leases? These are not necessary.
