A FAREWELL BENEFIT

Chamber Arts Concert Premiere Students Meet with Rusk;
Shows High Level Musicianship Leave with Stronger Doubts

I

By TONI PRATT
Monday night brought to Rack-
ham Auditorium a premiere per-'
formance of Music from Marlboro,
sponsored by the Chamber Arts
Series. This group is but one out-
standing example eminating from
the truly unique institution of the
Marlboro Music Festival in Ver-
mont. Founded in 1950 and under
the directorship of Rudolf Serkin,
Marlboro has become the summer
habitation for some ofrthe finest
musicians in the world. There
they gather for two months to ex-
change musical ideas and explore
chamber music repetoire in a com-
pletely informal atmosphere. And
the results of their efforts became,
through Monday's 'performance,
an audience's delight.
From the opening bars of Mo-
zart's Divertimento in D Major,
K. 251 the common denominator
of their musicianship became evi-
dent: precision. Under the super-
for leadership of Alexander Sch-

neider,
violist
Robert
Levine,

violinist Oswald Lehnert,
Walter Trampler, cellist
Sylvester, bassist Julius
oboist Leonard Arner, and

French horn players John Bar-
roweand Earl Chapin combined
their talents to present an invigo-
rating, yet tasteful interpretation
of Mozart. The divertimento, be-
ing a light symphonic work which
allows individuals to exhihit his
prowess, proved a perfect show-
case for the talents of the group,
particularly Schneider and Amner.
The singing tone of Schneider's
violin permeated the entire work,
while the round and mellow sound
of the oboe proved a perfect com-
plement to it.
Schubert's "Five Dances with
Coda and Seven Trios" is more an
experimentation with sounds and
contrasts than with individual in-
strumentation. Bravura, romance,
scherzo and march tempo all
found their way into Schubert's
work. Although these moods were

Essentially the hour and a half
discussion centered around thej
possible outcome of present U.S.
policy and the conditions the ad-
ministration wants for peace nego-
tiations.
The leaders questioned Rusk on
what his conditions for a halt of
the bombing would be. Steve Cohen
President of the Colgate Student
body asked Rusk, "Do we have to
say 'you pull out before we nego-
tiate?' The situation is different!

two bombing pauses. We have al-
ready demonstrated our ability to
keep the country from being over-
run."
Greg Craig of Harvard referred
to three points for peace put forth
by U.N. Secretary General U
Thant and asked, "What incentive
have we given Hanoi to deesca-
late?" He also questioned the as-
sertion that the National Libera-
tion Front would not accept free
elections.
Rusk asked throughoutsthe con-
ference that the students answer
what concessions they wished from
Hanoi. He indicated that aggres-
sion fromNorth Vietnam into the
South was a challenge to U.S.
security arrangements.

Cohen said afterwards. "I think
the Secretary of State adroitly and:
purposefully avoided answering all
of our meaningful questions. His
avoidance of clarifying discrepan-
cies in administration statements
about willingness to negotiate, in-
dicates that we are not willing to
go as far as our public statements
imply."
The peace marchers at the
White House sent three of their
leaders to the White House and
to Capitol Hill to present a posi-
tion paper.
There was only one incident. A
man carrying a sign proclaiming
himself a "Polish freedom fighter,"
a supporter of President Johnson,
and a foe of communism, chained
himself to the White House fence.
He was cut free by guards and
hustled across Pennsylvania Ave-
nue by police to join the ranks of
the pro-government demonstra-
tors.

By RON HIGGINS
A new concert band designed
specifically for' non-music majors

Bands William D. Revelli. The
new group, the Wolverine Band,
will be directed by Dr. Revelli and
will emphasize concert music. Re-
hearsals will be limited to one
night a week, Tuesday, and will
last only an hour and a half.
Membership is open primarily to

music majors are also welcome.
Instruments will be available
to those who do not have them,
With 11 rehearsals scheduled, a
concert is planned near the end
of the semester.c
Although non-music majors are
eligible for all of the University
bands, many do not participate
because rehearsals are extremely
time consuming. Most of the pre-
viously established bands practice
three to five days a week.
It is also anticipated that more
students will audition for this
band since they will not have to
face the fierce competition of
music majors. The Wolverine
Band will offer a more relaxed at-
mosphere since the members real-
ize they are playing chiefly for
fun and enjoyment.
It is Dr. Revelli's hope that the
new band will prevent students
who enjoyed playing in their high
school bands and orchestras from
abandoning their instruments al-
together. The Wolverine Band will
enable students to participate in
a performing group at no expense
to their academic studies.
