Price contributed infinite amounts of energy, and exquisite expression to every note in each selection, and ap- peared to heartily enjoy herself while doing it. Perhaps the only flaws in th entire program were the program selections themselves. While each piece was performed inpeccably, the program lacked the classical arias which one would expect. Indeed, the high point of the performance was Price's gorgeous rendition of "Un 'bel di" from Madame Butterfly and her more traditional selections for her en- cores. BUT PRICE beautifully demon- strated her versatility, regardless. With the program's first half dominated by short works of Richard Strauss, she made shrewd use of her carefully controlled, rich voice and en- tranced the audience with luscious changes in mood, tempo and sen- sitivity. Price appeared to enjoy Strauss' "Schlageride Herzen" as much as the audience, delighting in every lilting run. Then with ease she flowed into the tranquil, solemn mood of Strauss' "Freundliche Vision." Price captivated the audience with her breathtaking, emotional version of "Un bel di," the most famous aria from Puccini's Madame Butterfly and brought many audience members to their feet.for an ovation. THE PERFORMER began the second half of her program with four Paul Eluard poems set to music by Francis Poulenc. Again Price showed her versatility, expressing just the right amount of romance and mystery that Poulenc injected into his work. After the Poulenc set, Price delivered five musical poems from Samuel Bar- ber with great intensity. She lent each piece the sense of melancholy and poignancy so necessarytorthe haunting intonalities of Barber's works.

DAT CA]INO OFFER YUMOE group of pieces, Price ended her program with two spirituals, only to come back for four encores. Giving opera lovers what they were craving for, she sang the final dramatic aria from Madame Butterfly, and "Vissi d'Arte" from Puccini's Tosca. Price should have ended with her thirdiencore, whose final note left audience ears ringing. But she came back for one more her "mother's favorite spiritual" - "This Little Light of Mine." After this number, the audience let her go quite easily, having had their earlier hunger for good opera pieces satiated to some degree. But in spite of the lack of many traditional works, Price soared through her diverse program to 'give a thoroughly enjoyable performance which should have satisfied opera fanatics and the uninitiated alike.

But what about Sunday afternoons? If you don't feel like studying (and who does?), I heartily recommend "Sunday Afternoon Music at the Loft." This past Sunday afternoon, the Can- terbury Loft featured a flautist and classical guitarist. They played for an hour, doing six pieces specifically writ- ten for or adapted to a flute and classical guitar duet. NANCY WARING, the flautist, has studied the instrument for 21 years. She exhibited an exquisite feel for her music through masterful breath control and amazing agilefingering. Difficult passages with trills and scales flowed smoothly. Waring's precise delivery was relaxed and confident yet also friendly and inviting. Michael Casher, on classical guitar, played beautifully when accompanying the flute and performing alone. On "Prelude no. 4 and Etude no. 8," both for solo guitar by Hector Villa-Lobos, Casher caressed the notes. He - con- trolled variances in sound and volumen, playing hushed tones and then skipping to lively and powerful passages. BEFORE EACH selection, the per- formers told a short history of the piece and the composer, which was a welcome addition to the program. Among the six selections were "A Sonata for Flute and Guitar" by Ernst Gottlieb Baron, "A Sonatina for Flute and Guitar" by Mario Castelnuovo Tedesco and perhaps the best-known, "Pavane pour une Infante Defunte" by Maurice Ravel. The Ravel piece, shortt and very sweet, exhibited especially well that the flute and guitar are won- derfully complementary. Waring, who received both her bachelor's and master's degrees from the U-M school of music, and Casher, who studied privately, have been playing together for about a year. They both project. a love of music and for the flute and guitar, which makes their technically accurate performance even more enjoyable. Their timing was ex- cellent, throughout the afternoon, but particularly fine on Tedesco's "Rondo and the Rondeau" from Jan Maarten Komter's Divertimento in G major. They followed and led one another in a playful manner, as if playing a musical game of tag. CANTERBURY LOFT provided just the right setting for. the small, cozy concerts. The listeners sat in chairs and on pillows forming a semi-circle around the musicians who were softly lit by track lighting. Unfortunately, the informal at- jamin Franklin. 0 mosphere also presented a few problems. Some young children, who should have been left at h6me, were an- noyingly noisy. Banginig heating ducts and ringing phones provided other un- necessary irritations, distracting to both the musicians and the listeners. Overall the surroundings were very comfortable and the mood was relaxing. The next concert is scheduled for February 24 at 4:00 p.m. where the Ann Arbor Consort of Violas will present an afternoon of chamber music.
