might survive when we are gone.
D: In St. Louis, the city and county
ate considering adding the symphony
to the culture-tax-district. What do
you think is the importance of the
SLSO on the culture of St. Louis
besides preserving past culture and
establishing new ones?
S: The Orchestra culturally serves as
a link between past and future. More

than a museum does, more than a
zoo does. Music serves as the one
method of communication that ev-
erybody can understand. By thinking
of the Symphony in terms of the
cultural tax, it is saying that we pre-
serve for our community the high
culture that it stands for and the un-
derstanding that if something were to
happen to the orchestra all the other
cultural institutions would be pulled
down with it.
D: Considering that most orchestras
are currently running a deficit - for
example, St. Louis has a $1.4 mil-
lion dollar deficit - what do you
think the SLSO can do to gain more
support besides just the elite audience
which attends its concerts?
S: If you want to talk about total
audience, including radio broadcasts,
recordings, children concerts, over a
million people hear us a year. We
will only become elitist if we don't
get our financial house in order and
we must raise our ticket prices and
not provide as many services for the
people as possible. That's elitist. We
need to stabilize our financial picture
so we can provide more services for
the community.
D: What do you think is the impor-
tance of classical music to today's
culture?
S: Classical music contrasts to
popular music which is meant to
satisfy an immediate need and is not
meant to last beyond the time it is
written. Music that is written in
classic mold, although the definition
of classical music is vague... music
that is intended to out-live all of us,
to be around to represent our culture
after we are all gone.
D: There are so many other musical
influences on young people, such as
MTV. Most people are not exposed
to classical music. How do you think

classical music can be made more
palatable or more recognizable for
young people.
S: I certainly don't think it is un-
palatable. But I don't think classical
music is for everybody. Just like ev-
ery form of music isn't for every-
body. Everybody doesn't listen to
country music, jazz, soul. Everybody
gravitates to different types of music.
All we can do is to make it avail-
able... and perhaps, present it in
other than traditional formats. Maybe
we can present music with visuals to
combat "MTV syndrome." I'm not
here to convert anyone to what we
do. All I'm here to do is to present it
and make it available to people.
D: You once said that your role is
like that of a football coach. What do
you think the role of the conductor
is?
S: Yeah. In essence, I do all my work
when people don't see it: in the re-
hearsals. It is up to the performers to
get up there and do the best they can.
And it is up to me to guide them
along the way.

The St. Louis Symphony under
Slatkin have become recording gi-
ants and have garnered the most
sought-after prizes in Classical mu-
sic for their various works. They
have been nominated for Grammy
awards the last 11 years in a row,
recently winning for their interpreta-
tions of Prokofiev's Symphony No.
S and Copland's Billy the Kid and
Rodeo ballet suites.
"You don't leave here without

they have a world class orchestra and

America. Get ready, Ann Arbor,

---The old flute playing man/goat
Pan, Greek mythology's god of
abandon, has finally spawned a
rock 'n' roll name - in this Mt.
Pleasant quartet's amalgam of
polytheist/cinema jargon.
And the impulse of Pan the
Sirens is a convincing, assertive
brand of "no bullshit" garage-rock
reminiscent of the Replace-,
ments, early Joe Jackson, the ',
Damned, and Hoodoo Gurus.
Despite the band's "deficit fi-
nancing" opening bar shows for
free, the Sirens can proudly pro-
claim, "we've never had anything
thrown at us." Add the odd Guns
