Gives IBreak To Children Having added folk sings, art ex- hibits, and play discussions to their roster in the past two years, the Arts Theater Club, Ann Arbor's only professional theater, has de- cided to give the children a break. Beginning Saturday, October 10, the Club will sponsor classes in creative dance and acting for children of all age groups. The Club will also continue the Chil- dren's Theater which last year of- fered four productions with all- junior casts. * * * GERALDINE MILLER, experi- enced teacher and one-time stu- dent of Martha Graham, will con- duct the creative dance classes which will be held on Saturday mornings and Monday afternoons. Miss Miller did choreography for several past Arts Theater plays including the unusual dance production of Ibsen's "Lit - tle Eyolf." Acting for children will be taught on Saturday mornings by Teresa Hughes, Arts Theater Club actress and formerly director and teacher of children's theater groups in Detroit and Baltimore. Registration for both classes will take place on Saturday, October 3, Club, 209%/ E. Washington. at 10 a.m. when prospective stu- dents will be able to sign up. at the By DONALD HARRIS Each year now for the past three, Columbia Records has jour- neyed to southern France, to the small, secluded mountain villages on the border-line between France and Spain, and recorded all the performances of the Casals Festi- val. Since the thirties when Franco assumed absolute dictatorship in his native Spain, Casals has been living in self-imposed exile in a monastery at Prades. The past three years, however, he has in the summer forsaken his hermitic existence, and led a Festival featuring the world's most celebrated artists. THIS YEAR the Festival was devoted to Schubert, Schumann, and Brahms. The list of artists in- cludes violinists Isaac Stern, Jos- eph Szigeti, and Alexander Schnei- der; pianists, Myra Hess, Eugene Istomin, Leopold Mannes, Mieczy- slaw Horszowski; cellists, Casals, Paul Tortelier, Madeline Foley; violists, Milton Katims, Milton Thomas; flutist, John Wummer. The works played are Brahms; Sextet No. 1 in B-flat major, Quintet No. 2 in G major, Quar- tet No. 3 in C Minor for piano and strings, Trio No. 1 in B Ma- jor, and Trio No. 2 in C Major; Schubert; Quintet in C Major, Trio No. 1 in B-flat Major, Trio No. 2 in E-flat Major, Sonata No. 5 for violin and piano, Var- iations on "Trock'ne Blumen" and "Die Schone Mullerin" for flute and piano; Schumann; Quintet in. E-flat major for piano and strings, Funf Stuke Im Volkstan for cello and piano, Trio No. 1.in D minor. All the works seem to describe what is memorable in chamber music of the romantic period, post- Bethoven and pre-twentieth cen- tury. It would be impossible to even begin commenting on the dif- ferent performances individually; there are 10 records in all. The list of artists automatically bespeaks technical excellence. No performance can be called re- strained; none are in bad taste. IT IS REDUNDANT to use su- perlatives; a performance such as the Brahms first Trio with Stern, Casals, and Hess, sounds exactly like what one would expect from such people, beautifully wrought, carefully planned, and enthusias- tically presented. At the present time Columbia is only issuing the records in a very expensive limited edition series, with the main issue for public consumption, without the fancy album and trimmings, due in November. If you buy the limited edition album, you get a bonus records and some pho- tograph thrown in besides cele- brating the fifth anniversary of LP. Mercury Records' recent long- play release of Serenade for Clar- inet and Strings by Prof. Homer Keller of the music school will be of considerable interest to local collectors who know Prof. Keller's music only from his late efforts that have been performed here- abouts.% The Serenade written during Prof. Keller's student days, is quite a change from his recent of- ferings like last year's Viola So- nata, but it would be wrong ,to cast off this romantic student work as unworthy of serious listening as it has its own expressivity and charm. The influences on the work seem to be Debussy, Delius, and NNW" .ter 8 NICKELS ARCADE PHONE 2-2914 ,..

The harmonies are richly colored with the solo clarinet intensely singing above them or softly sounding below them. The performance is by,the East- man-Rochester Symphony Orches- tra, conducted by Howard Hanson. Part of a series entitled Americana, it is performed along with works by Copland, Bernard Rogers, Han- son, Kent Kennan, and Wayne Barlow. All the works are for solo winds and string orchestra. * * * The architectural dub achieved fame during the early decades of the 19th century and are credited with important developments in modern architecture.

Local artists are featured in the Michigan Printmakers Society show from Nov. 1 to 18. The so- ciety was recently formed here by Prof. Emil Weddige of the archi- tecture and design school and Richard Davis, Grad. Prof. Weddige spent much of last year abroad and his litho- graphs are included in several im- portant collections. ASSEMBLED by the Museum of Modern Art, the Picasso show numbers about 60 prints covering 50 years of the famed modern's work, and will be shown from Nov. 29 to December 20. December's offering will be "Memorable Life Photographs," to be shown from Dec. 10 to 30. In the past the Museum has brought many interesting and im- portant exhibits to Ann Arbor. Last year a comprehensive Ja- panese collection was a highlight of the season, and several years ago a show of complete furnishings for a contemporary home caused considerable interest. In addition, the Museum aug- ments special shows with exhibits from its permanent collection ran- ging from Renaissance paintings to modern sculpture, painting and drawings.
