Like most college students you
are probably beginning to feel the
pressures and doldrums of mid
quarter closing in. Fortunately, the
University’s School of Music has a
great way to break this monotony
without breaking your pocketbook.
The 1990-91 Second Thursday
Concert Series, sponsored by the
UGA School of Music, offers an ex
citing expanded program with two
different concert series to choose
from.
Series A includes “An American
Salute” by the UGA Symphony Or
chestra on Nov. 8, a program of
chamber music by the Georgia
Woodwind Quintet on Jan. 10,
music for brass, organ and percus
sion Feb. 14-15 entitled “A Sonic
Spectacular” and ‘The Marriage of
Figaro,” an opera in honor of the
Mozart Bicentennial, on April 11-
13.
‘The upcoming ‘An American
Salute’ includes some wonderful
folk music by Aaron Copland,
Morton Gould’s ‘American Salute,’
Barber’s ‘2nd Essay* and Charles
Ive’s The Unanswered Question,’ ”
junior music major and orchestra
violinist Amy Ellington said.
"This is a critical point in Athens/Clarke
County. Give the new government the
foundation it needs to be successful
now and in the future."

‘The ‘2nd Essay* is an inter
esting piece,” Andy Carlson, senior
music performance major and con
cert master of the UGA Orchestra,
said. “It shows off the soloist in the
winds with intense and furious al
legro sections.”
“An American Salute” will fea
ture Ronald Wain, a UGA faculty
member and guest flute soloist,
Lorrie Sposato, public relations di
rector for the music department,
said. “He will be featured with a
harpist in ‘Serenade for Solo Flute,
Harp and Strings,’ by Howard
Hanson (which was) written as a
wedding present for his wife.”
Series B offers all of the pro
grams in Series A plus “A
Christmas Celebration” by the
University orchestra and choruses
on Nov. 29-30 and “Symphonic
Pops” by the UGA Symphony Or
chestra which features guest con
ductor Richard Kaufman, director
of music for MGM/United Artists
in Los Angeles.
‘The talent in the UGA music
department and faculty is one of
the best kept secrets around,” Spo
sato said. ‘The University is func
tioning on this professional level
making it possible for people to
walk a few blocks to hear and see
incredible music and musicians.”
“Proceeds from the concert se
ries go to the music school to gen
erate funds for scholarships and to
help bring in fine performers from
other parts of the country and even
other countries, said Carlson.
“It is well worth the money when
you consider what it costs to see
the Atlanta Symphony play in At
lanta. It is unique to have such a
fine program here in Athens.”
Season tickets for Series A are
$20 for general admission and $10
for students and senior citizens.
Series B season tickets are $30 for
general admission and $15 for stu
dents and senior citizens.
Individual tickets are $6 for gen
eral admission and $3 for students
and senior citizens.
Tickets can be purchased at Rm.
203 of the Fine Arts building or at
the door after 7 p.m. on the night of
the performance.

Woody Guthrie’s life
remembered tonight
By MATTHEW LOVING
Contributing Writer
As the economists scream out
tidings of recession, songs from a
long ago depression make their
way to Athens tonight in the form
of “Woody Guthrie’s American
Song” at 8 p.m. in the Fine Arts
Auditorium.
America’s favorite minstrel,
Woody Guthrie, may be long gone
but a show about his life and
music is currently on tour nation
wide.
Guthrie was a man who trav
eled the entire country, capturing
the spirit of the men and women
who worked to survive the worst
economic failure the U.S. has
ever experienced.
During Guthrie’s travels as a
lone troubadour wrote hundreds
of songs about the state of the
American people. His songs re
flect the hope and inspiration of a
battered society.
As a director, Glazer attempts
to inform the public more thor
oughly about the life and times of
Woody Guthrie.
He said he “set out to create an
ensemble musical which would
explore the balladeer’s world, get
people singing his songs and
thereby celebrate his formidable
talent.
The musical details a trip
Guthrie made to California in the
1930s and one to New York City
in the 1940s.
Glazer, using Guthrie’s books
and articles together with his
own personal memories, has
written a play that pays tribute
not only to Guthrie’s music, but
also to his personality.
The play begins in Guthrie’s
native state of Oklahoma and
takes the audience on a musical
trek incorporating such tunes as
“Nine Hundred Niles,” “Bound
for Glory” and ‘This Land is Your
Land.”
Tickets for this entertaining and
interesting look at America and
one of its greatest folk heroes are
$3 for students and $5 for non
students.
