Senior Herring Presents
Piano Recital April 25
She is hoping to spend this coming
summer in summer school, also. As
for her future plans, she hopes to
go to graduate school in music.
While at Salem, Harriet has
worked on the Salemite staff, been
a member of the Community of Lay
Scholars, participated in the activi
ties of the Music Club, and sung
in the Choral Ensemble. She also
was a part of the student trio—
violin, cello and piano—that per
formed several times this year. She
spends a great deal of her spare
time practicing, but also finds time
to do a good deal of reading.
Harriet has selected for her re
cital a set of seven stylized dances
by Bach called Partita in C Minor;
Le Lombeau de Couperin by Ravel,
which is a collection of six short
pieces; and the first movement of
Tchaikosky’s Concerto in B flat
minor.
