ROCHE FOU CAULD
Music Festival in the hills of Vermont. Old
and young alike come together to make music
for the sheer joy of doing so. Casals finds
the atmosphere quite congenial.
As well as being a profound cellist and
energetic conductor, Casals is also a com
poser. One of his most famous pieces is “El
Pessebre” (“The Creche”), which was writ
ten in 1943-44 to a Catalan text. This piece
was first performed in Acapulco in 1960 with
Casals conducting it. Casals believes the work
carries a message of peace to mankind.
Cellist, conductor, and composer, Casals
is perhaps the most honored musician in the
world today. He also is perhaps the oldest per
forming musicial living. Later this year Casals
hopes to conduct a peace composition which
he is working on with the help of his wife
and the poet W. H. Auden. The world has
yet to see and hear another of Casals’ works.

3ademic Dean
President of academic affairs.
Becoming interested both in
more challenging work and in
returning to North Carolina,
he came to St. Mary’s.
“I’ve known about St. Mary's
all my life,” commented Dr.
Miller, “mainly from past dat
ing experiences.”
Although he has no personal
advisees, he says “My job is
to help the students graduate.
I’d like to help everyone.”
Stated Dr. Miller: “I reaUy
enjoy being a dean, but I
wouldn’t want to give up teach
ing, either. I am thoroughly en
joying every aspect of St.
Mary’s.”
