- The Daily Tar Heef Friday, April 161971 Electro-piano sonata avidovsky. D To I villi lb. 1 1 (BIT o V C o n "1 r I f i ! t by Mary Ellis Gibson Staff Writer Noted composer Mario Davidovsky and pianist Robert Miller presented eiec." music recitals Wednesday night in a K .rts Festival concert. A native of Argentina, Davidovsky is associate director of the Princeton-Columbia Center for Electronic Music. Miller has premiered works by Davidovsky. Before presenting his compositions, Davidovsky gave a short explanation- of the nature of electronic music and its ' relationship to traditional music. "Essentially, if I were to oversimplify, there is no difference in composing traditional and electronic music," the composer said. 'The composer writing a piano sonata is no different from the composer who writes electronic music," Davidovsky continued. Describing his method of composition, he said, "The composer will accumulate in his memory whole groups of sounds and combine them in his head. Then he realizes them in the laboratory." Davidovsky added the basic differences between composing traditional music and writing electronic music is that the traditional composer indicates events others will perform, whereas electronic music is figuratively "frozen" on tape. An advantage of electronic music, the composer said, is "the composer can have an immediate sound response when he is composing." Davidovsky told the audience "the logic of this music doesn't come out of the tonal tradition." Commenting on the importance of the electronic medium itself, he said, "The composer of electronic music must conceive an idea that lends itself best to the material." The composer, he warned, .should not impose the qualities of traditional music upon electronic compositions. Two of Davidovsky 's compositions were presented on tape. The first piece, "Synchronisms No. 5," was written for five percussion instruments with electronic sounds. The second taped composition was a short piece of pure electronic music titled "Study No. 3." The third composition, ''Synchronisms No. 6," was written expressly for pianist Robert Miller by Davidovsky and combined taped music with live performance on the piano. t r LUXLXli eita Up silo in 'Carrboro by Sue English Staff Writer .

(Lit raiJt.K R clean-up The clean-up will be an all-day affiar, from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. Andy Hunter, a DU brother, is in charge of the program. The idea for the clean-up was attributed to Hunter last year. "A lot of brothers lived in Carrboro and were just tired of all the trash and unsanitary living conditions found there," Hunter said. Chip Clark, chapter relations secretary, said the town of Carrboro was "happy and enthusiastic" over the return of the men to clean up the town. Some of the activities the fraternity will engage in include cleaning fields, removing beer cans and other litter, hauling away junk cars, dismantled refrigerators and other major trash articles, and washing down the streets. All clean-up equipment will be supplied by the town of Carrboro. Some of the more strenuous work last year included moving heavy railroad ties and tearing down a condemned house. The Delta Upsilons enjoyed - a barbequp dinner, compliments of the :. town of Carrboro, held in the Town Hall as a result of the good job they did last year. Clark stressed that anyone "with any suggestions or ideas for specific areas that ... need cleaning up should turn them in either to the Delta Upsilon house or to the Carrboro Town Hall before Saturday. State to decide 18-year-old vote RALEIGH -The Senate Thursday enctea legislation setting up a special election in November on a Constitutional amendment to lower the nirirnurn voting sge for state and local elections to IS. The Senate voted 46-0 for the House bill on its third and final reading but only after narrowlv defeating an amendment which would have delayed the election until 1972. The Senate members tied 23-23 on the amendment sponsored by Sen. Jack Baugh. D-Mecklenburg, but it failed when Lt. Gov. H. Pat Taylor broke the tie by voting for the amendment's defeat. It was the first time this session the presiding officer of either chamber was forced to break a tie vote on a key question. Senate members also defeated an amendment introduced for the second time by Sen. Julian Allsbrook, D-Halifax, which would have given the General Assembly the power to change the voting age again if the people had voted in November to lower it to 18. Allsbrook said the purpose of his amendment was to allow the state to "keep in step" with the voting age for federal elections set by Congress. Sen. Stewart Warren, D-Sampson, opposed the amendment on the grounds the "people should make the decision" on the voting age qualifications. Nixon eases trade restrictions WASHINGTON-President Nixon announced a five-step program easing travel and trade restrictions with Communist China. Nixon said after a review he had decided on the following steps -none ofwhich would require new legislation or diplomatic negotiations with the Red Chinese government. The United- States is prepared to expedite visas for visitors or groups from the Chinese mainland. U.S. currency controls are to be relaxed to permit the use of dollars by the Chinese Communists. Previously, a Treasury license had to be obtained in order to send dodars into China. Restrictions are to be ended on American oil companies providing fuel to ships or aircraft proceeding to and from China except on Chinese-owned or Chinese-chartered carriers bound to or from North Vietnam, North Korea, or Cuba. U.S. ships or aircraft may now carry Chinese cargoes between non-Communist ports. U.S. owned foreign flag carriers may call at Chinese ports. Nixon has asked a list be prepared of non-strategic items which can be generally licensed for direct export to China. Reds demand total withdrawal PARIS The Communist Vietnamese ignored Peking's overtures to the United States and said Thursday they will not agree to peace settlement in Vietnam unless it includes a unilateral U.S. military withdrawal and the toppling of the Saigon regime. j Hanoi's delesate Xuan Thuv. who submitted to the 109th session of the Vietnam conference a slightly reworded version of the two-year-old Communist peace package, met with a prompt rebuff from the American delegation which accused the Communists of seeking a continuation of the war in Indochina. Chief American negotiator David K. E. Bruce told newsmen after the session he saw "absolutely nothing new" in the proposals which were not even discussed. Saying he was making "concrete proposals" to unlock the deadlock in the peace parley, Thuy said the United States "must" comply with three basic requirements if it wants to achieve peace. - hop ry I - J 9 TO 25 mM mm Al I M rO0 n OS 1 lai 4 La (Get Some Goodies) RUMMAGE AND BAKE SALE Old Time Banjo Pickin' : First Baptist Church .
