The college library now has over
two hundred albums of classical
records. The bulk of the collection
was given by the AAUW in a record
shower last winter, and was added
to recently by a former Asheville
citizen, Mr. Pat Rudolph. The rec
ords are of the standard 78 RPM
and the new 33 RPM.
The record collection covers the
best and oftentimes the most popu
lar works from Bach through Strav
insky, including our own Gershwin
and Kern.
Many of the better known com
positions in the classic field are in
cluded in the collection. Among
them are excerpts from the Porgy
and Bess musical by George Gersh
win; the famed Scheherazade Suite
by Rimsky-Korsakov; Beethoven’s
Moonlight Sonata; The Nutcracker
Suite, themes from the Sleeping
Beauty ballet, and the famed first
concerto by Tschaikovsky; music
from the opera Carmen by Bizet;
The Grand Canyon Suite by Grofe’,
an American; the Grieg Piano Con
certo; excerpts from the musical
Showboat by Jerome Kern; and
some very fine selections from the
contemporary and controversial
Stravinsky.
Also in the collection are exam
ples of compositions by composers
not so well known by the general
public, but excellent ones neverthe
less, Dukas, Milhaud, Taylor, Smet
ana, Moussorgsky, Dvorak, Kabal
evsky, and Hanson, to name a few.
Of course, there are some of the
more outstanding works of Brahms,
Straus, Schubert, Chopin, Rossini,
and Mozart... all known and loved
by everyone.
