Jrt ike event after
this weekend and
<rf the
National Federation of Music
Cluhi were dn the BMC
grodkds far theh tasad edp
ference and that always
a constant round of
. . added to the
regular tall weekend sched
ule. The Federated Ladies
who give so many BMC
(Scholarships) stayed at Beam
Nall at Brevard College but
hoM «B their sessions at the
Center. Following the con
cert Saturday night they held
a reception for Martha Ger
achcMrt (who won a Dis
thievished Alumna Award)
and the members of the BCM
faculty. Miss Gerschefski cer
tainly proved she deserved
the award (only the second
tfc» it’s been given) with a
beautiful plaving of the LalO
piece. It’s a big year for Lalo
at the BMC.
Speaking of composers, Ward
Woodbury’s chorus is singing a
Howard Hanson work Friday
night in honor of that estimable
American’s seventy-fifth birth
day. A composer in the tradi
tional mold, his works are very
much a part of our musical
scene, despite snobby opinions
to the contrary. For our part,
we put him right alongside Cop
land in idle worth and scope of
his achievements.
Marjorie Burke and John
McCrae threw a memorable
party Sunday night for the
benefit of the new stage cur
tain at the auditorium. The
guest list was long and im
pressive, the company and
conservation stimulating. Mc
Crae cooked the entree (cor
ired chicken with ten
bovs/condiments) and it was
delirious. Everyone was there
to help the Center and I
can’t think of a better motive
around which to rally a party.
The BCM is certainly rich
nd^h good friends. Next week

_rtce three hundred dol
lars short of their goal to pay

want a delightful evening
complete with good company,
tood and drink, come to next
annday’c benefit.
We caught the first ■ rehear
sal of “The Music Man” last
Saturday and it was * very im
pressive! Director McCrae has
a raid Winner tor himself.this
time out. David Rae Smith is
going to be nothing short of
brtltfShit as the conniving band
ssdesman. The Mother and
Daughter act to watch is Janice
Jaotfec and Bobby. Very charm
ing. Scene stealer of the pro
duction looks to be young Jim
Ryan from Hendersonville. He’s
a red-bead with freckles and a
terrific character lisp. Gretchen
Lund (who scored so heavily in
Friday night’s “Pagliacci”) will
add a whole new hilarious di
mension to her talent as the

Real goosefle'h makers. And
the finale with one hundred and
twenty instrumentalists march
ing up and down the aHes w 11
literally blow vour minds. We
leek for “The Music Man” to be
the biggest hit ever at the Cen
ter.
On hand to choreograph
"The Music Man” Is Barbara
Ferguson, a prime mover in
In Spartanburg Arts circles.
In addition to being a fine
dancer - choreographer Bar
bara is a thoroughly accom
plished actress. Her Mrs.
Malaproo in “The Rivals” at
Wofford was the single best
performance of the entire
theatrical season. Truly a
brilliant woman.
Wasn’t Friday night’s double
opera bill a delight? We espe
cially l’kcd seeing the kids in
the Opera Workshop have a
whole show to thenrelves. “The
Unicorn in the Garden” was
lust as delightful as the Thnr
ber tale that inspired it. And
veren’t Thurber’s cartoons a
delightful inspiration for the
retting by David Holcombe!
Such a talented young man.
^peeking of talent, Carol Ro
landi is impressing us all—in
cluding her eouailv talented
mother. Carol was just right in
the “Unicom” piece and was in
especially fine voice entertain
ing at the curtain benefit party.
The singing in “Pagllaccr
was sensational. Everyone
ernecia'lv impressed by
Vern SbinalTs big voice and
can’t wait to hear him in “II
Trovafore” with oor favorite,
Marisa Galvanv. That, should
be a show and h half.
Lee Luvisi certainly earned
his standing ovation at the Sun
nhbjjt. afternoon concert. He is
•SfflWpry one of the finest young
' pianists around, which he
proves again (as if he needed
to) at Wednesday night’s re
cital. After the concert we talk
ed to Luvisi at the benefit
party where he showed us how
his arm had knotted up from
fighting the heavy action of
the concert piano. Knot and all
he then sat down and proceeded
to play some delightful cocktail
type music ... as nice a guy
as you could hope to meet. He
plays at the Mozart Festival in
Lincoln Center during the first
week in August.
Short Takes and Double
Takes—We discovered that
there Is a duplicate to Ann
Vito’s dress which we so ad
mired. But the nice lady who
owns the second one isn’t go
ing to wear hers. Wish she
world. It’s so handsome I
wouldn’t, mind seeing double.
Looks like the BMC is going
to be on national television
... in a Kellogg commer
cial. (You an remember their
operatic “No more Bice Kris
ples”.) The Public Relations
off Ice is in conference with
the ad agency (Leo Burnett,
very creative, out of Chi
cago) which is doing a series
based cm Music Festivals.
The visit of baritone Vern
SUsaD was something spe
cial for tenor 801 MacDonald
and Mary Alice. Vern was
best man at their wedding.
