J4. -it 4m w Tin f 6H y , s Salome will be dancing to a new tune as the UNC Department of Dramatic Art's Studio 70 opens Oscar Wilde's play, "Salome," tonight at 8 o'clock in the Graham Memorial lounge on the Chapel Hill campus. The new music for 'Salome' is by Paul Christianson, conductor of the Wind Ensemble at UNC. Christiansen has previously composed original music for a number of productions including "Macbeth," "The Winter's Tale," and "A Midsummer Night's Dream." While ChristiansorTs concept for the music is new, the Biblical story of Salome and her lust for John the Baptist has fascinated writers and composers for generations. Oscar Wilde wrote his play in 1893, so outraging the French Censor that a production with Sarah Bernhardt in the title role was cancelled. When the work was finally produced, the audiences were startled and ama2ed by Wilde's treatment of the already shocking story. Richard Strauss, seeing the work performed in Germany, saw musical possibilities in Wilde's play. Using Wilde's musical language as his basis, Strauss composed-' his now-famous opera with its electrifying "Dance of the Seven Veils." r i Luxurious - NOW SHOWING 1:15-3:50-6:23-9:00 WniiAM KYIER RAY STARK ACADEMY AWARD WINNER BEST ACTRESS BARBRA STREISAND C0t UWBlA PICT LIRt SRASf AR PROOIJCIIONS or BARBRA SIREISAND-OMAR SHARIF "FUNNY GIRL" TECHNICOLOR PANAVISION , $j Q no w- rV,' We are proud to offer this original, hand silk-screened wood plaque of the UNC T R HEEL.

Notify Henry Latane at 942-1230 or seduction- The music, according to the composer, grew out of mutual response of dancer and musicians. Jane Barrett, who plays Salome, shaped her movements to central melodic and rhythmic themes as the musicians responded to her dance patterns during the recording session. Both the music and production of the Studio 70 production of "Salome" go beyond tradition. Linwood Taylor, who is directing the play as a M.A. thesis production, is using black and white costuming utilizing masks, white tie and tails, and a sheer, revealing, break -away dress for Salome. Christianson has extended the color and intensity of his orchestration even to the point of introducing new instruments, such as an auto brake drum struck by a hammer, to produce his musical effects. In addition to Jane Barrett, the cast includes Philip Whitehall as Iokanaan, as John the Baptist is called in the play. Mark Smith and Patricia Snell play Herod and Herodias. Others in the cast are Frank Renfroe, Glenn Dunn, Ted Cougle, Roy Underhill, Edwin Vincent, Glen Williamson, Gene Ross, and Fred Corlett.

Hill sometimes daims to have invented. Among the many things fancies turn to are daffodils and outdoor music. This srrin? UC joins the pop. rock, jazz and folk festival bandwagon with the first Carolina Folk Festival Saturday, Aprill 8. The Southern Folk Festival will begin at 12: 30 and feature Jerry Jeff Walker at 8 p.m. to frame a day of music. This year marks the 5th annual south wide tour for the Southern Folk Festival. The group is one of indigenous southern folk musicians, black and white, whose concert will emphasize the various forms of musical expressions that make the South the greatest source of folk music in the country slave songs, ballads, gospel, industrial songs, blues, bluegrass and more. The kind of songs these performers produce are a living part of their individual backgrounds and personalities. There is Babe Stoval, a fabulous New Orleans blues artist raised in the Mississippi Delta. He accompanies himself on his unique dobro-steel guitar and sings blues and gospel in the matchless style of the deep South blues singer. Alice and Hazel are from West Virginia. They sing unaccompanied mountain ballads, many of the old Carter family songs, and the lively close-harmony bluegrass for which their native hills are famous. They also accompany themselves on banjo, guitar and auto-harp. Rev. Pearly Brown is a blind Negro street singer from Americus, Georgia who sings umrAM i. A New rbWINoT, WINS OUT HERE IN CD u It 1 Lr.

Brown speaks in a form of poetry shaped by his life as a rural southern minister. John D. Loudermilk is a singer and songwriter of national prominence who takes material from his own experience in the grassroots South to write such songs as "Tobacco Road," "Waterloo," and "Abilene." And there is James "Sparky" Rucker, a young blues singer from Knoxville who sings traditional music from the black South as well as his own songs. Jerry Jeff Walker has come a long way to be the man of "Mr. Bo Jangles" fame.
