1Godot/ Films Await Students
By STEVE DIMEO
Entertainment Editor
Waiting seems to be a life
time preoccupation even for
those who don't know what they
are waiting for. If you’re one of
the few who want to wait for
something tangible, you might
try tire meaningful but obscure
University theatre production of
Samuel Beckett’s "Waiting for
Godot” opening tonight at 8 p.m.
The only thing that could be
said for certain about the tragi
comedy is that it was written by
the Irish-born Beckett and has
become an avant - garde classic
within the 13 years since its Paris
opening.
If that encourages large num
bers, the fact that it has an all
male cast of five may discourage
the few who wait for other things.
Performances will be held at
8 p.m. tonight and Saturday and
Sunday nights. Three other per
formances are scheduled for the
same time March 3, 4, and 5.
Tickets are $1.50 each.
Oblivion Offered
If waiting is what you want to
forget about, the Saturday night
SU rock ’n roll dance may be
your preferred destination. At 9
that night Paul Bear and the
Her semen will try to soothe for

New Composing
Piano music of a new era will
be illustrated by Franzpcter
Goebels, director of the Studio
for New Music in Dusseldorf,
Germany, since 1947, at 4 p.m.
Sunday in the School of Music
auditorium, during the first of
three concerts he is giving as
part of the Festival of Arts.
Goebels is a recognized author
ity on theoretical and practical
problems of new music and pi
ano interpretation.
The concert will focus on com
posers utilizing the 12 tone meth
od, which departs radically from

tem of composition by using the
12 chromatic tones of an octave
in any chosen order.
Concerts March 5 and 6 will
stress contemporary German
: piano literature and harpsichord
1 music respectively. Both are
i slated for 8 p.m. in the School
| of Music auditorium.
Goebels’ appearance for the
: Festival of Arts was arranged
; through the German Music Coun-;
; cil and the Ministry of
Cultural Affairs of the German
Federal Republic.
The public is invited to at
tend free of charge and to meet i
the artist in the rehearsal room j

Composer to Talk
On Today's Music
George Rochberg, a composer |
who wrestles with the problems j
of contemporary music, will dls ‘
cuss "Music of Today: Aural Fact;
or Fiction” in a Festival of Arts
lecture at 8 p.m. today in the |
School of Music auditorium.
Rochberg, who has written for
numerous American ensembles, i
including the Philadelphia Or- j
chestra, is chairman of the De
partment of Music at the L’nivcr- i
sity of Pennsylvania.
A number of critical and the
oretical articles by Rochberg
have appeared in leading music
magazines and journals in t h e
United States and Europe during
the 1930's and 1960’s.
According to Rochberg, his
writings on music have always
been attempts to define either a
problem or a position, motivated j
by a need to come to grips with j
his creative situation, and relat j
ed to what he is composing at the j
time.
