Annual summer music festival opens
By MARGARET MCCUE
For the Emerald
Tickets are still available at the School of
Music box office for several performances
during the Ninth Annual Summer Festival of
Music, which will open today at 3:30 p.m.
with the Bach Cantata 76.
Each year the Festival attracts profes
sional musicians from around the United
States and Europe who perform works by
Bach under the direction of Helmuth Rilling,
eminent choral director from Stuttgart,
Germany.
Rilling has conducted the Festival since it
began in 1970 as a single workshop and
concert. The Festival has now expanded to
four workshops and 16 public concerts that
will be seen by an estimated 10,000 people
this year, according to H. Royce Saltzman,
associate dean of the music school and
Summer Festival coordinator.
The festival traditionally focuses on the
work of Johann Sebastian Bach because
“he, more than any other composer, has
influenced musical thought and composi
tional technique from the 18th Century to
the present,” Saltzman says.
Performances that are still open include:
the Bach St. Matthew Passion lecture
rehearsal, Friday at 7 p.m.; two chamber
concerts with “Musical Offering” from Los
Angeles, July 17 and 20, 8:30 p.m.; the
Bach Cantata 146 performance at Central
Lutheran church, July 16, 7 p.m., and all the
afternoon cantata performances. A few ti
kets are also available for the July 21 solo
cantatas starring soprano Arleen Auger.
In addition to these performances, there
will be two free, public recitals and a free,
public lecture on how to listen to a concert
and watch a play during this year's festival
season.
Festival harpsichordist Nina Johnson
and festival violinist Harold Byers will give
the first of the two free recitals at 12:30 p.m.
today in Room 198, School of Music. Friday
Johnson will perform alone in room 198 at
12:30 p.m.
“Every Man a Critic” is the title of the
lecture to be given by music critic Alan Rich
in Beall Hall at 10 a.m. Rich, music critic for
New York magazine, will be available for
questions at a public reception after his talk.
He is the author of several books on music
and former chief music critic for the New
York Herald Tribune.
While most of the concerts are in Beall
Hall, this year’s Festival also includes two
out-of-town performances, one in Port
land, and one in Ashland, at the Shakes
peare outdoor theatre. Bach’s St. Matthew
Passion will be performed at the Portland
Civic Auditorium on July 18. Mendelssohn’s
“Midsummer Night’s Dream” and “Walpur
gisnacht" will be performed at Ashland on
July 23.
Tickets for the Festival are $3.50, $5.00
and $7.00 for evening performances, $3.50
for the lecture-rehearsal and $1.50 for the
afternoon cantata series. Tickets can be
purchased weekdays 9 a.m.-5 p.m. at the
box office in the lobby of Beall Hall. After
noon cantata tickets also will be sold at the
door.
Cancellations, turnbacks and unclaimed
phone orders for sold-out performances
will be available for purchase at the box
office half an hour before concert time.
Phone orders must be picked up 48 hours
before concert time or they will be re-sold.
