The Oregon Symphony
Oregon Sym phony presents c o m m u n ity concerts
A free neighborhood concert will
be performed by the Oregon Sym-
phory Orchestra under the direction
o f Jacob Avshalomov, Wednesday,
April 25th, 8:15 p.m., at John Adams
High School, 5700 N.E. 39th Ave
nue.
Choirs from John Adams and
Columbia High Schools w ill join the
orchestra to open the performance
with the Wilhousky arrangement o f
the Battle Hymn o f the Republic.
M ark Eubanks, prin cip a l bas
soonist w ith the orchestra, w ill
perform the firs t movement o f
M ozart's Bassoon Concerto, fo r
which he received critical acclaim in
an earlier performance at Portland
Civic Auditorium.
Also programmed for this event
are the second movement from
M o za rt’ s Symphony No. 40, the
third movement from Dvorak’s Sym
phony No. 6, Johann Strauss' Blue
Danube Waltz and Les Preludes by
Franz Liszt.
This performance, and one at Rey
nolds High School on A p ril 27th, are
sponsored by the Metropolitan Ans
Commission, an agency o f the City
o f Portland and Multnomah County.
The Oregon Sym phony was
founded in 1896 as the Portland
Symphony Orchestra, and is the
oldest orchestra in the west and one
o f only seven established in America
before 1900.
In its early years, the orchestra was
organized by the players on a
cooperative basis, electing a conduc
tor from their own personnel. W ith
the exception o f the late depression
and W orld War II years, the or
chestra has presented concerts every
year since then.
Today there are 85 musicians un
der contract fo r a season o f 36
weeks. In the past few seasons, the
orchestra has increased its number o f
concerts from 48 to 120 annually.
D uring that tim e, the orchestra’ s
audiences have increased more than
those o f any other symphony orche
stra in the nation — by more than
290%. During its 1978-79 season, the
Oregon Symphony w ill perform for
nearly 300,000 Oregonians and
residents o f Southwest Washington.
In addition to its eleven regular
S u n d a y -M o n d a y-T u e sd a y n ig h t
classical subscription concerts in
Portland Civic Auditorium , the or-
chestra plays in the course o f a
season: five pairs o f Sunday-Monday
pops concerts, two presentations o f
Handel’s Messiah, three Sunday af
ternoon family concerts, four cham
ber orchestra concerts, tw o free
neighborhood concerts, three d if
ferent programs o f educational con
certs totalling 38 performances, and
several other special concerts featur
ing popular artists, all in the metro
politan area. In addition, it performs
many o f these programs on tour
throughout Oregon and Southwes
tern Washington.
Tickets for the free neighborhood
concert at Adams High School, April
25th, may be obtained from Adams
High School, 5700 N.E. 39th; the

“ Our theme this year is ‘ Back to

W om en’ s roles are changing in

The Religious Em, hasis Committee

issue entitled “ Contemporary Roles
o f Women in the Church.”
Recently, women have become
more aware o f denom inational
history, and found that they were ac
tive in the very roots o f their church
es. "O u r history is stronger than we
thought — there is a real historical
precedent for our participation in the
church,” said Patty Blair, committee
chairm an and organizer fo r the
event.

ing w ith women in P ortland,
Gresham, Sandy, M ilw aukie, and
Estacada to develop programs o f
home Bible study that particularly
address women’s needs.
On A pril 11th, the group w ill hear
from Reverend Marge Green, who is
currently serving as Community M i
nister with the Ecumenical Parish o f
Northeast P ortland and M a llory
Avenue Christian Church. She is a
member o f the Coalition on Women
and Religion, and chairperson o f the
Leader Development D ivision o f
Disciples of Christ.
Helen Cheek w ill address the
meeting on A p ril 18th. An active
Catholic laywoman, she also works
with the Coalition on Women and
Religion, and has taught a class in
the Women’s Studies Program at
Portland State University. In ad
d itio n , she participated in the
“ Focus on W omen" series o f work
shops at Clackamas C om m unity
College.
