Willamette Orchestra In Concert Tht final concert of the sesson by tht Willamette Orchestra will be presented Wednesday, May 23 at 1:15 p.m. in the Fint Arts Aud itorium. The progrsm will include seversl probable "first performances" for Salem: the Concerto G rosso in E flst Major, Op. 4, No. 10 by Pietro Locatelli; and a series of orchest ral pieces entitled "Dreams of Life" by Page Bailey, a Willamette senior in Music Education. Locatel li was a violinist-composer active during the first half of the lath century, who was noted especial ly for his technical accamplish ments with the violin. He is some times called "the Paganini of the 18th Century". This Concerto Gros so demonstrates also his ability as a composer. There arc 4 sob parts supported by string orchestra and continuo. Bailey's pieces,' com posed during last summer, are programmatic in nature, and call for a narrator in performance. This first performance will be con ducted by the composer. The remainder of the program will include the Mozart Third Horn Concerto, with Charles Peter as soloist. Mr. reter. a senior music ' Education major, has been a reg ular member of the orchestra all through hit four years st Wil lamette: the Overture to Rossini's opera "The Barber of Seville"; and the Schubert Fifth Symphony in B-flat Major. The latter work was especially composed for an orchestra of limited instrumenta tion. It is cast in the same dimen sion as the shorter symphonies and yet shows typical Schubertian characteristics in its melodic line and sensitive treatment of the woodwinds. The progrsm will be under the direction tf Dr. Willis Gates, pro fessor of violin.
