A Blow for Butler The Music Editor Goes to Bat for Concert Critic By MAXINE Bl'REN Statesman Music Editor It's time we music lovers had a heart to heart talk about con cert critiques. , e After 18 years covering every concert inai nu me m lew I relinquished this thankless job to Stanley Butler, assistant professor of music at Willamette University, student of musical criticism and a man with broad shoulders and brave heart. Some persons in the city, wisn to read saccharin rehashes of pro giams and take as a personal af front any suggestion that all was not hotsy totsy on stage. It would be far simpler for The an honest attitude and see how fair and really complimentary he has been; (b) try to write a bet ter one; (e) read again the story on a Sunday music page preced- 1 1 WVUIU !

Or we could send at random a reporter with an evening off, who wishes t exchange a story for a pair of free passes for him self and wife. Prepared Ahead But instead we prefer to hire an expert who studies the pro gram ahead and knows the music thoroughly before the night of the concert. He listens, with pen cil in hand, with a critic's ear, leaves comfortable uninhibited listening to others. He exits ear ly, leaving his wife at the con cert to get details of curtain calls and' encores and dashes home alone, to battle with his notes and write his criticism. He drives back to town, is greeted in the newsroom by the night editor who irowningiy re minds him that the hour is late, the space limited and he must cut out non essentials. Our weary critic carves a few paragraphs from his carefully written story, praying that all commas and pe riods remain intact 'toff, whirh may be Just your dish of tea; (d) write aa anony mous letter to the editor, there by admitting your own reluctance to claim authorship or (e) Ignore the whole thing and eat a nice breakfast, bless you.
