The festival's new Eiizapetnan music program is described by festival founder and producing director. Angus Bowmer, as "the most Important step forward since the festival's reestablish' ment after the war." The direc tors' enthusiasm is echoed by the festival association's board of di rectors and by music lovers throughout the Rogue river val ley. The festival's success In secur ing the services of an outstand ing professional director is one of the major reasons for opti mism. "A program of this 6ort often depends on the person di recting It for success," President Rodney Keating declares, "and we feel that we are fortunate in having just the right man for the Job." The new director is Hans Lampl of the Univcrsily of Southern California music de partment, an authority on an cient instruments and music of the Elizabethan period. Director Lampl plans to have the three groups of musicians he will or ganize here appear in one full concert, that on the evening of August 29. In addition, however, he will conduct a small concert orchestra and choral groups in "curtain-raisers" before each play performance and In other short programs, and will com pose and direct the incidental music of the plays as well. The young director studied piano, volin and theory at the Vienna academy, and received his master of music degree from the University of Southern Cali fornia. He taught for one year at Morningside college in Iowa, then returned to USC where he conducts two choral classes, teaches plnno, and assists In the opera department. He developed his interest In ancient instruments and Eliza bethan music, he says, while studying interpretation with the well-known harpischordist Alice Ehlers. Mr. Lampl is a U.S. army vet eran, having served for four years with an Army band in the southwest Pacific during the war. Plans for the inaugural year call for the establishment of three 'groups an orchestra, a small group of madrigal singers, and a large chorus. Most of the musicians will come from the valley, although Lampl will bring a number of music stu dents here with him and it is ex pected that a number of others will apply for parts in the pro gram. Meanwhile, the festival association office in Ashland is Hans Lampl listing both vocalists and Instru mentalists interested in audition ing for the director when he ar rives early in June, and the Tudor Guild in Medford is also recruiting musicians. Lampl plans to incorporate as many ancient instruments re corders and the like into the orchestra as possible, and it is understood that a number of mu sicians in the nrea are now learn ing the almost-forgotten art of recorder playing In preparation for the summer. Mrs. Lampl is a professional recorder player and will help her husband with orchestral work this summer. "She most nutritious part of celery is in the green foliage at the end of the stalks.
