Band Concert
Williams was done creditably,
Mr. Fischer carrying through
very expertly in many tempo
changes.
Mr. Rascher's first number
was an "Adagio, and Samba'Lby
Maurice C. Whitney. This com
position was written for Rascher
and dedicated to him. It is an
interesting piece in the modern
idiom, not. very complex, with
all the dexterity demanded of.
the solo instrument The band
accompanied Mr. Rascher very
well. At times covering the solo
ist, although playing softly, it
proved once again that 'the
"mealy" tone of a saxophone
keeps it from rightfully being
classed as a solo instrument. And
this peculiar tone bars it from
membership 'in a- symphony
orchestra.
After intermission, accom
panied by Karen Fischer, the
soloist displayed a fine musician
ship and artistry of phrasing that
was a pleasure to hear. His tran
scriptions of work by Haendel
were expertly fashioned. We
were not impressed by the suite
by Tcherepnin.
Mr. Rascher claims to be the
"Paganini of the saxophone."
That presupposes a phenomenal
technique but your reviewer,
who, has heard Rudy Wiedoft,
must take issue with this claim.
Wiedoft was decidedly more
brilliant. Rascher's tone is
sweet and true but lacks the
great warmth of Clyde Doerr.
However, he is probably the best
one today, j
The band closed the concert
with selections by Sibelius,
Evans-Cailliet and King. Very
nicely in time, too. , . 'i
Thanks should be extended to
Mr. Fischer . for bringing Mr.
Rascher to the valley. We can
not have too many first-rate ar
tists. Those who stayed away
from the concert cheated them
selves. Parents to Meet
