Show UNIVERSITY ARTIST- LECTURE oE-FvIESProviding a more extravagant array of talent in the "great" category, the most commanding of Impres-sarios, the University of Utah Extension Division opened many a jaded eye in this, its forty-fifth sea-son of cultural education. Utilizing local campus facilities such as the University Choruses and the Utah Symphony, the "Artists Series" made pos-sible the moving performances of the "German Requiem" by these combined groups and prior to this, a Contemporary Music Festival by the Utah Symphony.Rise Stevens in a return to the Salt Lake Tabernacle, revived the spot in the local audience's appetite which she had set four years earlier. "Carmen" was joined, seasonally speaking, this year by Jan Peerce, who replaced the earlier scheduled performance of Guiseppe DiStefano. Again in the Iberian flavor was the firey, exciting Flamenco interpretations of Escudero and his company of dancers who staccatoed the Kingsbury stage with the rapid rhythms of the Spanish gypsy dances.The "Piece de Resistance" of the entire season was the great French Pantomime, Marcel Marceau, who provided unmatchable competition to an already superlative program of events and talents. |
