Women
in Film
Thank You All Very Much
will be shown this weekend as
the last film in Sheldon's
Women in Film Series.
The movie stars Sandy
Dennis as a woman who
attempts to come to her own
terms with an unwanted
pregnancy.
In the words of the series
coordinator, Molly Haskell,
"The film gives an insider's
lo6k at hospital bureaucracy,
which the Dennis-character
fights courageously in her
determination to have her child
by herself, and not become a
statistic along the way."
The movie was written and
directed by Waris Hussein.
Showings are at 3, 7 and 9 p.m.
Friday and Saturday in the
Sheldon Auditorium.
essiah' fops weekend list
There is plenty to do in town this weekend,
but possibly the best music will be the
performance of G.F. Handel's Messiah at First
Fly mouth Congregational Church Sunday
evening.
Far from being the "cast of thousands" effort
that has been the standard treatment of Messiah,
the First Plymouth production has returned to
Handel's original score and choric practices of his
day in an effort to capture the light, airy quality
of the work.
Utilizing a 25-piece chamber orchestra and the
50-member First Plymouth Abendmusik choir
with soloists, conductor John Levick aims for
"an authentic reconstruction of a performance of
Handel's time." Levick says that the performance
practices of Handel's time included both vocal
and orchestral ornamentation and flourishes, and
featured vocal cadenzas. The vocal score was left
open for several measures, allowing a solo voice
to improvise, sometimes transcending the limits
of the music.
Conductor Levick further said using a smaller
orchestra and chorus allows the reintroduction of
a brisker, fresher tempo for the music, which is
more difficult with the larger choirs featured in
most Messiah performances.
Soloists will include: Jean Thomas, soprano;
Judy Cole, mezzo-soprano; Mark Madsen, tenor;
John Brandstetter, baritone. UNL music
professor Harvey Hinshaw will be featured on
harpsichord, Steve Erickson on trumpet and
Mary Murrell Faulkner will provide the organ
continue
The performance begins at 7:30 p.m. Sunday,
and because of expenses incurred in preparation
for the concert, a $2 donation is requested.
University Singers
to give free concert
The University Singers' free spring concert will be held Sunday
at 4 p.m. in Kimball Recital Hall.
The singers, under the direction of Earl Jenkins, will open with
Leonard Bernstein's "Chichester Psalms," commissioned in 1965
for performance at a musical festival at Chichester Cathedral in
Sussex, England.
"Two Shakespearean Sonnets," written in 1965 by Robert
Beadeil, professor of composition and theory, also will be sung.
Other pieces include Franz Schubert's "Gebet," Brahms' "Der
Gargzum Liebchen" and "0 schone Nacht," and "Sanctus" for the
"Mass for Double Choir" by contemporary Swiss composer Frank
Martin.
Soloists include Susan Covolik, April Lowder, Robert Kastanek
and Rob McMaster. '
CSL hears
report
In its final meeting of. the year, the Council on Student Life
(CSL) heard a. report on .student use of athletic facilities for
recreation.
rST. memher Chin Lowe said he investigated the rationale used
- to determine open hours for student use of facilities (buildings,
rSCPSOTIOn equipment, etc.) and the rights of athletes in training to use the
l WVtfi vMi l W i facilities during those hours.
According to Dan Steller, Recreation director, Atnietic
Department facilities are owned and maintained by the department
and are loaned free of charge to the Recreation Department during
nonpractice hours. The Physical Education Department charges a
"small amount" for the use of its facilities to help with
maintenance costs, Steller said.
"Until there are more facilities available, recreation hours will
have to be planned around athletic practice schedules and classes,"
he commented.
Recreation has received no major complaints of conflicts during
open hours between athletes demanding use of facilities and
students, according to Steller.
"In some instances, the Athletic Department has phoned us
during the day and said they wanted to use the Coliseum for
practice and we've rescheduled or relocated intramural games, but
we've had no serious problems," he said.
