Week-long festival
opens with pianist
By Beteie Amnions
Mexican pianist Viviano Valdez gave his first concert in
the United States at UNL Sunday, beginning the Journadas
Mex snas, a festival of Mexican arts and culture to be heW
here all week..
Valdez played the works of Schumann, Franck, Schu
bert and Mexican composer MM. Ponce.
"I feel you can't interpret many different composers at
the same time," he said. He paired Schubert, Franck, and
Schumann together because, he said, they represent the
romantic period of music.
Although Ponce wrote in a later era than the other
composers, Yaldez .said he included Ponce's composition
because he is known in the United States as a composer
for classical guitar.
Mexican composers were not featured in his concerts
until recently, Valdez said.
"I felt I must first master the greats and then include
some of my national music," he said. -
Most of Valdez's concerts are in Mexico, but he said he
enjoys playing in other countries "to show them that
. Mexico does have artists dedicated to serious music.
"I feel that Mexico has a wealth of interpreters of class
ical music; that our country's talent is not limited primar
ily, to the mariache," Valdez said. "I think it is important
that the world get away from that stereotype."
Valdez will return to American in January to perform
at Carnegie Hall in New York City.
The Mexican festival continues this week with a lecture
by Dr. Manuel Alcala, director of Mexican libraries at
2:30 pjn. in the Nebraska Union, a lecture by Dr.
Fernando Camara-Barbachano, assistant director of the
Mexican Institute of Anthrolopogy at 10:30 ajn., also in
the Union, and a Concert of Music and Dance by Los
Folkloristas de Rene Villanueva at 8 p.m. in Kimball
Recital Hall.
