Quartet to feature marimba music
Group will perform
Friday at Kimball Hall
By Jeff Hampl _
Slaff Reporter
The Manhattan Marimba Quar
tet will perform Friday at Kimball
Recital Hall.
The group was formed 16 years
ago by students of James Preiss, an
instructor of percussion at thef-Man
hattan School of Music. Preiss
joined the group in 1981 after one
of its original members left.
William Trigg and Kory
Grossman, both original members,
are still with the quartet. William
Ruyle joined the group in 1985.
The marimba is a keyboard in
strument similar to the xylophone.
It is played by striking wooden bars
with rubber-headed mallets.
“It’s more versatile,” Priess said.
“The marimba sound and pitch is
lower than that of a xylophone.”
The quartet will perform pieces
from musicians such as Villa-Lo
bos, Bach and George Gershwin. It
will also perform Nicaraguan and
Guatemalan folk songs.
It is appropriate that the group
will be performing folk songs,
Preiss said, because the marimba is
the national instrument of Guate
mala and is popular throughout
South America.
The quartet’s repertoire also in
cludes medieval and Renaissance
music, Irish folk songs and works
by Mozart, Beethoven and Brahms.
The group easily performs such
a wide range of musical styles be^
cause it is one of the few profes
sional marimba ensembles in the
world, Preiss said.
“The nice part about our quartet
is that everything is new,” Preiss
said. “Nothing’s been done before.
We like to investigate.”
“We’ve always? viewed the
group as a classical chamber en
semble with a twist,” he said. “We
all have backgrounds in improvi
sation, drums, jazz and rock and
roll.”
The quartet will perform at 8
p.m. Tickets cost $10 for non-stu
dents and $3 for students.

“We hope to give films that ordi
. narily would never be seen in Lincoln
a chance,” he said.
The smaller auditorium also will
be used by the UNL film studies de
partment at least three days each week,
Ladely said. Those screenings will
continue to be free and open to the
public.
“We hope that this will allow ex
pansion and improvement of the film
studies department,” he said.
I An added attraction to the theater
will be what Ladely described as an
“upscale concession stand.”

available for rental, said Bruce
Hahn, a Video Station spokesper
son.
Although there are five differ
ent Video Station outlets in Lin
coln, Hahn said the Old Cheney
location was the only one that would
carry movies on a laser-disc for
mat.
TheVideoZone,5501 Holdrege
St., also has recently added laser
disc movies for rental. Manager
Wayne Jackson could not be
reached for comment.
Both Hahn and Abel said new
home-video formats were being
developed, including a 5-inch disc
(current discs are 12 inches).
It is difficult to go back to watch
ing regular VHS movies once you
have experienced a laser-disc
movie, Abel said.

“I guarantee you, once you
watch one of those with a surround
sound system at home,” Abel said,
“it’s hard to go back to a tape player.
“Once you hear true surround
sound, you will be devastated.”
