Show Local musician in faculty quartet BYU's faculty string quartet will give a recital tomorrow night. December 6 at 8:15 in the Harris Fine Arts Center recital hall free of charge. The performing artists in the quartet are: Percy Kalt, first violinist, who has studied with the world famous Paganini String Quartet and has spent five years touring Europe in concert. Barbara Williams, second sec-ond violinist, was the former concert mistress of the Eastman East-man School of Music orchestra. Dr. Harold Laycock, co-ordina-tor of BYU's music theory department, de-partment, and a past member of the Utah Symphony, plays viola in the group. BYU still lacks a resident cellist so each year the quartet selects one of the more talented students to perform with them. This year's student cellist is Leta Boyer, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Ed-ward H. Boyer of Springville. Miss Boyer is a senior at the BYU majoring in music. She has studied with Utah's finest cello teachers, and has participated partici-pated in two master classes in cello under Zara Nelsova, a famous concert cellist. She has also studied at the Mozarteum in Salzburg, Austria. The program will open with Quartet in G major, K. 387, by Mozart. Professor Paul Pol-lei Pol-lei will join the string quartet to perform one of Dvorak's most delightful piano quintets, the Quintet in A major Op. 81. The concluding number will be Samuel Barber's Quartet Quar-tet in B minor Op. 11. The second movement of this Quartet Quar-tet is the famous "Adigio for Strings.' |
