Si In her never-ending quest for achievement, Annie (Quinn Cum seeks to become an overnight success at the art of magic in the episode of ABC-TV's 'FAMILY,' airing Thursday. Oct. 19. TV: The Family Viewpoint by Mary K. Adams "Dance With Your KidsTo the N.Y. Philharmonic" How do parents go about developing a taste for "good music" in their children? As in the old joke about how you treat a sick tiger, the answer is "very, very gently." Forced piano lessons and dragging unwilling youngsters to concerts are not the answer. Your offspring would rather be listening to their Top 20 tapes. Nowhere in today's culture is there a greater gap between generations than in musical tastes. To today's youngster, going to a concert means joining 19.999 other kids to see 'Kiss' or 'The Grateful Dead.' One subtle way for a parent to introduce a child to new musical experiences is to casually flip on the television set Sunday afternoon Oct. 22 for the latest in the 'CBS Festival of Lively Arts for Young People' series. It's called 'Movement in Music Or It's a Treat to Tap Your Feet.' For youngsters who think that the only kind of music fit to move to is found in discotheques, it should be a big surprise. On this program, hostess-commentator Beverly Sills and conductor Gunther Schuller demonstrate in an informal fashion that all music is meant to be moved to. They say, "All music swings if you let it." . Sills and Schuller scoff at the pigeon-holing of musical forms into ''serious" and "pop." Their point of view is that of the composer Rossini, who said that there are only two kinds of music good and bad. The New York Philharmonic swings and sways to the martial beat of Sousa's 'The Thunderer' as its opening number. Then it illustrates how ragtime evolved from marching music by following Sousa with Scott Joplin's 'Sunflower Slow Rag' and Igor Stravinsky's 'Ragtime.' It plays a lively program of waltzes polkas, Moorish, Turkish and Italian music, illustrating the rich lode of danceable ethnic music mined by classical composers. The joyous finale finds Miss Sills, Mr. Schuller and an audience full of youngsters clapping hands and stamping feet to a Scott Joplm medley. The taping of this New York Philharmonic Young People's Concert from Avery Fisher Hall at New York's Lincoln Center shows how television has a unique ability to bring the concert hall into the living room A television concert has an intimacy that an audience seated in a theatre misses. On this televised concert youngsters. can see the hands of the cymbalist, lips of a flutist, and the puffed cheeks of a tuba player. The face of the conductor is caught by TV cameras, while the audience in the hall sees only the back of his head. And, in the privacy of one's own home, you don't have to just sit and watch . . you and your family can even get up and dance. That's togetherness, and perhaps your kids will teach you new disco steps. Check your local PBU static or broadcast day and ti.-ie . V "1 - n -.1 ;l i i A - -i J mings) 'Magic' |
