The Tarleton State Univer-
sity Jazz Band presented a con- Fine Arts Building last week.
The Czech jazz band is visit-
ing the United States to play at
the Heritage Festival in New
Orleans. The group’s program
includes items for the historical
development of jazz and new
compositions of the members.
The group, under the direc-
tion of Pavel Smetacek, became
a professional band in 1967 and
has performed several hundred
concerts during the past 17
years through over 90 tours
abroad and in the U.S.
The nine-member group has
received awards in jazz com-
petitions and festivals
throughout Europe. Other work
includes several foreign radio
and tv stations, films, records,
and collaboration with several
cultural institutions and
soloists.
The Temple performance
was sponsored by the TJC
Music Department.
CTOS Presents Requiem
The Central Texas
Orchestral Society, (CTOS), in
conjunction with the Temple
Junior College Music Depart-
ment, presented a special
Easter performance of
Johannes Brahms’, “A German
Requiem,” April 8 at the TJC
Fine Arts Building auditorium.
The Temple Civic Chorus
and orchestra members of the
Central Texas area presented
the performance which was
dedicated to the memory of Dr.
Clark Silverthorne, and was
conducted by Larry Guess, TJC
music department chairman.
Dr. Silverthorne was a staff
physician on internal medicine
and cardiology at Scott and
White Clinic. He was active in
community and church ac-
tivities such as the Temple
Civic Theatre and the Temple
Civic Orchestra.
Dr. Silverthorne is survived
by his widow, Elizabeth, direc-
tor of the Division of Communi-
cations and Modern Languages
at TJC, his daughter, Carol, and
son, Steve.
In a letter of appreciation to
the Music Department Dr. Sil-
verthorne’s family wrote that
the performance “was moving,
cert recently to a crowd of
enthusiastic TJC jazz lovers in
the auditorium of the Fine Arts
Building.
The 26 member touring
group came to TJC during its
1977 Jazz Ensemble tour, which
lasted three days and covered
eight schools.
The band jolted the audience
to life with some very spicy
music such as the Tijuana
Brass’ hit song, “Green
Onions,” which so delighted the
concert-goers they requested
the number played over again.
James Larson, director of the
band, recently joined the TSU
Music Department after several
years as an instructor at Sugar-
land, Tex.
Alois Piscor, assistant band
director for the group, displayed
his talent by playing the
clarinet to a very bouncy jazz
tune which was written and ar-
ranged by him.
