Stefan Bardas. resident pianist
at NTSU, will premiere a num-
ber composed in honor of the
late Marjorie Fulton in his faculty
recital at 8:15 p m. Tuesday in
the Music Recital Hall.
Miss Fulton was resident violin-
ist at NTSU until her death last
year as the result of an auto
accident.
The piece. "Intermezzo Inquie-
to." was composed by Merrill El-
lis of the NTSU music faculty
at Bardas* request. It is not a
dirge-type number but rather a
lively, contemporary piece of mu-
sic. a type which Miss Fulton en-
joyed.
Bardas will also perform "Suite
in C Major" by Bach. This piece
was originally written for cello
and was edited by Bardas for
