  • Western Carolinian November 2,1995 Features HoiYiecomtag Show Is 7S Bust Photo by Sean Corcoran by Sebastian Fields StaffReporter I sat in my night class watching the clock. I just knew I was going to be late for the Homecoming local band concert. When class filially let out, I ran across campus to the U.C. Grandroom to find it sparsely populated. I looked out the window at the clock tower and wondered how on Earth I could be early when I knew I should be late. As I contemplated several theories of rifts in the space/time continuum I began to realize the truth. No one was coming. My spirits began to fall. I was really in the mood for some live music. I decided to stick around anyway because as they say, "The show must go on." And so it did. Native Tongue began the evening, giving the handful of onlookers a good dose of grooviness. A couple of people even danced— which was what I was there to do. Gradually a few more people materialized before the band's set was over. The next band were an eccentric group known as the Eggs. It is not often that one gets to witness a truly original band. They stuck to their guns and played only their finest material, though most of the crowd had dispersed. Despite numerous requests, the Eggs stuck it out claiming, "All originals tonight— you won't get any of that phony cover-band stuff here!" I left the show feeling inspired. I felt that I had just witnessed the true essence of integrity. Two bands played, not for the sake of the crowd, but for the sake of music itself.

Music History Students To Give Recital Each semester, students in Western's music history classes give a recital of music relating to the historical eras they are studying in class. Before each selection, students make short oral presentations about the piece about to be performed, placing it in its proper historical context, and giving a short biography of the composer. This semester music history students will present a recital of music from the Renaissance and Baroque periods. The performance will be held Thursday, November 2 at 8 p.m. in the recital hall of WCU's Coulter Building. It is open to the public free of charge. The program will include an aria by Handel, choral preludes for organ by Thomas Tallis, and several Baroque flute sonatas. Student performers include Janelle Flint, Julie Patton, Terry Pruitt, Judy Hutchinson, Norm Hastings and Chris Houston. For more information, call the WCU music department at (704) 227-7242.
