The program will take place in the recital hall of WCU's Music-English Building. There is no admission charge, and the public is invited to attend. Pearson, a new addition to the WCU music faculty this fall, is an instructor of piano. Before coming to Western, she taught piano at Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacagdoches, Texas, and Florida State University. She obtained her bachelor and doctor of music degrees and certificate in performance on harpsichord at Florida State. Pearson received her master's degree in music from the University of Illinois. She has performed extensively in Texas and elsewhere in the United States and at the Boston Early Music Festival in June 1987. She also competed in the First International Harpsichord Competition in Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1982. In her WCU recital, Pearson will be performing on a harpsichord modeled after Flemish instruments of the 17th century, a fortepiano based on instruments by Andreas Stein (a builder known to have been a favorite of Mozart) in about 1770, and a modern piano. On harpsichord, she will perform Bach's Prelude and Fugue in C major, selections from Couperin's "Pieces de Clavecin" and two sonatas in B-flat major by Scarlatti. On fortepiano, Pearson will present Mozart's Fantasy in D minor, K. 397, and Sonata in C minor by Beethoven. She will perform Chopin's Premiere Ballade in G minor, opus 23, on the modern piano. One of Florida's premier performers will be coming to Western Carolina University.

Suggs is one of the most popular performers on the college circuit, and he plays before standing-room- only crowds throughout the Southeast. A Florida native, Suggs performs his own unique style, which he calls "Saltwater Music". This is one show you don't want to miss. Drawing on his north Florida roots and life-partly hilarious, partly serious, partly bittersweet-but always upbeat. DEL is an engaging, caring, positive performer. He believes that life can be enriched by giving, and proves it through both his performances and his involvement with numerous environmental, charity, public service and civil liberty groups. His integrity and concern have won him the respect of his peers in performing and student activities programming. DEL tours exclusively on the college circuit, and performs in concert at over 75 schools a year. He has shared the stage with such notables as Garrison Keillor (of Prairie Home Companion), The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Mac McAnally, Tim Weisberg, Gamble Rogers, Steve Meis- burg, Jerry Clower, Pierce Pettis, and many others. DEL has been recognized with endorsement agreements with Ovation Guitars and Peavey Electronics. These fine companies provide him with outstanding guitars and sound equipment for tour support. DEL SUGGS has the deepest respect for his audience. He is flexible enough to perform for nearly any audience- young or old, large or small, inside or outdoors. A seasoned professional, he is equally at home on stage in a small coffeehouse or in a concert hall. He is comfortable Student and Graduate Art Work To Be Displayed in Belk WCU will Feature Tried Stone Choirs in Black Gospel Spotlight A black musician who was once told by his public school music teacher that he was the first choir director she knew who couldn't read music will bring four of his exciting choirs to a university campus next Thursday to showcase black gospel music. Western Carolina University will host a Black Gospel Spotlight featuring Cornell Proctor's choirs from the Tried Stone Missionary Baptist Church in Ashevilie at 8 p.m. Thursday, September 22, in the recital hall of WCU's Music-English Building. The program, sponsored as part of WCU's annual Mountain Heritage Day activities, is open to the public and there is no charge for admission. The Tried Stone choirs, directed by Proctor, have been a favorite at Mountain Heritage Day on several occasions and were particularly well-received during their afternoon performance on the Belk stage last year, according to Black Gospel Spotlight organizer Eva Adcock. Adcock said four Tried Stone groups- the children's, youth, young adult, and senior choirs-will be performing Thursday night. Proctor is minister of music at the Tried Stone Missionary Baptist Church and has served the church for nearly 30 years. Proctor's public school music teacher, Ollie M. Reynolds at Stephens-Lee High School, once told Proctor that he was the first choir dirctor who couldn't read music. "It's a God-given talent with Cornell," one admirer recently said, "he could have used it for whatever he wanted....jazz, rhythm and blues, soul, whatever. Instead, he's given it all to the Lord." Proctor has conducted Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus" and similar classical works by Rote. Like Proctor, all Tried Stone singers sing by ear...none read notes, If anyone Works of art by current students and recent graduates of the art program at Western Carolina University will be on display in the Belk Building Art Gallery at WCU beginning Monday, Sept. 19.
