  • The Western Carolinian Page 6 Thursday, November 19, 1992 Features Volume 58 Number 14 Toe Jam: making it big Blake Edwards StaffWriter Toe Jam is more than the smelly stuff between your toes. It is a band quickly rising on the lists of the ever-so-popular college-based musical groups. The group consists of Dave Welch, vocalist; guitar player, Bill Albrecht; bass player, Grian Altman; all from WCU, and drummer Bob Albrecht from Virginia. This band plays at many parties and functions around campus, but they gained campus-wide popularity by opening for The Connells, an alternadve band who also got their start in college. They competed against several other bands, also in the running for the opening act for The Connells, by sending in a demo tape and were Waverly Consort performs at WCU Colleen Vasconcelles StaffWriter The Waverly Consort, a critically acclaimed music ensemble from New York, performed "The Year 1492: Spanish Music in the Age of Columbus" in the recital hall of the Music-English Building on Thursday, Nov. 12. Eugene Enrico, Professor of Music History at The University of Oklahoma and renowned musicologist and filmmaker, gave a preconcert lecture exploring the musical repercussions of the events during 1492. The lecture, sponsored in part by a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, was held in the Music-English Building Recital Hall that afternoon. The Concert's program was designed as a salute to the 500lh anniversary of Columbus' historic voyage to the New World. "The concert is a musical portrait of the year 1492," Enrico said. "Most of the music in the concert is Spanish, but two of the songs are Italian." The concert included Moorish-influenced songs recounting the fall of Granada, Christian Court and chapel music, Arab and Andalusian music, and Spanish-influenced songs from the New World. thrilled to be chosen. Dave Welch, lead singer, said that playing for The Connells was "an incredible rush. It was a bigger experience than we would've ever hoped for at this point." Toe Jam has been known to play at the Sigma Chi house, several parties in and around campus," Weekend at Wikes," and they have also played several parties in Virginia. The name Toe Jam was derived at an Open Mike Nite at WCU. As the group prepared to go on stage, the announcer wanted a name to introduce them by, and the group decided that Toe Jam was more suitable than Belly-Button Fuzz. The group has been writing their own songs for almost a year, but they also play various types of music such as The Red Hot Chilli Peppers, 70' s funk and have even been known to play the "Juicy Fruit" song upon request. Their style is very diverse. They play music to suit almost every one's taste. They have even thought of doing some numbers by The Carolinian photo by Mark Mitchell Toe Jam, a band comprised mostly of Western students, opened for The Connells on November 4 at the Ramsey Center. Connells, but this is still in the early stages of development. Toe Jam is in the process of recording a demo tape in hopes of getting aclub tour or record contract. Right now however, they are avail able for hire by any campus club, organization or for the Saturday night bash that you might be planning. Enrico is producer of the 30-installment "Music of the Masters" radio series and several television films and documentaries. His "1492: A Portrait in Music" features the Waverly Consort and is scheduled to be aired by PBS this year. Carolinian photo by Rex Hall The Waverly Consort performed Thursday, Nov. 12 at the Music-English Auditorium. They have been performing together since 1964. Pearson gives high-variety recital Pearson performs on the harpsichord, fortepiano and grand piano Cheryl Cheney StaffWriter Lillian B. Pearson a member of the Western Carolina University music faculty, performed a concert of musical selections from several historical periods performed on authentic instruments. Pearson performed on a harpsichord, fortepiano and a modem grand piano in a solo concert last Thursday night. The program opened with selections from Pieces de Clavecin by Jean-Philipe Rameau, a French composer of the Baroque period. The harpsichord she used during the performance wasbuiltby William David of Boston in 1978. It was modeled on Flemish instruments from the late 17th century. "The harpsichord makes its sounds through a plucking mechanism," Pearson said. Pearson performed an early Beethoven Sonato — Op. 10, No. 2 in F major — on a fortepiano. The fortepiano was built by John Lyom of Michigan and is patterned after those by Johann Andreas Stein, one of Mozart's favorite builders. It is representative of instruments of the 18th century. "A fortepiano is an early piano that makes its sounds with a hammering mechanism," she commented. The concert also included works by Chopin and Debussy performed on the modern grand piano. "Playing the harpsicord and the fortepiano is different from playing a modem piano. It takes less strength because the key beads are shallow, and the action is lighter, but it takes more control to be able to play the two," Pearson said. The proceeds from the concert, which was part of the WCU Faculty Recital Series, were placed in an endowed music student scholarship fund. The initial goal of the fund is to reach $20,000. Part of the interest from ihe fund will be used to support the musicperformance scholarships, and part will be used for the growth of the fund. Pearson has been a member of the WCU faculty since 1988.

Over the past 28 years, it has been at the forefront of the revival of early musical styles. The group performs purely instrumental music and vocal selections from the 10lh through the 18th centuries. The Waverly Consort has performed across North Americaand has toured South America, Great Britain and Asia, appearing at major international festivals. The ensemble has also recorded several albums— six on the CBS Masterworks label, including the best-selling "A Renaissance Christmas Celebration." The Waverly Consort has won rave reviews from many national publications for its performances. Time magazine has been quoted as saying "No other group approaches the style ... of the Waverly Consort." Newsweek has also been quoted as applauding the group as "the leader in the field.... If they didn't play with the Waverly's gusto and reverence back in the 14"1 century, they should have." The lectures, concerts, and exhibitions series programs are supported in part by the Jackson County Arts Council. Chaplain's Column: Thanksgiving The Chaplain's Column is written by alternating campus ministers Thanksgiving Day has become somewhat of a secular celebration in our culture today. Its roots and fiber originate though on a more holy and "whole" foundation, to thank God for all the blessings He hasprovideduswithinourlives. The pilgrims to the "New World" celebrated their newfound home; they gave thanks for the food they were able to grow and provide for their families and friends; they were conscious that without God's providence nothing would be possible. Our celebration, on the other hand, usually focuses around the family which is good and proper; however, how many of us truly give God the credit, thanks, honor and praise for all the goodness we have? How many of us' focus our celebration on "thanksgiving" for God's providence? Do we thank God for the good things and for the not so good things? Do we thank God for those things which seem bad but really cause us to grow in ways we might not have without those incidents in our lives? This Thanksgiving Day, let us all try our "darndest" (sic) to make an effort to truly give God thanks for all we have, all we are and all we have experienced in our lives thus far. We have so very much to be thankful for. Many people in our society today do not have the opportunity to obtain an education of higher learning. We, here at Western Carolina University, not only have the opportunity for an education but also to do so in an aesthetic environment! There are those who are hungry every waking moment of their lives. Let us thank God!!!
