Artists series begins this fall at Beloit College With the start of the academic year this fall at Beloit College, tickets are going on sale for the 1999-2000 International Performing Arts Series. The series, which annually brings international leaders in the performing arts to the Beloit community, this year offers one of the most exciting and diverse schedules in years. Artists who routinely fill major concert halls and theaters around the world will come to Beloit College Eaton Chapel where audiences will have the opportunity to enjoy them, close and personal. The fall program, initiating the Year of the Arts at Beloit College, will feature the exciting hot Latin jazz of David Sanchez and the renowned a capella vocal performances of Anonymous 4. The spring will see internationally acclaimed pianist Leon Bates and two outstanding vocalists in an evening of Gershwin, as well as one of the rising stars of music, the composer Bright Sheng with an ensemble performing his music. The season will conclude with the acclaimed Emmy award winning actors Roscoe Lee Browne and Anthony Zerbe in a performance of poetry and theatre. As the evenings cools down in early October, David Sanchez will heat things up with his exotic tenor saxophone interpretations. In an era that has produced an impressive group of young artists, 30-year old Sanchez stands out as the most profound young saxophonist working today. He has combined his remarkable inspired talent, both on soprano and tenor sax, with his devotion to all manner of Latin music. He shapes his unique interpretations around the styles of his predecessors, going back to Colman Hawkins, Sydney Bechet, Stan Getz, and John Coltrane.

UpDate - Vol. 11, No. 2, Page 6 September 12, 1991 Up and coming Evening of Gershwin opens U.D. Performing Arts Series Three energetic musicians-pianist Leon Bates, soprano Eddye Pierce Young and bass-baritone Benjamin Matthew-will combine their talents Friday, Sept. 20, to present "Gershwin by Request" at 8 p.m. in the auditorium of Newark Hall. The three celebrate Gershwin's music in high style in a sparkling program of vocal and piano music. Many popular favorites, including "Rhapsody in Blue," "Fascinatin' Rhythm," "The Man I Love," "Strike Up The Band" and selections from Porgy and Bess, will be featured during the evening. "Gershwin by Request" is the first program in the University's 1991-92 Performing Arts Series. Single ticket prices for "Gershwin By Request" are $15 for the general public, $10 for University faculty, staff and senior citizens, and $5 for students. Bates, a former member of the U.D. faculty, is a familiar figure on the international concert scene. He has performed with the New York Philharmonic, the Philadelphia Orchestra, at the Hollywood Bowl and at the Kennedy Center. He has toured Europe where he performed Gershwin with the Vienna Symphony Orchestra. His performance of Gershwin in Rome with Ben Matthews has warranted him five return engagements to that city for both orchestral appearances and recitals. A native of Philadelphia, Bates studied with Natalie Hinderas. Matthews recently returned from Rio de Janeiro where he performed the leading role in Porgy and Bess for two months. His other operatic credits include performances with the New York City Opera, the Graz Opera in Austria and the Philadelphia Grand Opera. He has performed a wide variety of roles from Mephistopheles in Gounod's Faust, to Prince Itelo in Leon Kirchner's Lily. Matthews has appeared as a soloist with major orchestras in the United States, Canada, Europe and South America. Eddye Pierce Young has appeared in recital, opera and oratorio throughout the United States, Mexico and Europe. A national finalist in the Metropolitan Opera Auditions and winner of the San Francisco Opera Grand Finals, Young made her New York recital debut in 1979 to glowing reviews and audience acclaim. She is a member of the faculty at Sarah Lawrence in Bronxville, N.Y., where she offers master classes and coaching in conjunction with recital programs, symphony solos, oratorio and opera productions.

By Melanie Burney Inquirer Staff Writer CAMDEN - Tashaun King took a deep breath as he slowly took his seat before the shiny, black, grand piano. Although he began playing four years ago, Tashaun, 11, still gets a little nervous before a big performance. This time, more than a little nervous might have been expected. Tashaun was among four youths from South Jersey and Philadelphia selected to perform Tuesday afternoon in a master class taught by Leon Bates, a world-renowned classical pianist. "I'm honored. I never got to do this before," said Tashaun, a sixth grader at the Longfellow School in Pennsauken, minutes before his performance. Bates frequently holds such training sessions for young musicians while touring cities around the country.
