Jazz Fanatics
Stomp, Cheer
Music fanatics, -both of the high
and low-brow variety had a
chance Monday night to let go of
their emotions —go on a spree of
stomping, screaming, and cheering
at the Jazz Concert. The fact is,
some are still stomping over the
campus. But the excitement of the
audience was matched by the
musicians’ feverish playing and
casual clowning.
Drummer “ißaby” Dodds was
shy during his solo, hiding behind
his equipment and nervously
dropping the sticks. Deciding the
strain was too great, he stopped
his ' DRUM IMPROVISATION
short, announced, “This is too
much” and left.
Sidney Becket, who played the
soprano saxophone, was the most
sedate of the group, although he
did break down once and lead the
boys around the stage in a parade,
still playing. IHis performance,
said one of the many enthusiasts,
“would make a paralytic jump.”
Comments flew to and from the
stage in a sort of high-volume re
partee in -which Cecil Scott, on
clarinet, chuckled his way into the
spotlight.
Program notes, by student
James Frakes, pointed out the
serious nature of the occasion with
such comments as, “Sidney Bechet
will join the trio to show -the
people -how Gershwin’s SUM
MERTIME should be played and
will wrap up the first part of the
concert with DEAR OLD SOUTH
LAND, SWEET LORRAINE and
a fourth number by audience re
quest.
