" About 100 works, half Id them

sect, he said. Some:of the details
which.still remain to be planned

Ray Charles is a classical blues singer. He is a serious
artist. If he makes you rejoice and feel the rhythms that he
feels, he has communicated a wondrous emcition. And when
he moves you with his sorrows, he has taken possession of
your senses. He is probably the only serious musician to reverse
the usual procedure by attaining fame first as a popular enter
! tainer and then as a jazz artist. Nevertheless, he forcefully
brings forward the concept of the great blues singer with
bril
:liance. Ray Charles stands very much alone ;as a performer.
His concept and style of music is a completely personal thing.
It is interesting. to examine the role he fulfills in relation to his
colleagues in modern jazz. There seems to be - a singular func
tion for him besides his contributions to orcheitral voicing and
the shock-proof in a music that is undergoing constant change
and flux. - _
As Ray Charles says, "Everybody can understand the
blues.". And with his characteristic eloquence :he will prove it
here at Penn State. '
