Summer Session 27 Summer Fine Arts Programme The Department of University Extension in co-operation with the University Fine Arts Committee again offers its summer courses in the Arts under direction of distinguished artists and instructors. Summer festivals, featuring student work in music, theatre, arts and crafts, highlight the programme. Summer Arts go naturaUy with the beauty of the University of British Columbia campus. Its art gallery, theatre, museum and workshops, set against a backdrop of sea and mountains, are ideaUy suited to both serious and recreational study in the Arts. The metropolitan area too, offers outstanding opportunities for entertainment and recreation. For leisure hours Vancouver provides swimming, sunning or sailing at twenty sandy beaches—the nearest, a five-minute walk from the classroom. Symphony concerts can be enjoyed under the trees at Stanley Park; several theatre companies, including the famous Theatre Under the Stars, present summer seasons of drama and musical comedy. Here is something for everyone, whether his preference inclines to city lights or to sea breezes. MUSIC PRACTICAL STUDY OF CONCERT AND OPERA LITERATURE May 25th to June 30th. Guest Director: Nicholas Goldschmidt The Department of Extension takes pleasure in announcing the return to Vancouver for the fourth successive summer of Mr. Nicholas Goldschmidt. Mr. Goldschmidt, who is the Musical Director of the Opera School, Royal Conservatory of Music, and the conductor of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation Opera Company, has in the past three years made a most valuable contribution to the musical life of the city. At the conclusion of his course each summer his students have been heard in recitals of a rare musical quality. His productions over CBU, the operas "The Bartered Bride" and "Orpheus" have stimulated an interest in operatic performances originating in the West. Classes: Classes will be practical, with emphasis placed on the singing and interpretation of concert literature and operas from the standard repertoire. Mr. Goldschmidt hopes, at the end of this summer's course, to be able to present "The Magic Flute" in concert form. Instruction will consist of individual lessons and bi-weekly group classes. Individual lessons: Students will be accepted by audition only. Group classes: Group classes are open to all, auditors as well as singers. Students taking individual lessons are advised to enroll, if possible, for group classes. Auditions will be held on Monday, May 25th, by appointment. Instruction begins on Tuesday, May 26th.

For auditors—$10.00 for the series. FIVE SUMMER CONCERT LECTURES July 7th to August 4th A course designed to give students a better understanding of classical music. The concert-lectures will follow the technique evolved by the Department of University Extension over the past seven years in producing similar winter programmes. Each evening will be devoted to a single composition which wiU be played three times, beginning with a preliminary familiarization, foUowed by detailed analysis and criticism, and concluding with a third presentation for final appreciation. This summer series wiU contain the following works: Bach—Concerto in G Minor Mozart—Concerto in G Major Beethoven—Concerto—Opus 61 Sibelius—Concerto Delius—Concerto Instructors: Professor Harry Adaskin and Frances Marr Professor Adaskin, a distinguished violinist, is Head of the Department of Music of the University of British Columbia. Beginning his concert career at the age of twelve, Mr. Adaskin later became one of the original members of the famous Hart House Quartet and for fifteen years toured Europe and North America with that group. He has taught at the Toronto Conservatory of Music, was for several years Intermission Commentator of the New York Philharmonic Broadcasts, and adjudicated many musical festivals. Miss Frances Marr, Mr. Adaskin's accompanist, is recognized as one of Canada's finest pianists. Her musical studies have taken her to Alma College in St. Thomas, Toronto and Paris. On the occasion of the duo's New York debut the music critic of the Herald Tribune observed: "Miss Marr's piano playing is very good indeed. Her tone is rich and singing, and her modelling both precise and intense." MODERN MUSIC Its Place in the Mainstream of Musical Evolution July 7th to August 6th The purpose of this course is to show that modern music is not an isolated phenomenon. It is the logical and inevitable outcome of the mainstream of musical development. In it are to be found elements of the music of the Middle Ages as well as of all succeeding periods. This vital connection between the old and the new in music will be illustrated through the music of many composers, by recordings and on the piano. Classes: Tuesdays and Thursdays, 12:15 to 1:45 p.m., Arts 100. Fee: $6.00. Instructor: Dr. Ida Halpern Dr. Halpern, who was born and educated in Vienna, made her professional debut as a concert pianist at the age of nine. Eight years later she gained recognition as one of the leading young artists of the time, but left the concert stage and turned to an academical study of music. Her educational pursuits led her to the study of music in Italy and Vienna, and in 1938 she received her Ph.D. in Musicology from the University of Vienna. Then followed a year of teaching in Shanghai University, after which Dr. Halpern came to Vancouver. Since her first course at the University of British Columbia in 1940, Dr. Halpern has been continually connected with the Department of University Extension as instructor in Summer School, evening classes and correspondence courses. At present, Dr. Halpern is the music critic for the Vancouver Daily Province and founder of Vancouver's Friends of Chamber Music. Her knowledge of music has won for her a personal programme "Musical Mailbox," regularly heard over the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. Dr. Halpern has, since her arrival in British Columbia, conducted an intensive research on the music of British Columbia Coast Indians. This work has led to a collection of over three hundred songs of the Province's Native Cultures. So successful has been her investigation that recent broadcasts have been carried by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, the British Broadcasting Corporation, and radio networks in Germany, Austria and the United States. SUMMER SCHOOL OF THE THEATRE July 6th to August 18th Canadian theatre has made remarkable progress in the last two or three years. Not only has there been a noticeable increase in activity but, what is perhaps more important, there has been a growing appreciation of theatre as a fine art. Both players and audience are becoming increasingly aware that high standards of performance yield the greatest satisfaction and pleasure; and these standards in the theatre, as in any other art, are only achieved when talent and enthusiasm are supported by training, perseverance and experience. To the many actors, directors, technicians and teachers who delight in fine work in the theatre, the Summer School of the Theatre offers a concentrated course of study and experience under qualified instructors.

Canadian radio has already provided them with many opportunities and has, in fact, done much to promote the art of writing in this country. With the establishment of television stations across Canada and the consequent increase in programme requirements, new fields and fresh opportunities will be available. The techniques of television writing are highly specialized and unfamiliar to the majority of Canadian writers. For this reason the Department of University Extension has considered it advisable to offer a short but intensified course in writing for television, to assist those who may wish to study this new medium.. The course will deal with the following aspects of television writing: the medium; the machinery of television; programme ideas; specialized writing techniques; markets. It will include also recorded and filmed illustrations of TV shows, and demonstrations of floor plans, editing, cutting and rehearsing. (A more detailed outline of the course is available upon request.) Students will have the opportunity of writing at least one script and submitting it for criticism.

ADVANCED PAINTING The classes in advanced painting will explore the fundamentals of the art by experiment with a variety of materials and their combinations. The approach to colour, considered as an expression of emotion or idea, will be made through experiment and practice rather than through theory. Composition, too, will pe studied without resource to the straight-jacket of rules, but rather as a part of the creative process. The classes are designed to develop personal expression through imaginative and free exercise although some consideration will be given to the problem of techniques. Study will be divided between stiU life, the model, landscape, subjective and imaginary subjects. Students will be permitted to concentrate on any one of these. There will be ample field and outdoor work for the collection of material in addition to studio time for its development. Problems will be assigned and criticism, both individual and in group, will be delivered through class discussions and lecture periods. The course will be divided into two sections: Section A: Primarily concerned with the artist's initial approach to his subject and consisting of indoor and outdoor sketching parties. Summer Session Section B: A studio course—devoted to a formal consideration of the problems of drawing, line, mass, colour, composition, form, and theories and techniques of contemporary colour media. Contemporary art movements will also be discussed. Students taking both Section A and B of the course wiU have the opportunity to develop sketches made in Section A into more finished compositions. Classes: Monday through Friday, Hut L12. Section A: 3:30-5:30 p.m. Section B: 7:30-9:30 p.m. Fees: Single section of course ~ $20.00 Both sections combined $30.00 Students will be responsible for providing aU their own artist's materials.

His return to Canada, as Principal of the Winnipeg School of Art, was followed by two years of study in Paris under such French artists as Lombard, Marzelle and Fernand Leger, the great Cubist painter. A bursary from the British Council enabled him to study at the Slade School in London and to travel widely through the United Kingdom, Western Europe and North Africa.
