April in Paris ... An Evening in Rose Court
i
If you can't visit Paris in April, do the next best
thing and join us when WBST hosts its first wine
tasting party this month.
The Judges Chamber and Rose Court will be the
site for HAprii in Paris,H which begins at 5 p.m. on
Wednesday, April 17. Six fine French wines-three
white and three red- ha\'e been selected for the
occasion by Big Red Liquors. A table will be set up for
each wine so that you can taste each one and make
notes about your preferences. You can e\'en order
wine, if you choose, at a special discount.
To clear your palate between wine selections,
there'll be fresh French bread, supplied by the Yeast of
All Pastry Shop, and se\'eral interesting cheeses for you
to sample. For your listening pleasure, musical
entertainment will be provided.
The drawing for a \'ery special door prize gift,
which has been generously donated by Jeffrey Carter
Jewelers, will be held at the end of the party. (All
registrants will be eligible to win, even if they are not
in attendance.) The lucky winner of the drawing takes
home a fourteen<arat gold, hollow puffed heart
pendant, with a filigree design, which would retail for
$150.
We've scheduled this party at a time which we
think will be convenient for busy people like
yourselves. You can come directly from work and leave
early enough to enjoy a relaxing evening at home, or
go on to other scheduled activities. There's an acre
and a half of free parking behind Rose Court (off
Howard Street), in addition to parking along Charles
and Walnut Plaza.
Reservations for "April in Paris;' including the wine,
cheese, French bread, door prize drawing, and
entertainment-not to mention the fine company of
other WBST listE~ners-are only $6.00 per person. To
register, simply ~end in your check or money order

Karl Haas
Classical Music Guru for Millions
9 A.M. Monday-Friday
beginning February 4
:.
On his first date after arriving in the
United States as a young refugee from
Hitler's Germany in 1936, Karl Haas made a
fundamental mistake.
indeed almost without thinking about it, he
has slipped into a groove as musical guru
for millions, most of whom are ordinary
listeners, not musical sophisticates.
Haas had some school-bred know ledge
of English grammar but was anxious to
improve his vocabulary. So he asked a
young lady one evening to make a point of
correcting his English. She did so dutifully, but when Haas asked her for a
second date, he found her uninterested.
Giving grammar lessons evidently was not
her idea of a smashing good time.
He delights in making contact with this
vast public, a group often scorned by the
formal concert and performance industry.
Haas's greatest thrill comes with the letter
from someone who never knew or cared anything about classical music until seduced
into the subject unawares by a Haas broadcast.
Smart young fellow that he was, Haas;
learned from that blunder. He learned the
distinction between outright education and
the kind of entertainment that makes learning painless. It is a distinction that is well
understood today by Haas's vast radio follow ing on 130 stations in the United States
and 'several hundred ' overseas.
One such came one day from three
phone linemen in Ohio who confessed
'never used to dig that stuff ' until
began hearing him while they were atop
phone poles.
telethey
they
tele-
I.
don't ever set out to educate anyone, I said Haas. II do what I do because I
love it. And I have learned over the years
that nothing is too elementary.
Haas conducts what is doubtless the
most popular Classical music show on U.S.
radio, with the exception of the Metropolitan Opera's Saturday matinee broadcasts.
His Adventures in Good Music, on which
he mixes instructive but informal and lowkey commentary with illustrative records
and an occasional live piano solo, has been
a radio staple since 1959, when it began
live on WJR in Detroit. Haas still regards
WJR as his flagship station, though he now
spends most of his time in New York and
the actual duplicating and distribution of
his broadcast tapes is handled by WCLV,
his Cleveland outlet.
He is much in demand for personal
appearances, so has perfected a technique
of taping his daily program wherever he
happens to be on the road. The tapes are
then forwarded to WCLV for duplication
and mailing, which is why much of his vast
fan mail arrives at the 15th floor of the Terminal Tower. When there he finds letters
awaiting him from such cultural outposts as
Corvallis, Ore., for example.
Haas regards himself as neither 'educatori nor 'popularizer' in music. Both terms
are often applied to him by others, sometimes in admiration, sometimes as epithets.
He sees himself simply as a man doing something he love:s. Without conscious effort,
Karl Haas
'The mail that means the most to me is
that which says, 'what a wonderful discovery! I never knew about this before. 1I
Wh~m Haas was once asked to do an
Adventures in Good Music series in his
native German for broadcast over Radio
Free Berl in, he was amazed to find exactly
the same tenor recurring in mail smuggled
out of East Germany.
'We should, I Haas said, 'use every
opportun ity to take the stuffiness and formality out of music. I t is the best loved and
least understood of all the arts. Anything
we can do, not to 'popularize' it, but to
make people feel more comfortable with it,
we should do. II

"What's this, an all-Mozart program? Haven't I heard enough Mozart
for one year?" This may very well be your initial reaction to the upcoming
program of the Muncie Symphony Orchestra. While the answer to your
first question is a simple "yes," your response to the second should be a
most enthusiastic "no!"
It is true that Mozart has seemingly saturated the classical music market
this year, the bicentennial anniversary of the great composer's death.
Every one of his compositions is now available on compact discs and in
scholarly editions. Books and articles have been written, radio and
television programs are receiving considerable airplay, and
concert series of every kind reflect the public's fascination with
his music. And in a move that staggers the imagination, the city
of New York is hosting a Herculean effort to perform every one
of his more than six-hundred plus compositions.
Yet we can never get enough
Mozart. We are charmed by the
spirit of his serenades and
,
divertimentos, uplifted by his
masses and the (I)Requiem(I),
moved by his sensitive
portrayal of the human

con.dition in .his operas,
excited by his
symphonies, amazed by the ease with which he produced his many great
works and, finally, saddened by his premature death at the age of thirtyfive. Yes, we as a community of music lovers must plead guilty to the
charge of whole-hearted addiction to the music of Wolfgang Amadeus
Mozart.
The above-mentioned Muncie Symphony Orchestra concert, an
"Amadeus Bicentennial," will feature the many and varied facets of
Mozart's music. As an added bonus, each of the three works on the
program has an aura of mystery about it. A closer view reveals the
intriguing qualities of these mysteries.
The Symphony No. 39 in E-flat major, K. 543 was composed in 1788
for no known occasion. This m~y not s~em odd at first, until one
remembers that Mozart was an extremely practical man on the subject of
his music, composing almost exclusively to commissions. Composers in
his day wrote symphonies for festive occasions. The concept of a
symphony as "a ton~1 allegory of the life of man" (a reference to Mahler's
Symphony No.2) was a complete anathema to the spirit of the
Enlightenment. Yet we have no record of a commission or performance
for Mozart's Symphony No. 38, nor for its companion works, the G-minor
and the so-called "Jupiter" symphonies. Some writers of fanciful
imagination have suggested that these three symphonies, his last in this
genre, grew out of an inner compulsion to express deep emotions with
no view toward public consumption. In all likelihood, though, he
composed them for a series of performances that never materialized.
B11
The Serenade in C-minor, K. 388
contains its own mystery.
Divertimentos and serenades of the
eighteenth century were generally
light entertainment works, the
major distinction between the two
being the greater importance given
to the strings in the former.
Musicians offered them as
background music for parties and
dinners, both of the indoor and
outdoor variE'ty. They were set in
major keys, were light in content,
and contained a multitude of
movements, usually supplemented
with extra dance movements.
The Serenade in C-minor, scored
for woodwind octet, is the
complete antithesis to this generic
description. Why would Mozart
compose an entertainment piece in
a dark, minor key? Why would he
write in the four-movement
scheme usually reserved for the
more serious forms of
string quartet and symphony?
Why would he include the learned
form of canon in the minuet, a
movement that is usually light and
graceful? Unfortunately, we have
no answers to these penetrating
questions. This is truly a serious
work, out of place with its sister
divertimentos and serenades.
Many mysteries (read:
inaccuracies) concerning Mozart's
Requiem have been perpetuated
over the two centuries since
Mozart left this work unfinished on
his deathbed. The most recent
example is in the play and movie
Amadeus. Contrary to the movie,
fellow composer Antonio Salieri
did not assist Mozart in its
Pearls
About 1910 the Japanese learned how to introduce a motherof-pearl bead or section of shelI into a molIusc to begin a
defense mechanism to produce a lustrous pearl in much less
time that it would take to form naturally. A natural pearl is
almost entirely nacre while a cultured pearl. which takes about 4
years to form. has a nucleus to give it a head start.
COLOR-the most common colors are white. cream. pink. black
and grey.
SHAPE-the more perfectly round the pearl. the more valuable.

composition, nor was the specter
of his father's disapproving face
responsible for his exhaustion and
resulting decline in health. In
reality, Mozart did not know who
commissioned the work; in his
failing health he even came to
believe he was writing it for
himself.
The question today remains:
when we hear a performance of
Mozart's Requiem, to whose music
are we really listening? Joseph
Eybler, a student of Mozart, was
the first to attempt to finish the
work. Before he could complete it
Mozart's wife, Constanze, gave the
score to another student, Franz
Sussmayr. This one did complete
it, basing his work on Mozart's
extant sketches and, presumably,
Mozart's own intentions. Recently,
Franz Beyer (1971) and Richard
Maunder (1981) have also
completed Mozart's unfinished
work. The performance by the
Muncie Symphony Orchestra will
feature a new "editor," MSO
conductor Leonard Atherton. His
version draws upon the work of
both Eybler and Sussmayr.
Soloists for the October 26 concert
are Joan Metelli (soprano),
Maureen Miller (mezzo-soprano),
John Meadows (tenor), and Philip
Ewart (bass), all members of the
voice faculty at Ball State
University. The performance
begins at 8 p.m. in Emens
Auditorium on the Ball State
University campus.
Andrew Levin is a doctoral student in
conducting at Ball State University. a
student of maestro Atherton, and a violist in

The Grandaddy 0/ Baseball o/Operas to Make its Presence Felt
Cosi
FANS
TUTTi
by Louis PHillips
A
'though there are literally
tens of popular songs about
baseball, there are (alas!) very few
operas about the sport. Thus, the
recent disco'fery of an unproduced
opera by Stengel and Hayden has
caused a great stir in music circles.
(It actually doesn't take very much
to cause a great stir in music circles,
for such circles stir quite easily; any
scrap of manuscript paper is likely to
cause a fuss.) The opera entitled
Cos; Fans Tuft;, was nearly
completed at the untimely death of
Stengel and the most timely death of
Hayden, and was discovered under a
pile of unpoid bills. A huge pile of
unpaid bills.
As of this writing, the Metropolitan
Opera is planning a production in
the spring of 1993.
. Cosi Fans Tutti: Opera Comique/
Tragique
Scene: San Francisco / Oakland /
Vienna / Athens / other unreal
cities
Time: December, 198-, 199_
Chief characters: The Queen of
Portugal, The Count of the
Baseball Commission, Colonel
Fairfax, Fax, Club Owners, Mark of
Langston, Mark of Davis, Kirby of
Puckett, Count di Box Office
Receipts, Parsifal, Kundy,
Satyagraha, and numerous fans.
The story ofCosi Fans Tutti is
taken from a medieval legend
(circulated by owners of major
league teams, who have
reluctantly abandoned stories of
poisoned wells). The time is late in
the 1980s or sometime in the dark
ages. The Burgomeister and the
Commissioner of Baseball stand at
the window of a high~rise owned
by G. Steinbrenner.
"'Habit is a great Deadener,' said
Samuel Beckett," the
Commissioner sings. "But so too is
playing for a losing team," the
Burgomeister replies.
Outside the high rise, in a
peaceful part of the Bronx on the
bank of the East River, a tribe of
Gypsy free-agents have pitched
their tents and temporary
condominiums. A bright fire is
burning, and a hungry band of
pitchers, catchers, outfielders,
infielders, and deSignated hitters
have gathered to pray to their
agents. They fall to their knees and
sing the beautiful and touching
religious hymn, More! More! More!
More! More! More! More! More!
More! Si Ii Conoscofl
The touching but beautiful
hymn is interrupted by the arrival
of a first baseman named Don M.
Alfonso. Alfonso is greeted with
much warmth as he sings, "Tutti,
lor piante, tutti deliri loro ancor tu
sai," which, freely translated,
means, "Then you have noticed
that the owners of major league
clubs are overcome by
desperation ?"
More contracts are tossed into
the fire and there is much dancing
and singing (simple peasant songs
mingled with Gregorian Chants).
B13
These baseball players and agents
are simple, happy wanderers
following their hearts from place to
place.
The leader of the players - a
venerable young lawyer, whose
eyes are young but sad - steps
forward, dances a minuet with the
Burgomeister (who has donned a
disguise to spy on the players),
and sings what is known in
musicology as liThe Lawyer's
Aria"2:
Ah, perdon, mio bel diletto
Innocenyi e questo cor
(I am sure the owners' opposition
and their fierce anger is not for
show) (translation by Hrbek)
All eyes now turn toward Langston
and his fast ball. Years before,
Langston had come as a stranger
to the tribe, declaring himself
weary of the trials and
disappOintments of life in an
obscure part of the media
marketplace. He begged to be
allowed to remain for a short time
with the Gypsies or Free Agents,
who received him with great
courtesy and hospitality.
From off-stage (Queens?) we hear
the screams of thousands of men,
women, and children. Thirtythousand 3 die-hard baseball fans
rush onto the stage, singing "Gusti
nuni cosa a sento?" ("How dare a
.237 hitter demand a salary of over
3 million a year?")
The fans pay ten or fifteen
dollars apiece for the privilege of
doing a little dance with the

wa, unexpectedly hot ""
Minnesota in 1965. Though it was
eleven in the morning and nearing
100 degrees, I was happy to escape
the classroom for a breath of fresh
air and a walk in the monastic
gardens. Having just received my
B.A. in philosophy and art, I was in
the middle of a four-week "super"
calculus course (two semesters
credit by examination) which I had
agreed to take to keep a couple of
buddies, who needed the course,
from insane Isolation. The usual
quiet of the garden was, this
morning, disturbed by a rumbling
from behind the old library
building. Curiosity, my most
common companion, required that

THE ARCHITECT
AND THE SIDEWALK
SUPERVISOR
I investigate. I headed for the
building and. still at some
distance, noticed a sluice-like
construction extending from a
third floor window to the bed of a
large dump t.ruck. Dust billowed
from the window as wheelbarrows
filled with crumbled plaster, lathe
and brickwork were dumped,
. cascading like water to the waiting
truck bed. From above I could hear
the poundin9 that spoke of
demolition -- not the first time for
. this venerable building which had
once housed a large photo studio .
lit on its north side by an
expansive glass wall and skylight.
Recently it had been home to a
museum, long narrow tomblike
rooms filled with artifacts collected
by monks travelling to their various
missions.
I had to investigate; it was
almost a "professional"
responsibility. During the previous
eight years I had become a master
sidewalk supervisor, schooled
through keen observation of
building projects designed by the
internationally renowned Bauhaus
architect Marcel Breuer. The
abbey, to observe the hundredth
year of its founding, had embarked
on a 100 Year Plan for the
rebuilding of its campus facilities
and Breuer had.been ~hosen as the
designer for the task. Nothing, I
suspect, has had a more profound
impact on my life or philosophy
than observing the ~onstruction of
his buildings. I marveled at the
artistry and attention to detail. I
noted the affect his spaces h~d on
those who occupied them. There
was a purity in his work, an
honesty - respect for men and
materials. This influence led me to
a degree in art and a stint as
instructor in the university's prearchitecture program.
Three flights of stairs later I
stood in a large open space strewn
with the rubble of demolished
walls. "What," I asked, "is going
into this space?" The answer to
that question would result in a
construction assignment two
weeks later and, ultimately, a
career in an unfamiliar field.
"We're building radio studios for
the new educational station" came
the answer.
This was a notion outside my
grasp. My experience with radio
was slight - Arthur Godfrey in the
morning, the fi\oontime news, Ma
Perkins, Perry Mason and the
Guiding Light;- these were the
daily programs mother followed
and we children were allowed to
hear (radio has a corrupting
influence, you know!). A bright
young former student of the
university, Bill Kling, was building
the first of a planned statewide
network which would be the voice
of St. John's to all of Minnesota.
I soon discovered that radio is
like printer's ink - once you get
your fingers into it you can't wash
it off. This was a project I had to
follow. I hauled bricks and
concrete blocks, painted walls and
watched intently as a genius
named Mike Shields assembled his
custom designed audio control
system for the master control
room. In time I would design the
first membership campaign

presentation kit and a monthly
magazine, Preview (now

Student's
cc media art"
is something
more than
By Chad Wagner
I
i
B18
It doesn't take much to be creative. A little inspiration
here, a little effort there. Sometimes, the burst of
creativity' can lead to wonderful opportunities.
Beginning in high school. Neal Taylor, a senior
majonng in advertising and art at Ball State University,
began developing a new artistic expression
featuring famous Hoosiers.
From a distance, his an could be any other
portrait. But look closer and you might notice
something you't'e read.
W7ult appears to be brush strokes blending to form
faces and clothing are actuall"}' articles and photos clipped
from mag-azines.
Taylor calls his work "media an" and describes it as
art \'flU can read.
A
nd he got the idea by looking through-you guessed
it-magazines.
These little tidbits of news make up the clothing,
while the skin. eyes, hair, and teeth come from
magazine illustrations. For example, the dark brown hair in
Yankees first baseman Don Mattingly's portrait came from a
food illustration-the chocolate icing on a doughnut.
"I'm just looking for the color-not what it's from,"
Taylor says.
The process of cutting and pasting hundreds of magazine
scraps into an image is tedious. Taylor spends about five to
ten hours on research for articles. He uses photocopied
material as well as articles cut right out of the magazine. The
articles Taylor uses for his work deal with the person his art
portrays. He said he tries to work quotes and tidbits about the
subject's life into each portrait.
A close
reading of VicePresident Dan
Quayle's shirt,
for example,
reveals his
birthday
(January 4,
1947), the fact
that he married
his wife,
Marilyn, ten
weeks after he
met her, and he
"views himself
as a self-made
success."
Make no mistake aoout his art though-this cutting and
pasting is no simple collage.
He said forming thl! subject's eyes, teeth and hair are the
most time consuming and crucial to the overall appearance.
"If you don't get the eyes right, it's ruined," he says.
While he wouldn't guess at the time usually required to
create such a work, Taylor says his portrait of Mattingly, took
about eighry hours to complete.
Mattingly lived next to Taylor in Evansville, so he
decided to use him as his first subject.
"At first, I was just going to do sports figures," he says.
"When I finished doing them, I didn't want to quit. So I
expanded. I just didn'!: want to quit doing it."
Several of the pieces of his thirteen-subject portrait series,
titled "Indiana Legends," have been displayed throughout the
Muncie area. Last year the collection was on exhibit in the
journalism building at Ball State Universlry.
His portrait of James Dean was among other James Dean
memorabilia presented at The James Dean Gallery in
Fairmount, Indiana, which is the former actor's hometown.
This past September, the portrait hung in the museum while
more than fifty thous::md visitors from around the world came
l\-1ake no mistake
about his art
though-this
cutting and
pasting is no
sirnple collage.

to pay tnbute to Dean on the anniversary of his death.
"I thought that was great." he savs about the display. "I
wish I'd been there. [The museum owner) said he had a lot
of positive comments on it."
Besides Mattingly, Quayle, and Dean. Taylor has
framed clipping art portraits of such Hoosier notables as
singers Michael Jackson and John Mellencamp, talk-show
hosts Jane Pauley and David Letterman. Muncie's own
Garfield cartoonist Jim Davis, AIDS victim Ryan White,
comedian Red Skelton, Indiana Universiry basketball
coach Bobby Knight, and sports figures Larry Bird and Bob
Griese.
After he completes each of the portraits, Taylor mails
each one with a request that they be autographed. Some
of the celebrities have responded in appreciation.
"You have truly defined a new art medium in which to
work." Michael Jackson wrote in a letter to Taylor.
Jackson also autographed his likeness, dated it 1998 (as he
did in his book Moonwalker), and returned it shortly after
receiving it.
"Nice work!" Davis wrote above his signature and a
small caricature of Garfield shaking Taylor's hand.
The portrait of Jane Pauley is the only one Taylor has
had a problem with. It was mailed to New York Ciry and
never returned. He contacted several people at the NBC
offices, but he didn't receive any information about its
existence. Records from United Parcel Service state the
portrait was delivered to NBC.
"That has been my only disappomtment, Taylor says of
the disappearance. "But the thrill of the others returning
signed has definitely made up for that."
aylor isn't currently working on a new portrait. but
he keeps a mental list of celebrities he'd like to do
portraits of.
"I've always been a fan of Magic Johnson-and
I'm thinking of doing his."
Never mind that Johnson is from Michigan and not
Indiana. As for legendary Hoosiers, he wants to do some
portraits of women.
.
"I'm not going to do Jane Pauley again," he says, but
may consider Janet Jackson.
This is a serious project by Taylor and his doesn't take
it lightly. He graduates in May and is confident the new
medium he's created will help distingUish himself from the
competition in his art career. One way he plans to get a
jump on the competition is by doing a Volkswagen ad
using the same format as his portraits. Within the next
month, he'll get the chance to show the piece to a
company representative.
"I hope I get a job doing creative advertising in a big
city at a big agency," he says about post-graduation plans.
With his imaginative ideas and innovative art medium,
it's doubtful that- he could do anything that's not creative.

During April the WBST
newsroom will produce a series of
special reports highlighting artists
and their works and art forms
associated with the Ball State
University Museum of Art. A grant
awarded to the museum allows
WBST and the art museum to
coproduce a month-long series of
reports. The research efforts of Ball
State University student Tonia Said
will air throughout the month
during Afternoon Edition and
Morning Edition. Through this series
of reports, WBST news and the Ball
State Museum of Art believe east
central Indiana residents will have a
unique opportunity to understand
the variety of art on display at the
museum. Through this newfound
appreciation, WBST news hopes to
encourage its listeners to visit or
continue to visit the museum.

Dear Stewart:
Just a short note to tell you how much I enjoyed reading the
January issue of Waves.
I read so many guides from our affiliates -- so when one of note
comes my way, it's undoubtedly refreshing. Your new format makes
the guide very readable, and the articles are worth reading
informative and fun.
I hope your listeners agree and continue to open their
checkbooks. Happy New Year to all of our friends at WBST!
With warm regards,
-

Dear Nancy,
I received my issue of Waves this week. As always, I am favorable impressed.
I do not perceive myself as a rebel rouser but I just wanted to share a thought with
you.
The theme of the issue was Environmental Wellness. However on page 29 of the
issue you informed readers of your exchanging names and addresses with other
groups. It seems to me that this action would permit groups and organizations to add
to the great quantity of '"junk mail" which those on your mailing list already receive.
This additional waste of paper and increased frustration of those of us who are
annoyed by the extra mail does not seem congruent with your "Becoming
Environmentally Friendly" article on page 76.
I am naive as to the motives of organizations which share mailing lists. I do not know
if it generates revenue or locates donors for those who share. If that is the case, I
can see why you do it. At any rate, yOil will find my label attached and I would ask
that my name and address not be shared.

WAVES considerations
What is the magazine's purpose? Is it serving that purpose?
If discontinued, could advertisers be converted to program
underwriting?
Will a loss of $15,000 to $20,000 in ad revenue lead to a
-similar gain in underwriting?
A Scenario
Discontinue WAVES as a magazine and produce a program guide -just program information, some highlights and station
activities. Maybe retain a few advertisers to offset the cost of
a guide.
Offer the advertisers with outstanding contracts corresponding
credit in on-air underwriting. This way we keep most of the
revenue that has been committed and reduce out of pocket
expenses.
We are spending $40,000 to sell $20,000 in advertising -- is the
resulting product worth the additional $20,000 for marketing
purposes. No.
