I MORNING, MAKf ll 2H T'Ti Mu 1 1 1 II1K I.OI IVVII I KV, A rewarding String Quartet concert "MAGNIFICENT ENTERTAINMENT nACT PMDEARING written in 1969 on commission from the Fromm Music Foundation, and already has had performances at the Tanglcwood Music Festival and at a concert sponsored by the Fromm Foundation in Chicago. Inspired by poetry With his major Louisville compositions, "Autumn Setting" has most in common with Rhodes' "The Lament of Michal" for Soprano and Orchestra. Like "Michal," is was inspired by poetry by Patricia Schneider. Like "Michal," it is a highly emotional work, in which past happiness is recalled through a mist of nostalgia. Rhodes has an incredibly exact ear for instrumental color.

"Autumn Setting" is economically written, with not a superfluous note anywhere. Nevertheless, his writing for both string quartet and his vocal line in "Autumn Setting" is mar- vclously expressive, and hrrc it is time to make a low bow to Edie Davis, who was last night's soloist. Rhodes writes with a freakish soprano range in mind. Miss Davis tackled "Autumn Setting" fearlessly, however, and sang it beautifully. It was a difficult assignment, which she carried out with high honors.

Aside from a rushed pace in the last movement of Hydn's "Lark," which resulted in a flurried performance, the Louisville String Quartet played extremely well last night. It was good, too, to hear a quartet by Arriaga, a Spanish composer who was a contemporary of Schubert, but who died at the age of 20. On the basis of this passionate work, he might have become the most significant Spanish composer of the 19th Century. At any rate, he was an extremely gifted prodigy, and the Louisville Quartet gave him a lucid and loving performance. The Louisville String Quartet: Paul Kling and Peter MeHugh, violins; Virginia Schneider, viola; ond Guillermo Helguera, cello; with Edie Davis, loprano; presented last night in its Recital Hall by the University of Louisville School of Music.

The program: Quartet in major, Opus 64, No. 5, "The Lark," by Haydn; "Autumn Setting" for Soprano and String Quartet, by Phillip Rhodes; Quartet No. 1 in minor, by Arriaga. By WILLIAM MOOTZ Courier-Journal Critic The Louisville String Quartet played an unusual and rewarding program last night in the Recital Hall on the University of Louisville School of Music's Kentucky Southern Campus. The concert opened with Haydn's "Lark" Quartet, well known to the average chamber-music fan.

From then on, however, Faul Kling and his associates embarked on unfamiliar paths with Phillip Rhodes' "Autumn Setting," and Ar- Dudley YEAR! "ONE or 1 IXinan riaga First String Quartet in minor. Rhodes is Louisville's composer-in-residence, although his "Autumn Setting" for Soprano and String Quartet dates from before his arrival here.

The oral ruling denied to Richard Blanchett, a Bardstown High School senior, a temporary and permanent injunction against enforcement of the school's dress code. Blanchett, 17, had challenged the dress code in a suit that contended his Feb. 19 suspension by school Principal John H. Branson was improper because the principal did not advise the student of his rights of appeal, nor was Blanchett afforded a hearing before the board of education. The suit, filed on behalf of Blanchett by attorneys for the Kentucky Civil Liberties Union, also said that the effect of the suspension under the dress code was that Blanchett was being punished "for having physical differences and for exercising his individuality in dress and grooming." Blanchett's attorney, Robert E.

Dela-hanty, said yesterday's ruling probably will be appealed. THE UNPUBLISHABLE NOVEL IS NOW AMERICA'S MOST CONTROVERSIAL FILM!
