True to form, some 12,000 Tucson high school students know who Paul Horn is and they like him--- whereas it's doubtful if many of their parents" could identify him if their status symbols depended on it. Probably young and old alike have heard Horn's flute on recordings by Duke Ellington, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, Miles Davis, Ravi Shankar, the Beatles, the late Nat "King" Cole and Donovan but didn't know who manned it. Returning to Tucson from a six-week international tour with folk singer-guitarist Donovan, Horn played to nearly 5,000 high school students at Salpointe, Pueblo and Flowing Wells high schools this week and will play for nearly as many more next week at Cholla, Canyon Del Oro, Santa: Rita, Marana high schools and the Arizona Youth Center. public will have an opportunity to hear Horn and his ensemble this year when he plays a special concert at 7:30 p.m.

Wednesday, Marana High School auditorium. As last year, Horn's concert ensemble appearances here are sponsored by what its director, Dr. Lloyd Weldy of the University of Arizona, refers to by its initials S.A.S.I.M.E.P. (Supplementary and Innovative Music Enrichment Project). That's a state project supported by federal funds from Public Law 89-10, the so-called Title III program that sadly will die year, for lack of federal funds.

The children will be the big losers. For the time: being, 1 ever, there will be music in the air. Horn and his group of professional musicians come "Mod," sporting beards, long hair, and with-it clothes. They play music by such: as Donovan, Lennon, McCartney, Paul Simon 'and Jim Webb. Blowing into the jazz field they lay out Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Thelonius Monk tunes and some original works by Horn.

Transcriptions to the ensemble's instrumentation -essentially a flute quartet, (piccolo, flute, alto and bass flutes) plus rhythm section (piano, guitar, bass and per-. cussion) from classical composers Bach, Mozart, 'Satie, Ravel, Debussy and Bartok take the students through a complete spectrum of important musical styles. Following last year's presentation by Horn's group, Sunnyside High School's paper, the Devilairfe, ran a sur- of programs presented at that school. It reported: "The Paul'Horn flute ensemble was apparently the concert of the year; said they favored it than all other concerts It could be that the students appreciate quality.
