by Berio's 'Homage to Joyce' which turns out to be a taped version of the same text subjected to numerous distortions, superimpositions of the voice upon itself a sort of collage. For me the most compelling performances were those of two songs by Kurt Weill, full of that bittersweet quality unique to Weill's melodic and harmonic shapes, and beautifully projected. Berberian is a fine actress and a studied performer who knows exactly what she is doing at every moment with voice and gesture. It was not an eve WEDNESDAY NIGHT v. firm UUkmk-J 1 6 oz.

EXEL INN BY ROBERT BELOW Mezzo-soprano Cathy Berberian, pinch-hitting for the Virtuosi Philhar-monia group whose tour was canceled, gave the final concert of Lawrence's current artist series Saturday night. It was not your usual voice recital. The singer has been for many years a prominent performer of music by avant-garde composers, especially in Europe, and was married to one such composer until recently.

Thus, she is best noted for her work in recent music, although versatility is also one of her strengths. At any rate, Saturday's program was taken from 20th Century Claudio Monteverdi, evidently programmed as a preparation for a song by Luciano Berio of the present-day, which to some extent imitates Monteverdi's style. Most voice recitals are; of course, primarily concerned-wth the great vocal literature ofthe past, particularly German and French songs of the 19th Century. They seek to establish a balance of styles, moods, and expressive qualities. Saturday's program was clearly not of this type.

It was instead a brief survey of some of the ways 20th Century composers have used the voice. This ranged from the poetic subtleties of Debussy's magical Chansons de Bilitis to the nonsense songs of Stravinsky known as Pribaoutki and beyond. Two clever and amusing presentations of songs by the Beatles will be sung as if it were Joan Baez after a coaching session with Elizabeth accomplished what Berberian stated was one of her objectives: to bring humor into the concert hall. It wasn't all music, either: we had a reading from Joyce's Ulysses; followed Still Mr. Spock (Formerly Holiday Inn) Hwy.

(Ap wirephoto) THURSDAY AILVOU GSU Effl Bill Moyers moving to CBS Reports NEW YORK (AP) Bill Moyers, the former White House aide and host of his own news show on public television for the past five years, has been named anchorman and chief reporter for "CBS Reports." The position on the network's investigative reporting program has been vacant since last Dec. 7 when Dan Rather left to become coeditor of the network's "60 Minutes" show.

John Sharnik, CBS News vice president and director of public affairs broadcasts, said Moyers would join CBS June 1 and that his first "CBS Reports" broadcasts would be aired in October. Meanwhile, Moyers will be active in the network's coverage of the political campaign, he said. The 42-year-old Moyers was deputy director of the Peace Corps when he was picked by President Lyndon B. Johnson as a special assistant in 1963. From 1965 to 1967, he served as Johnson's press secretary.

Later, Moyers served as publisher of the Long Island newspaper Newsday. He joined the Public Broadcasting System in 1970, and his "Bill Moyers' Journal" has been telecast by PBS since then.
