02 -f the Pott Star, Glont FBtla, Y. MotKlay, April 4, 1994 Local Salem Fricntls of Music to hold concert ApriM4 The Salem Central Friends of Music will hold the first of its community concerts at 7:30 p.m. on April 14 in the Salem Central School auditorium. Two Salem students will perform concertos: senior Theresa Oiroun, a flutist, and sophomore Molly Dashaw, bass trombonist. Also featured during the concert will be "Harmonic Perception, a barbcrihon quartet from Lake Cicorae High School.

Tickets (adult $1, children 50 cents) will be available at the door. Refreshments will be served free of charge. Homcbaked goods will be sold. All proceeds will benefit music programs at the school. The crowd was generous with applause throughout the afternoon, and once the concert was over, the group was brought back on stage for a second bow.

"1 think the Glens Falls people should be proud," said Mary Reid, referring to the talent of the students. The Hartford resident said although she does not know any of the singers, the attends their concerts "as often as I can." "1 think it's a nice way to spend Easter," she said. Apparently, so did everyone else. When Kelly Travis and Anne Daly performed Felix Mendelssohn' "I Waited for the Lord," they received resounding applause, which brought them out for a second bow following their duct. The piece includes the line, "I waited for the Lord, He heard my complaint." Following the concert, no one heard any complaints from the audience.

Madrigal From Pag D1 The ningcn also performed such piece as i-'ranz Schubert-! "Du bisJ die Ruh" and MozarC'i "Misse Brevis, comprised of "Kyrie Sanctus," "Gloria Hcncdictua" and "Credo Agnus Dei." Crislip prefaced several items with brief history of the origin of a particular piece. Before the Misse Brevis was performed, he explained thai it was composed to accompany the Mass during the late 1700s. Crislip said the piece is not as long as others 'i composed during that time, so as not to diag out the Mass. "Mozart got the word to write them short and brief," he said. However, once the singers finished the piece, the length of the applause from the approximately 150 people was anything but short I 1 1 I Tarl Currta The Queensbury High School Madrigal Singers performed at The Hyde Collection on Warren Street on Sunday.

They've had five small runs and so far only have made About a quarter of their average crop. The snow is still 2-3 feet deep in the woods, and is only beginning to shrink away from the foot of the trees, LaBar said. His 90-year-old father, who has sugared most of his life, remains optimistic, LaBar added. In southern Washington County, Staffan Rascher finished up his boiling Saturday. He said he'd never sefn sap like this year's, which foaned in the evaporating pan and had a lot of sugar "sand" (minerals) to filter out "The trees were never dormant," Rascher said.

"The ground was never really frozen, and you're going to see the fastest flush of green leaves you've ever seen." Rascher stopped boiling when the sap turned green and viscous and developed a "buddy" taste, no longer like sweet water. It turned out to be an average season, Rascher said. There have been few "good" runs since the Stewarts and their partner Chris Truso started boiling in Hartford in mid-March, but they say they've been pretty steady.

The most recent change was to redesign the platform to conform to the 1992 American Disabilities Act Amtrak. will pay heat and electricity bills, while the village will be responsible for cleaning and maintenance of the station, as well as snow removal. Part of the land where the new station will be built had to be leased "ta Era era trra kbesi esa rsssa rrsa "It'a been hard to figure, you have to take it day by day," said Mary Stewart Between running their pancake restaurant and boiling sap in their adjoining sugar house, the Rathbuns in North Granville have been doubly busy. Bill Rathbun said Saturday that he's had the best season of the past six to eight years. "We've already made a full crop.

The sap started out very sweet, about 3 percent; it's lower now," he said, adding that the sap is running "like crazy." Whitehall sugar maker Vernon Scribner, who has won awards at North American Maple Council meetings for well-flavored syrup, said if he gets one more good run this season, the crop will equal an average year's production. In Argyle, it hasn't been an outstanding year at Doug and Marjie McDougalT's Highland Maple. "It was very slow tapping because of the deep snow," Marjie said. They started boiling on March 17, and while there were a couple of good runs, there haven't been many good days, she said. The story's different at David and Lisa Campbell's Mapleland Farms in Argyle, with Lisa reporting that they've already made as much as last year, and expects the run to continue by the village.

Owners Robert and Vilma Wolf used the triangle of land immediately south of the Legion post for off-street parking. In return for a 99-year lease, three parking spaces in the station lot will be designated for the Wolfs' use, and property taxes on the small lot will be paid by the village. During construction, the Wolfs will have the use of parking spaces at Skenesborough Museum. Ryan said the DOT has already built a new station in Ticonderoga, restored the station in Westport and renovated the Saratoga Springs station. He said the Fort Edward train station will be renovated next, and that discussions had begun' about the Port Kent station.

Besides the New York to Montreal Amtrak passenger train, four Railroad freight trains regularly pass through Whitehall. Possible enhancements to the proposed "carry forward" budget representing the current budget at 1994-95 costs will be discussed. The school is located at 186 West Ave. in Saratoga Springs. The public is invited to attend.

It includes a section for kindergarten though second-grade students and one for third- through fourth-grade students. A newsletter published by the school states that today's playgrounds, "to meet safety standards and accessibility laws, have become expensive propositions."

as snow cover shrinks in the woods. The season must be going well," she said. "I've barely seen David in three weeks. He goes to bed at 2 a.m., but he's up again at 5 to milk the cows, before heading back to the sugar house." Jun Farrar, president of the Upper Hudson Maple Producers Association and owner of a sugar house in Warrcnsburg, said it's been a pretty good season. While he's wary of forecasts of warmer weather, he said last week brought good volume runs, especially when the nighttime temperature dropped to 1 8 degrees.

"Ihe only thing different about this season," Jim said, "is how sweet the sap was at the beginning. It was very easy to work with." It can take as many as 40 gallons of sap to produce a gallon of syrup. The sugar content in the sap may range anywhere from 2 to 3 percent. The finished syrup should have a sugar content of between 66.5 to 67 5 percent "I can't keep up with it," Don Monica of Corinth said. The Saratoga County sugar maker said the sap has really been flowing the past two weeks.

"In all the years we've been boiling, this is so far our second best season," he said. It may even turn out to be the best, he said.
