A-10- THE SUNDAY TIMES, DECEMBER 11, 1977-SCRANTON, Marywood Artists-in-Residence 1st Prize Win in Brazil Elates Audubon Quartet The Lively Arts Once again the Audubon Quartet. Marywood'i tamou. String Quartet in residence at the college, has come back to the Scranton area copping first prize in an International string quartet competition re Cently held in Brazil. Competing in the Villa-Lobos International String Quartet Competition, held ia Rio Da Janeiro to commemorate the 90th birth anniversary of this renowned Brazilian composer, the Audubon was up against very stiff competition, particularly from the Argentinian quartet, a group together for some 23 years, who had been favored to win first prize. After the Audubon's brilliant entry performance, which included works by Americans as well as Brazilians, such as the Moss Quartet, the EdinoKrieger Quartet and works by Villa-Lobos and other standard repercussion, the judges' decisions were unanimous the Audubon was clearly the winner.

Now back in the States, having returned to Scranton to perform recently in concert at Marywood, the members of the Audubon are still elated over their recent award. Aside from the obvious glory of winning, the Audubon left Brazil with a cash prize and a lovely 18 carat gold medal given to them by the Brazilian government. In addition to having performed for the competition, while in Brazil the Audubon also presented two formal concerts, one held in Rio and the other In San Paulo and also gave a full recital in sala Cecilia Meireles after the competition. The recent prize-winning performance by the Audubon will add yet another feather in the caps of these talented young chamber music artists who made national headlines this spring and summer by taking first prize in the International Evian Quartet competition in France held In May, and then receiving an invitation to perform tor President and Mrs. Carter at the White House during a State dinner given for Prime Minister Menaham Begin.

Formed under the auspices of the Lenpx Quartet in 1974, members of the Audubon Quartet C. Thomas Shaw, cello; Doris Lederer, viola: Denis Cleveland, violin; and Janet Brady, violin have been in residence a Marywood for the past four years. Their ever-growing notoriety and proof of professionalism has spread outside the Scranton area: they have been described by the New York Times as a group capable of satisfying, intelligent interpretation of a variety of repertory clean, strong and propulsive. As artists-in-residence at Marywood, the Audubon provides classroom instruction to majors at the college and is presented in concert in the Fine Arts Theatre several times duriong each academic year. The next concert is scheduled for Feb.

Ah, but theres more. The landlords sex-starved wife is forever trying to turn her husband to thoughts of love. He asks, "Why do you bring sex into everything? She replies, If I dont, who will?

Norman Fell is the dyspeptic landlord, and Audra Lindley is his wife.

The basic concept of the ABC series is titilating: two attractive young women and a young man live together in a platonic triangle. Lest anyone particularly the landlord think the worse, the young man pretends to be homosexual. Its a situation ripe for double entendres, and none are mjssed, from Tinkerbell to fairy godmother to a limpwristed flick.
