So stated Newell Dayley of the Brigham Young University Music Department ia announcing the Jazz Rock Clinic at BYU Aug. 13 18. of which he will be chairman.

The clinic will include instruction in music theory and arranging techniques, classes on each instrument, and rather extensive performance experience in small improvisation combos. There will also be a listening laboratory where recordings of the finest performers of the past and present can be heard. The clinic is provided for the many students who play in a school jazz ensemble or stage band and feei the need to learn how to improvise. "Because of the structure of many school music programs and instructional materials, most directors do not have the time to teach improvisation effectively," Mr. Dayley said.

"A special, concentrated clinic seems to be the answer." He said those teaching jazz-rock related musical groups are especially urged to attend the clinic. "In reality one is only teaching tlie shell of jazz until improvisation is 'mderstood and taught," he asserted. The clinic faculty has been chosen from nationally recognized leaders in jazz performance and education. They include Jerry Coker, director of jazz studies at University of Miami, arranger-composer, and author of "Patterns of Jazz" and "Jazz Improvisation." Also teaching will be Jamey Aebersold, author of "A New Approach to Jazz Improvisation," composer, a national leader in education; Dan Hearle, composer, arranger, jazz painist, faculty member at University of Miami Mike Moore, leading bass player and teacher of improvisation; Charley Craig, drummer with the Jamey Aebersold Ensemble, with wide experience in teaching techniques of top jazz percussionists; Jack Peterson, studio guitarist from Dallas, respected for ability to play and teach all styles cf jazz and rock guitar. Mr.

Dayley added "There is a surge of interest in jazz-related music in the high school and colleges across the nation. Students everywhere have found it to be an excellent vehicle for artistic expression a 'classical' antidote to the crudity of many other popular forms of music. "The best of the jazz of the past and the finest of the current rock music have joined forces to create a current jazz-rock style that is refined and greatly expressive of contemporary feelings and attitudes. As the techniques of improvisation become more widely understood and used, we will experience many changes, ail of which will tend to further 'humanize the musical experiences of the future." Southern Utah State College. According to Mr.

Anderson, "an effective work of art can only be created by a sensitive artist, and the viewer must be equallv aware if he is to appreciate it."

He It a native of Manti aid Assistant Professor of Art and Art Education at At Springville Museum Two Artists Plan VZJ SALOMON ARANDA New Story Of Marilyn There's good news and there's bad news about this latest biography of Marilyn Monroe. The good news is the pictures they present the late beauty with all her evocative charm, her sexiness and. most important, the combination of gamin and innocence that made her more than just another S-curved blonde. The bad news comes in two parts.

One is the price, which is a whopper. The second is the text. Norman Mailer may be a fine, entertaining writer but he's an odd choice to be Marilyn's biographer since he didn't know her or those closest to her. He has done some interviewing but most of his text relies on previously published biographic of the star, from which he quotes liberally. At the end he tends to discount the rumors about her friendship with Robert F.

Mr. Anderson says "All individuals are capable of some expression in art and with the addition of greater art knowledge and skill, expression can become more meaningful if it rupports clarity and originality of thought. The sharpening of self perception and new awareness of aesthetic beauty elevate personal significance and adds dignity to life. An effective work of art can only be created by a sensitive artist, and the viewer must be equally aware if he is to appreciate it.

'a musical), airected by Preston RGledhill. WFtfif 3raV 1 1 C0i mmm philosophy concerning watercolor, I have come to value the following statement made by Mr. Thomas Nicholas To my mind the greatest danger in watercolor painting is that technique can easily dominate the final results. It is true that a procedure in painting is not necessary but essential. However, it should be kept in check, never becoming more pronounced than the emotional content of any given subject or "The beginner or untrained artist more often will hold to the opinion that if the painting is easily recognizable it is a good painting.

In other words, to tell if a painting is a good work of art is to compare it with what it represents. This is too often the case for the average person who judges a work of art. This could be a valid judgment in some cases, but in a very few. Eventually, it will be realized that design, composition, value, and color are more important than an accurate painting. Whether we render a painting realistically or abstractly, we must keep in mind that to convey our feelings about a certain subject should be a main work of the artist," he said.

Mr. Anderson was born at Manti Jan. 4. 1931, son of Edwin a. and Constance Anderson.

He (including, notably. Lou Reed and Mott The Hooplei. which in stereotypical journalistic fashion I will label with a hyphen: androgynous-rock. Bowie is the fulfillment of all the apprehensions of the big band generation when first confronted with long hair and unisex fashions. His hair is carefully styled, short on top, long in back; his thin, graceful body kept virtually hairless, his cheeks powdered, eyes shadowed, eyebrows plucked, lips sticked.

But his appearance (which must be seen to be appreciated) is basically a gimmick to attract attention, the old theory that the more you freak "em out. the more frte publicity you get. word of mouth. What rally counts is the music, and Bowie's music is something special. There are only a handful of rock lyricists who can even stay in Bowie's league.

He is a master of conveyii emotions through a minimum of words. His "Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust" album (RCA LSP47K) was the best of not only because of the driving poser of its rock 'n roll, but because he told its strange story with the clarity of i novelist and the of a poet. David Bowie Is Innovator Of Rock Music in 70's 1 1 ff 1 4k r. If 1 MfrH) 3 ir Unital Press International Unlike some rock journalists I haven't had too much trouble over the past couple of years finding music I like. Despite the moaning and gnashing of teeth from a few writers, there is plenty of top-notch rock n' roll around.

On the other hand, there does seem to be a shortage of really innovative, creative groups and individuals. Virtually all of the music enjoying mass popularity right now is limited to further exploration of the rock topography of the 1960s. There has been little of the Beatles Stones-Dyian-Byrds-Hendrix sorth of boundary-stretching innovation in the past year or three; a sort of conservatism has crept in. Follow the pattern, don't rock the rock. As I said, this does not mean no good music is being made.

But the innovators of the '60s have faded and those we must assume will appear in the 70s have yet to make an entrance--with one or two exceptions. David Bowie is one of those exceptions.
