      <p> <img src="images/0adler.gif" width="200" height="137" align="left"><font size="-1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">During 
        the week of March 11, the Five College departments of music will host 
        one of this country's best known contemporary composers for this year&#146;s 
        Five College residency. Samuel Adler, an accomplished conductor and author 
        with more than 400 published works to his credit, is undisputedly one 
        of the most prolific of modern composers. His music has been performed 
        by n</font><font size="-1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">early 
        every major symphonic and chamber organization in the United States and 
        many of those abroad. As Five College Composer in Residence, Adler will 
        devote much of the week to giving lectures and demonstrations and taking 
        part in classes and seminars at all the campuses. The high point of the 
        residency, however, will be a concert featuring an all-Adler program performed 
        by members of the faculty and students of the five colleges. Among the 
        selections is a piece that Adler wrote for Aaron Copland&#146;s 80th birthday 
        as well as his more whimsical &quot;The Ballad of the Dog,&quot; adapted 
        from a poem by P.D. Eastman. The concert takes place at 8:00 p.m. on Thursday 
        evening, March 14, in Pratt Hall at Mount Holyoke College. There is no 
        admission charge and the public is welcome to attend. </font></p>
      <p><font size="-1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Born in 
        Mannheim, Germany in 1928, Adler emigrated to the United States in 1939. 
        He earned undergraduate and graduate degrees at Boston University and 
        Harvard University, respectively, but has subsequently been the recipient 
        of honorary degrees from several other institutions as well as innumerable 
        honors and prizes for both his musical compositions and his conducting. 
        While serving in the U.S. Army, he founded the Seventh Army Symphony Orchestra, 
        whose achievements under his baton garnered him the Army Medal of Honor. 
        In May 2001, Adler was inducted into the American Academy of Arts and 
        Letters. In 1993, during a second visit to Chile, Adler was elected to 
        that country&#146;s Academy of Fine Arts &quot;for his outstanding contributions 
        to the world of music as composer, conductor, and author.&quot;</font></p>
      <p><font size="-1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">After serving 
        for many years as professor of composition at the Eastman School of Music 
        where he chaired the composition department, Adler retired in 1994 with 
        the rank of professor emeritus. During his long and productive career, 
        he has been a guest composer or conductor at over 300 universities and 
        colleges worldwide and is currently on the faculty of The Juilliard School 
        of Music in New York City. </font></p>
      <p><font size="-1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">According 
        to his longtime friend and colleague Robert Stern, professor of music 
        in the University&#146;s Department of Music and Dance and a composer 
        in his own right, &quot;Apart from the sheer volume of output, what distinguishes 
        Sam from many of his peers is the variety of works he has produced.&quot; 
        Adler&#146;s catalog of published works, Stern points out, includes five 
        stage works, six symphonies, eight string quartets, eight concerti (organ, 
        piano, violin, cello, flute, guitar, saxophone quartet, woodwind quintet), 
        many shorter orchestral works, works for wind ensemble and band, chamber 
        music, a great deal of choral music -- and songs. Adler has also managed 
        to find time to write numerous articles and three books about music&aelig;Choral 
        Conducting, an anthology (Holt, Rinehart and Winston, 1971); Sight-Singing 
        (W.W. Norton, 1979, 1997); and The Study of Orchestration (W. W. Norton, 
        1982, 1989). Adler&#146;s compositions have been recorded on RCA, Vanguard, 
        Crystal, CRI, and Lyrichord, among others. </font></p>
      <p><font size="-1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The roster 
        of performers for the March 14 concert includes several local favorites, 
        among them faculty musicians and others from the community. The concert 
        opens with &quot;Trumpetry,&quot; performed by two University students, 
        Thomas Bergeron and Jessica Hertzberg. Linda Laderach (violin) and Larry 
        Schipull (piano) then pair up to present Adler&#146;s Violin Sonata No. 
        2. Mezzo soprano Marjorie Melnick, joined by Gary Steigerwalt on piano 
        and Fredric Cohen on oboe, will present several songs by Adler. Neil Deland 
        and Nadine Shank will offer their rendition of Adler&#146;s Sonata for 
        horn and piano. The evening concludes with an excerpt from Adler&#146;s 
        &quot;A Whole Bunch of Fun&quot;: &quot;The Ballad of the Dog&quot; will 
        be sung by the Mount Holyoke College Glee Club under the direction of 
        Catharine Melhorn. </font></p>
