EAU CLAIRE—Classical guitarists
Michael and Tony Hauser will present a free outdoor concert Monday, June 18, at
the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire.
The Summer Session Programs show will begin at 7 p.m. on
the Central Campus Mall (rain: Schofield Auditorium). Refreshments will be sold.
Audience members are invited to bring blankets or folding chairs for lawn
seating.
Michael and Tony Hauser are the premier guitar duo
presenting both classical and authentic, true-to-form flamenco music. One of a
handful of flamenco guitar masters, Michael Hauser divides his time between
Madrid and the Twin Cities, where he serves on the music faculty of Macalester
College. Strongly rooted in the classical tradition, Tony Hauser explores
Spanish flamenco, Latin American, ethnic and new music.
In addition to performing at orchestra halls in
Minneapolis and Chicago and on scores of college campuses, the duo has been
heard often on National Public Radio’s “A Prairie Home Companion.”
Also on campus during the week of June 18 are these free
events:
- Concerts by UW-Eau Claire and area jazz musicians will be
presented from noon to 1 p.m. Monday through Friday on the Central Campus Mall
(rain: The Cabin, Davies Center). A variety of grilled lunch items will be sold.
- The Secret Garden” (1949) will screen Tuesday and Thursday at
noon and 7 p.m. in Davies Theatre. Frances Hodgson Burnett’s atmospheric
Victorian fable stars Margaret O’Brien as a young orphan sent to live with her
widowed uncle (Herbert Marshall) at his dark and foreboding English estate. Her
curiosity and stubborn temperament lead the girl to discover an abandoned
garden, the key to her uncle’s embittered life. Dean Stockwell, Gladys Cooper
and Elsa Lanchester costar in the 92-minute black-and-white film classic.
Funded by UW-Eau Claire student segregated fees, Summer
Session Programs continue through Aug. 2. A complete schedule is available from
the Activities and Programs Office, Davies Center 133, (715) 836-4833.
