New Year, New Space!

Photo of the Week

Roughly 40 College of the Arts faculty, staff and students braved a

cold, wintry evening to have a first look at the new OSU Urban Arts

Space downtown. The visitors had a chance to check out the newly

completed gallery spaces in the former Lazarus building prior to

installation of Midnight Robbers: The Artists of Notting Hill

Carnival, which opens Feb 5. The photo, looking down into the lower

gallery from outside on Town Street, was taken by Adam King of

OnCampus.

A glowing review in the Flute Network's December issue had this to say

about the CD Paradise: Music for Flute and Harp: "Katherine Borst

Jones . . . and Jeanne Norton (Music) have produced a splendid

recording of some of the most beautiful and treasured works in the

repertoire with a balance of moods and composers which puts the

listener at ease and yet still draws them into the sensuous web they

spin. The overall mood is one of quiet intensity and Borst Jones

brings out every nuance and color with her delicate phrasing, limpid

tone and floating legato tone. Her flute playing is just so open,

lyrical, musical and technically sound. Harpist Norton is likewise a

superb musician and performer. She is a sensitive and simpatico duo

partner so that the two match their attacks, dymanic and tempos

perfectly. Truly, this is the music of angels and comes to us from on
