MUSIC DEPARTMENT V ARIOUS sounds can usually be heard coming from the fourth floor in Morrison Hall, the home of the college’s combined Carnegie Hall and Birdland. Music plays an important part in the life of college students here on campus. This has be¬ come evident by the increasing interest in the various music groups. The band and orchestra both participated in the Music Department’s “57 Varieties,’’ the annual talent show. At Christmas time both organizations again shared honors in the an nual Christmas program. The chorus’s reg¬ ular Yuletide broadcast also took place over the local radio station. In order to keep up with the times, the band and chorus took an early Spring trip “Around the World in Music.” To end the year these groups went on tour, visiting JAZZ CLUB Francis Bartolomeo, Steve Hopkins, Robert Carabia, Tony Grabliauskas. 58

This club is dedicated to the purpose of fostering and preserving Jewish cul¬ ture and contributing to the welfare and education of Orange County Community College students and to the community. With and help of its spiritual advisor, Rabbi Goldblum, and faculty ad¬ visors, Mr. Sussman and Mr. Meyers, the club was able to hold socials once a month at the local temple. During the year the group also held a coffee hour and a dance for the student body. A model Passover Sedar was conducted by the group to give the student body an opportunity to taste and enjoy the many delicacies offered on this holiday and to observe the way in which Jewish services are performed.
