During the summer the stu- dents published the Alley Gator for those attending. On April 23 the first major concert State has given for several years was present- ed by members of the a cappella and band, un- der the direction of Roy E. Freeburg and Dr. Wendell Otey. State was host to the Northern California Junior College choral festival on May 7. Stu- dents from the visiting colleges were honored at a reception and entertained by the music department. This was the first time that State was host to the choral festival which was held annually pre- vious to the war. Although many of the pro- grams presented by the music department were discontinued during the War, with the re- turn of many State students and the influx of veterans, the faculty and the Music Fed an- ticipates an active schedule in the future. 0Pictured ut the right are candid scenes of Stc:te's Music Alley.

0 Dr. William Knuth. Head of the Music Department. MUS The variety of rhythmic sounds and mel- odious tones which greet the visitor to the Music Alley are part of the daily routine of music majors and minors. Most of the stu- dents taking courses belong to Music Fed which sponsors all activities of the music de- partment. The primary function of the activities is to give valuable experience to the performers as well as to provide entertainment and recrea- tion for the rest of the students interested in music. Approximately 350 students are receiving musical training in voice, in- strument or theory at State. A committee of students who be- Page I8 long to the Music Fed repre- sent student views on musical activities which will be offered. At the beginning of each semester the student board and faculty meet togeth- er and organize the deputation trips, recitals, concerts and other activities in which the music students will partici- pate. Many high school students attended the eighth annual music Workshop which was held by the music department during the summer session, 1945. Under the leadership of Dr. William E. Knuth, mem- bers of the faculty and music students directed the d a i 1 y three hour sessions. The work- shop classes are conducted by student teachers, and the in- strumental ensembles, consist- ing of an advanced and begin- ners band, and an orchestra, are under the supervision of 0 The Alley-Musician's Mecca I C
