Marriage of violin, piano makes unforgettable music
Published: December 1, 2000
Journey to a time 300 years ago when castles settled on the countryside were filled with the music of the violin and piano.Temple kindergartners, first- and second-grade students took that trip Thursday when they assembled at Temple's Cultural Activities Center and listened to violinist Isidor Saslav and his wife, pianist Ann Saslav as a part of the Arts-in-Education (AIE) series.The Saslavs introduced music ranging from "The Entertainer" by Scott Joplin to the humming melody of "The Bee" to the tick-tock tones of "The Clock."Anxious chatter, laughter and excitement filled the Frank W. Mayborn auditorium as the Saslavs took stage and made some of music's greatest innovations with the piano and violin come to life, familiarizing the young listeners with the color and magic of music. by Nicole Edwards
