University of Third Age open day at college
THE Clitheroe branch of the University of the Third Age moved further forward with a very suc
cessful open day. It was held at the Cente
naries Theatre, Stonyhurst College, and attracted 140 people, including U3A members from Barnsley and Sale and non-members. The first morning speak
er was David Alston, Gal leries Director of the new Lowry Museum and Art Gallery in Salford, due to open in four weeks' time. He provided the audience with new insights into Lowry's work and also included slides illustrating the new buildings. Mr Alston described the important role the project was playing in that area of Salford. The second speaker was
David Gerard, whose back ground is in librarianship. In building up archive material he had tape- recorded conversations with a wide range of major 20th Century authors in order to capture their spoken words for posterity. His perceptive comments were greatly enlivened by a dry sense of humour which appealed immensely to his audience. An excellent lunch in the St Mary's Hall dining room
followed before the audience returned to the theatre for an illustrated lecture by pianist Peter Lawson. He is a teacher at Chetham's School of Music and a recent soloist with the Halle Orchestra. Speaking about 20th Century piano music from Debussy to Scott Joplin,1 he included refer ences and illustration derived from many less familiar names. He con jured up some remarkable sounds from the piano, a realistic drum effect and amazingly beautiful harp like piece played using pedal, keyboard and strum ming the strings. "It was a fascinating day,
arranged and produced by member Mrs Marget Shaw," said a U3A spokesman. "It culminated in guided tours of the col lege for those with the nec essary stamina." The branch meets at the
parish church hall in Clitheroe on the second Tuesday afternoon of each month, with a £1 charge for non-members.
