PARADE om On our return onm Egypt Bilth coon incurs The Many Parts OlSimcoo County Enmtnor on mtg It was with more than little pleasure that we accepted the invitation of the Georgian Bay Devel opment Association to write the Simone County sac tton of its latestpromotional booklet Our only fear was that feeling so strongly and so personally about this county we could not ade quately gét it acress to outsiders our travels to many different parts of the world have never changed the special regard in which we hold the county that has been our home and place of em ployment orf and on for more than dozen years how does one explain that sort thing to stranger Ev Perhaps by mixing few of the super abundance of lmprestons and memories held so fondly over the yeiirs we can present kaleidoscope lf not straightforward description of Simcoa County and its attractions This ls what we wrote Within the waters and the lands which enclose Simone County are such diverse activities and at tractions that it is wellnight impossible to tag the whole with any sort of character One can only try to list some of its parts PLACE TO WORK Simcoe County is place where people work They work in communities removed from the grime the clutter and the noise of the bigger industrial centres to the south The neatly modern industrial buildings springing up around Barrie Orillla Midland Colllngwood Bradford and even the smaller centres are many of them escapees from the bigger cities They have found pleasant locations little more than an hour or so from Toronto with all its advantages and few in anyof its disadvantages Sinicoe County too is place where people play They swim in one blue waters of Georgian Bay on the one side and Lake Simcoe on the other or in the rivers and lakeswhioh dot the county They lounge on the long white beaches of Wosaga they ski they sail they hunt and fish and camp they play hockey they golf on the countys many ecum es they curl and bowl and play baseball They attend Communitygoncerts in various oom munlties they watch young thespians perform in the Georgian Bay Drama mtlvnl they visit the lib caries they choose from more than score or thriv ing weeklyanddaly

This was trgmendous effort from the band as it meant nonstop blow of 1V bouts Arriving back in Camp we bad Just about enough time to pack our bags before leaving for Brussels where we were joined by

Guards on the occas by NELLES DAVIE of Barrio PUBLIC VS PERFORMER It seems fairly safe to say many musicians today plan their programs with little can cam for the pleasure of their listeners Anyone who has travel led and discussed programs with concertgoers on this continent must be aware many are unhap Pl with what they are offered The position the musician tak es in that he knows what is prop er and acceptable whereas the public is uninformed musically and often lacklngin taste There is certainly some truth in this charge but it does not necessarily Justify the music lana attitude IVORY TOWER Performers should not assume the public exists forthelr the performora greater glory flows over excellent the musicians fal cnt and presentation the public has the final word No amount of complaining argument or stub born resistance will change this If the performer were to think about it he would realize his position may ho just as unworthy as that of the public who reject him It is not consideran to do whatyou want to do whether anyone else wants you toor not People cannot be expected to gather regularly to listen to pro grams which dont interest them And it is really unimportant from practical standpointwhe ther tho public is wrong and the performer right or viceverso Public taste is the way it is be cause it is the way it is We seek improvement in all areas of hu man life but we recognize that to be really effective it has to be sincere and voluntary So if we would improve public taste the place tostart is with ourselves We may find it pretty ion of their

so good The cost of living as far as food goes compares with Canada but other things such as clothing household items radios record players furnture etc are much cheaper Its nice to hear that musical

before an aud ience in the concert hall he is hardly prepared for the much more varied group in front of to him Musical audiences are made up in port of genuine music lovers intellectuals wouldho intellectuals snobs socialclimb ers mimic tud the friends had relati same This is the hardcore audience which varies little from year to year Because of their special in forests they will go to concerts no matter what the program as long as they are assured by the right people that they are at the right concerts WE IANED ITI The insincere gushing many of these people in dulge in often mlsleads the performer If he lacks experience he maybe fool ish enough to believe them It is important to realize that many of these people haveno interest in music as such They only seek to use music as menu of an quiring social stature They at tend concerts in something of the same mood they would go to funeral an unpleasant hut nec essary social obligation They are all wellmannered people and so they assure each other that the whole evening couldnthavn been more enchanting If this were the extent of the enterprise isthe National Youth Orchestra Association of Canada which is to give its first

innocent bystanders who have not com mitted themselves These people are really the most important part of any aud ience because they represent the only available means of in creasing the influence ofmuaic It may be possible to turn thea casual curiosity and vague fond ness for music into real enthus iasm WANTED ENTERTAINMENT It Is immediately obvious that their musical wants will differ from those of the educated mun iclan Consistently successful musicians have recognized this group asnn important part of err audience They are aware that these people are more may ed by musical show than more austere performance But then the hardcore audience in also largely concerned with pub ting on show So while it may seem poor taste to give in to the public and perform works of dubious music at merit which entertain is it equally poor taste to pandgr to the social ambitions of group of snobs by giving them what they wont Concert halls exist for the ben efit of the public If it were not
