ARNOLD SCHOENBERG (1874-1951) Verklarte Nacht (Transfigured Night) Most people associate Arnold Schoenberg with development of the "twelve-tone" sys­ tem of musical composition. However, one of his most popular works, Verklarte Nacht, was composed early in his career (1899) at the age of twenty-five, before his experiments in atonality were evident. Though primarily a self-taught composer, Schoenberg admits to having been greatly influenced by Brahms and Wagner during this period. Verklarte Nacht was unusual in that it was a tone poem composed for a chamber ensemble (string sextet). It was based on a poem written in 1896 by Richard Dehmel, whose work Schoenberg particularly admired.

In the science departments combined there are well over 300 students. Little wonder then that the Committee to Study the Future of Colby (CSFC), as well as stu dents and teachers , have suggested that the science facilities need revi- . talization. 'Friday, the recommendations of the Ad Hoc Committee studying Colby 's science needs went before the Building and Grounds Committee for loca- tion of a possible building site. It is one of the many necessary steps in the chain that leads to the improve- ment of Colby 's science depar tments. The last step will pr obabl y come sometime this winter when the Board of Trustees either arccepts , rejects , or demands revision of the Ad Hoc Committee ' s recommendations. Plans for the renovation of Colby's current science buildings , Keyes and Life Sciences, as well as for the creation of a new facility, were initiated in the spring of 1 974, when the CSFC made its report.
