Haven't I heard enough Mozart for one year?" This may very well be your initial reaction to the upcoming program of the Muncie Symphony Orchestra. While the answer to your first question is a simple "yes," your response to the second should be a most enthusiastic "no!" It is true that Mozart has seemingly saturated the classical music market this year, the bicentennial anniversary of the great composer's death. Every one of his compositions is now available on compact discs and in scholarly editions. Books and articles have been written, radio and television programs are receiving considerable airplay, and concert series of every kind reflect the public's fascination with his music. And in a move that staggers the imagination, the city M O Z art of New York is hosting a Herculean effort to perform every one of his more than six-hundred plus compositions. Yet we can never get enough Mozart. We are charmed by the spirit of his serenades and M O Z art , and divertimentos, uplifted by his masses and the (I)Requiem(I), moved by his sensitive portrayal of the human con.dition in .his operas, More M O Z art excited by his symphonies, amazed by the ease with which he produced his many great works and, finally, saddened by his premature death at the age of thirty by five. Yes, we as a community of music lovers must plead guilty to the charge of whole-hearted addiction to the music of Wolfgang Amadeus ANdREW Mozart. LEViN The above-mentioned Muncie Symphony Orchestra concert, an "Amadeus Bicentennial," will feature the many and varied facets of Mozart's music. As an added bonus, each of the three works on the program has an aura of mystery about it. A closer view reveals the intriguing qualities of these mysteries. The Symphony No. 39 in E-flat major, K. 543 was composed in 1788 for no known occasion. This m~y not s~em odd at first, until one remembers that Mozart was an extremely practical man on the subject of his music, composing almost exclusively to commissions. Composers in his day wrote symphonies for festive occasions. The concept of a symphony as "a ton~1 allegory of the life of man" (a reference to Mahler's Symphony No.2) was a complete anathema to the spirit of the Enlightenment. Yet we have no record of a commission or performance for Mozart's Symphony No. 38, nor for its companion works, the G-minor and the so-called "Jupiter" symphonies. Some writers of fanciful imagination have suggested that these three symphonies, his last in this genre, grew out of an inner compulsion to express deep emotions with no view toward public consumption. In all likelihood, though, he composed them for a series of performances that never materialized. B11 The Serenade in C-minor, K. 388 write in the four-movement composition, nor was the specter contains its own mystery. scheme usually reserved for the of his father's disapproving face Divertimentos and serenades of the more serious forms of responsible for his exhaustion and eighteenth century were generally string quartet and symphony? resulting decline in health.

I read so many guides from our affiliates -- so when one of note comes my way, it's undoubtedly refreshing. Your new format makes the guide very readable, and the articles are worth reading informative and fun. I hope your listeners agree and continue to open their checkbooks.

OJ W -' r ~~j. 3-31-92 Dear Nancy, I received my issue of Waves this week. As always, I am favorable impressed. I do not perceive myself as a rebel rouser but I just wanted to share a thought with you. The theme of the issue was Environmental Wellness. However on page 29 of the issue you informed readers of your exchanging names and addresses with other groups. It seems to me that this action would permit groups and organizations to add to the great quantity of '"junk mail" which those on your mailing list already receive. This additional waste of paper and increased frustration of those of us who are annoyed by the extra mail does not seem congruent with your "Becoming Environmentally Friendly" article on page 76. I am naive as to the motives of organizations which share mailing lists. I do not know if it generates revenue or locates donors for those who share. If that is the case, I can see why you do it. At any rate, yOil will find my label attached and I would ask that my name and address not be shared.

Is it serving that purpose? If discontinued, could advertisers be converted to program underwriting? Will a loss of $15,000 to $20,000 in ad revenue lead to a -similar gain in underwriting? A Scenario Discontinue WAVES as a magazine and produce a program guide - just program information, some highlights and station activities. Maybe retain a few advertisers to offset the cost of a guide. Offer the advertisers with outstanding contracts corresponding credit in on-air underwriting. This way we keep most of the revenue that has been committed and reduce out of pocket expenses. We are spending $40,000 to sell $20,000 in advertising -- is the resulting product worth the additional $20,000 for marketing purposes.
