Light-footed Halifax Folk Greet Ballet

By JOSEPH MacSWEEN Canadian Press Staff Writer

Long inured to the violent "square se in modern times to vari- ations of the "round dance," the Maritlmes are taking to classical ballet which has established an en- thusiastic learning public.

Juris Gotshalks and his beautiful wife, Irene Alpine. latest acquis- itions of the Halifax Conservatory of Music from Latvia. have but one complaint in their new life as teachers of ballet here—t.hey cant get. time time to care for their in~ font child.

Their Canadian careers heralded recently by a, ballet-concert at Dalhousie University, with which the conservatory is affiliated, the artists since have been swamped by applications for instruction.

This city is profiting from the effects of war through the arrival of skilled professionals like Got- shalka and Alpine, and their fel- low-oountrymsn-Teodor Brilts, an aoaxxiplished tenor.

Han Williams, jovial Bullsh- born music director of the 00-year- oid wrlservatory. expressed special pride in his youthful ballet teachers but points out that "all branches of music are taught here."

“Our object is to give the best possible grounding in all subjects including composition and theo- retical subjects." says the cnerllelif musician who is a. Fellow 0! thf Royal Academy of Music.

"Our hope,” he adds. "is that students who are Maritimers will stay in this part of the country and give their native land flhc bslwfll of their talents and training."

Proud ol Students

Mlr. Williams says that students of the conservatory now are scat- tered tlmugh all parts of the Em- pire and have done well in the world of music.

In. addition to the ballet teachers. two other Latvian professors have been added to the instructional staff since the end of the Second World War.

Walter Kaufmann who was a coal-poser and arranger wilili the BBC after leaving Riga, has been placed in charge of the plsnoforte department at the conservatory. The other, Marisa Vetra, an ex- perienced opera. singer. PFe5Id°5 over voice culture. A powerfully- lruilt man of middle age. he greets his pupils with bursts of DOeiTY and leads them into his sl/lldio as to a. picnic, arms akimbo and voice booming encouragement.
