Those attending the Finke Theatre Saturday night enjoyed an outstanding evening of music from five accomplished clarinetists. An audience favorite was a tribute to Artie Shaw which included Star Dust, Frenesi and Begin the Beguine. They completed the performance with a rousing When the Saints Go Marching In. On exhibit in the concession gallery was the nature and wildlife paintings by Phil Schroeder.
