Top designers dress Snoopy for birthday bash
PARIS (AP) — Bob Mackie,
Hermes and Issey Miyake probably
had nightmares about having to
dress a dog someday. But they and a
host of other high-fashion folks
leaped at the chance to dress Snoopy
and his sister Belle.
The world’s favorite beagle is-cele-
brating his 40th birthday with a ret
rospective at the Louvre’s Musee des
Arts Decoratifs where his creator,
Charles Schulz, received the Medal
for Arts et Lettres from the French
Ministry of Culture.
Part of the exhibition is “Snoopy
in Fashion,” some 300 plush dogs
dressed by some of the world’s top
designers.
Although the anniversary of
Schulz’ First “Peanuts” comic strip
doesn’t roll around until Oct. 2,
Snoopy and Belle started celebrating
early.
They are at the Louvre until April
22. Then they travel to Tokyo in
May and to Los Angeles in October.
Violinist Bell
to perform
Wednesday
Violinist Joshua Bell will per
form a five-composition recital at
8 p.m. Wednesday in Rudder
Auditorium as a presentation of
the MSC Opera and Performing
Arts Society.
Accompanied by pianist Jona
than Feldman, Bell will play selec
tions by Handel, Beethoven,
Saint-Saens, Ysaye 1 and
Wieniawski.
Bell is in the midst of a world
wide tour, with solo and sym
phony performances in the
United States, Europe and Asia.
This season he will play with
the New York Philharmonic Or
chestra and will give recitals in
Paris and London.
He has performed under the
direction of world-class conduc
tors such as Vladimir Ashkenazy,
Charles Dutoit, Andre Previn and
Michael Tilsoh Thomas.
An artist for the London/Decca
label, Bell recently released his
fifth album, Lalo Symphonic Es-
pagnole and Saint-Saens Violin
Concerto No. 3 with Charles Du
toit and the Orchestre Symphoni-
que de Montreal.
A renowned violinist since age
17, Bell, 22, is acclaimed as one of
the most promising young talents
in the international music com
munity.
Bell’s recital will begin with
Handel’s “Sonata in D Major for
Violin and Keyboard, Op. 1, No.
13”.
Beethoven’s “Sonata No. 7 in C
minor for Violin and Piano, Op.
30, No. 2” will follow.
The second half will feature
Saint-Saens’ “Sonata No. 1 in D
minor for Violin and Piano, Op.
75.”
Ysaye’s “Sonata No. 3 in D mi
nor for solo Violin, Op. 27, No. 3,
‘Ballade’ ” and Wieniawski’s “Po
lonaise in D major, Op. 4” will
close the recital.
