By DON ATKINSON JR.
“Glory,” starring Matthew
Broderick and Denzel Washing
ton, is without a doubt one of the
finest films available on video in
1990.
Set during the Civil War years
of 1862-1863, “Glory” chronicles
the creation of the first black
fighting unit, the 54th Regiment
of Massachusetts Volunteer In
fantry. The story is largely seen
through the eyes of commanding
officer Col. Robert Gould Shaw
(Broderick).
Shaw, the son of wealthy par
ents and an abolitionist, gets his
first taste of war during the
bloody and indecisive Battle of
Antietam. Disillusioned, he re
turns home a hero and is
promptly offered command of
the 54th, a yet-unfored regiment.
Although he lacks command
experience, 25-year-old Shaw is
full of idealism and he struggles
endlessly with his new position.
IDEO
spotlight:‘Glory f
He makes many mistakes but
never gives up
t, th
His unit, the 54th, is made up
largely of runaway slaves and
newly-freed blacks with total
membership eventualy reaching
1,000.
Among the soldiers are Trip
(Washington) and Rawlins (Mor
gan Freeman). Although both are
runaway slaves, they share little in
common. Trip is full of hatred to
wards the world, whereas Rawlins
is a gently but strong-willed man.
Aside from being a much-
needed history lesson, “Glory” is
much more.
The films shows the impor-
tacne of human dignity. To the
soldiers of the 54th, dignity was
so mportant that they were will
ing to die for it. By volunteering
to fight and die, they showed a
largely racist society that they de
served respect.
The 54th Regiment eventually
proved its battle-worthiness dur
ing an attack on Fort Wagner in
South Carolina. Because of the
valor shown, the Union Arm)
opened enlistment to more than
180,000 blacks. President Abra
ham Lincoln later credited the
black fighting units with being
decisive factors in helping the
union with the war.
During the climactic final as
sault on Fort Wagner, the soldiers
finally received the dignity they
’ td.
had so long been denied
Winner of three Academy
Awards, “Glory” is truly an ex
ceptional film. With the excep
tion of one historical goof (sol
diers were not allowed to be
flogged at the time), “Glory”isac-
curate in every detail.
Featuring a strong message as
well as a powerfully dramatic sto
ryline, “Glory” is definitely worth
renting.

Pianist keys up for chamber series’ opener
By RUDY CORDOVA JR.
The sound of music wll be in the air tonight as the
University Chamber Series presents its first concert of
the year. Lori Sims in her Bryan-College Station debut
will perform a program of works by Mozart, Schu
mann, Brahms and Samuel Barber.
Sims, a winner of numerous competitions including
the Kosciusko Foundation Chopin Competition, is a
graduate of Peabody Conservatory in Baltimore and a
graduate student at Yale University. Originally from
Denver, Colorado, she has pursued her goal of becom
ing a world-famous pianist since she First began to play
the piano.
“I started out listening to my parents play the piano,”
Sims says, “and they began to teach me as they saw my
interest in piano grow.”
Sims has studied with many of America’s most nota
ble teachers including Leon Fleisher, Claude Frank,
Daniel Pollack and Larry Graham. Last year she won
the Concerto Competition Award for first-year recital
at Yale. “Private recitals are something I used to do for
family and friends,” she says.
Sims has learned what it takes to be a performer
through the 18 years she has endured in studying the
art of music. “I feel I’m a tempermental person,” Sims
says, “but you have to have a certain professionalism
when you become an artist.”
Her professionalsim extends to her opinions about
the age of recording. Live performance has lost much
of its popularity since the onset of audiotechnological
inventions.
“Nowadays, everything can be mechanically manipu
lated,” she says. “Don’t get me wrong, it has its place,
but it can’t show human emotions, which is what art is
all about.”
Like other female artists, Sims has had to deal with
the problem of gender. Of the well-known pianists of
the world, very few women top the list.
“There is a certain stigma that women could only
play certain repertoire,” Sims says.
When asked if there was anything she could not han
dle, she confidently replies, “No.”
The University Chamber Series is a part of the Music
Program and sponsored by the College of Liberal Arts
and the Department of Philosophy and Humanities.

Their 1990-91 season will present six concerts
ing Sims’ performance which is presented in associate
with the Bryan-College Station Music Teachers Assoai
tion.
“The University Chamber Series presents opporti
nity to students so that people can appreciate theconni
bution of the great masters,” Dr. Daniel Fallon, dean'
the College of Liberal Arts, says.
“We have some of the best students in the state,”Fi
Ion says. “Many have studied music, but the culturalo
portunities have not been well developed.”
“If you hope to have a broad education, you can't
about it without some kind of fine arts,” Fallon sail
“Within a year or two, we hope to offer a minor in m
sic.”
Tonight’s concert begins at 8:00 in the
Theatre. Tickets are available at the MSC Box OOi
and Foley’s. Individual tickets are $5 for studentsan
senior citizens and $8 for adults. Series tickets for
concerts start at $20. For more information dial81

‘Old Army’
exhibit
salutes Corps
in MSC gallery
By RUDY CORDOVA JR.
The MSC Visual Arts Commit
tee is just one way that Texas
A&M students can explore their
interests in the arts. Beginning to
day, Visual Arts will present “Old
Army,” a collection of works on
paper by Timothy Vanya.
A native of Texas, Vanya is a
graduate of the University of
Houston, and a veteran police of
ficer with the Houston Police De
partment. He brings his work to
Texas A&M in an effort to cap
ture student life on campus. This
first exhibit will highlight the
Corps of Cadets and their contri
bution to the university.
Vanya is a member of the
Houston and Pasadena Gulf
Coast Art Leagues and has re
cently been accepted by the Arch
way Gallery in Houston. By
firmly establishing the past,
Vanya hopes to search for the fu
ture.
Joe Fenton, Visual Arts ad
viser, says “Timothy is a very lik
able, down-to-earth person with a
lot of talent.”
“Old Army” is an exhibit in
pencil drawings. “If you can’t
draw, you can’t be a great artist,”
Fenton says. “Pencil drawings are
a cleanliness and freshness that’s
real, instead of being covered up
by charcoal and paint,” he adds.
“Old Army” will be on display
at the Visual Arts Gallery
through October 31. The gallery
is located on the first floor of the
MSC.
A reception honoring Timoth)
Vanya will be held Tuesday al
7:00 p.m. outside the Visual Arts
Gallery. Vanya will be presentat
the reception and every Salurdaj
in October to visit with the public.
The Visual Arts is looking for
ward to an exciting year with 11
major exhibits and one juried stu
dent show. Their theme for the
year is “something for everyone.'
They hope to satisfy everyone’s
interest in the visual arts with a
variety of displays. “We want for
the visual arts what OPAS has
done for the performing arts,’
Fenton says.
With 210 active members, the
committee hopes to inform, e
cate and entertain through vh
arts. As well as being artists, the
students serve as tour guides for
the Forsyth Galleries. Through
the 1990 Fall “Art Lesson/Appre
ciation Project” they wish to pro
mote the art of drawing am
appreciation for the visual arts.
