From there, two duets will follow,featuring the music of VincenzoBellini and Giuseppe Verdi, two of

opera’s great composers, gifted atwriting significant, powerful musicto show off a singer’s dramatic capa-bilities.

Lighter works from Mozart andRossini are next, the former featur-ing Bay View clarinetist Wallis Vore,along with Baggott and pianist CaseyRobards.

Tom was an active supporter ofRock at the Rec and an enthusiasticparticipant in the King Arthur’s Courtgospel choir. Tom had a lifelong loveof music and even appeared on the EdSullivan show with his college choir,the University of Michigan Glee Club.

Tom played an important role inexpanding Bay View’s musical pro-gramming to include other genres,such as rock and jazz, to complementBay View’s rich classical music her-itage, which dates back to the 1880’s.The current vibrancy of Bay View’smusical offerings owes much to Tom’sfree spirit.

Rock at the Rec affords some of theBay View conservatory musicians theopportunity to showcase their multi-dimensional talents as they join KingArthur’s Court on stage. Look forChris and Melissa Ludwa and B.J.Griffin, a cello student, to inspire theaudience with their marvelous voicesthis year.

King Arthur’s Court first per-formed at the Rec Club in 1966 andthe band and its fans look forward tothe annual benefit concert to supportthe Bay View recreation department asone of the highlights of the summer.Don’t miss this year’s concert.

Opera’s greatest hits on tap for Wednesday

Jeffrey Picón (left), tenor, andRaymond Feener, baritone, are justtwo of the Bay View faculty mem-bers who will perform at “OperaNight” Wednesday, July 14.

Mary Catherine Dykhouse, a singerand professor of voice, as well as a longtime member of the Bay ViewCommunity, died April 16 of coloncancer in Pittsburgh. She was 46.

At 6, Ms. Dykhouse made her debuton the Bay View stage as Gretl in “TheSound of Music.” When her fatherasked what she best liked about per-forming, she told him, “the applause.”

As a teacher at Point Park Universityin Pittsburgh, Ms. Dykhouse tookdelight in applauding and following herstudents’ work, said her husband, JoeStuligross. More than 50 of her formerstudents now perform on Broadway,regionally and nationally. “She was veryproud of that,” Mr. Stuligross said.

Mr. Stuligross said his wife had aquick wit, warned students that no gooddecision was ever made after midnightand could be sharply, yet playfully, can-

did about a studentperformance.

Ms. Dykhousewas born in Detroit,the daughter ofDavid Dykhouse andthe late CarolineDow. She graduatedfrom East LansingHigh School in 1982

and earned a bachelor’s degree in voicefrom the University of Wisconsin,where she met her husband, whom shemarried in 1988. She earned a master ofmusic degree from Westminster ChoirCollege in Princeton, N.J., in 1994.

Ms. Dykhouse first taught voice atPrinceton University and the LongySchool of Music. In 1997, she and Mr.Stuligross moved to Pittsburgh, whereshe founded the vocal program atDuquesne University’s City Music

Center and began teaching at Point Park.

“She was an integral part of ourwork here,” said Ronald Allan-Lindblom, dean of Point Park’sConservatory of Performing Arts andPittsburgh Playhouse artistic director.

She appeared in many Bay View per-formances: “Music Man,” “Oklahoma,”and most recently as Mother Abbess in“The Sound of Music.”

In addition to her father and hus-band, she is survived by two daughters,Clara and Anna; a son, Jacob; and twobrothers, David Dykhouse Jr. and JayDouglas Dykhouse.

A memorial service will take placeat 2 p.m. Saturday, July 10, at HallAuditorium, followed by a reception atEvelyn Hall. Contributions may bemade to a scholarship fund created inMs. Dykhouse’s memory in Bay View.

The Bay View Pops Orchestra, aprofessional ensemble made up of thefaculty and conservatory students ofthe Bay View Music Festival this sum-mer, will offer a concert of audiencefavorites at 8 p.m. Sunday, July 11, atHall Auditorium.

Also on the program are the win-ners of the Adrian Boyer Aria/Concertocompetition, who will perform theirwinning selections with the orchestra,led by Artistic Director Chris Ludwa.

The concert opens with AaronCopland’s haunting “Fanfare for theCommon Man,” a work he wrote to stir

patriotic feelings inAmerican hearts justas the world waspreparing for WorldWar II. From there,the winners of theAdrian Boyer com-petition will trans-port the audiencewith exceptional tal-ent.

After the awards are presented tothe winners, the concert will follow thesuccessful formula of most profession-al pops orchestras, featuring a blend ofnostalgia, memorable melodies, and a

chance to experi-ence the power of afull orchestra. Onthe setlist are suchfavorites as the blue-grass hit “Turkey inthe Straw,” “TheBattle Hymn of theR e p u b l i c , ”Tchaikovsky’s “1812Overture,” andmany more.

The Bay View Post Office providesan excellent service and gatheringpoint, serving both as a practical busi-ness and social gathering place. Toassist the staff in carrying out theirduties, we ask for your cooperationregarding a few items.

Saturdays the Post Office is notopen. Employees come in to accept

the mail drop off and sort it and placeit in the boxes. As a courtesy to mem-bers, packages are given out at the rearentrance when requested. The volumeof requests for packages has reached alevel that is becoming difficult for theclerks to get the mail out and com-plete their work. Federal law requiresthat mail be boxed by 11 a.m. Drop off

varies and at times it is difficult tomeet this standard.

The clerks will continue to assist inany requests; however, to help out, weask that package pick up on Saturdaysbe limited to urgent items, such asmedical care items or anything ofextreme importance. Any help youcan provide will be much appreciated.

By Stu SmithRed Light Management

I grew up in Bay View, but I like tothink of it more as “Bay View grew meup.”

My career – an adolescent dreamborn of late-night “when I grow up…”conversations with friends at The Recor on cottage porches – surely wouldn’thave happened had I not spent sum-mers in Bay View.

I’m quite fortunate to be workingfor one of the top music managementfirms in the industry, Red LightManagement, helping guide the careersof our acts like Phish, Dave MatthewsBand, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill,Radiohead, My Morning Jacket, HerbieHancock, The Decemberists, and BlindPilot, to name a few.

Now, the reason I write here: Irecently helped sign the insanely awe-some band Punch Brothers, who playin Bay View at 8 p.m. Thursday, July15, in Hall Auditorium. Neither mywords (nor those in my Thesaurus) cando their music justice. Suffice it to say:this is one of the best bands playingmusic today.

And trust me, I don’t make a claimlike that lightly. Or, if not me, trust JonPareles, music critic (if I could, I’d put“critic” in 72 point font) from The NewYork Times, who wrote last Sunday:“Punch Brothers tuck their instrumen-tal prowess into songs, behind orbetween the arching melodies carriedby Chris Thile’s high, aching voice.” OrThe Wall Street Journal’s Jim Fusili,who, after seeing the band at Bonnaroolast month, called them “across-the-

board excellent…”

No, “Punch Brothers” is not ahousehold name. Yet. The band’s newalbum, Antifogmatic, debuted at #1 onthe Billboard Heatseekers Chart lastmonth. They just performed on TheTonight Show, toured recently withSteve Martin (yes, that Steve Martin),and sold out their album release showin New York City, which was one of thebest shows I’ve ever attended – threeencores, need I say more?

Yes, the band plays bluegrass instru-ments. But this ain’t bluegrass. Whatgenre, then, you ask? It’s rock, it’s clas-

sical, it’s blues, it’s indie, it’s… I don’tknow – all of the above? None of theabove? Their original music is, ofcourse, the heart of the live show. Butthey’re also known to throw in theoccasional cover tune – of late coveringbands like The White Stripes, OfMontreal, Radiohead, The Strokes,McLusky (!), The Beatles, even Bach.

If I haven’t convinced you to buy aticket yet, how’s this? YOU MUST GOTO THIS SHOW, IT WILL BLOWYOUR MIND! If it doesn’t, come findme on the beach and I’ll refund yourmoney.

A “social history” of Bay View willbe the topic of a PowerPointPresentation by Mary Jane Doerr at 7p.m. Thurssday, July 15, at EvelynHall, given under the auspices of theHistoric Awareness Committee.

Working with the Little TraverseHistory Museum, Ms Doerr has writ-ten a book entitled Bay View, AnAmerican Idea. Unlike previous bookswhich cover the institutional history,this book focuses on prominent indi-viduals in Bay View’s history anddraws upon Ms. Doerr’s many years ofarticles and interviews as a specialwriter for the Petoskey News-Review.

Bay View is an historical mergingof two distinctly American move-ments, the camp meeting and the cul-tural assembly. Its designation as aNational Historic Landmark in 1987is acknowledgment of the communi-ty’s importance and the part it hasplayed in Michigan and American his-tory.

Today, the accessibility of newspa-pers back to 1873, the Internet, andeBay have made this history possible.The book is 208 pages with over 180historic pictures with present dayphotographs by professional photog-rapher Robert Cleveland. His Gicleeprints will be available for purchase atthe presentation.

Larry and Priscilla Massie atPriscilla Press are publishing thisbook with the introduction by Dr.Philip Mason, professor emeritus atWayne State University. It will beavailable for purchase at the booklaunch 7:30 p.m. Saturday, July 24, atat the Little Traverse HistoricalMuseum in Petoskey.

The book is priced at $29.95 andorders can now be made at the TerraceInn, McLean & Eakin Booksellers inPetoskey or at Petoskey’s HistoryMuseum. Orders are now beingaccepted on the McLean & Eakinwebsite www.mcleanandeakin.com/.

Ms. Doerr will be signing books atSidewalk Sales Friday, July 30, atMcLean & Eakin from 10 a.m.-12p.m. Also orders will be accepted July15 at Ms. Doerr’s presentation. Thepresentation will last one hour.
