Don: The new auditorium (Performing Arts Center) in the newly rebuilt Roosevelt High School in Seattle officially seats 750 people. It also houses a completely rebuilt M.P. Möller Pipe Organ. - Opus 6861, 1940. This is not your typical average high school and arts program. The Roosevelt Jazz Band often takes top honors in the Essentially Ellington competition in New York. My grandson will be performing a clarinet solo in the orchestra concert there next week. Anita: Welcome to Mudcat - nice to meet you. I enjoyed your new CD - thanks to Bob for introducing you to me. To everyone else: We produce this on-line publication, the NW HOOT, every two months. I would be happy to put you on our email list (a link is on the NW HOOT home page). Anyone interested in submitting an article, contact me. Oh, and Bob: I think Woody and Pete learned their protest songs outside of public schools. Cheers, S. in Seattle
