Return Trip

In his second consecutive performance in the 2000 International Carillon Concert Series, Ann Arbor's Richard Giszczak shifts his performance from last week's Father's Day Pops selection, to a bit more of a classical flavor. Still, he'll work in a few of his arrangements of lighter pieces.Mouret, Mozart, and Leen't Hart anchor a program that also includes Giszczak'z versions of several Richard Rodgers show tunes, including Climb Every Mountain, Younger Than Springtime, and Oh. What a Beautiful Mornin.'Giszczak, who has transcribed and arranged more than 100 works for carillon, was acting carillonist at the University of Michigan, where he studied the instrument under Margo Halsted. He is also a chemical engineer and currently oversees safety, hazardous waste, recycling, and the loading dock at the U-M Chemistry Department.All of the free concerts in the summer series are Sundays at 8 p.m., on the Allendale Campus. Bring lawnchairs, blankets, Frisbees, picnics, etc.
