Billy Dean sings his 2004 hit “Let Them Be Little” with assistance from students from Canyon Elementary School last Saturday at the Cache Valley Cowboy Rendezvous in Hyrum. On the cover: Dean sang 18 songs during his performance at Mountain Crest High School.

FROM THE EDITOR The Cache Valley Cowboy Rendezvous is over for another year. But the impact from the event’s Educational Outreach Program is sure to go on for ... who knows how long?

Thanks to a grant from the Sorensen Legacy Foundation, the program helped provide education and entertainment opportunities at schools throughout Cache Valley leading up to last weekend’s event at Mountain Crest High School in Hyrum.

Six different artists, musicans and poets

visited classrooms last week, doing their best to inspire young students though poetry and music.

The same day I did a story on harmonica musician Gary Allegretto at Canyon Elementary School, my daughter came home excited about a visit poet Doris Daley had made to her school.

Then there was a Sunrise Elementary teacher who was thrilled with a stop made by “The Yodeling Cowboy” Ernie Sites.

“He captivated the kids right off the bat,” the teacher said. “He had them so engaged during the different activities and songs he did. He held their attention so well with his fun demeanor. The kids were eating right out of the palm of his hand.

“His visuals were amazing, and the

kids loved that they got to touch and be a part of the presentation when appropriate.

He was amazing, and we loved him. It fit perfect with our core of Cache Valley history.”

So, who knows how kids might have been motivated last week to help continue on the great Western tradition of cowboy music and poetry thanks to the Cache Valley Cowboy Rendezvous and the Sorensen Legacy Foundation?

But event founders Dale and Dawna Major and all the other people involved with the Cache Valley Cowboy Rendezvous certainly deserve a lot of credit for trying to reach out to today’s youth.

USU Jazz Combos concerts set for March 16 Utah State University’s Department of Music presents the spring Jazz Combos concert at 7:30 p.m.

Wednesday, March 16, in the Caine Performance Hall on the USU campus.

Combos are coached by Caine College of the Arts music department faculty

Max Matzen, Josh Skinner and Corey Christiansen.

“This is the first time since I have taken over Combo II that we’ve dedicated the entire semester to the study of one specific musician,” Matzen said.

“Thelonious Monk repertoire is great for the

students since it is both standard and the quirkiness of it appeals to their musical personalities.”

Skinner said those in attendance will have an opportunity to hear the results of hours of study and practice. Students will improvise and create music

based on jazz standards.

Tickets are $10 adults, $8 youth and seniors, $5 USU faculty and staff and free for USU students with ID. For more information, visit the CCA Box Office in room L101 of the Chase Fine Arts Center, call 797-8022 or visit arts.usu.edu.

all mixed up AFCO set to present ‘Passion’ Dr. Craig Jessop will conduct the critically acclaimed American Festival Chorus & Orchestra, along with a stellar cast of soloists, the USU Chamber Singers and the USU Women’s Choir, in a performance of J.S. Bach’s revered sacred masterwork, “St. Matthew Passion, BWV 244,” at 7 p.m. Friday, March 25, at the Ellen Eccles Theatre.

A free informance and open rehearsal, providing insight into the work, will be held at 7 p.m. Sunday, March 20, at the Logan Tabernacle.

Tickets to the performance at the Eccles Theatre at 43 S. Main St. are $13-$22. Children over 8 years old are welcome.

For more information, call 752-0026 or visit american-

festivalchorus.org.

Experiencing AFCO’s performance of this eloquent and profoundly moving work will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As a way to help bring this work to life for the audience, Jessop chose to use Robert Shaw’s English translation of the work.

“Shaw is very sensitive to the German textual/musical overlay and at the same time

very faithful to the Lutheran translation of the Bible as well,” Jessop says.

The Good Friday performance date was carefully chosen as well.

“Bach initially wrote the ‘St. Matthew Passion’ as a way to present the Passion story in music at Good Friday vesper services,” Jessop

Aizuri Quartet, Rusinek will play Monday When Utah State University faculty member Dennis Hirst announced plans for this year’s Wassermann Festival, he emphasized that it should more accurately be referred to as the Wassermann Concert Series. He referenced the original intent of the festival’s namesake, Irving Wassermann, for the “series” concept.

“We celebrate Mr. Wassermann’s love of music and teaching,” Hirst said when launching the 201516 series. “He wanted to bring great music performances to campus for our students and, by extension, to our community. We owe a lot to Mr. Wassermann for that vision.”

At the conclusion of the 2015-16 series, we also owe a lot to Hirst for bringing that vision back to the festival. The season has seen an impressive array of artists from diverse dis-

ean said, then added with

ee, Florida area, Dean LDS Church, “played y just become one of my

tos ter

favorite songs of all time.”

“It’s the perfect marriage of lyric, melody and message,” Dean continued. “… And some of you from the church probably sang it from the time you were very small. But I know the song from being a grownup and trying to find that child again.”

“So, we recorded it — Marv and I did — and it’s on a little album called ‘Friends and Brothers’ we did with my buddy Thurl Bailey. But it’s called, ‘I Am a Child of God.’” Although he recorded his version of “I Am A Child of God” more than a decade ago, listening to Billy Dean, who is best known for a string of country hits in the early ’90s, perform a primary song from the LDS Church clearly came as a huge surprise to the crowd.

Make that a moving surprise.

“When he sang, ‘I Am a Child of God,’ you could see grown men tearing up,” co-event organizer Dawna Major would state later.

Dean’s performance resonated so strongly with the audience that it ended up giving him a standing ovation — a moment that clearly touched Dean, who is not Mormon but has a number of friends who are LDS singers and musicians.

“Come on now,” he finally said, “you’re going to get me crying.”

——— Now nearly 54 years old, Billy Dean came to Hyrum last week with his music back on the radio and his name back on the charts.

Dean has recently served as a mentor and producer for up-and-coming country artist Jason Pritchett, and the two recently released a duet entitled, “Already a Dead Man.” “It’s a song about two gunfighters that has a good message, which is basically, live by the gun, die by the gun,” Dean explained in an interview just prior to his performance at the Cache Valley Cowboy Rendezvous.

“I play the old outlaw, while Jason plays the young out-

law.

Of course, I wrote it as the young guy — Kenny Rogers and I were going to do it together — but time just slipped away, and the next thing you know, I’m the old guy.”

It doesn’t seem that long ago that Dean was the young guy. Or even “Billy the Kid.” Dean, who first got noticed for thanks to an appearance on “Star Search,” gave up a college basketball scholarship to move to Nashville and try to break through as a singer-songwriter. He ended up releasing his first album, “Young Man,” in 1990, and went on to release a string of hits including, “Only Here for a Little While,” “Somewhere in My Broken Heart,” “If There Hadn’t Been You” and his signature song, “Billy the Kid.” Although he still owns a ranch in central Tennessee, Billy Dean and the Steel Horses are now regulars at the Starlite Theatre in Brandon, Missouri.

“It’s nice to be able to put up the ’90s generation of country music — my generation of country music — up on its feet there,” Dean said. “That was a good decade.

The ’90s were a good decade for country music.”

In between stints in Branson, Dean tours throughout the country, performing acoustic sets at a lot of events similar to the Cache Valley Cowboy Rendezvous.

“I love anything having to do with cowboy poetry and the Western motif of country music,” he noted. “It’s one of the things that I’ve been writing a lot, trying to put a little bit of Western back into country music. So, it’s great that folks are nice enough to come out and support it.”

In the process of writing an acoustic album that he hopes to release sometime within the next year — “It’s real different,” he explained, “a lot of the stuff that’s on my phone right now, I’ll go back and listen to it and think, Wow, this is the album I’ve been wanting to do my whole life” — Dean said he’s been surprised by the song requests his fans have been making of late.

‘Zootopia’ finally knocks off ‘Deadpool’

LOS ANGELES (AP) — “Deadpool’s” three-week reign atop the box office has ended thanks to a handful of new openers, including “Zootopia” and “London Has Fallen.”

The top spot went to Disney’s “Zootopia” which staged a box office stampede in its first weekend in North American theaters with $73.7 million, according to comScore estimates Sunday. It’s the fourth highest March opening ever and a best for a Disney Animation three-day debut.

The studio’s previous recordholder, “Frozen,” grossed $67.4 million over three days in its Thanksgiving opening.

Critics and audiences love the film, which features the voices of Jason Bateman and Ginnifer Goodwin. It got a coveted A CinemaScore and a near-perfect

Rotten Tomatoes score. According to exit polls, families made up 73 percent of opening weekend audiences.

Dave Hollis, Disney’s Executive Vice President of Distribution, said “Zootopia” is the latest in a “creative renaissance” for the Disney Animation

group, including “Tangled,” ‘’Frozen,” ‘’Big Hero 6” and “Wreck-It Ralph.”

“There is consistency at a really high level of delivering great stories, amazing worlds and characters who people can relate to,” Hollis said, noting that “Zootopia” is the only true

all-audience film in the marketplace until Disney’s “The Jungle Book” bows on April 15.

“Zootopia” also brought in $63.4 million internationally, where it is in its fourth weekend. The film has grossed $232.5 million globally to date.

In second place, “London Has Fallen,” a sequel to the “Die Hard” in the White House pic “Olympus Has Fallen,” earned $21.7 million. The main cast returned for the film, including Gerard Butler, Aaron Eckhart and Morgan Freeman, which cost a reported $60 million to make.

While it’s a decent debut, it does lag behind the first film’s $30 million opening. But it’s a welcome change of pace for Butler, whose “Gods of Egypt” bombed in its opening last weekend.

In its fourth weekend in theaters, “Deadpool” fell to third place with $16.4 million, bringing its domestic total to a staggering $311.2 million.

The Tina Fey comedy “Whiskey Tango Foxtrot,” meanwhile, debuted in fourth with an estimated $7.6 million. The film cost a reported $35 million to produce.

The movie, which finds Fey’s journalist character on assignment in Afghanistan, has garnered mixed to positive reviews from critics. According to exit polls, audiences were 56 percent female and 89 percent over 25.

Fey’s last film, “Sisters,” was budgeted at $30 million. It opened to $13.9 million against “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” and went on to earn $87 million domestically.

‘Downton Abbey’ ends run before 9.6 million viewers NEW YORK (AP) — “Downton Abbey” said goodbye to an estimated 9.6 million viewers on Sunday night, lowering the curtain on PBS’ most successful series in ages with its fourth most-watched episode.

Only the premiere episodes of the last three seasons had larger audiences, topped by the 10.2 million in 2014, the Nielsen company said. The numbers will rise when time-shifted viewing is taken into account; the 2014 season premiere reached 15.5 million viewers after a month.

“These six seasons of ‘Downton Abbey’ have truly been a fantastic ride for all of us in the public television family,” said Paula Kerger, PBS president and CEO. The household help on “Downton Abbey” proved no match for Donald Trump, Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio as television stars. Fox News Channel’s telecast of last Thursday’s GOP presidential debate was the week’s mostwatched program with just under 17 million viewers.

Fox News had the unusual achievement of beating Fox’s broadcast network in the weekly ratings, Nielsen said.

CBS won the week in prime-time, averaging 7.7 million viewers. NBC had 6.4 million, and won among the 18-to-49-year-old demographic most attractive to advertisers.

The GOP debate led Fox to the top as the most popular cable network, averaging 4.14 million viewers in prime-time. CNN had 2.08 million, AMC and HGTV tied at 1.64 million and USA had 1.58 million.

On the week of Super Tuesday, NBC’s “Nightly News” (8.924 million) and ABC’s “World News Tonight” (8.917 million) essentially tied for the top of the evening new ratings. The “CBS Evening News” had 7.3 million.

For the week of Feb. 29-March 6, the top 10 shows, their networks and viewerships: Republican Presidential Debate, Fox News Channel, 16.83 million; “NCIS,” CBS, 15.45 million; “The Voice” (Monday), NBC, 13.33 million; “The Walking Dead,” AMC, 12.82 million. “The Voice” (Tuesday), NBC, 12.29 million; “NCIS: New Orleans,” CBS, 11.73 million; “60 Minutes,” CBS, 11.44 million; “Madam Secretary,” CBS, 10.19 million; “The Big Bang Theory,” CBS, 10.08 million; “Criminal Minds,” CBS, 9.32 million.

“St. Matthew Passion” was first performed on Good Friday in 1727 at St. Thomas Church in Leipzig. After Bach’s death, the St. Matthew Passion was virtually forgotten and never published until the young Felix Mendelssohn revived it in 1829.

To speak any more about the plot or its twists and turns would be disingenuous. It’s better left knowing as little as possible.

Whether we like it or not, the constant whirring of the movie marketing machine is an unwanted participant in the movie-going experience. With big-time franchises we’re constantly bombarded by trailers, casting rumors, script teases, set photos, and the list goes on.

So, it’s nice to sit down to an apparent sequel, made by a big studio, starring notable actors, and know absolutely nothing about it.

The new kinda “Cloverfield” sequel, born from J.J. Abrams’ Bad Robot production company, thrives on standard plot devices in what’s essentially a lockedroom mystery.

We begin with a wordless opening that sets the suspense level rather high. A young woman, whom later we find out is name Michelle (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), is going through a rather traumatic experience.

She’s leaving somewhere quickly. We don’t know why she’s running, only that she is.

Michelle wakes up in a strange bunker after being involved in a violent car wreck. She’s

‘10 Cloverfield Lane’ is a ‘fun film’

Billy Dean reacts as the audience at the Cache Valley Cowboy Rendezvous gives him a standing ovation following his rendition of “I Am A Child of God” last Saturday.

Billy Continued from Page 7 “I’m really happy to hear they want some of the deeper album cuts — not necessarily the hits, but some of the songs now that people have discovered by digging in a little bit deeper into some of the albums that I’ve done,” Dean said.

“I asked a room full of people earlier today what they wanted to hear, and nobody really mentioned the hits, which was fun. That’s good because there are a lot of songs that didn’t make it to country radio that I felt like I would have loved for people to have heard.”

——— That was rather obvious during Billy Dean’s performance on the stage at Mountain Crest.

He said he didn’t have a set list of songs he planned to sing, and the tall, handsome singer-songwriter with great hair and perfect teeth, never got around to performing some of his biggest hits like “Somewhere in My Broken Heart” and didn’t play “Billy the Kid” and “Once in a While” from the “8 Seconds” soundtrack until late in his set.

Rather, Dean mixed in a few new songs, including one he collaborated on with Clay Walker, along with some covers like Guy Clark’s “The Cape” and Dave Mason’s “We Just Disagree” and a lot of those “deeper” cuts like “Two of the Lucky Ones” and “Laura Nadine.”

But “Billy the Kid” did acknowledge that one common theme in his music is the innocence of youth, which led to a encore of The Oak Ridge Boys’ “Thank God For Kids” shortly after he performed his huge 2004 hit, “Let Them Be Little,” while backed by members of the Canyon Colt Choir from nearby Canyon Elementary School.

A song written when his two children were much younger about kids and parents savoring childhood, Dean shared a story about what happened when he left his son and daughter for the weekend with his 70-somethingold mother.

“I went to pick ‘em up on Monday and said, ‘Mom, how did it go?’ And she said, ‘Well honey, I heard that new song of yours on the radio, and I’m proud of you. It’s got a great message.

But I’ll tell you right now, you can let yours be little somewhere else,” Dean recalled with a huge grin.

“They just wore her right out.”

The March 14 concert program in Logan begins with Mozart’s “Quintet in A major, K. 581” with the Aizuri Quartet and Rusinek.

Hirst calls this a significant work for clarinet that is exquisitely beautiful. It was written by Mozart for a friend, the virtuoso Anton Stadler, in 1789 — late in Mozart’s life.

“The 2015-2016 Wassermann Festival Concert Series was designed with one primary goal,” Hirst said. “We wanted to feature great music making in a variety of disciplines — that’s the experience I wanted for our students and the community. This season represented something new. We’ve covered masterpieces of J. S. Bach to music written within the last year. We’ve explored the keyboard through not just the piano, but also the organ and the harpsichord.

And we conclude with a chamber ensemble which in many ways represents the musical realization of what the keyboard player hopes to do with two hands. It’s been a remarkable season.”
