THE GLASGOW BDXER
The Glasgow Boxer, People's Palace. Glasgow.
Occupying two sections at the top tloor, ‘The Glasgow Boxer‘ brings together a wide range at memorabilia. regardless— up to a point— at any intrinsic artistic merit. The primary aim is simply to record a segment at Glaswegian popular culture ratherthan to impose any narrow artistic line on it.
Promotional posters, contracts. trophies. old gloves, programmes and tamin snapshots all teature in the tirst sechon.
The second section. containing a series at tramed photographs ot Doormen. trainers. ‘opponents‘ (the away boxers who ‘are not expected to win’) and match otticlals are pictured plying their trade or relaxing alter a bout.
While someone not especially enthusiastic about boxing would be ill-advised to travel too tar to see ‘The Glasgow Boxer‘. any visit to the People's Palace is in any case always likely to unearth something at interest. (Stuart Bathgate).

BISHOP’S MOVE
Attermonths of speculation tollowing Stephen Carpenter‘s sudden departure last December, the SNO has tinally appointed someone to replace him. Not though as General Administrator. Taking the upgraded title at Chiet Executive — and no doubt upgraded salary too — is 56 year-old Christopher Bishop who comes to the SNO lrom the Philharmonia. where he was Managing Director since 1979 atterspending
many years with EMl. Ot his new job he says, ‘lt‘s very exciting, ot course. But the tact that there's quite a lot at administrative thingstotidy up meansl have to caretully balance what I'm doing.‘ And, he admits, ‘There's so much to discover—l don't even know the orchestra‘s names yet and, in a way, hardly know where the problems Iie.‘ With eightmonths ot
administration to catch up on. Bishop‘s
work will certainly be cut out as taras tinance and programming beyond this season is concerned. conductors and soloists otten having to be booked years in advance. Just a law days into the job. he is understandably cautious about what he gives away at his plans
torthe tuture. but, he feels, ‘The SNO is
an orchestra which plays too little outside Scotland. It ought to appear abroad. but it's not easy as it has a very strong commitment to its Scottish concerts. But, ityou plan tar enough ahead you take time in that year and tind anotherorchestra totill the bill. Occasionally, it not overdone. this sort
ot exchange can be quite a clever idea.‘ g
80 perhaps Scottish audiences may hear more than the SNO in its tuture
seasons. But what at the SNO just now?
‘l've a lot at taith in Bryden Thomson and it‘s a very tine orchestra.‘ says Bishop, ‘I wouldn't have taken the job it ldidn‘tthink so.‘ (Carol Main)
