Conductor says disabled girl's noise was 'unruly'

OGDEN -- Weber State University music professor Michael A. Palumbo responded to critics Tuesday after audience members from the Sunday night concert he conducted contacted the media with complaints.

At issue was Palumbo's decision to stop the concert twice after he heard what he calls a high "howling" sound from a disabled audience member seated near the rear of Austad Auditorium at Weber State's Browning Center.

Palumbo's recollection of events that followed differs from that of some angry audience members, including Leila E. Van Tassell, of Eagle Mountain, who submitted a letter to the editor to the Standard-Examiner.
