...Complete Piano Sonatas (Angel). Artur Schnabel's death in 1951 did not slow the growth of his reputation as a pianist. In his time, he was considered the world's only true interpreter of Beethoven, and a matchless player of Mozart, Schubert and Brahms as well. But in the age of pianistic wizardry that has followed him, he seems even more-a musician among pianists, an artist among musicians.

His daughter Philippine, 28, is an actress on the French stage, and his niece Nicole, 39, produces films...

Here, with little help from the Paris Conservatory Orchestra under Georges Prétre, she sings Ravel, Duparc and Debussy with ease and grace...
...drags. Much of the credit for its success must go to the supporting characters. The chorus looks as good as it sings and dances--and it does those very well. Particular notice should be given Felicity Colby, as the deadpan fan, Carol Derris as Kim's best friend, and Angel Phelan, the ludicrously seductive secretary. Strong support also comes from Jaye Schulman, the persistent mother, and George Selden, versatile Mayor and Shriner chieftain...
