...eyed silence millions watched the purgatorial unpeeling of the Nixon soul as angel hosts intoned, "Will he ever say to the silent Witness, "God be merciful to me a sinner and save me for Jesus' sake'?" Colson and Magruder did it; why can't Richard Nixon...
Dvorak: Symphony No. 7 in D-Minor. (London Philharmonic Orchestra, Carlo Maria Giulini conductor, Angel; Concertgebouw Orchestra, Amsterdam, Colin Davis conductor, Philips.) No other of Dvorak's nine symphonies equals the nobility and deep melancholy of this landscape of rich melody and subtly changing orchestral color. The warm, spacious performance by Giulini would be a winner at almost any time. Right now, however, it comes up against Davis and the Concertgebouw in one of their most electrifying collaborations. The lilting Czech dance rhythms in the Scherzo, for example, have the kind of freedom and spontaneity one would expect from...
Bach: Partitas No. 1 in B-Flat and No. 2 in C-Minor. (Igor Kipnis harpsichordist, Angel.) As musical forms go, the Baroque suite or partita was in its old age when Bach decided to have the final word on the subject.

That strategic infusion, claims Adela LaFora Holzer, earned her $2 million. It also earned her a heap of fame among show biz folk and set her on the road to becoming a big-time theatrical producer. Actors, agents, composers, publishers-and, of course, psychiatrists-loved to mix with Adela and her third husband, Peter Holzer...
...there is a Kunstlied (art song) Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau has not recorded in that mellifluous, burnished voice, it is not worth the vinyl. He has of late taken up conducting, and his lyric versions of Schubert's Symphonies Nos. 5 and 8 ("Unfinished") can be found on an Angel LP. Yet Fischer-Dieskau has found the time and talent for a new career: literature. Last year he produced Wagner and Nietzsche, a lively account of the celebrated battle of composer and philosopher...
