...contribute generously to the cost of building new sculptures. Les Levine, whose transparent Star Garden was shown at Manhattan's Modern Museum this spring (TIME, May 5), built his work with $2,000 worth of plastics and labor donated by American Cyanamid. Businessman Don Lippincott is the angel behind the North Haven plant where Broken Obelisk was fabricated, invested $100,000 in it so that sculptors could produce works for civic groups and industry. U.S. Steel supplies Lippincott with its new Cor-Ten steel, which weathers to a russet brown, at a generous saving. Bethlehem Steel let Robert Murray...

DONIZETTI: L'ELISIR D'AMORE (2 LPs; Angel). The Elixir of Love is an 1832 comic opera that is a delightful collection of bouncy silliness couched in florid melody. Mirella Freni and Nicolai Gedda reproduce their entrancing Metropolitan Opera performances of two seasons ago, and they are complemented by the astonishing bass of Renato Capecchi, who combines unbelievable agility with mahogany-like richness in the role of a quack selling a love potion...
