...Malcolm Sargent produces a package (Elsie Morison, Marjorie Thomas, Richard Lewis, James Milligan; the Huddersfield Choral Society; the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra; Angel, 3 LPs, mono and stereo) that lacks the fire of Beecham, the vocal glories of some of the Ormandy passages, emerges as painstaking rather than impassioned. Perhaps the best performance of the crop is furnished by Hermann Scherchen (Pierrette Alarie, Nan Merriman, Leopold Simoneau, Richard Standen; the Vienna State Opera Orchestra and the Vienna Academy Chorus; Westminster, 4 LPs, stereo), which is marked by some lovely, light-textured choral passages, a translucent orchestral sound and a movingly...
Happy Papa. Cribmaking reached a peak in the 17th and 18th centuries, and there were no inhibitions against anachronism; in one Augsburg crib the Annunciation takes place in a miniature Louis XVI drawing room with the Angel Gabriel dressed like a court page...

It did. Last week, as workmen hauled shiny lab equipment into the new building, Manhattan Millionaire Charles Anderson Dana, back in his Park Avenue aerie, busily unrolled blueprints from other...
...three years Soprano Moffo has been riding high on the European opera and concert circuit. To U.S. opera buffs, she is known as the star of several fine recordings, including Madame Butterfly (RCA Victor) and Capriccio (Angel). As Verdi's consumptive heroine, she demonstrated last week that her acting is almost as good as her voice. Strikingly handsome in a hoopskirted, bare-shouldered, pink ball gown, she made the Violetta of Act I into a moving figure of feverishly hectic gaiety. As the opera progressed, the coquettish attitudes gave way gradually, until by the final act Violetta emerged...
