Edited by Michael Demarest, TIME'S Christmas cover was an especially satisfying assignment for those who worked on it. Researcher Clare Mead, before coming to TIME, taught high school in Texas as a Dominican nun. Researcher Margaret Mary Bach, a former chairman of the philosophy department at Marymount College, Tarrytown, N.Y., was a member in the order of the Sacred Heart of Mary. Writer Mayo Mohs often reported on religion from our Los Angeles bureau before coming to New York in 1966, and contributed to the chapter "Heaven and Hell" in TIME-LIFE'S book Can Christianity Survive...
...memorial concert of Brahms's Ein Deutsches Requiem with the Glee Club, Radcliffe Choral Society. University Chorus, and Harvard-Radcliffe Orchestra, all groups that G. Wallace Woodworth had conducted, was splendid. The only student concert which compares with it was the University Chorus's performance last Easter of Bach's St. John Passion.

His programs of Bruckner, Varese, Handel, Stravinsky, and Beethoven exemplified this catholicism...

These were not really my creations, they did not contain my history; 1 might search them in vain forever for any reflection of myself...
...time when the thrill of a composer's life was a concert performance of one of his works. Now most composers see the concert hall and the LP as separate, but equally rewarding, mediums. Penderecki prefers to hear romantic music in the concert hall, but listens to Bach and Handel in the quiet and privacy of his home. As for his own music, he thinks the dramatically extroverted St. Luke Passion belongs in the auditorium because it should involve people as a group. When it comes to such works as Polymorphia and Dies Irae, Penderecki believes that they sound...
