BOSTON will enjoy the gifts of three conductors of the first magnitude this year: Seiji Ozawa, Claudio Abaddo, and Leon Kirchner; and Kirchner is providentially accessible to Harvard audiences as the conductor of the Boston Philharmonia. This excellent chamber orchestra serves the salutary purposes of offering varied programs, significant modern works, and vital playing, three qualities egregiously absent from the Boston Symphony Orchestra, which gives every indication of expiring into another seven months of unremittingly harsh and indifferent prosecutions of emulsified, vindictively pasteurized programs gleaming with lambent somnolence. Kirchner does not specialize in conducting twentieth century music, although...
...Claudio S. Buchwald '71 was sentenced for 30 days and fined $100 on charges of assault and battery for allegedly striking a policeman during the demonstration, a protest at the removal of a rent controlquestion from the November election ballot...
EDINBURGH INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL (Aug. 24-Sept. 13) this year has an Italian slant, featuring works by composers from Monteverdi and Corelli to Dallapiccola and Nono. Opera predominates, but the London Symphony Orchestra, the New Philharmonia, and such soloists as Pianists Claudio Arrau and Misha Dichter, Violinists Itzhak Perlman and Nathan Milstein, can also be heard in nonoperatic works from Brahms to Stravinsky...

...balance in the sets and in the play's structure, however, Shakespeare did not achieve balance in the quality of his text. An objective inspection of the script indicates that he seems not to have had his heart in the Claudio-Hero plot he borrowed from elsewhere. His chief achievement in the play are precisely those things he had to invent himself: the witty verbal skirmishing between Beatrice and Benedick, and the portrait of bureaucratic officialdom represented by the malapropistic Dogberry and his sorry crew. (Shaw is about the only person who has denied the wit of the high comedy...
