...Greenberg, is that "you're never certain exactly what scoring the composer has in mind. All the notes are there, but the composer very rarely put down who was to sing or play them." To the formidable task of determining the tempo, dynamics and instrumentation of the worm-eaten scores, Greenberg brings a composer's skill, a musicologist's interest in research and instinctive good taste. He searches for clues to instrumentation by digging through such obscure miscellanea as the purchasing orders for a 16th-century English town band...
...getting Tony out. Nothing yet has worked -not even the ultimate weapon. Pitchers call it the "brushback"; batters call it a beanball. It is the highest compliment a pitcher can pay a hitter, and Oliva has been getting a lot of fan mail from the mound. He has eaten dirt at least a dozen times this spring.

The U.S.-owned mines in Chile produce 11% of the world's copper, but catastrophic 1960 earthquakes and rocketing inflation have eaten up much of the mineral wealth. Since 1958 the price of a loaf of bread has risen from 13? to 40?; in the past twelve months alone, the cost of living has climbed 50%. In Santiago last week, 12,000 students staged a violent, window-shattering riot...
