When asked about his country's tendency to employ a double standard in judging the East and West, the ambassador admitted that the West is expected to be wholly "pure...
...called Bab-el-Oued (pronounced Bablouette by its 50,000 inhabitants, who are mostly of Spanish, Italian and Jewish origin), a district of dark, dingy bars and cafes interspersed with modern shops, movie theaters and banks.

This Halasz recognized, and gave the orchestra the subtleties of dynamics and tempo demanded by its place in the opera...
