...alternative to harvesting food directly from the sea. By using artificial ponds, lakes, streams and even cordoned-off estuaries and bays to raise fish, man can give nature a helping hand. Fish farming is hardly new; as long ago as 475 B.C., a Chinese scholar-statesman named Fan Li wrote the first how-to-do-it treatise.

When Regina Resnik's Clytemnestra (in the Hamburg Elektra) is in full cry, the camera suddenly becomes fashion conscious: it stoops and meticulously inspects her hemline (floor length). In an otherwise masterful Così fan Tutte, the camera focuses mostly on a collection of ambulatory bird cages, making nonsense of Ferrando's aria, Un' aura amoroso...
