...Shut Out." Then came the flurry of demands for Barnard's presence. CBS paid his air fare to the U.S. so that he could be interviewed on Face the Nation (TIME, Jan. 5)-and, according to CBS News President Richard Salant, donated $5,000 in a charitable gesture to the Christiaan Barnard Research Fund. Suddenly, says Lucy Jarvis, "we found ourselves shut out. We could hardly get near him"-although Barnard did appear on NBC's Today show...
...Electric Christmas was an eight-century leap away from the Pro Musi-ca's usual holiday fare. Every year- including this one-it climaxes its eleven-month season by presenting church performances of two 12th cen-tury music dramas, The Play of Daniel and The Play of Herod. Staged and costumed in period style, these productions unfold in vocal chants and instrumental passages of austere elegance and moving simplicity. White, 43, a musicologist and harpsichordist who took over the Pro Musica after Founder Noah Greenberg died in 1966, has no intention of abandoning such efforts. In fact he plans...

Boston radio stations, like those of most major U.S. cities, display minimal imagination in their programming. The two best-rated stations play a standard fare of top-forty rock, interspersed with the loud vacantminded prattle of their disc jockeys. Most of the rest divide air time between soupic housewife music (Mantovani, Perry Como) and the insufferable boring call-us-up-and-talk-about-it shows. A handful of FM stations play classical music regularly, but it still remains difficult to find good folk music or jazz--even on the FM band. The one noble exception to the dismal norm...
