...previous version that the entire sub was raised was apparently wrong. What was recovered was the bulk of the weapons system installed in the vessel, which carried three SSN5 surface-to-surface nuclear missiles. This is according to the Pentagon sources, who stick by their accounts of a far fuller retrieval than previously conceded by the CIA. Thus, after another twist of the Glomar mystery, the successes-or failures-of the mission remain confused...
...first two movements were the most successful; the Scherzo proved extremely demanding for the strings. The triumphant fourth-movement Allegro needed, quantitatively, more than the single doublebass present, and qualitatively, a fuller and richer brass sound, especially from the trombones. Nevertheless, the concert in its totality was impressive and gratifying. Under the right conditions, there's no reason HRO can't be a consistently fine orchestra, and the group sounds as if it is well on the right track right...

Having played just about every male lead in recent G&S history, from Ralph Rackstraw to Nanki Poo, Fuller last year went backstage to direct a first-class Iolanthe. Now he's back as Frederic, the pirate apprentice, and he's even better than ever.

The Players come closer than any other theatrical group at Harvard to being an ensemble company. Cast members perform together in show after show; some, like the versatile Tom Fuller, who played just about every G & S hero from Ralph Rackstraw to Nanki Poo before directing Iolanthe last fall, are Harvard legends...
