Organist Lois Pardue and a string ensemble conducted by Kalman Novak will play works of Bach, Aaron Copeland, Edmund Haines, Handel, Henry Purcell and Walter Piston...
...whole life have I believed in God nor do I intend to start. I consider myself a true materialist. That never stopped me from visiting churches . . . splendid monuments of the past ...

He has mapped the world folk-song families, found surprising links between them. The pinch-voiced, samisen-playing geisha finds an echo in the Spanish mountain-farm laborer thumping a ximbomba drum; "the lonesome, death-ridden American cowboy is a blood cousin to the raga singer in India...
