Holiday for Harp (The Daphne Hellman Quartet; Harmony LP). Harpist Hellman produces some stunning sonorities with an instrument bred to less exotic climes. With the sound sometimes brittle and percussive, sometimes cobwebby soft, Harpist Hellman and her helpers (bass, guitar and drums) swing with sinuous brilliance through Summertime, Swingin' Shepherd Blues, Down the Road a Piece, giving each a fine crystalline gloss...
There was no such animal-human barrier in the work of team members headed by Dr. Leon Hellman. They were dealing with the breakdown products of natural human hormones as they go through the metabolic cycle. From the breakdown of testosterone and related hormones the researchers found two potent derivatives: androsterone and etiocholanolone, with properties different from those of their parent substances. Example: androsterone lowers the level of circulating cholesterol (though testosterone may raise it), may thus be useful in combating atherosclerosis and reducing the danger of heart attacks and many strokes; etiocholanolone triggers a rise in body temperature...

Group 20 is fortunate to have for this role the services of Max Adrian, who scored this past season as Dr. Pangloss in the Hellman-Bernstein musical version of Candide. He romps through the role with infectious panache. He hits the right tone at his first entrance, appearing in a properly hideous green-and-red costume that clashes with his black-and-orange shoes. He belches, eats and picks his teeth with his fingers, talks with food in his mouth, and makes the most of a vulgar, cackling laugh...
