...would sculpt all his fabled clients into what he calls the Sy Devore All-American Look. Jackets, cut a good inch and a half shorter than the average, have square shoulders and single buttons.

...soloists usually work for less than their concert fee. Last spring Pianist Eugene Istomin volunteered a free month of his time for a four-nation tour that was among the year's most successful.
