MOZART: PIANO CONCERTOS VOL. 1 (3 LPs; Epic). The Hungarian-born Mozart specialist Lili Kraus plans to record all the piano concertos, Mozart's crowning achievements in instrumental music. She has begun with Nos. 12, 18, 20, 23, 24 and 26, all written after Mozart, renowned as Austria's greatest pianist, moved to Vienna. His playing was famed for its singing touch and exquisite taste.

In Budapest, where "it's easier to get an abortion than to cure a toothache," services-hungry city dwellers have dragged the birth rate down to a level that, if continued, could lead to a population loss by the end of the century.
