...they have billed themselves since they began their extensive appearances throughout the Brahms B major Trio, Op. 8, as a pre-concert prelude. The work was drastically revised by the mature Brahms, and despite its early opus number, its introspective intensity makes it an extraordinarily difficult work to interpret. But Chang, Kogan, and Ma (upon whom the trio now seems to be less visibly dependent for direction whirled through the work with abandon and brilliance. If anything, the second movement scherzo crept to the edge of brittleness; yet the sustained, almost religious adagio which followed was lyrically breathtaking...
...says a top Republican strategist about what Gerald Ford would-and would not-do if he is elected. Since Ford has portrayed himself throughout the campaign as the champion of limited Government, he would interpret a victory as proof that the people want Washington to play a diminished role in their lives, and he would surely be emboldened to fight even harder for his policies of restraint...
...color of the murals is part of the vocabulary used to interpret the action. (Not capture it, as in a photograph, but interpret it, as in calligraphy.)

On the platform were two ever present reminders of tantric practice: a statue of Kay-Dor, a ferocious manifestation of the Buddha, and an elaborate mandala, a ritual design used in invocations, made out of ground precious stones and sand...
Military and civilian courts immediately began applying the amnesty, and by week's end some 100 prisoners had been freed. How many more will win release depends on how individual judges interpret the decree's terms. The amnesty is considerably broader than a limited pardon granted by Juan Carlos last December, when more than 600 political prisoners and thousands of common criminals were set free (although their convictions remain on the record). By specifically excluding people convicted of violent crimes, the amnesty fails to benefit some 200 prisoners, most of them Basques, who were jailed under last year...
