Something Special. One Russian asked if he could examine the instruments, as if there might be something special about them. The Russians were swept away by the Philadelphia's sheer lush quality, while the Americans, who scheduled twelve jumbo-sized concerts in 13 days, were nearly swept away by the effort of putting them on night after night. Ahead lay four more performances in Leningrad before the Philadelphia moved on to Scandinavia, Poland and Western Europe, winding up its 14-nation tour next month at the Brussels World's Fair...
...with the man who later became Husband No. 2, a "tennis bum" who refused to work for fear he might "use the wrong muscles," and who took sadistic pleasure in driving tennis balls at Diana's face. Husband No. 3 was almost as big a lush as Diana, and together they rapidly drank up all the money she had made and inherited.

Garden, with lush, languid music by Carlos Surinach, was a kind of lovelorn-columnist's tour of Eden, with Adam, Eve, Adams's legendary wife Lilith and a hor mone-happy stranger as the disturbed protagonists. In style it was light but pricked with wryly ironic wit. Clytemnestra, with a grindingly dissonant score by Egyptian Composer Halim El-Dabh, was a more impressive work and far more complex. Both its power and its tortuous complexities derived from Choreographer Graham's technique of unfolding the story as a memory of past events sounding shrilly in the echo chamber...
