...Helms with the awed coverage that inflates a politician's ego and image. But the fearsome scion of the New Right has actually proved a far less effective legislator than is commonly assumed. More prudent colleagues from both sides of the aisles have so far blocked his crusade to mold the constitution to his vision of a God-fearing country. His initiative on prayer and abortion have faltered, and the sweeping anti-busing bill he pushed through the Senate has not received a friendly welcome in the House...

Under Karajan's fiercely perfectionist leadership, the Berlin has been refined into an infinitely supple, responsive ensemble. At first cast in the uncompromising mold of Toscanini, Karajan, 74, drilled his orchestra until its virtuosity was unquestioned. Later Karajan moved toward Furtwangler's ideal of fluidity, and his music making took on a greater spaciousness. In works from Beethoven through Mahler, Karajan knows few peers, and no superiors.
