...mood of frustration, established early in the contest, came back to stifle Harvard's bid for a comeback, a picture-perfect Mike Watson-to-John Cochrane give-and-to late in the third period ending up with Cochrane unable to get off the shot from in front of the Brown...
...PROBLEMS of imbalance were troublesome in Ravel, they were considerably more serious in the performance of Beethoven's Eighth Symphony which ended the program. The work offers a rare chance to hear the mature Beethoven in a congenial mood, and has a great deal of intrinsic charm; the composer showed good taste in preferring it to the more popular Seventh. But despite the clean and robust tone of the strings and some fine lyrical playing from the woodwinds, problems of balance so marred the performance that it can neither be called satisfying, nor even very charming.

Different as they are in story, mood and style, these films are linked by overriding similarities. First, and most basic, all are products of Australia's film community, probably the world's fastest-growing (75 features in the past eight years), and the work of a relatively youthful group of Australian film makers who are breathing new life into a once nearly moribund movie industry.

There's Cat Stevens for those mellow, I-might-be-depressed-soon times, and there's the Stones and Geils for the other times, but Pronto Monto falls somewhere in the middle. You have to listen to this album, because the emotional and musical jumps reach out and grab your attention. A year older, Kate and Anna talk of new loves, but their music moves just...
