...members of the family assembled at the site for a formal, unannounced ceremony. Jacqueline Kennedy arrived clutching a bouquet of lilies of the valley. Lyndon Johnson, invited by Bobby and Jacqueline Kennedy, shared his outsized umbrella with Bobby in the chill, driving rain. Once again, Cushing's unforgettable nasal, New England accent broke the stillness at Arlington Cemetery: "Be at peace, dear Jack, with your tiny infants by your side, until we all meet again above this hill and beyond the stars...

Bass Tom Weber, while rather dry-sounding and somewhat strained, made the most of Leporello's varied moods and tasks, though perhaps not with the same hilarity of his Don Alfonso (of last year's Cori).
