...Queen Elizabeth of Belgium Competition (the contest for violinists), Castleman has become a respected professional since his graduation from Harvard in 1964. Recalling his Tchaikovsky Concerto with the HRO, it is pleasing to find that his substantial technique is now wielded with more purpose, that his tone is pure, and effortlessly produced, and that his general style is scrupulous and considered. The "Viennese" sections he performs with broad portameati (slides) which makes sense; so does the fragmentation of certain chords to enhance their force...

Pierre, married for fifteen years to Franca, falls impulsively in love with Nicole, a young air-line stewardess, setting up Truffaut's traditional triangle. His love for her proceeds by starts of pure sexual drive and by stops of convention and respectability. Truffaut, to parallel Pierre, turns on the emotion at the level of characterization and turns it off with a plot of continuous cliches. As Pierre becomes increasingly trapped by his situation, the tension between your sympathy and disgust makes you more and more uncomfortable...
