I, for one, am highly impatient with the reactionary thinking of some union leaders . . . who are generally wedded to the mean and miserly concept of a mature economy that...
After one year of conducting the Harvard-Radcliffe Orchestra, Attilio Poto can be given the credit for its solid improvement. Faced with the problem of an orchestra divided between hard workers and people who just enjoy playing their instruments once or twice a week, Poto has installed an enthusiasm and an interest which the orchestra lacked for some years...
