Earthquakes, floods and fugitive diseases are, at any rate, random evidence that the earth itself is mysteriously and sometimes wildly alive. That somehow added to the metaphysical fascination of watching the Americans' Viking lander scratch around in the rusty Martian soil to see if that world, too, had been visited by the secret force...

The cantata itself is based on an actual incident--a friend is leaving Germany for his native Italy, and Bach wants to wish him well, despite the sadness in parting.

Yet David Rockefeller is at least partly to blame for the bank's problems. Since the bank has historically been known as the Rockefellers', David was destined for the top job ever since he joined...
