...suspected that some conductors studied under ballet masters, Yamash'ta's debt to the dance world is legitimate. A musical prodigy who took up drumming at the age of twelve, he became timpanist with the Kyoto and Osaka orchestras two years later, studying ballet on the side. Soon after, Director Akira Kurosawa picked him to perform the score for the movie Yojimbo, and at 16 he made his first solo appearance, playing Milhaud's Percussion Concerto with the Osaka Philharmonic. He traveled to the U.S. in 1964 and won a scholarship to the Interlochen Arts Academy...

...exceptions, Hadrian's plan worked perfectly. Like U.S. forces on search-and-destroy missions in Viet Nam, Roman cavalry patrols regularly harried the forested valleys and bare fells rising to the Scottish border. Caledones creeping through the furze or wheeling down on the moors in small war chariots soon learned the bloody lesson that the sector in front of the wall was as Roman as anything behind it. So manned, however, the wall was expensive. Divine estimates that no fewer than 35,000 troops, 63% of the entire garrison force of Roman Britain, were tied up along...
