ORNETTE COLEMAN'S At the Golden Circle, Stockholm, Vol. 1 (Blue Note) is his first recording in three years, and shows the happy effects of his welcome in Sweden as a cultural force-the Willem de Kooning of jazz. Coleman has been such a successful musical iconoclast that his music no longer sounds far "outside," although his alto sax still skips and dips in a blithe, wild way. Here, it occasionally turns into a little tune and then suddenly wrenches free again. His string bass player, David Izenzon, provides a wonderfully eerie foggy bottom in Dawn...

The practice of giving business gifts at Christmas is growing 10% a year in Finland; in Stockholm, a dozen firms now specialize in gifts for Swedish businessmen...
When not brooding over his chilly theologies on film, Swedish Director (The Silence) Ingmar Bergman, 47, has spent the past two winters fussing with a lot of undramatic details as director and chief administrator of Stockholm's Royal Dramatic Theater. His name alone would have kept the distinguished house sold out for many more seasons, but last week Bergman reported that running the theater is "beginning to use up too much of my artistic capital." Beginning next July, he will spend all the capital on movies...
