...plucky Art Aimesworth vs. the Dark Elves in six sprightly windows (with narration by Cindy Crawford, Peter Duchin, Brooke Shields, Dominick Dunne, Martha Stewart and seven others). At Fendi the Christmas trees are as svelte and haughty as the Euro-mannequins. From the windows of the Warner Bros. Studio Store, a behemoth Bugs and three of his Looney Tunes pals gaze fretfully across 57th Street at the Tiffany's display -- cuddly bears in tuxedos, snow gear and seraphim wings...
Capital Cities/ABC, Inc., announced a joint venture with Steven Spielberg, Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen, the powerful Hollywood figures who recently formed their own entertainment conglomerate. The new company, in a deal indicative of the changing relationships between networks and studios, entered a seven-year contract to produce programming for networks, cable services, syndication and other media; ABC, in turn, will invest $100 million in the TV studio, giving it a 50% share in both financing and profits...

The music represents the heart of his repertoire: Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms, Schumann, Schubert, Haydn, Weber, Chopin, Liszt, Scriabin, Prokofiev and Shostakovich. There is probably no better compendium of Richter...
Other musical groups aren't quite as ready to replace human players with machines in the studio, but some are taking advantage of the current multimedia craze to release CD-ROM versions of their recordings.
