...here, and it is unlikely that anyone could be more eloquent. He does not set the Dies Irae ablaze as Toscanini did, but his performance has a steady incandescence. Honors also go to London's Philharmonia Orchestra, its huge chorus, and the four soloists, Soprano Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, Tenor Nicolai Gedda, Bass Nicolai Ghiaurov, and the especially lustrous Mezzo-Soprano Christa Ludwig...

...Mimi, which she has sung at La Scala, Mirella Freni, 29, an Italian lyric soprano of talent and beauty, can hold her own with Tebaldi, De los Angeles and Moffo. Her voice is easy and focused, but her particular strength as the little seamstress is her touching youthfulness. Tenor Ni colai Gedda is equally melodious and moving as her lover. Thomas Schippers conducts the Rome Opera House Orches tra and Chorus impetuously but artfully...

What difference does it make if she's black, white, purple or green?" Fledgling Director Larry Peerce (son of Tenor Jan Peerce) too often stages the action with operatic solemnity, and an insistent musical score stresses points already made. For all its sincerity, One Potato, Two Potato is an effusive message film with more heart than art, more timeliness than truth...
