However, the Bears have been somewhat shakier at stopping their opponents' shots, allowing almost four goals per game. Brown features a trio of netminders, each of whom has started at least one game. Senior Mike Parsons (88 save percentage, 3.53 goals against average) has started four games, sophomore Jeff Holowaty (89 percent, 3.86) three and junior Brian Audette (83 percent...
Master Class has Caldwell playing Maria Callas not as singer but as instructor, imperiously advising--when she can stop talking about herself--a trio of aspiring opera stars. Although her own days onstage are over, she remains the most famous Greek woman in the world, and she has the most famous Greek man, Aristotle Onassis, for her lover--or had him, until his eye veered to President Kennedy's widow. At times, McNally arranges for the classroom to dissolve away and for Callas to address us in private monologue, revealing a tremulous woman whose fame provides some compensation...
DIED. MAXENE ANDREWS, 79, singer; in Hyannis, Massachusetts. Reduce World War II to three voices, and the choices are obvious: the rant of Hitler, the rumble of Churchill . and the single, seamless sound blended from the warble of the Andrews Sisters: Maxene, Patti and LaVerne.

The heavens are dark; the light is supernal; and the unlikely trio brings a pair of provocative messages. One: the old order is doomed; everything we live by is destined to go smash. Two: things are going to be all right...
...across the U.S. finds the once and future enfant terrible at the top of his form and, perhaps, the peak of his career. In addition to performing live concerts in seven cities, Jarrett, 50, is simultaneously releasing a six-CD set, Keith Jarrett at the Blue Note, featuring his trio's nuanced performances of jazz standards. His "classical" repertoire, moreover, encompasses music from Bach to Bartok; last summer he performed a Mozart piano concerto with the Boston Symphony, and he has just released a disc of suites for keyboard by Handel. Always a difficult composer to pigeonhole--he is scornful...
