HEIFETZ-PIATIGORSKY CONCERTS: DVORAK'S PIANO QUINTETTE IN A, and FRANÇAIX: STRING TRIO (RCA Victor). Piatigorsky's full-throated cello conducts a civilized but passionate conversation with the violins of Heifetz, Israel Baker and Joseph de Pasquale and Jacob Lateiner's piano. In fact, all five musicians have a meticulous sympathy for Dvorak's buoyant chamber work, which is permeated by Czech folk music, or dumka ("little thought"), the unpretentious but satisfying Slavic themes that delighted Dvorak. The Françaix String Trio, on the other side, has little to offer but excellent musicians...
...nation that once ruled the road, Germany has taken few top honors recently. Its last triumph in the 24 Hours of Le Mans came way back in 1952, and no German car has won a Grand Prix race for half a dozen years. But in Florida last week a trio of long-tailed Porsche 907 prototypes put on a performance that suggested this year may be Deutschland über Alles once again.

...Mice and Men. But what were they thinking about when they signed Britain's classical actor Nicol Williamson to play Lennie, the hulking, simple-minded American farm hand? That seemed a little like casting David Niven as Quasimodo. Well, in short, Williamson was an extraordinary Lennie. Of the trio of Britons who dominated the tube last week, his performance was the most remarkable. Bug-eyed and slackjawed, gangly and gawky, stammering and shuffling, he gave touching insight to his credo, "I got you and you got me." George Segal as George and Will Geer as Candy gave Williamson first...
