...Daria was onstage looking like a monk because she was dressed like a monk, and about fifty other girls surrounded her dressed like monks and witches and jesters and knights, and some were even dressed like girls. Down in the pit there were more girls, playing piano, flute and trumpet. Off in a corner, hiding behind a bass and a drum set, were the two lone boys in the production, vastly outnumbered and probably terrified. The Wellesley Junior Show, a combination of a female Hasty Pudding show and a summer camp skit, was going strong...
Grandes Domes & Cops. Two days later Jackie made a gala appearance in Boston as honorary chairman of the Golden Trumpet Ball, a $150-a-ticket benefit for the Boston Symphony Orchestra. It was her first such acceptance in two years, and Boston's newspapers had splashed all over Page One the specifics of her arrival. When her car pulled up at Symphony Hall, thousands of shouting, shoving people packed the sidewalk. Mounted policemen desperately maneuvered their horses to hold back the crowd. Looking slightly frightened, Jackie hurried inside, while cops used sheer force to keep the excited mob from...
ADOLF SCHERBAUM (Deutsche Grammophon) is the world's foremost master of the baroque trumpet, an instrument without valves (which were not added until the 19th century).

...become as much a part of vacation nostalgia as the unvisited museum or the unclaimed laundry. The catchall bookshelf in a rented summer cottage, once the hallowed repository of mildewed National Geographies and Mary Roberts Rinehart, now often runs to Pasternak and Proust, to Galbraith and Gideon's Trumpet. Even in the remotest fishing village, the drugstore often offers a conscience-pricking range of paperback titles. Inevitably, as he scoops up Louis Fischer's Life of Lenin, Camus' The Plague, George Orwell's Essays, and four Ian Flemings for insurance, the vacationer is torn between dreams...
