...Gelmetti would bring to the technically assured SSO. With his arrival at the orchestra, Rome would seem to come to Sydney, as the Verdi Requiem marketing goes. "He was born in Rome" - to a businessman father and poetess mother - "and he's deeply Roman," Gelmetti's Rome Opera concertmaster Vicenzo Bolognese has said. "Romans can keep the right distance with power - a true Roman can act politically without becoming too involved." As chief conductor since April 2000, Gelmetti has helped revive that city's ailing Opera House, as well as the musical reputations of such early 20th century composers...
...shots start to go a little awry, until, like hope, they disappear entirely into the darkness of the day. "Unrecoverable," say the caddies without irony, over and over. "Unrecoverable." On the moonlit night, the golf-course hotel might be Baskerville Hall. From the center window of the Roberto de Vicenzo suite, the shadow of the course appears to be moving.

His voice was hoarse from chant rehearsal that afternoon. Lori, who was the rowdiest and was just sincere enough to make the rest of us a little uneasy, suggested we burn our I.D.s instead. She looked like a ladybug, the puckish girl sitting on Pater Noster's polished knee, spotted with buttons and stickers from past years. "Some of you younger kids don't know what effect that kind of statement can have...
...this year's Masters Golf Tournament [April 26]. It is inconceivable to me that a person could lose a golf tournament on the mere fact that he didn't relate his score correctly on a little piece of paper. Is there any doubt that Roberto de Vicenzo had the same score as Bob Goalby or that his play merited a playoff round to determine the just winner? This gross injustice is a mockery of sportsmanship...
