...Italian Europeans who will be given consideration. GODFRIED CARDINAL DANEELS, 71, Archbishop of Mechelen-Brussels, Belgium, is an intellectual and a moderate, bordering on being a progressive. He has called for compassion for those who divorce and remarry and has urged a greater role for the laity, including women.

...Christoph Willibald Gluck (1714-1787) was represented by his “Di questa cetra” from Il Parnasi confuso which exhibited Bartoli’s sublime command of mellifluous and seamless tonal transitions and passages that hovered and drifted weightlessly through her listeners, lingering hauntingly in the air. The latter half of the concert was comprised of eleven pieces by Antonio Salieri (1750-1825) drawn from La fiera di Venezia, Armida, La secchia rapita, La finta scema, La scuola de’ gelosi, Palmira, Regina di Persia, and La cifra...
