...course was the chance inspiration of Psychiatrist Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, 43, born and trained in Switzerland, who joined Chicago's faculty in 1965. She tells the story in a book, On Death and Dying (Macmillan; $6.95). It began with a visit from four Chicago Theological Seminary students who wanted to do a study of life's greatest and final crisis. "When I wanted to know what it was like to be schizophrenic," Dr. Kübler-Ross told her callers, "I spent a lot of time with schizophrenics. Why not do the same thing? We will...
...Palace. The audience tolerated the worst kind of summer weather, and so did the singers. Beverly Sills stood encased in a fabric column as the doll in The Tales of Hoffmann, while the stage temperature registered 160 degrees-later she threw up and nearly collapsed. Elisabeth Schwarzkopf had to be carried to the wings after singing Der Rosenkavalier in a heavy hoop skirt. Cincinnati Zoo history is replete with disputes between singers and kamikaze bats, suicidal moths, unhousebroken monkeys and pigeons that expressed their opinion of performances in the only way available to pigeons...
Claude (Claude Berri) is the little Jewish boy of The Two of Us grown to physical if not emotional maturity. His inamorata Isabelle (Elisabeth Wiener) is with child, but Claude is no hit-and-run villain.

The owner (Laurent Terzieff) looks like the sort of tubercular pervert who might peddle pornographic pictures to schoolchildren, but he gets his kicks from having fun with adults. He ties his girls in chains, photographs them in submissive attitudes, fondles and then bullies them into abject sexual surrender. The whole thing is pretty disgusting, what with the heroine being degraded, her lover becoming murderously outraged, and the dirty...
...KNABEN WUNDERHORN, ELISABETH SCHWARZKOPF, DIETRICH FISCHER-DIESKAU, GEORGE SZELL CONDUCTING THE LONDON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA (Angel). Though not a happy composer, Mahler could be light-hearted when he turned to folk poetry. In these twelve songs-drawn from the German folk anthology The Youth's Magic Horn-he conjures up an impish world of humorous saints, sorrowful drummer boys, cuckoos and nightingales. As one would expect from such a line-up of talent, this version abounds with interpretive delights. It does not, however, outclass Angel's previous recording by Janet Baker, Geraint Evans and Conductor Wyn Morris with...
