...buskers and the tent circus on the cobblestone plaza of Paris' skeletal-modern Pompidou arts center, there is what looks like a subway entrance marked IRCAM. It leads down, four levels below, to the world's newest, most sophisticated center for musical experiment and composition, officially titled Institut de Recherche et de Coordination Acoustique/Musique. IRCAM is a hushed place that fairly radiates energy and cerebration. Here the ordinateur, as the French call a computer, reigns. In one lab, a group is seeking its aid in constructing a new, futuristic flute. In another, a composer is using...

...time she went off to Paris at 17 to study at the Institut d'Etudes Politiques, Caroline's rebellion was in full swing.

His collection of Dutch and Flemish 17th century drawings-there are now 2,500 of them housed in the Institut Néerlandais in Paris, which he endowed-is definitive. The present show at New York's Morgan Library, entitled "Rembrandt and His Century: Dutch Drawings of the 17th Century" and comprising only 132 items culled from the 2,500, conveys at least an idea of the collection's extraordinary range and quality.
