...final work, Piano Sonata No. 2 in E-flat by Allan Sapp, was played by the composer. The movements are: Larghetto, Allegro Molto, Andantino, and Allegro. This is an intensity about it that commands attention. Something is being said that is worth listening to, particularly in the faster movements, where brilliant figurations and subtle rhythms sustain a motion that has few lapses. The slower sections are less interesting, the Larghetto being the least successful of the movements. The Andantino, quiet and comparatively consonant, is sometimes a little too sweet and sometimes a bit irrelevant. On the whole, though, the Sonata...
...Harvard and Radcliffe freshman choruses. Titled by Haydn a Mass in D-Minor, it is nevertheless drawn more often than not, like Bach's B-Minor Mass, into the happy and festive key of D-Major.

...Alfred Hayes, vice president of New York Trust Co., Manhattan's tenth largest bank, was elected to succeed Allan Sproul, 60, as president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, largest and most important unit in the nation's twelve-district Reserve system. Sproul, president of the New York "Fed" for 15 years, became known as the most powerful of the regional chiefs and a frequent dissenter from the Washington Board's policy. He resigned because of health (stomach ulcer). Successor Hayes, who calls himself "deplorably obscure," is described by his banker peers as brilliant...
