...script is mainly by St. Luke, the pictures by the greatest hands of the High Renaissance, and the result is one television show that will probably be run and rerun-in churches, schools, art courses, and over the air. Scheduled for this week (Wednesday, Dec. 21), The Coming of Christ is the latest in NBC's superb Project Twenty series, uses the same technique of still photographs and quiet narration that made television masterpieces of 1959's Meet Mr. Lincoln and last April's Mark Twain's America...

Hindemith, a first-rate conductor, gave them all performances that Die Welt's critic found "almost overpoweringly impressive." Hindemith's own work, musical settings to four long passages from the books of Matthew and Luke in Latin, evoked several strikingly different moods: the first and fourth motets were highly dramatic and rhythmically complicated; the second had the lyric simplicity of folk song, while the third was reminiscent of an Arab mourning song.
