...chalk players, however, think the post will go to either. Far more likely is someone like Muti (whose festival poster had him clad in a black leather jacket, a la Karajan in his race-car days), or James Levine, who is cutting back his administrative duties at the Metropolitan Opera to expand his repertory. Certainly Levine's reputation has flourished in Salzburg in recent years. This season he is supervising an elegant The Marriage of Figaro, in substantially the same staging as Director Jean-Pierre Ponnelle's New York and Paris versions, and a daring new production of Arnold Schoenberg...

The Beatles might have made Britain swinging for the young, but Bond was a travel-poster boy for the earmuff brigade.

Andrew Wyeth might summer there. Bob Newhart could run the colonial inn. Eastwick -- it looks like a travel poster for the New England dream. It surely boasts a trio of dream girls: Alexandra (Cher), who sculpts clay Earth Mothers; Jane (Susan Sarandon), who cues the school band with a hearty "Horns up!"; and Sukie (Michelle Pfeiffer), abustle with her six kids. All are displaced, not quite fulfilled by their evenings together swapping naughty secrets. And when this comely sorority is restless, Eastwick suffers, with plagues of sudden storms and cherry pits. The women are witches, you see. And now they...
