Darius Milhaud's Symphonic No, I pour Petite Orchestre, ("Le Princemps"), the program's second work, hardly deserves to be called a symphony. Its three movements last barely three minutes in all, and the Orchestre is limited to nine players (string quartet, harp, and four winds).

Figures late Wednesday night showed that Kennedy's lead had dropped to approximately 320,000 out of more than 65 million votes...

It was good to hear this "Impressionist" masterpiece treated with a clear-headed approach that brought out the work's structural solidity. This was not the fog-bound Debussy, but rather the Cartesian Debussy. The essentially rationalist reading was handled excellently by Senturia's charges...
