J. R. Pole, Reader in American History and Government at the University of Cambridge, and Vice-Master of Churchill College, examines the judicial campaign as an American way of fighting issues through the courts instead of using elections and legislatures to attain political aims. The campaign in the courts in turn becomes an appeal to public opinion with the aim of influencing the judge's decision. Developed almost exclusively in the United States, it remains as yet unknown in this country. But that state of innocence, suggests Dr Pole, could be about to change. followed by an interlude

Hans Keller 's wordless method of analysis is designed to show how contrasting themes, rhythms, harmonies and movements hang together: the unity of all contrasts is thrown into relief by way of an analytic score that is linked with the complete movements of the work.
Part 1: Analytic introduction - first movement - analytic interlude - minuet - analytic postlude
Part II: Analytic prelude-slow movement - analytic interlude -finale, interrupted (before the allegro) by a short analytic cadenza - analytic epilogue
The attachment of stylistic labels to particular artists in popular music can be as misleading as it is useful - and Derek Jewell illustrates the point with the latest work of STEPHANE GRAPPELLI, LINDA RON -STADT, JOE COCKER , and the remarkable Czech-born composer and bassist MIROSLAV VITOUS.
