7: The Galante Orchestra
The radical change of style that occurred between the era of Bach and Handel and that of Haydn and Mozart was due in no small measure to the composers who wrote for the Elector of Mannheim's orchestra. Moreover, publication of these Mannheim composers' works helped to make the constitution of the Elector's orchestra the standard model.

Haydn and Mozart
by John Henry Faulk
In 1956, John Henry Faulk was a popular performer on American radio and TV. After allegations had been made about his political views by a right-wing organisation, he found himself blacklisted by the entire radio industry. He instituted proceedings to clear his name and after a legal battle lasting six years was awarded a record sum in damages. His tight did much to expose the evils of the black-list in the American entertainment business.
