Not long before that, I'd read the New York Times piece on Golijov to
which Gene Halaburt drew our attention. It said, in part:
"The 20th century's revolutions were led from Europe and then
the United States; now may come the turn of China, Australia
and Latin America."
I was struck by the coincidence.
