Of particular interest are the observations of Henry Mancini, who was staff arranger for the post-war Glenn Miller band fronted by Tex Be- neke for the Miller estate, and Jimmy Stewart, who starred in The Glenn Miller Story. John Lissner hosted a big-band radio show on New York City's WPIX-FM from 1961 to 1966, and has written about his favorite art form in The New York Times, The Village Voice and other publications.

VIDEO JUNE 1994 sets in 1939 or the commercialization of color TV in 1954. But we're really talking about widescreen TV sets, a dramatic refinement of the squarer TVs we all grew up watching. Introduced about a year ago, widescreen TVs are more than curiosities, but far from commonplace. Nevertheless, they\u2019re multiplying rapidly. We counted 22 models of direct-view and rear-projection sets covering Il brands and two wide aspect ratios, and expect to see more widescreen sets fairly soon. For example. Hitachi may enter the arena this summer with a 40-inch rear-projection set only 16 inches deep. The sets are costly, but come packed with high-end features like second tuners, spare remotes, adjustable color temperature, and a variety of image manipulation modes, some not available in conventional sets. The image areas range in size from 30 to 58 inches, diagonally. If widescreen whets your appetite, there\u2019s a lot to choose from. TV\u2019s original 4:3 aspect ratio was modeled after the so-called 1.33:1 Academy Aperture ratio that was standard for film projection as late as the early 1950s. The new 16:9 widescreen TVs again take their cue from the movies, mimicking the panoramic screen formats directors first seized on in 1953 to stave off the threat of television. Today, set makers proclaim, widescreen sets will let us watch movies at home with the images directors intended, and without sacrificing screen space to the horizontal bands of a letterboxed laserdisc. We can avoid the drawbacks of pan-and-scan transfers that drain the drama from so many scenes, turning the three-team chariot race in Ben Hur, for example, into a solo dash. And we can do without the boxy reshaping of \u201cfull frame\u201d dubs that inadvertently reveal more than directors ever meant to show. The first generation of widescreen TVs also boast sound quality not of- ten found in TVs. Many models build in Dolby Pro-Logic surround decod- ing, multiple channel amplifiers and speaker systems, plus output jacks for external speakers. On some models the internal drivers can be used as the","ps SSs> e\u00e9e\u00e9 f$\u20ac \u00bbF FF\u00a3\u20acSS$SFEFEg&SAewFEeFXSS$RssXSE\u00a7PeFSEs\u00a3SFE&EEEFfSoe\u00a5FSS\u00a3F5=ESS\u00a7\u00a5F_FESEFES~SSf\u00e9FsHE&sSSSE\u20acSSEEfEFEFSS$LS\u00a2 Ss\u00a2 $B$SS $SsFY yFE 3EF e e e e ea ee e ee e e e e e e JVC NV-55BX4 $4,500 16:9 RP. =-55) 800\/01) YN StS Sie On Arie Vale = 4\/0 \u2014.

Then, still looking through the blue filter (tricky isn\u2019t it?), adjust the hue or tint control until the cyan (light blue) and purple color bars match in level. Repeat the procedure to ensure that your settings didn\u2019t drift. Try watching one of your favorite movies on tape or disc before calibrating your monitor, and pay specific attention to very bright and very dark scenes. Af- ter calibrating the set, go back to the movie and check those bright and dark scenes. In the bright scenes you should notice significantly less picture noise. In the dark scenes you should see more de- tail, and you may even notice things that weren\u2019t in the picture before you adjusted the set! Colors will appear more realistic. In short, you are now looking at a more accurate picture. While writing this article, I cali- brated my old Sony XBR for the first time in at least six months, and while most of the video controls hadn\u2019t drifted significantly, I achieved at least a 25 per- cent better picture when all was said and done.
