Enesco

“My programs for the Philly Pops may open with ‘Die Meistersinger,’ then ‘Chariots of Fire,’ then Enesco’s Rumanian Rhapsodies, then a television theme,” Nero told The New York Times in 1982.

The second program tilts toward Central Europe, with works by Johann Strauss II, Enesco and Lehar.

The Roumanians have come to the fore in Enesco, who has written several characteristic works for orchestra.

Enesco's is, perhaps, the better of the two.

The waiters at Enesco's and Jordachi's are intelligible in German and Roumanian; at the Continental, and especially at Capsa's, they are mostly French.
