Chimpanzee Cheesecake Your friends will go ape over this one. The flavor of bananas is subtle but pervasive. If you want a more pronounced banana taste, you'll have to monkey with the recipe a bit: Eliminate the sour cream and/or top the cake with a layer of sliced bananas.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. 2. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, sugar, and lemon juice. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition. 3. Stir in the sour cream and the mashed bananas and blend well. 4. Pour the mixture into the prepared crust and bake for 1 hour. Cool in the oven, with the door propped open, until the cake is at room temperature. Chill. Cider Cheesecake What could be better than apple pie and a wedge of cheese?

Preheat the oven to 275 degrees. 2. Melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler. 3.

Turn off the heat and allow the cake to cool in the oven. Chill. Low-Calorie Cheesecake By our calculations, there are about 1,900 calories in this cheesecake, so if you cut it in ten pieces, it's only 190 calories per delectable slice. More corners could have been cut (like no cream cheese) but at a sacrifice of satisfaction (and we all know that means bigger slices taken or two slices polished off when one would do). If you dust the pan with crumbs after greasing with margarine you can avoid the better part of 600 calories in the crust. Recommendations: Low-calorie crust 9-inch springform pan Ingredients: 2 cups (1 pound) low-fat cottage cheese Y2 pound low-fat cream cheese 3 tablespoons skim milk 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 large egg yolk, lightly beaten 3 large egg whites Y. cup granulated sugar 1. Preheat the oven to 275 degrees. 2. Press the cottage cheese through a sieve and drain. 3. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the cottage cheese, cream cheese, milk, vanilla, and egg yolk until smooth and light. 4. Beat the egg whites slowly, adding the sugar gradually until the whites form stiff peaks. Fold the whites into the cheese mixture. S. Pour the mixture into the prepared crust and bake for 1 hour. Turn off the heat and leave the cake in the oven for another hour. Chill. Pumpkin Cheesecake This one puts ordinary cheesecake to shame. Served hot or just warmed, it's much like pumpkin pie, but much richer. Served cold, it's an unusual and delicious cheesecake. The cake will easily serve twenty people (or even thirty after a heavy Thanksgiving dinner), so for once you can have your cake and eat it too-serve it warm the first time around and enjoy the leftovers cold.

Rochester inReview Eastman in Germany That's no stage set behind the Eastman Philharmonia here; that castle in the background is the real thing. The picture was taken during the Philharmonia's six weeks in Germany last summer as orchestra-inresidence at the Heidelberg Castle Festival. The Philharmonia was the first choice of festival officials after a representative visited several major music schools in the United States last year. And after a series of performances under conductor David Effron that inspired one German newspaper to describe the group as the festival's stellar attraction, the orchestra-made up of the Eastman School's finest student talent-was invited to return to Heidelberg next summer. "The real star of this year's Castle Festival is the young Eastman Philharmonia, an orchestra that has great competence, can master any kind of technical difficulty, and personifies freshness and joy in its playing," wrote a critic for the Rhein Neckar-Zeitung. "Anyone who heard The Merry Wives of Windsor, The Student Prince, or Gazzaniga's Don Giovanni knows how extraordinary the orchestra that came to Heidelberg is. Take the precision of the Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra, the talent of the Young German Philharmonic and some of the temperament of I Musici, and you have about the right order of magnitude for the Eastman Philharmonia. " Triple play Imagine a major symphonic work that combines the talents of a Pulitzer Prize-winning composer, a worldfamous civil rights leader, and a major-league first baseman. Well, you won't have to rely solely on your imagination for long; in about two more years you will probably be able -- - - ------- to buy the record. The Eastman School of Music has commissioned just such a work, based on the writings of Martin Luther King, Jr., narrated by the Pittsburgh Pirates' Willie Stargell, and written by Joseph Schwantner, a member of Eastman's composition faculty who won the Pulitzer in 1979 for his Aftertones of Infinity. Eastman School director Robert Freeman, who arranged the project, expects the work to be premiered in 1983 at the Kennedy Center in Washington, with subsequent performances in New York City and at the Eastman School. It will be performed, naturally, by the school's crack student orchestra, the Eastman Philharmonia. The idea of commissioning a work based on texts by King arose from a benefit concert given last spring by bass-baritone William Warfield '42E for the benefit of the school's William Warfield Scholarship Fund for voice students. Warfield has agreed to assist Stargell in preparation of his narration. Twenty years with the Pirates, Stargell is president of the Stargell Foundation, a fund working in behalf of research in sickle-cell anemia. "Perhaps Mr. Stargell's sincere interest in music will attract more baseball fans to the concert hall-and, perhaps, more concertgoers to the baseball stadium," says Freeman, who is frequently to be found in the baseball stadium himself.
