Summary:[Boris Ivanovich Kulikov], rector of the Moscow State Conservatory, paused last Friday in his headlong flight across musical America to talk about Soviet-American relationships. He is for them. Mr. Kulikov commented briefly on the sleet and wind (''Moscow weather,'' he said) then launched enthusiastically into pending projects for exchanges between the two countries. Under the auspices of the United States Information Agency, the Russian pianist, conductor and educator has spent most of the last month touching down at such musical bases as the Curtis Institute in Philadelphia, the Peabody Institute in Baltimore and Indiana University in Bloomington. He is surprised only at how few surprises these institutes of musical education have presented him. He is, in other words, convinced that the two cultures are close in both aim and practice.
