New opportunities for exploring stellar populations at high spectral resolution with the new generation of very large optical telescopes are reviewed. This summary will discuss papers presented at the Tucson workshop, High Resolution Spectroscopy with Very Large Telescopes, on abundance and kinematic information for relatively cool stars of the field and clusters of our Galaxy and in the Magellanic Clouds.
