The Horn Signal is proudly brought to you by Bob Reeves Brass. Join hosts John Snell and Preston Shepard as they interview horn players around the world.  Today's episode features Robert Watt, former Assistant Principal Horn of the Los Angeles Philharmonic.   Robert Lee Watt was born in Neptune, New Jersey the 4th child of seven. His father, Edward Watt Jr. played trumpet professionally in a Jazz ensemble, “The New Jersey Squires of Rhythm.” When Robert was eight years old he got curious about his father's trumpet, kept high on a shelf. Too short to reach it, Robert conscripted his little brother Tony to help. But with Tony on his shoulders he lost his balance, causing both of them to fall to the floor, trumpet in hand.  Robert then attempted to fix the dents in the instrument by using a hammer. The badly damaged trumpet was the way Robert's father discovered his interest in horns. After a serious reproach, Robert's father tried to teach him trumpet. However, it wasn't until years later that Robert discovered the instrument he really wanted to play.    While helping his father clean out a room in the basement Robert discovered some old 78 recordings. The curious Robert gave the old recordings a spin. It was the “William Tell Overture” on hearing the French horns on that recording he asked his father what instrument came in after the trumpet. His father informed him that it was a “French horn” “A middle instrument that never gets to play the melody like the trumpet…why, do you like that horn?” His father asked. Robert replied, “It gives me chills when I hear it, I love it. That's what I want to play.” His father informed the young Robert that it really wasn't the instrument for him. Explaining that it was an instrument for thin-lipped white boys. “Your lips are too thick to play that small, thin, mouthpiece. You'd be better suited for the trumpet like you father.”  Upon reaching high school Robert seriously pursued the French horn. Approaching the band director of his high school in Asbury Park, Robert was again told that his lips were too thick to play the French horn. After being persistent, the band director gave Robert an old French horn that barely worked.  Nevertheless, Robert advanced quickly and was soon winning auditions for honor bands and orchestras throughout the state of New Jersey, bringing great honor to his high school. After high school Robert was accepted to the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston where he majored in music and studied French horn with Harry Shapiro of the Boston Symphony. Mr. Shapiro took great interest in Robert pushing him hard. At the end of his first year Mr. Watt was asked to perform the Strauss Horn Concerto No. 1, with the Boston Pops Orchestra under Arthur Fiedler. The following summer he received a fellowship to the Berkshire Music Festival at Tanglewood. Returning to the Conservatory for his third year Mr. Watt was informed by the president's office that the Conservatory had financial problems and that all scholarships would be canceled for the coming year. At the end of his junior year at the Conservatory Mr. Watt was informed by his French horn teacher that it was time for him to audition for a position in a major symphony orchestra. On the advice of his teacher, Mr. Watt chose Los Angeles and Chicago. When Mr. Watt returned from his audition journey, he had made the finals at both auditions. Two months later The Los Angeles Philharmonic offered him the position of Assistant First Horn. Making him the first African American French horn player hired by a major symphony orchestra in the United States. Mr. Watt joined the ranks of only a handful of African Americans playing in symphony orchestras in these United States. According to the American Symphony Orchestra League, that represented less than 2% of the total, out of twenty-six top orchestras. Mr. Watt held his position until 2007, a career spanning 37 years.  Mr. Watt performed several times as soloist with the Los Angeles Philharmonic under Zubin Mehta and several orchestras in the Los Angeles area as well as the Oakland Symphony performing the Richard Strauss Second Horn Concerto While a member of the Los Angeles Philharmonic Mr. Watt has performed with principal and guest conductors that included: Leonard Bernstein, Eugene Ormandy, Eric Leinsdrof, Carla Maria Giulini, Pierre Boulez, Zubin Mehta, Henry Lewis, James De Priest, Michael Tilson Thomas, Herbert Blumstedt, Andre Previn, Marin Alsop, Esa-Pekka Salonen and Christoph Von Dohnányi. Included among the many world renown artists he has performed with were:     Yo-Yo Ma, Luciano Pavarotti, Placido Domingo, Jose Carreras, Wynton Marsalias, Henry Mancini, Gladys Night, Isaac Hayes, Quincy Jones, Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles, Barry White, Rihanna, Paula Abdul, Herbie Hancock, Lalo Schifrin, The Carpenters, Benny Carter, Quincy Jones, Bon Jovi, Elton John and film composer, John Williams. He has played on film scores of: Spiderman II, Rush Hour, Mission Impossible, Spike Lee's “Miracle at St. Anna, Golf and many others.  Mr. Watt has played the music for the Twentieth Century Fox cartoons, The Simpsons, American Dad, Family Guy and King of the Hill for the past three years. He played on the five hour TV special “The Jacksons, an American Family” under Harold Wheeler, and played for several years for the TV program “Startrek Voyager.” In the late 80's Mr. Watt helped organize an African American Brass Quintet, “The New Brass Ensemble” which performed throughout the United States and abroad.  Mr. Watt has done public speaking lecturing on music and African history in the Los Angeles area. He was hired as guest professor at Los Angele City College teaching the course, “Music of Black Americans”. Recently Mr. Watt executive produced a short film in memory of his friend Miles Davis. The film is based on the musical composition “Missing Miles” by Todd Cochran, commissioned by Mr. Watt, for French horn and piano. The short film was chosen by the Pan African Film Festival and the Garden State Film Festival.  Mr. Watt is a licensed airplane pilot with an instrument rating. He is a saber fencer and he speaks German and Italian.

When John J. Macreedy (Spencer Tracy), a stoic, one-armed stranger, arrives in a remote desert town, his quiet inquiries about a man named Komoko rattle the fragile veneer of its close-knit community. Suspicion and hostility mount as the town's residents, led by the menacing Reno Smith (Robert Ryan), close ranks to protect a dark secret buried beneath the dusty, desolate landscape.Guest:Kieran BHost and Creator of the Best Picture Cast; @bestpicturecast on X, IG, Letterboxd - BPC, Letterboxd - PersonalPrevious Episodes: Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1957), Lost in Translation (2003), Gran Torino (2008), Stalag 17 (1953), Shane (1953), A Fistful of Dollars (1964), The Best Years of Our Lives (1946) Revisit, 12 Angry Men (1957) Revisit, The Shawshank Redemption (1994) Revisit, Saw (2004), Up in the Air (2009)Chapters:00:00 Introduction and Welcome to Kieran02:35 Cast and Recognition for Bad Day at Black Rock04:15 Relationship(s) with Bad Day at Black Rock10:09 What is Bad Day at Black Rock About?14:14 Is Historial Context Needed to Appreciate the Film?22:04 Plot Summary for Bad...

Andre Previn was still in high school when MGM gave him a job in their music department, doing piece work. His first official movie credit came in 1949, and over the next dozen or so years Previn was involved in creating the musical scores for over 50 MGM films. In this 1991 interview discusses his memoir of his 16-year MGM career, No Minor Chords.

El caso Allen vs. Farrow lleva coleando desde 1992, pero cogió un peso especial a partir de 2018, en plena ola del #MeToo. Woody Allen fue acusado de abusar sexualmente de su hija Dylan, sumado a la cuestionable decisión de casarse con Soon-Yi Previn, la hija adoptiva de Mia Farrow. ¿Qué hay de cierto en todo esto? ¿Pedófilo, abusador, o víctima de una enorme campaña de desinformación? Adéntrate conmigo en este episodio de ‘El lado oscuro', quizá el más especial de toda la temporada, con una historia terrible pero cierta acerca de una familia, con víctimas, monstruos y mentiras. Empecemos por el principio…Si quieres ampliar información, te dejo aquí un listado con las películas mencionadas:

Dory Previn said to me in 1986, "I hope that someday you write about my songs and life the kind of  psychosexual study you did of Sinatra's work." We made tapes, starting that year, and recorded up to 2000, with this in mind or me writing a one-woman show about her. Now, my hopes are set more on me and someone who is equally passionate about Dory, making a film.  Here she talks about the background of her songs Theme from Valley of the Dolls,  Leomon Haired Ladies and Beware of Young Girlks. The latter two were directed at Mia Farrow.    Tapes copyright: Joe Jackson, not to be used commercially without my permission in writing. 

Today, I had the pleasure of sitting down for a chat with Maestro Urs Leonhardt Steiner, a musical maestro whose journey spans continents and cultures. Originally from the quaint town of Chur, Switzerland, Steiner's musical roots run deep, having studied at esteemed institutions like the University of Tübingen and the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. Under the guidance of luminaries such as James Wimer and Gustav Meier, and rubbing shoulders with legends like Andre Previn and Leonard Bernstein in masterclasses, Steiner's musical education is as rich as it is diverse. But it doesn't stop there. Steiner's own compositions, notably the operas “Il Secondo Settenio” and “Return of the Phantoms,” have garnered praise both at home and across the pond. Leading the Golden Gate Symphony Orchestra in captivating performances, Steiner's baton has danced across stages from Europe to Central America.

Meet Morecambe and Wise -- that's Eric Morecambe and Ernie Wise -- who formed one of Britain's most illustrious and best-loved double-acts of all time. From beginnings in post-WWII Great Britain the lads soon found a home first on radio, then with television series and specials that spanned 20 years. And, for many of those years, they produced Britain's most watched Christmas special -- a real tradition. Morecambe and Wise were versatile, with both men capable of song and dance as well as either the comic or straight man role. That versatility made them a huge influence on future British comics including Ben Elton and Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie. Not bad for a couple of song and dance men who just wanted to make people laugh. As always find extra cuts below and thanks for sharing our shows! Want more Morecambe and Wise? Morecambe and Wise had oodles of chemistry -- perfect for two guys who could flex between the comic and straight man parts with ease. Here is some typical banter with Shakespeare the focus. https://youtu.be/WMXz2SCqtfg?si=rMO19GXNPcWZD__6 As one of Britain's top variety shows, Morecambe and Wise were the place to be for pop stars including a man who was the biggest of all back in the early 1970s -- Tom Jones! -- who shows a bit of comedic flair himself. https://youtu.be/e66z6nnWKq0?si=Siv0_Hkb0kiPECpT One of Morecambe and Wise's secrets was the quality of their scripts, mostly written by Eddie Braben who also was the pen behind David Frost and Ronnie Corbett. It allowed them to draw top-notch guest stars including Andre Previn, here helping the boys with a classical music bit (taken from the 1971 M&W Christmas Special). https://youtu.be/R7GeKLE0x3s?si=sBr-gYcqixGc1l8j

Film composers were starting to take over the duties of writing the music for movie songs in the 1960s, and that was evident in the list of Oscar-nominated songs from that year. Four of the five songs contain music by score composers instead of trained songwriters, which signaled the likely end of an era for the Hollywood songwriter. Sammy Fain was the only traditional song composer of the bunch, writing a song that competed with those written by Henry Mancini, Elmer Berstein, Bronislau Kaper, and Andre Previn. Who took home the Original Song Oscar statuette that year? Host Jeff Commings will tell you on this episode!

Synopsis In Beethoven's day, there were no independent symphonic orchestras in Vienna, so when Ludwig van wanted to put on an orchestral concert, the way he did it was to hire a theater orchestra for a night or two.  Now, Viennese theaters were usually pretty busy and well booked up, but in Catholic Austria, they would shut down for a few weeks each year during Lent, which explains why a number of Beethoven's symphonies premiered in April when the orchestras were available for hire. It wasn't until today's date in 1842 that Vienna's most famous independent orchestra played its first concert, and even then, as it still does today, the Vienna Philharmonic also doubles as the orchestra of the Vienna Opera. The German composer and conductor, Otto Nicolai, led that first concert of the Vienna Philharmonic.  The program included Beethoven's Seventh Symphony and, not surprisingly, Beethoven remains core repertory for the Vienna Philharmonic, along with those other two Viennese “B's” – Brahms and Bruckner.  But in the 20th century, the Austrian orchestra presented important European premieres of works by Samuel Barber and Leonard Bernstein, two notable American “B's.”  And more recently, the Vienna Philharmonic premiered Diversions” by the German-born, American composer and conductor, Andre Previn.

Synopsis On today's date in 1948, Leonard Bernstein, age 29, conducted the Boston Symphony in the premiere of a new orchestral work by Harold Shapero, age 27. This was Shapero's “Symphony for Classical Orchestra,” a work modeled on Beethoven but sounding very much like one of the Neo-Classical scores of Igor Stravinsky. This was exactly what Shapero intended, but some found the music perplexing. Aaron Copland, for one, wrote: “Harold Shapero, it is safe to say, is at the same time the most gifted and baffling composer of his generation.” That comment by Copland, one should remember, came at a time when Shapero's generation included the likes of Barber, Bernstein, Menotti and Rorem. But Copland continued, “Stylistically, Shapero seems to feel a compulsion to fashion his music after some great model. He seems to be suffering from a hero-worship complex – or perhaps it is a freakish attack of false modesty.” “Copland was so original,” Shapero responded, “that he just couldn't understand anyone who wasn't.” Even so, Shapero's superbly crafted orchestral imitations suffered many decades of neglect. In the 1980s, however, conductor and composer Andre Previn fell in love with Shapero's Symphony, performing and recording it with the LA Philharmonic, and declared its Adagietto movement the most beautiful slow movement of any American symphony.

Andre Previn had a long and varied career  Simon and Nick discuss his life and work in the diverse fields of jazz, film and classical music. 

Thank Heaven for this 1958 masterpiece, with a score for the ages by Lerner and Loewe. Performances from the film, outtakes, and various pop and stage renditions (Vic Damone, Andre Previn).  You'll remember it well!

Andre Previn (born Andreas Ludwig Priwin) was a German-American pianist, composer, and conductor popular in three major genres; Hollywood, Jazz, and classical music.

Synopsis On today's date in 2001, during the Lucerne Festival in Switzerland, the German violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter premiered a new chamber work for violin and piano titled “Tango, Song and Dance.” She had commissioned the work from Andre Previn several years earlier, but its premiere was delayed as Mutter embarked on a project to perform and record all Beethoven's Violin Sonatas. “After doing all those stern [Beethoven] recitals,” said Mutter, “I wanted to play pieces which reflected the basis of musical history, the folksongs and dances which has inspired composers through so many centuries. ‘Tango, Song and Dance' is both modern and old-fashioned, and it touches the heart, especially the slow movement, which is really a ‘Song Without Words'.” And that wasn't the only thing to touch her heart. It was around this time that Previn and Mutter became husband and wife. For his part, Andre said, “I have one piece of advice to composers for the violin – make sure Anne-Sophie premieres your piece. Then you're home and dry, and everything works!” Other composers seem to agree, and Krzysztof Penderecki, Witold Lutoslawski, Henri Dutilleux, Wolfgang Rihm, and John Williams have all written violin works for Anne-Sophie Mutter.

Over a career spanning seven decades the composer and arranger Angela Morley brought something special to every project she was involved with, be it movie soundtrack, record, radio show or television programme. Working with such heavyweights as John Williams, Shirley Bassey, Noel Coward, Scott Walker, Andre Previn and Frankie Vaughan she gained a reputation as a talented, reliable and resourceful musical collaborator. Although her latter career based mainly in the US was primarily focused on film scores (including Watership Down, Star Wars, Home Alone and Schindler's List) plus TV shows such as Dynasty and Dallas, it is for her earlier work that listeners to this podcast are probably most familiar with her - on The Goon Show and Hancock's Half Hour. Writer Louis Barfe joined Tyler to talk about the life of Angela Morley and some of the standout work and notable musicians with whom she collaborated. Plus: the generosity of Harry Secombe, being told off by Ken Dodd and a warm tribute to the recently departed Bernard Cribbins.

Emanuel Ax sat down with Jim Cunningham on Saturday afternoon after the live broadcast of opening night Friday June 17 to talk about Mozart's 20th concerto, Chopin for an encore, his long association with the Pittsburgh Symphony, friendship with Andre Previn, the war in Ukraine and it's effect on Lviv where Emanuel Ax was born, his recent Beethoven Trios cd Beethoven for Three with Yo Yo Ma and Leonidas Kavakos, and the answer to the question are there too many good musicians today-- recorded upstairs at Heinz Hall in the rehearsal room on the fourth floor with help from Adam Kilburn engineer and videographer.

Für Anne-Sophie Mutter haben beinahe alle großen, lebenden Komponisten geschrieben. 30 Werke hat sie uraufgeführt. Eines ist ihr besonders auf den Leib geschrieben: Das Violinkonzert von André Previn. Er hat sein Stück sogar "Anne-Sophie" genannt. Am Freitag, den 20. Mai, gastiert sie mit dem Werk in der Isarphilharmonie in München.

André Previn, ganador de once premios Grammy, incluyendo un premio especial por su trayectoria, y nominado a 6 premios Emmy por su trabajo en especiales para televisión, nació un día como hoy en 1929. Famoso pianista, director de orquesta y compositor estadounidense, de origen alemán, Previn, cuya impresionante vida que sobrevivió al nazismo y los escándalos de Hollywood, reúne en su filmografía más de cien películas, en las que participó como compositor, arreglista o intérprete. Previn, fue director de la Sinfónica de Londres, hasta 1979 donde dirigió memorables conciertos con obras de autores de finales del romanticismo y principios del siglo XX. Desde finales de los ochenta, Previn se desarrolló por completo en el jazz, creando el grupo André Previn Jazz Trio, con el que recorrió Japón, Estados Unidos y Europa. A continuación escucharemos del album de estudio After hours, el tema There'll Never Be Another You compuesta por Harry Warren en la música y Mack Gordon.

Synopsis On today's date in 1968, a 72-year-old Italian-born American composer named Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco died in Beverley Hills. As a young man, Castelnuovo-Tedesco was already known as a rising composer, concert pianist, music critic and essayist. In 1939 he left Mussolini's Italy and came to America, and like a lot of European musicians of the time, he found work writing film scores for major Hollywood studios. Castelnuovo-Tedesco became an American citizen, and eventually taught at the Los Angeles Conservatory, where his pupils included many famous names from the next generation of film composers, including Jerry Goldsmith, Henry Mancini, Andre Previn, Nelson Riddle and John Williams. In addition to film scores, Castelnuovo-Tedesco composed a signifigant body of concert music, including concertos for the likes of Heifetz and Segovia. A number of Castelnuovo-Tedesco's works are directly related to his Jewish faith, including a choral work from 1947, entitled “Naomi and Ruth.”  The composer's mother was named Naomi, and he claimed the faithful Ruth in the Biblical story reminded him of his own wife, Clara. “In a certain sense,” he wrote, “it was really my symbolic autobiography, existing before I decided to write – to open my heart – in these pages.” Music Played in Today's Program Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco (1895 - 1968) — Naomi and Ruth (St.Martin's Academy and Chorus; Sir Neville Marriner, cond.)

Salvör Nordal, umboðsmaður barna, ræddi síðustu tvö ár í lífi barna á Íslandi þegar heimsfaraldur hafði gríðarleg áhrif á skólagöngu þeirra og frístundastarf. Á morgun hefst barnaþing þar sem um 120 börn á aldrinum 11-15 ára taka þátt. Helstu umræðuefnin á barnaþingi eru mannréttindi, skólamál og umhverfismál en börn hafa leitt umræðuna um umhverfismál. Salvör talaði um mikilvægi þess að ræða við börn um stríð og þá ógn sem blasir við og gæta þess að börn fái réttar upplýsingar og eins að gæta að þeim myndum sem þau sjá. Borgþór Arngrímsson segir fátt rætt í dönskum fjölmiðlum annað en innrás Rússa í Úkraínu. Danski herinn er ekki fjölmennur en árið 2017 var ákveðið að auka framlög til hersins og varnarmál eru ofarlega á dagskrá danskra stjórnvalda.

The story of a veteran Pittsburgh Symphony violinist who joined in 1968 under William Steinberg. Richard DiAdamo is admired by his colleagues for his artistry and, more recently since retiring, an heroic struggle with cancer which metastasized to multiple areas and further caused strokes and blindness. He started the violin at age 8 in Philadelphia studying with Armand DiCamillo of the Philadelphia Orchestra. Richard traces his path to the Eastman School of Music, his participation in the Howard Hanson American Music Festivals, study with Joseph Knitzer and Carroll Glenn followed by work at the Taos School of Music in New Mexico. He joined the Syracuse Symphony conducted by Karl Kritz who had emigrated to the US in 1937 first serving as assistant in the early years of the Pittsburgh Symphony.  Richard played alongside violinist Louis Krasner who commissioned the Alban Berg Concerto.  He founded the Amati String Trio. He won the Pittsburgh Concert Society Audition in 1981. The following year he gave the world premiere of Thomas Janson's  Harlequin for Richard DiAdamo which won praise from critics Robert Croan in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and Tim Page who described it as “committed and praiseworthy” in the New York Times following the first New York performance at Symphony Space with David Stock conducting. Richard DiAdamo remembers his work as a coach of the Pittsburgh Youth Symphony and Three Rivers Young People's Orchestra as well as teaching and founding the strings program at Washington and Jefferson College. He told Andrew Duckenbrod writing for the Post Gazette in 2006 "I am retiring from the symphony but not the violin...I plan on getting up every day and doing my practice. I am looking forward to practicing some solo pieces that I really haven't had the time for."  Marvin Hamlisch called him onstage to speak about his retirement plans which included polishing classic cars—a Packard, a Mercedes and Carman Ghia. Among the highlights of his thousands of concerts across four decades were the visit to Rome to play Mahler at the Vatican, the opening of Heinz Hall with Mahler's Second Symphony and tour concerts with William Steinberg in Japan and Andre Previn at the Musikverein in Vienna. Manfred Honeck is a fan, checking in regularly. Richard made a rosary for Maestro Honeck which he treasures. Richard DiAdamo does not let his health problems get him down. He continues to inspire his colleagues with an indomitable spirit loving life with his wife Catherine DiAdamo who joins in the conversation with Jim Cunningham.

Este mes traemos uno de los musicales más conocidos y populares de los últimos tiempos y es que parecía un contrasentido no incluir los clásicos en unos podcasts dedicados al género musical. JESUCRISTO SUPERSTAR es el primer gran musical de Andrew Lloyd Webber y Tim Rice que apostaron por un formato en el que prácticamente todos los diálogos fueran cantados, lo cual marcaría un cambio que afectaría a otros musicales posteriores como "Los Miserables" o "Chess" por citar un par de los muchos que se sumarían a la idea de bucear en la entonces llamada ópera rock. Tras darle muchas vueltas a qué versión utilizar para el podcast decidí hacer un mix del concept álbum, la versión de la película, la de Londres de 2006 y la de Madrid de 1975 que marcó un hito en la historia del musical en España. 00h 00'00" I don't know know to love him 00h 03'43" Presentación 00h 06'19" Cabecera 00h 07'27" Inicio 00h 08'49" Overture (arreglo Teddy Bautista) 00h 13'21" Heaven on their minds - Murray Head 00h 18'26" What's the buzz - Steve Balsamo & Joanna Ampil 00h 20'48" Strange thing mystifying - Steve Balsamo & Zubin Varla 00h 22'55" The we are decided - Kurt Yaghjian & Bob Bingham 00h 25'54" Todo estará en paz - Angela Carrasco, Teddy Bautista & Camilo Sesto 00h 31'05" This Jesus must die - Kurt Yaghjian & Bob Bingham 00h 34'46" Hosanna - Bob Bingham & Ted Neeley 00h 37'56" Simon Zealotes - Larry T.

Seguro que, de tanto en tanto, cuando te despiertas, una canción resuena en tu cabeza. Una canción que te trae el recuerdo de un disco que hace tiempo que no escuchas. Y cuando lo pones, otras canciones, de otros discos, te vienen a la mente. Así hemos construido el relato musical de esta quincena. A partir del recuerdo de "Doce Presença" del disco de Nana Caymmi "Voz e Suor", un trabajo a duo con el pianista Cesar Camargo Mariano, también recordamos otro duo, el de Leny Andrade acompañada por el piano de Fred Hersch del disco "Maiden Voyage". Y como no hay dos sin tres, viajamos hasta 1961 para escuchar otro duo de voz y piano , el "Duet" de Doris Day y Andre Previn.

ia Farrow may have been born to be a star. Her parents were both major Hollywood figures, and she grew up amongst big stars. By the time she was a teenager Mia Farrow was a star on the ABC TV primetime soap opera Peyton Place. Then came movie roles, as well as a brief marriage to Frank Sinatra. In 1968, Farrow starred in "Rosemary's Baby," the movie which propelled her to major stardom. And another brief marriage, to Andre Previn. Then, in 1980, she began a relationship with Woody Allen. It ended in 1992 with a very messy, complicated, and very public court battle over custody of their children. Allegations of sexual abuse were thrown about.

This is a podcast for those people who love my interviews and those who hate them. That's why I call it Joe Jackson's Greatest Hits and Misses. I take my cue in this from the fact that I have been called as an interviewer - I elaborate on this at the start of the podcast - "the best" in print in Ireland and alternatively a "pretentious" and "boring b****x." It's all the same to me, frankly. Either way, I began to tell this backstory as a secondary thematic thread in my RTE Radio 1, series. The Joe Jackson Tapes Revisited, but there was only so far I could go in that series and on that radio station. So now, it is time for me to go full tilt on the telling of the tale of my thirty-plus years in the Irish media, working for RTE, The Sunday Independent, The Irish Times, and Hot Press. And it is time to tell the highly-detailed diary-based stories I never told about many among the 1,4000 celebrities I interviewed.    Episode 1,  kicks off with what many people see as some of my screw-ups, with interviewees such as Andre Previn, Ken Russell, and Jerry Lee Lewis. Then I flashback to the first interview I did, which inspired me to become an interviewer - my 1985 interview with Leonard Cohen, which to one editor was a flop but to me was a transcendent experience. Enjoy. 

A sweet little theme this week, covering the female of the species from A to Z…by name. We’ll hear Alice to Zelda and Zindy Lou in today’s show. Songs that dedicate themselves to lost love, love rekindled, nostalgic walks, last dances, and songs that read like letters from the heart. We’ll hear songs written by everyone from The Everly Brothers to Bobby Fuller and Andre Previn in our show today with performances from Rose Maddox, Tom Petty, Elvis, Buddy Guy, and Vince Giordano & the Nighthawks. So why not drop in for a little chat, a little bit of a high note and E flat, and memories of the girl (or guy) that left you behind. Community radio for Sonoma County is your very best bet: KOWS-LP 92.5 FM Occidental, streaming everywhere at kowsfm.com.

In this interview we will hear from Violinist and Author Alicia Previn who comes by her musical heritage honestly. The daughter of world-famous composer Andre Previn and well-known Jazz Singer Betty Bennet, great music is one of her earliest memories. Like many she study piano first as other mother and her sister played but she soon gravitated to violin and that has been her life-long love. Alicia shares her struggle of trying to explain that her brand of violin was different and not just for limited genres or music styles. Over the years she created her own sound that people seem to love. As an avid environmentalist and teacher, she wrote a song about earthworms that led to her first book. She then followed that book with a story about a tortoise and the desert, then a story about giving bees a chance. Her fourth book What Paradise Found is still very much about nature and how that spiritual connection offers healing, peace and joy while showing children a magical way to deal with moving to a new place. You can find all her books and music at www.AliciaPrevin.com.

Find us at: iTunes Spotify Patreon STRONG CONTENT WARNING: Racism as a plot point, and the use of two terms in the bio and description of two cast characters. Also, misogyny, discussion of anti-semitism, and abduction of women. We went into this one expecting a fun, whimsical romp of a musical to cleanse the palette after several serious films in a row. Instead, we got a fun, whimsical romp of a musical that just so happened to lean into racism in a truly awful way. About 75% of this movie is great and fun and different than just about any movie musical. But that other 25% - it creates a major plot point out of racial stereotypes that isn't just problematic, it's patently offensive. We love Julie Andrews and Mary Tyler Moore; we think Carol Channing is simply divine; and George Roy Hill's directing is entirely his own. But the story of this movie went so hard for such a terrible plot device, that as much as we enjoyed the main story, it's up in the air as to whether we can recommend this movie.

Find us at: iTunes Spotify Patreon STRONG CONTENT WARNING: Racism and discussions of racism in the deep south. Also, violence, murder, misogyny and abuse of women. Last year, the Academy championed a film that explicitly whitewashed Southern racism by centering an amazing black story on his white chauffeur. It’s not the first time they would do this, and it certainly won’t be the last. But the bitter taste that Green Book left has colored most films dealing with racism and the South that we’ve viewed since then. Enter a breath of fresh air this week, with a movie that doesn’t try to hide the evil, pervasive nature of racism and Jim Crow. It’s not perfect, and it pulls its punches strategically, but it’s light years ahead of what Hollywood often accepts as commentary on racism. Perhaps it’s the crackling, tense energy of Sidney Poitier and Rod Steiger that elevates the film, but it might just be how honest and raw the movie feels.

Hampton Hawes is a major piano stylist who rarely gets mentioned when piano giants come up in conversation. Hawes was widely admired by many including Oscar Peterson, Horace Silver, Andre Previn and others. Perhaps because Hawes was based for most part in his hometown of Los Angeles that maybe kept him out of the spotlight. Hawes was a major stylist with a very developed approach to the instrument and most were surprised that he was self taught and wasn't knowledgeable about theory and was not a great reader of music. He did have a photographic memory and could play anything he heard once. This is a fine date with Hawes' own trio with the great Red Mitchell on bass and Chuck Thompson on drums. Hawes runs through many great .standards and plays several of his own blues based original compositions. "Presenting Hampton Hawes" is a fine introduction to this major player.

Shelagh has opened more than one dozen Broadway productions. Among them are Mary Poppins, A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder, South Pacific, Honeymoon in Vegas, Evita, Fiddler on the Roof, Anastasia, and most currently Disney’s Frozen. Since arriving in New York in 2006, she has performed regularly with The Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, The Mostly Mozart Festival, The American Ballet Theater, The American Symphony Orchestra, The Opera Orchestra of New York, is third horn with the Greenwich Symphony Orchestra and has been principal horn of the Vermont Symphony Orchestra under the artistic direction of Jaime Laredo since 1999.

Shelagh has established fluency in the commercial realm as well as the classical, having performed as part of the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis, Michel Legrand, the ensembles of Earl McDonald, Gary Morgan, Jamie Baum, John Allmark, John Vanore and Greg Hopkins. Shelagh has recorded, performed live in concert, as well as on televised events with Sting, The Who, Tony Bennett, Rufus Wainwright, Lady Gaga, Barry Manilow, Joni Mitchell, Trey Anastasio, Club d’Elf, Josh Groban, Brian Wilson, Linda Ronstadt, and most recently with the 2019 Tony Awards at Radio City Music Hall. Chamber music has been at the very core of Shelagh’s success as a musician. A winner of the Coleman Competition (2000), and a founding member of the award-winning Triton Brass (Fischoff, Lyon & Concert Artist’s Guild, 2005), Shelagh has collaborated with her world-class and longtime colleagues in order to achieve what is only artistically possible through such an intimate medium. Together they have shared their gifts with many thousands of others through live performances, recordings, and through education.

I had so much fun talking to David and Tom. They were absolutely adorable. They were a couple teenagers from the midwest that saw the film "Thats Entertainment" and they became fans of all things classic Hollywood. They decided to write the classic stars for interviews. Much to their delight they heard back from Fred Astaire and an interview was set up. They were 18 years old and fresh out of high school. They had to get the money together to fly to L.A.. They got the tickets and decked out in their new suits they were off. They were too young to drive in CA. so they found a cheapo motel that was close enough to Freds to walk and boom, there they were with their idol Fred. Fred was kind, charming, funny and they loved him. Fred opened the doors for talking to other greats"Fred talked to you, I guess its OK." They have wonderful stories on Gene Kelly, Stanley Donen and his then wife Yvette Mimieux, Gregory Peck (swoon), Tippi Hedren, Tan Man George Hamilton, Charlton Heston, Angie Dickinson, Lucille Ball, Andre Previn, Jimmy Cagney, Mickey Rooney, a Hilarios story about lunch with Virginia Mayo and a three hour talk with RJ, alias Robert Wagner. He dished and dished. I'm sure they didn't tell me everything. There are so many interviews we did not get to, like fifty. The book is a joy to read. You will love David and Tom.

It is axiomatic, within that tradition, that man and woman alike are made in the image of that God. We also transform chaos into Being, through speech. We transform the manifold possibilities of the future into the actualities of past and present. To tell the truth is to bring the most habitable reality into Being. Truth builds edifices that can stand a thousand years. Truth feeds and clothes the poor, and makes nations wealthy and safe. Truth reduces the terrible complexity of a man to the simplicity of his word, so that he can become a partner, rather than an enemy. Truth makes the past truly past, and makes the best of the future’s possibilities. Truth is the ultimate, inexhaustible natural resource. It’s the light in the darkness. See the truth. Tell the truth>’ Jordan Peterson

Alan Jay Lerner estudió en Harvard, donde tuvo compañeros de clase como John F. Kennedy o Leonard Bernstein con el que colaboró escribiendo la letra del himno “Lonely men of Harvard” y aunque sus trabajos como letrista más conocidos fueron los que hizo con el músico Frederick Loewe que ya vimos en la anterior playlist, también lo hizo con otros músicos no menos famosos y es esa parte menos conocida la que vamos a tratar en esta playlist. Trabajó con Kurt Weill en el musical LOVE LIFE y probó suerte en el cine escribiendo para Burton Lane las letras de las canciones para la película "Bodas reales" (Royal wedding). Su guión para la película UN AMERICANO EN PARÍS, le daría el Oscar, aunque aquí las canciones llevaban música y letras de los Gershwin. Con Burton Lane trabajó en una adaptación inacabada de “HUCKLEBERRY FINN”, en "ON A CLEAR DAY YOU CAN SEE FOREVER" (1965) y "CARMELINA" (1979). Escribió el musical "COCO" con Andre Previn (1969), "LOLITA, MY LOVE" con John Barry (1971), "1600 PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE" con Leonard Bernstein (1976) y "DANCE A LITTLE CLOSER" con Charles Strouse (1983). Andrew Lloyd Webber le llamó para que escribiera las letras del musical "The Phantom of the Opera", pero tras escribir "Masquerade", avisó que debía abandonar el trabajo ya que le habían diagnosticado un tumor cerebral y tenía pérdidas de memoria. También rechazó hacerse cargo de la adaptación al inglés del musical "Les Miserables" por el mismo motivo. Aquí os dejamos algunas de las letras menos conocidas de Alan Jay Lerner con excelentes intérpretes que van de Julie Andrews o Barbra Streisand a Brent Barrett o Bryn Terfel, incluso el mismo Alan Jay Lerner cantando un tema que se cortó de “My Fair Lady” que con música y letra suyas interpretaba él mismo en algunas ocasiones.

I veckan gjorde den norska stjärnviolinisten Vilde Frang en bejublad insats i Bartoks första violinkonsert i Stockholms konserthus. Sex år efter sitt stora internationella genombrott med Wienerfilharmonikerna känns varje konsert fortfarande som den första, säger hon. Med Musikrevyns Sofia Nyblom pratar hon om hur trött hon är på indelningen i manliga och kvinnliga violinister och varför hon inte gillar att vara för uppklädd på scen. Referensen: Nutid vs dåtid Panelen jämför Kirill Karabits och Bournemouth symfoniorkesters inspelning av William Waltons symfonier med premiärinspelningen av andra symfonin från 1964 med Cleveland-orkestern, dirigerad av George Szell.

In this episode Brooklyn-based guitarist Scott Metzger discusses his fascination with a 1977 recording of Sergei Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 3. This version features piano soloist Martha Argerich playing with the London Symphony conducted by Andre Previn.

Dan and Vicky look at the 1969 musical Paint Your Wagon starring Lee Marvin, Clint Eastwood, Jean Seberg and Ray Walston.  To adapt his own Broadway show for the big screen, producer and lyricist Alan Jay Lerner chose writer Paddy Chayefsky and composer Andre Previn.  They changed the source material considerably and scored 10 million dollars from Paramount to bring their nearly three hour version to the screen.  Fraught with production problems, the film, shot almost entirely on real sets built in the rugged Oregon mountains, went 10 million dollars over budget and ushered in the beginning of the end for the movie musical. In addition to their thoughts on this bloated, plot heavy epic and it's legacy, Dan and Vicky talk about what they've seen lately.  Vicky, of course, outwatches Dan with the Italian series Gomorrah, the horror films The Black Cat, The Sender, Phenomena, The Funhouse and Torso, and the 1969 James Garner starring Marlowe.  Dan gives his reflections on Stranger Things and the new film Don't Breathe.  They also nearly come to blows over the slasher Humongous -- guess who likes it and who doesn't. They also touch on the negatives and positives of big box stores (?), the impact of In A Gadda Da Vida and the great songs of October 1969. Hit the trail with Hot Date 36 and your guaranteed to strike gold.  Listen and leave us some feedback

We are featuring Bruce Bransby on today’s show. Bruce has been professor of double bass at Indiana University for three decades and has taught bass players who now hold positions in major orchestras worldwide. Bruce has also been a faculty member at the Aspen Music Festival for this same length of time. Prior to that, he served as principal bass of the Los Angeles Philharmonic and the Kansas City Symphony. Bruce is also an outstanding soloist, composer, and arranger, and you’ll be hearing an excerpt from his arrangement of the Valentini Cello Sonata at the beginning of the episode, and we’ll conclude today with Bruce’s own Valse for double bass and piano, which he composed under the pseudonym Rolande E. Curb (Curb is Bruce spelled backwards). We feature more music from Bruce in the bonus content for this episode, and you can access that material from the Contrabass Conversations app. Just click on this episode and choose ‘bonus.’These compositions and arrangements can be purchased from Lemur Music (Theme, Prelude, and Valentini links) or the String Emporium website.  Enjoy, and check out this link to learn more about the Performer Diploma in Orchestral Studies offered by the Jacobs School--most graduate double bass students are choosing this option at IU. About Bruce: Bruce Bransby was principal double bass with the Los Angeles Philharmonic (1978-1986) under Zubin Mehta, Carlo Maria Giulini, and Andre Previn, and was principal double bass with the Kansas City Symphony (1971-1978). He studied with Nat Gangursky, Peter Mercurio, and Stuart Sankey. Professor Bransby performs widely as soloist and chamber player and has premiered numerous works, including several concertos for the double bass. While in Los Angeles, he was active in studio recordings for motion pictures and television. He was a faculty member at California State University Northridge, the University of Missouri at Kansas City, the California Music Center, and the Los Angeles Philharmonic Institute, and has been a performing member of the faculty of the Aspen Music Festival since 1987. His students hold positions in many of the world's finest symphony orchestras.

On May 4, the finale of Renée Fleming's Perspectives series at Carnegie Hall is "Vienna: Window to Modernity," a thoughtful tribute to the time and place where the European musical tradition, under the influence of literary and visual arts, gave way to the 20th century. Here, Ms. Fleming, composer and conductor André Previn, and conductor and music historian Leon Botstein discuss how several of the major Viennese composers of the period—Korngold, Schoenberg, and Zeisl—spent a lot of time in Los Angeles and how their experiences there differed widely.

In 1998, soprano Renée Fleming originated the role of Blanche DuBois in a searing performance at the premiere of André Previn's beautiful opera based on the Tennessee Williams classic "A Streetcar Named Desire." Here, Ms. Fleming discusses the work with the composer.

También, presentamos el piano de Andre Previn y la voz de Diahann Carroll en otro dueto que deslumbra por su musicalidad. Escucharemos a Lafayette Gilchrist, un talento reciente del jazz que ha provocado gran interés; y para terminar, el innovador de la trompeta: Arturo Sandoval, interpretando Maria, aquel clásico de Leonard Bernstein en la película West Side Story.

John Sturges' formalist masterpiece is also a progressive studio movie confronting post-WW2 racism. Andre Previn's possibly career-best music score turns up again in, of all places, the "Forbidden Planet" trailer!
