Der Eurovision Song Contest gehört mit jährlich fast 200 Millionen Fernsehzuschauerinnen und Zuschauern zum weltweit grössten TV-Spektakel. Aber auch die Austragungsorte profitieren vom ESC. Die Fans reisen für den ESC quer durch Europa und geben viel Geld für Tickets und Übernachtung aus. Die Stimmung vor Ort wird immer wieder als magisch beschrieben. Obwohl der ESC ein Musikwettbewerb ist, bei dem die verschiedensten Ländern um den Sieg kämpfen, scheint der ESC die Länder für einmal zu vereinen. Einen grossen Teil dieses Erfolgs machen die Fans aus. Schon Monate im Vorfeld werden persönliche Favoriten in den sozialen Medien gepostet, es wird heftig diskutiert und man freut sich gemeinsam auf den jährlichen Event. Das Wiedersehen der Fans aus aller Welt gleicht nicht selten einer Klassenzusammenkunft. Sven Epiney arbeitet seit Jahren am ESC als Kommentator für SRF.

Backgroundgesang ist weit mehr als nur Begleitung. Er gibt einem Song Tiefe, Atmosphäre, Emotion – und manchmal auch den entscheidenden Wiedererkennungswert. Nicht selten ist er musikalisch anspruchsvoller als der Lead-Gesang, dennoch bleiben Backgroundsänger meist namenlos – und im Hintergrund. Themen der Sendung: · Wie beeinflusst Backgroundgesang unser Hörerlebnis? Beispiele aus unterschiedlichen Musikgenres von Aretha Franklin über Queen bis Destiny's Child. · Wie sich die Rolle von Backing Vocals in der Popmusik verändert hat – von der funktionalen Begleitung zum stilprägenden Element. · Sie liefern perfekte Harmonien, punktgenaue Einsätze und astreine Intonation – und der Star macht die Show? Unterschiede zwischen Backing Vocals und Lead Vocals. · Was es braucht, um in diesem Beruf Fuss zu fassen, und wie Jane Bogaert zwischen Backstage und Weltbühne den Ton angibt. · Warum der Beruf des Backing Vocalisten so unterschätzt ist. Klischees über gescheiterte Frontsängerinnen und Bandmitglieder, die nicht singen können, aber trotzdem den Backgroundgesang übernehmen. · Von Cher über Mariah Carey bis Phil Collins: Wie Karrieren im Schatten anderer begannen und was das über Karrierewege im Popbusiness aussagt? Im Podcast zu hören sind: · Jane Bogaert (*1967 in Solothurn): Schweizer Sängerin und ESC-Teilnehmerin (2000), die mit Stars wie Robbie Williams, Ronan Keating, Anastacia, Al Bano & Romina Power, Joss Stone und DJ BoBo gearbeitet hat · Carsten Kaiser (*1974): Audioproduzent, Musik-Soziologe und Autor von «Background Vocals: Grundlagen für Probe, Bühne und Studio» (PPV Medien 2006) Bei Fragen, Anregungen oder Themenvorschlägen schreibt uns: kontext@srf.ch Autorin: Elisabeth Baureithel Host: Bernard Senn Produktion: Sabine Bitter Technik: Serge Krebs

As Pesach approaches, the stress of navigating family dynamics, expectations, and personal triggers can feel overwhelming—especially for those of us with complex backgrounds. In this heartfelt conversation, Chaya Hinda and I explore what it means to prioritize our own needs, set boundaries with difficult personalities, and embrace the reality of our emotions rather than pushing them aside. We dive into the power of saying “no” with confidence, making the Seder meaningful even in unconventional settings, and shifting focus from external pressures to inner connection and joy. With raw honesty and deep compassion, we also touch on the challenges of parenting when carrying personal trauma, the importance of speaking to ourselves with kindness, and how to balance self-care with communal and familial responsibilities. If you've ever felt the weight of holiday expectations or struggled to find peace in the chaos, have a listen to this conversation. Our hope and tefillah is that you'll walk away feeling validated, supported, and equipped with new perspectives to bring more ease and meaning into your Yom Tov experience.

Mit seinem neunten Album "Young Americans" verließ David Bowie die Glam-Rock-Ära und wandte sich dem Soul zu. Der gleichnamige Titelsong machte ihn endlich auch in den USA zum Star. David Bowie galt als Meister der Verwandlung und wird oft das "Chamäleon der Popmusik" genannt. Doch SWR1 Meilensteine-Host Frank König widerspricht: Bowie war das Gegenteil eines Chamäleons. Er wollte nicht mit seiner Umwelt verschmelzen, sondern herausstechen. Mit "Young Americans" beweist er genau das und erfand sich noch einmal neu. Es entstand ein Album mit afroamerikanischen Soul- und Funkeinflüssen. Den Stil betitelte Bowie als "Plastic Soul", eine selbstironische Anspielung darauf, dass er als weißer Brite zwar Soul spielte, aber niemals völlig authentisch sein konnte. Anfang der 1970er Jahre entdeckte David Bowie seine Leidenschaft für Soulmusik. 1972 lernte er die Sängerin Ava Cherry kennen, die ihn 1974 in die legendären Sigma Sound Studios in Philadelphia begleitete. Dort nahmen sie gemeinsam den Song "Sweet Thing" auf. Die Sigma Sound Studios, Heimat des Philadelphia Soul, boten die perfekte Kulisse für die Aufnahmen des Albums "Young Americans", die im August 1974 begannen. Neben Ava Cherry als Backgroundsängerin begleiteten Bowie auch Funk-Gitarrist Carlos Alomar, sowie der damals noch unbekannte Luther Vandross, der später als R&B-Star berühmt wurde. Gleichzeitig befand sich David Bowie zum Zeitpunkt der Aufnahmen in seiner schlimmsten Lebensphase. Er kämpfte mit seiner Drogensucht und war dementsprechend in keiner guten körperlichen Verfassung. Trotz seines Zustands war "Young Americans" innerhalb von zwei Wochen fertig aufgenommen. __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Young Americans" wird im Podcast gesprochen: (16:30) – "Young Americans"(25:13) – "Across The Universe"(28:52) – "Fame"(37:17) – "Fascination"(52:32) – "Right"(57:53) – "Somebody Up There Likes Me" __________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge: https://1.ard.de/david-bowie-young-americans __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

This can make it difficult for teens to plan, prioritize, and remember future tasks.Sleep Patterns: Teenagers naturally have different sleep-wake cycles than adults, often leading to difficulty falling asleep early and waking up for school.Creating a Safe Environment: Parents should strive to create a safe and supportive environment for their kids, focusing on guidance and encouragement rather than constant pressure to achieve.Practical Tools for DadsEngage in a meaningful conversation with your kids. Ask them to identify the biggest source of pressure they are currently experiencing, then follow these steps:1. Let your kids share their perspective.2. Verbalize your support.3.

I'm excited to share this conversation with Will McCollum and Matthew Marshall, the passionate minds behind Citymakers Collective. This summer, they're hosting a transformative two-week program in Charleston, featuring some of the top practitioners in the New Urbanism and human-centered design movements.  Their approach is holistic, hands-on, and experiential, with a mission to equip the next generation of city makers to design and build places that are resilient, beautiful, and centered on people. In this episode, we delve into the challenges of traditional education, what's missing, and why they felt compelled to create this innovative summer program. If you're a young professional or student working in the built environment—whether you're an architect, planner, builder, developer, engineer or something else—I highly encourage you to check it out and consider applying. Learn more at: citymakerscollective.org TAKEAWAYS The City Makers Collective program teaches principles that make cities more livable, sustainable, and people-focused. Participants engage with Charleston's urban fabric through walking tours, real-world case studies, and collaborative studio projects. The program blends timeless design principles with modern needs to create places that work for today's challenges. Architects, planners, developers, and more come together to foster holistic learning and solutions. Students learn how to navigate market realities, collaborate effectively, and implement sustainable practices in urban design. Instructors include top practitioners like Lou Oliver and Maria Sanchez (Estudio Urbano), offering a wealth of knowledge and diverse perspectives. The program addresses the lack of foundational training in urbanism and traditional design in most architecture schools. Participants gain access to a powerful network of professionals, creating lasting connections for their careers. The program offers scholarships and affordable housing options to ensure a wide range of students can participate. The City Makers Collective aims to grow beyond this summer, offering ongoing programs to shape the future of urbanism and architecture.

Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. — Genesis 1:2 Beginnings are important. Backgrounds about characters in novels and movies help us see the situations that have shaped them. Sometimes we introduce ourselves by telling about our ancestors or about events that have shaped our family history. We recognize that who we are has a lot to do with the situations and the people who came before us. Similarly, the Bible's first words about the earth are that it was “formless and empty” and that “darkness was over the surface of the deep”—a poetic way of saying that the world did not exist before God started creating. Have you ever been in a cave without any lights on? It can be so dark that you can't see your hands even when you touch your nose. The Bible begins with a darkness that is deeper than that. It's the deepest darkness the Bible writers could imagine: the empty darkness of the world not existing. As we begin Advent, looking forward to the light of Jesus' coming, there is something very comforting about the Bible's beginning. However heavy and impossible our current circumstances may feel, the Bible reminds us that our story begins with the God who creates life in the midst of the deepest darkness imaginable. In other words, with God there is always hope. Dear God, create hope within us in this Advent season. Please remind us that your creative work is greater than the darkest circumstances we can imagine. Amen.
