Mike Pekovich and Phil Huber join Ben to debrief their week-long woodworking tour of England—part museum crawl, part shop class, all inspiration. From London's Building Crafts College (trade-focused millwork and stonemasonry) to the Snowdon School of Furniture (studio furniture, domestic woods, and a “rip-only” tablesaw philosophy), they compare shop practices and rethink joinery workflows (tenoners, Domino, band-sawn cheeks, using the miter saw's depth stop). The trip winds through the Westonbirt Arboretum and an unforgettable boxwood deep-dive with a Baroque oboe maker, then into the V&A's technique-curated furniture gallery. In the Cotswolds, Rodmarton Manor (Barnsley/Gimson) and the Gordon Russell Museum spark lessons in design “grammar,” chamfers, and English drawer slips you'll want to steal. There's even a pub-hall turning demo with Paul Hannaby—pints included. Plus: a quick preview of next week's Woodworking in America in Des Moines and what Ben, Phil, and friends will be teaching and doing on site.

Have you ever wandered through a museum and thought: Why is the Virgin Mary always dressed in blue? Did they really use eggs in egg tempera—and did it make those paintings smell weird? And why, for some reason, does baby Jesus sometimes look like a tiny grumpy old man?Professor Suzannah Lipscomb is joined by Verity Babbs, art historian and comedian, who is on a mission to shake the dust off art history. They take a whirlwind tour from the Renaissance through to the Baroque, taking in fig leaves, duels and murder.MORE:Durer: The Great Renaissance ArtistThe Tudors' Portrait Artist: HolbeinPresented by Professor Suzannah Lipscomb.

A new exhibition at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, UK, called Made in Ancient Egypt, reveals untold stories of the people behind a host of remarkable objects, and the technology and techniques they used. The Art Newspaper's digital editor, Alexander Morrison visits the museum to take a tour with the curator, Helen Strudwick. One of the great revelations of the past two decades in scholarship about women artists is Michaelina Wautier, the Baroque painter active in what is now Belgium in the middle of the 17th century. The largest ever exhibition of Wautier's work opened this week at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, and travels to the Royal Academy of Arts in London next year. Ben Luke speaks to the art historian who rediscovered this extraordinary painter, Katlijne Van der Stighelen, who has also co-edited the catalogue of the Vienna show. And this episode's Work of the Week is Robert Rauschenberg's Bed (1955), one of the most important works of US art of the post-war period. It features in the exhibition Five Friends: John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, Cy Twombly, which this week arrives at the Museum Ludwig in Cologne. We speak to Yilmaz Dziewior, the co-curator of the exhibition.Made in Ancient Egypt, Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, UK, 3 October-2 April 2026Michaelina Wautier, Painter, Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna30 September-22 February 2026; Royal Academy of Arts, London27 March – 21 June 2026.Five Friends: John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, Cy Twombly, Museum Ludwig, Cologne, Germany,3 October-11 January 2026Student subscription offer: stay connected to the art world from your first lecture to your final dissertation with a three-year student subscription to The Art Newspaper for just £99/$112/€105.

[Back to School]Far from being round and regular, “baroque pearls” have strange and unique shapes. Long considered wonders of nature, they inspired goldsmiths throughout the Renaissance and into the Baroque and Neo-Classical periods. Anna Maria Luisa de' Medici, known as the last descendent of the House of Medici, had a passion for such pearls.Voice of Jewels, a podcast from L'ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts supported by Van Cleef & Arpels.

Title: Yet another Bach! Track: JL Bach Trauermusik: 25. Aria (Bass): "So viel Gnadengaben" Artist: Andreas Wolf (Bass) Hans-Christoph Rademann, Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin Publisher: ℗ 2011 harmonia mundi
I have become a big fan of Ruckus, a dynamic Early Music ensemble, and I so enjoyed this uplifting conversation with Clay Zeller-Townson, their Artistic Director and bassoonist. ou'll be hearing clips from The Edinburgh Rollick with music from the Niel Gow collection, featuring the violinist Keir GoGwilt, and because this music is very much at the crossroads of Scottish traditional music and Baroque music, it delights audiences who are more into folk as well as baroque. You'll be inspired to hear Clay's ideas around crafting something truly personal and unique and connecting with audiences, as well the importance of access to music education at all levels. We also got into Ruckus' Fly the Coop project with flutist Emi Ferguson with a wonderfully fresh take on the music of J.S. Bach, and a lot of what Clay shared was how the musicians connect deeply with their audiences with contemporary relevance in many different ways.You'll find the track names of the music included in the time stamps.

Hola! This are Jorge Román and Fran Glaría, your passport to the hidden stories behind Spain's stone and stained glass. Today on Spanish Loops we are talking to a subject that is as old as civilization and twice as dramatic: what makes a churchdifferent from a cathedral, a basilica, or an ermita? From humble chapels tucked into cliff faces to awe striking cathedrals that declared a city's power, we will trace the architecture, the titles, the rituals, and the politics that turned simple worship spaces into symbols of pilgrimage, prestige, and yes, the occasional palace sized ego!We'll stroll through time, Roman foundations, medieval firestorms of reform, Renaissance showmanship, Baroque theatricality and pull apart the real reasons, a place gets called a basilica versus when a bishop sits in a cathedral'schair. You'll meet the hermits who birthed ermitas on lonely crags, the popes who handed out basilica status like royal favours, and the clever civic leaders who built cathedrals to put their town on the map. Expect human stories: miracles, rivalries, secret chapels, and the odd scandal that reshaped whole neighbourhoods.Are you a curious traveler planning your next Spanish loop?Do you love a good origin story? Do you want to sound brilliant at church tours? This episode is for you. We'll give you the quick ID points how to spot a cathedral from a basilica in under thirty seconds plus the cultural context that makes every stone matter.Tune in, subscribe, and share because these buildings don't just hold prayers, they hold the history of us. Now let's walk inside and listen to the stones.See you next week!

Lithuania sits along the Baltic Sea, sharing borders with Latvia, Belarus, Poland, and Russia's Kaliningrad region. Its strategic location made it a crossroads of cultures and empires for centuries. This geography also gave Lithuania access to trade routes that shaped its prosperity. Interestingly, it is the only Baltic nation with a history as a medieval empire.Vilnius, the capital, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site thanks to its Baroque architecture and Old Town. Walking through its cobbled streets feels like stepping back in time. From Gothic churches to Renaissance courtyards, the city is a tapestry of styles. Fun trivia: Vilnius once competed with Florence for being called the “Jerusalem of the North.Lithuania is one of the oldest recorded states in Europe, officially mentioned in chronicles as early as 1009. That's more than a thousand years of history. Over time, it rose to become the heart of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, stretching from the Baltic to the Black Sea. Imagine one small nation commanding such vast lands!The Grand Duchy of Lithuania reached its height in the 14th century. It was one of the largest countries in Europe, covering parts of today's Ukraine, Belarus, Poland, and Russia. This powerful state balanced military might with religious tolerance. Did you know it was one of the last places in Europe to officially convert to Christianity—in 1387? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Historically Thinking: Conversations about historical knowledge and how we achieve it
IntroductionEach year millions of tourists visit the Czech capital, awed by its blend of architectural styles and dramatic landscape. St. Vitus's Gothic cathedral towers above the Charles Bridge and the Vltava River, while winding alleys lead to elegant squares lined with Renaissance palaces, Baroque statues, and modern glass structures. Yet this beauty obscures centuries of conflict — ethnic, religious, political, and more typically mundane conflicts— beginning when Prague was just a fort on a hill above a river. Presumably it wasn't built there for the view.In her new book, Prague: The Heart of Europe, Cynthia Paces traces the city's history from the late ninth century, when Slavic dukes built the first fortifications and church, through eleven centuries of triumph and tragedy. Prague has been both an imperial center of a great empire and a city on the periphery of empires—several of them. It became a European capital of art, politics, and pilgrimage, endured religious wars and defenestrations, and was nearly destroyed in the Thirty Years' War. At the beginning of the twentieth century it was celebrated as a beacon of democracy, only for its citizens to endure violent antisemitism, Nazi occupation, and communist repression — before once again becoming a beacon of democracy.Through her story of Prague we come to understand the truth of Franz Kafka's observation: “Prague does not let go; this little mother has claws.” Our conversation moves across centuries of wars, saints, emperors, rebellions, and revolutions to show why Prague still grips the imagination.About the GuestCynthia Paces is Professor of History at The College of New Jersey.

Francesco Cavallis wilder und satirischer Ritt durch die römische Antike überzeugte das Publikum bei der gestrigen Premiere in jeder Hinsicht. Regisseur Max Emanuel Cencic setzte in der Oper "Pompeo Magno" auf Opulenz und Tempo.
Liese, Kirsten www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Fazit
Venezianischer Karneval trifft Oper: Max Emanuel Cenčić inszeniert Cavallis "Pompeo Magno" als wildes Theaterstück voller Intrigen und Eifersucht. Ein musikalisches Abenteuer, das Realität und Spiel verschmelzen lässt.

Soprano Rowan Pierce joins Jonathan Whiting to reflect on the intimacy of making chamber-scale Baroque music without a conductor, the challenges of Bach's expansive recitatives, and the almost operatic drama of Handel's 'Tra le fiamme'. She also speaks about her long collaboration with Ashley Solomon, the ensemble's director, and about finding new colours and meaning in these works – music that, though written three centuries ago, resonates with striking relevance today. We were also incredibly honoured to recently learn that the Gramophone Magazine Podcast will now be included in The British Library Sound Archive, catalogued and preserved for future generations as part of the nation's audio and cultural heritage.

It might at first sound like it would be nice to be the lover of the king of the Olympian gods, attended by divine spirits, and living in a luxurious palace among the clouds. But this happily-ever-after turns sour after Princess Semele asks Jupiter for the gift of immortality. After a bit of intrigue amongst the gods–not least among them Jupiter's resourceful and ruthless wife Juno–disaster strikes the princess Semele and her dreams are reduced to ashes. An “English opera” from the later career of Baroque master, George Frideric Handel, Semele teems with engaging arias as well as sumptuous choral pieces. Inspired by a tale told by Ovid, Handel and his librettist, William Congreve crafted a work of art that beguiles and entertains supremely.
