Is your son destined for greatness?Baroque sculptor Gian Lorenzo Bernini once said, “If you want to know the extent of a man's ability, give him something difficult to do.”Today's society wants to give everyone a prize for showing up, and award everyone an ‘A' for turning in the assignment.  The temptation to accept the easy ‘A' and the prize with no victory creates a world with no champions.Break the mold!  Challenge your son!  …the cold, early-morning air broken by the crunch of gravel under his hiking boots as he ascends a peak, the crash of helmets as he charges for a tackle, or the roar of a river as he shoots a rapid….Is your son destined for greatness?  Help him find it!For more encouragement and parenting advice, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.

This Day in Legal History: Bruno Hauptmann ConvictedOn February 13, 1935, a New Jersey jury convicted Bruno Hauptmann of kidnapping and murdering the infant son of famed aviator Charles Lindbergh. The crime had transfixed the nation for nearly three years and was widely labeled the “Crime of the Century.” The child was taken from the Lindbergh home in 1932, and despite a ransom payment, was later found dead. Public outrage was immediate and intense, with newspapers covering nearly every development in the investigation and trial.Hauptmann's prosecution relied heavily on circumstantial evidence, including ransom notes and expert testimony linking his handwriting to those notes. The government also introduced evidence tying marked ransom bills to Hauptmann's possession. The trial raised early concerns about the reliability of forensic handwriting analysis and the influence of media attention on jury impartiality. Critics then and now have questioned whether the intense publicity compromised due process protections.The case also reshaped federal criminal law. In response to the kidnapping, Congress enacted the Lindbergh Law, formally known as the Federal Kidnapping Act. The statute made it a federal offense to transport a kidnapping victim across state lines, expanding federal jurisdiction over what had traditionally been a state crime. That shift reflected a broader trend during the early twentieth century toward increased federal involvement in criminal enforcement.Today, the Hauptmann conviction remains a staple in criminal law courses, not only for its tragic facts but also for its lasting procedural and constitutional implications.Goldman Sachs' chief legal officer, Kathy Ruemmler, resigned after newly released Justice Department documents detailed her past communications with Jeffrey Epstein. CEO David Solomon announced that he accepted her resignation, which will take effect on June 30. Ruemmler said the media attention surrounding her prior legal work had become a distraction. The disclosures showed she exchanged numerous emails with Epstein between 2014 and 2019 and received gifts from him, including luxury items. Some emails revealed that she advised Epstein on how to respond to press inquiries about his treatment by prosecutors.The documents also noted that Epstein attempted to contact her by phone on the night of his 2019 arrest on sex trafficking charges. Ruemmler stated that she knew Epstein only in her capacity as a defense attorney and denied any knowledge of ongoing criminal conduct. Before joining Goldman, she led the white-collar defense practice at Latham & Watkins and previously served as White House counsel during the Obama administration.The broader document release has drawn attention to Epstein's connections within major financial institutions, including UBS and JPMorgan. Ruemmler's departure marks one of the most prominent banking exits linked to the renewed scrutiny of Epstein's network.Top Goldman Sachs lawyer Ruemmler resigns after Epstein disclosures | ReutersA federal judge in Minnesota ruled that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement improperly interfered with detainees' access to their attorneys during a recent enforcement operation. U.S. District Judge Nancy Brasel found that ICE's practices during “Operation Metro Surge” effectively denied thousands of people meaningful legal access. The order requires ICE to stop quickly transferring detainees out of Minnesota and to permit attorney visits and confidential phone calls. The ruling will remain in effect for 14 days while the case proceeds.The class action lawsuit was filed on January 27 on behalf of noncitizen detainees. According to the court, many individuals were moved out of state without notice, making it difficult or impossible for lawyers to locate them. In some instances, detainees were transferred so often that ICE itself lost track of their whereabouts. Judge Brasel concluded that while ICE did not formally deny the right to counsel, its actions in practice severely limited that right.The court also cited evidence that detainees were given limited phone access, sometimes sharing a small number of phones among dozens of people, with calls occurring in nonprivate settings. One asylum seeker with a valid work permit was held for 18 days despite a court order requiring his earlier release and was transferred across multiple states without explanation. The judge rejected ICE's claim that it lacked sufficient resources, noting that the agency had committed substantial personnel and funding to the enforcement effort.ICE blocked detainees' access to lawyers in Minnesota, judge finds | ReutersPresident Donald Trump announced four new judicial nominations, including a White House attorney selected for a seat on the U.S. Court of International Trade. The nominee, Kara Westercamp, currently serves as associate counsel in the White House and previously worked at the Justice Department. If confirmed, she would join a nine-member court that handles disputes involving U.S. trade laws, including challenges to tariffs. Her nomination comes as numerous companies contest Trump's sweeping global tariffs and seek refunds on duties already paid.Retailers and manufacturers such as Costco, Goodyear, and Revlon have filed lawsuits arguing that the tariffs exceed presidential authority. Earlier rulings from the trade court and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit blocked most of the tariffs, and the U.S. Supreme Court is now reviewing the matter. Trump has publicly criticized the earlier decisions.In addition to Westercamp, Trump nominated Katie Lane to a federal district court in Montana, Sheria Clarke to a district court seat in South Carolina, and federal prosecutor Evan Rikhye to a 10-year term on the District Court of the Virgin Islands. All nominees must be confirmed by the Senate.Trump nominates White House lawyer to court hearing tariff cases | ReutersFormer CNN anchor Don Lemon is scheduled to appear in federal court in Minnesota to enter a plea related to charges stemming from his coverage of a protest at a St. Paul church. The protest targeted President Donald Trump's immigration enforcement surge in the state. Lemon, now an independent journalist, livestreamed the January 18 demonstration, which disrupted a worship service at Cities Church.Federal prosecutors charged him with conspiring to violate civil rights and with obstructing access to a house of worship under a statute also used in cases involving abortion clinic protests. His attorney argues that the prosecution infringes on Lemon's First Amendment rights and characterizes the case as an attack on press freedom. Trump publicly supported the charges, while Attorney General Pam Bondi stated that authorities would protect the right to worship without interference.The protest occurred during broader demonstrations against federal immigration actions in Minnesota, where thousands had gathered to oppose the crackdown. Lemon was seen on video speaking with activists before and during the disruption and interviewing participants and congregants inside the church. Another journalist, Georgia Fort, faces similar charges and has denied wrongdoing, stating she was reporting rather than participating.Journalist Don Lemon to enter plea in Minnesota ICE protest case | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Johann Sebastian Bach.Bach stands as one of the central figures of the Baroque era, revered for the structural clarity and spiritual depth of his music. Born in 1685 into a long line of musicians, Bach spent much of his career serving as a church organist and cantor in German cities such as Arnstadt, Weimar, and Leipzig. Though not widely celebrated outside musical circles during his lifetime, his reputation has since grown to near-mythic status. His compositions balance intellectual precision with emotional resonance, blending intricate counterpoint with lyrical expression.This week's closing theme is his Cello Suite No. 1 in G major, BWV 1007, likely composed around 1720 during his tenure in Köthen. The suite opens with one of the most recognizable preludes in all of classical music, built from flowing arpeggios that unfold with quiet inevitability. Written for unaccompanied cello, the piece demonstrates Bach's ability to imply harmony and depth through a single melodic line. The suite follows the traditional Baroque dance structure, moving from Prelude through Allemande, Courante, Sarabande, Menuets, and Gigue.For many listeners, the Prelude evokes clarity, order, and calm—qualities that make it a fitting close to the week. Its simplicity is deceptive; beneath the surface lies careful architecture and subtle harmonic movement. The work fell into relative obscurity until the twentieth century, when cellist Pablo Casals famously revived it and brought it to concert stages worldwide. Today, it remains a cornerstone of the cello repertoire and a touchstone of Baroque artistry. As a closing theme, it offers both reflection and renewal, ending not with flourish but with quiet confidence.Without further ado, Johann Sebastian Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 in G major, BWV 1007–enjoy!

In this episode of What's My Thesis?, ceramic sculptor and installation artist Liz Stringer joins the podcast for an in-depth conversation about sculpture, scale, and the body. Working primarily with ceramics, metal armatures, and welded structures, Stringer discusses how her practice emerged from a background shaped by medicine, illness, and early encounters with Roman, Gothic, and Baroque architecture. The conversation explores monumental ceramics, biopolitics, and public space, including Stringer's engagement with civic spectacle, parade structures, and collective ritual. Drawing on Enlightenment history, architecture, and lived experience, Stringer reflects on her recent MFA thesis work, which centers the viewer's body within installations addressing armor, metamorphosis, vulnerability, and systems of power.

M7 JESU, JOY OF MAN'S DESIRING, JS BACH, 1723, BWV 147 (2:56) M8 CHORALE PRELUDE “WACHET AUF”, JS BACH, 1731, BWV 140 (3:37) PROGRAM NOTES Johann Sebastian Bach was a German composer and organist from the late Baroque period. He was born in Eisenach, in what is now central Germany. Bach lived from 1685 to 1750, The Baroque period was a 150-year period in music, dating from 1600 to 1750. Baroque music is Western Classical Music that followed the Renaissance period. Baroque music features drama, ornamentation, major and minor tones, and was presented in new ways – – like the Opera, Concerto, and Sonata, Baroque composers included BACH, HANDEL, VIVALDI. M9 AIR ON A G-STRING, JS BACH, 1730, BWV 1068 (2:27). Bach probably used the CLAVICHORD to compose most of his music. The Clavichord is small, lightweight and would not disturb people. The clavichord was very temperamental, because it required tuning before each play, just like a violin or guitar.  The keyboard instruments of the day were referred to as a general category: the “KLAVIER”….these included HARPSICHORD, CLAVICHORD, ORGAN and PIANOFORTE. Bach's favorite KLAVIER instrument was the LAUTENWERK or LUTE HARPSICHORD with animal gut strings.  The writing of music was in support of GOD and KINGS. Over time, Baroque Music evolved into what is today known as the modern Orchestra. Bach was a prolific composer, writing hundreds of pieces for solo instruments, particularly the organ. He also wrote pieces for orchestra and choir. Bach is MOST known for writing two or more  melodies or voices against each other. Also called point against point, or, Counterpoint. Bit Bucket A BWV catalog number is a unique identifier for musical works composed by Johann Sebastian Bach, standing for Bach-Werke-Verzeichnis (Bach Works Catalogue).  Today I will present 9 compositions, dating from 1710 to 1731, during the time Bach was about age 25 to 45. M1 TOCCATA & FUGUE in C MAJOR M.2 ADAGIO, 1710-1717, BWV 564 (4:20) Our first piece — TOCATA & FUGUE in C MAJOR , the 2nd movement (ADAGIO). an ORGAN COMPOSITION.     It is taken from a 1959 album of BACH ORGAN WORKS   . The movement is called ADAGIO ….which indicates “At Ease”, or “Slow and Stately”. Tempo is only 66-76 BPM. like the resting heart rate for many people. Great liner notes. HERE IS AN  excerpt from the liner notes on that album – – QUOTE “OUR BACH” said the obituary notice, “was the greatest organ and clavier player that ever lived”. Though it may seem strange to us now, Bach's genius during his life was recognized only as a master of the organ—not as a composer. It was actually over a hundred years after his death that his works revealed him as a unique and mighty composer. His reputation as an organist brought many invitations to test new organs and advise on the construction of them.  UNQUOTE As with most of his organ works , there is no autograph or manuscript score from Bach, his organ work manuscript copies are lost.  This song has a CONCERTO style and rhythm.  We will hear the 2nd or ADAGIO movement. . It is all very calm and beautiful and pastoral and serene…until Bach pulls out all the stops in the last minute of this ADAGIO movement. He is really rocking the walls and windows of that church. Without any further adieu, here is TOCATA & FUGUE in C MAJOR , the 2nd movement (ADAGIO). PLAY M2 SHOW PLUG – DON'T TOUCH THAT DIAL ! That was…M2 MUSICAL CREDIT: This Bach organ work  was recorded on the Luneburg Organ at St. Johanniskirche, in the town of Luneburg, in northern Germany, the organist is Professor Michael Schneider. This LP was produced and released on the SOMERSET label here in the US in 1959 The album title is BACH The Majesty of the Luneburger Organ. M2 NUN KOMM DER HEIDEN HEILAND, JS BACH, 1714, BWV 61 (5:21) Our next piece is the most famous church cantata written in 1714 for THE FIRST SUNDAY IN ADVENT. NUN KOMM DER HEIDEN HEILAND or in English “NOW COME, SAVIOR OF THE HEATHANS” A HEATHAN is a person with no religion, i.e., a PAGAN. In this chorale, Jesus is asked to …  come and save the pagans.  In 1714, Bach would have been 29 years of age. It turns out that this song goes back almost two centuries before BACH's time.  It's based on a LUTERAN CHORALE with words written by Martin Luther for the 1523 first Advent Sunday.  For centuries, this was the first hymn for the first Sunday of ADVENT.  What I will play next is an arrangement for as modern symphony orchestra (the Philadelphia Orchestra) and it is definitely JS BACH heard in those phrases. But it is a large orchestra – – Conducted by Leopold Stokowski.  This is an extremely restrained, demure, and understated interpretation of a Bach piece the most restrained I have ever heard. The recording you will hear next is performed by the Philadelphia Orchestra, with conductor   Leopold Stokowski. This recording is on a Vinyl LP titled THE SOUND OF GENIUS, produced by COLUMBIA MASTERWORKS, in 1960. It was one of many records that were shipped by mail to members of the Columbia Record Club. My parents were enthusiastic members. A new disc would arrive in the mail every month, such as this LP of classical music.

ZAHN 1174 M3 TWO-PART INVENTION in F MAJOR, JS BACH, 1720-1723 (0:40) The next three pieces are called TWO PART INVENTIONS, composed by JS Bach around 1720   The inventions were composed for use in instruction of Bach's oldest son WILHELM FRIEDEMANN BACH who was 12 years old. Today, these inventions are introduced to music students in school grades 4-7. Learning the Two-Part Invention requires ROTE learning, practicing over and over until the two hands work completely independently of one another. The inventions teach, among other things, the use of COUNTERPOINT. Bach is MOST known for writing two melodies against each other. Also called point against point, or, Counterpoint. That is the feature of these inventions, in each one there are TWO PARTS, left and right hand parts. COUNTERPOINT is found mostly in Bach's FUGUES and in his INVENTIONS. Perhaps a brief demonstration is in order. Here is an excerpt from one of Bach's inventions. FIRST the right-hand part or first point – the melody SECOND the left-hand part or second point – the bass line LAST both parts played in counterpoint. In some of Bach works, the roles reverse, The left hand plays the first point – the melody And the right hand plays the second point – the bass line Could you do this by crossing hands on the keyboard – yes, but, the roles are reversed, so no cross-hand playing. I will now play  WENDY CARLOS's rendition of three BACH TWO-PART INVENTIONS from her 1969 recording titled “SWITCHED ON BACH” .. I will play all three, back-to-back.

Not just a key change like the work title would suggest ! Bach stated that he wrote his inventions “to be models of composition” in other words, to enable the student to form ways of developing musical ideas and “acquire a strong taste of composition” Bach wrote the inventions, one for of the notes A to G and one for each minor and major key.

This title comes from Johann Sebastian Bach's Orchestral Suite No. 3 in D major,  written almost 300 years ago.   So what is the meaning of the song title Air on a G-String? Well, Bach composed this as an orchestral suite in 1730. 141 years later, August Wilhelm arranged the second movement for SOLO VIOLIN and he did something unique. He transposed the song down from D so that the entire piece could be played on one string of the violin, the G-String, which is the lowest register on that instrument. Here is an example of what this sounds like on the Violin G-String, thjs example with piano accompaniment—pardon the scratchy sound, is from an old 78 RPM disc in 1935. Play example  – Jacques Dumont (Violin) Bach Air On The G String with Andre Collard (piano) We went from Bach's orchestral piece, to Wilhelm's transcription for solo violin, to Wendy Carlos modern interpretation with her MOOG Synthesizer.

Title: Baroque Voyages: On board the ship (What music did Sir Francis Drake dine to while circumnavigating the world?) Track: John Dowland, The Earle of Essex Galiard from Lachrimae, or Seaven Teares Artist: Fretwork Publisher: ℗ This compilation 1993 by EMI Records Ltd./Virgin Classics

The MusicaNova Orchestra presents its “Baroque to the Future” concert February 7th at Tempe Center for the Arts. The program features music by 19th through 21st century composers harkening back to the Baroque Era for inspiration. KBACH's Greg Kostraba recently chatted with conductor Warren Cohen and guest cellist and Valley native Peter Eom about the concert.

Yesterday, January 29th, was the 101st anniversary of the birth of the Canadian soprano (later mezzo) Lois Marshall. Marshall was in so many ways a unique and treasurable artist. Afflicted with polio as a young child, she spent much of her early life hospitalized. It was there that she discovered the expressive power of her singing voice. Following her training at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto, Marshall won two prestigious vocal competitions, including the Naumburg, she was taken on by such early mentors as Arturo Toscanini and Thomas Beecham and others. Audiences were captivated by both the spontaneity and directness of her artistry. Though she made occasional appearances in opera (and in particular televised opera, where her mobility issues could be more easily managed), she was primarily known as a concert singer. Recommended by the young Glenn Gould, she quickly became a favorite with Russian audiences and created the Canadian premieres of works by Poulenc and Britten, among others. This, the fourth Countermelody episode devoted to this artist, features her in a wide range of material, including in particular work by contemporary Canadian composers including Harry Somers, Oskar Morawetz, Srul Anthony Glick, Godfrey Ridout, Harry Freedman, and Jean Coulthard. The episode also emphasizes the purity and expressiveness of her singing in Baroque music, including Handel, Bach, Purcell, and Schütz as well as her unique way on the concert platform with both art song and folk song arrangements. Collaborating artists include Leopold Stokowski, Maureen Forrester, Glenn Gould, Seiji Ozawa, John Alexander, and Thomas Beecham. Once heard, Lois Marshall will never be forgotten. Countermelody is the podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and author yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

561 – Händel, politiek dier en geniaal musicus Zijn werken zijn al 300 jaar door en door politiek. De opera’s van Georg Friedrich Händel vertellen hoe heersers hun tijd en wereld domineren en hoe zij wijs, mild en rechtvaardig kunnen regeren. Maar ook hoe wreed, normloos en gewetenloos zij vaak zijn. Hoe ze mensen vertrappen, bedriegen en in het verderf storten. Dezer weken is Amsterdam Händel hoofdstad van Europa. Vooral ook door spectaculair optreden van een jonge wereldster die met Julius Caesar zo’n sluwe, wrede en machtige heerser vertolkt. Met deze Poolse countertenor, Jakub Józef Orliński, duiken Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger in de vele lagen van de meeslepende muziek van Händel (1685 - 1759). In diens tijdloze actualiteit en virtuoze diepte van zijn mensenkennis. Zijn 'Giulio Cesare in Egitto' blijkt een soort kabinetsformatie van twee machtsdieren uit de Oudheid: Cleopatra en Caesar. Een van die cynische, nobele en wrede verhalen over hoe macht, intriges en gerechtigheid met elkaar strijden om de voorrang in het geopolitiek geweld. Net als nu. Hier. Vandaag. *** Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken. Word ook vriend van de show!

By scrolling down, you will find a text in English. The conversation with Jakub Jozéf Orlínski starts at after about 36 minutes. *** Händel was een Europees fenomeen. Als jong musicus uit Halle in Saksen-Anhalt werd hij al bejubeld in Rome en Venetië. Hij reisde langs alle hoven en concertzalen en belandde in Londen, waar hij de beroemdste componist, organist én kunstpaus werd, ook die voor het koningshuis. Het koninklijk publiek verwachtte dan ook opera's met politieke boodschappen en portretten uit verhalen uit alle eeuwen en windstreken. En Händel leverde. Van stukken uit het oude Rome, Perzië, Mongolië en tot muziektheater dat speelt in de diepste middeleeuwen, aan de Olympus en vertelt uit ridderromans tijdens de Kruistochten. Jakub Józef Orliński levert niet minder. Hij vertelt over zijn visie op 'Cesare' als veroveraar en uitbuiter van het onmetelijk rijke Egypte. En als politiek, militair en amoureus veroveraar van Cleopatra. Die blijkt minstens zo'n politiek dier als hijzelf en heeft haar heel eigen agenda. In Händels beroemdste aria's en duetten ontdekken die twee in het Concertgebouw elkaars ambities, charmes, belangen en 'Wille zur Macht'. Ze sluiten een deal, alsof ze onderhandelen in Davos of Mar-a-Lago. Hij maakt haar Farao, in plaats van haar gemene broer. Zij baart hem de opvolger die hem ontbrak. Orlínski zong in januari bij de Nationale Opera nog een heel andere rol, die van de naïeve prins Athamas. Bij zijn feestelijke royal wedding slaan de wrede goden toe. Of zijn dat de spookbeelden van zijn bruid Semele? Is haar dromen van oppergod Jupiter als haar ware echtgenoot niet ook weer zo'n politiek fata morgana? Zo'n droom van tomeloze macht om te ontsnappen aan dit huwelijk? Desnoods een waaraan zijzelf en de brave Athamas ten onder gaan? Bij Händel draait het steeds weer om macht, wellust, sluwheid en de hoop op oprechte menselijkheid. Zijn opera's worden bevolkt door Poetins, Von der Leyens, Ruttes, Jettens en Wilders uit alle eeuwen. Orlínski droomt van sommige van die rollen voor zijn komende carrière, vertelt hij. Het gesprek met de Poolse barokster gaat over zijn avonturen op het wereldtoneel. De opening van de Olympiade in Parijs van 2024 bijvoorbeeld. Hoe was het om als verrassende breakdancer annex zanger twee miljard kijkers te veroveren, alsof hijzelf een Caesar van de muziek was? Wat maakt dat hij zo dol is op Amsterdam, maar niettemin één dagelijkse ergernis heeft? Orlínski blijkt een zanger die zijn vak buitengewoon professioneel uitdiept. "Ik heb wel zeven lange termijnprojecten voor mezelf en gezelschappen en operahuizen die ik zorgvuldig probeer uit te bouwen." Zo ontstond ook de tournee en straks in Warschau de opname van 'Giulio Cesare', een gedurfde stap. Maar hij noemt zich ook ‘een soort archeoloog’. Met zijn researcher speurt hij in archieven naar verloren gewaande muziek, opera's waarvan we alleen nog de naam kennen. Eén ontdekking van een vergeten stuk is zo'n toekomstproject dat hij hoopt te lanceren als nieuwe opera op het wereldrepertoire. Händels work is deeply political, already 300 years. Händels operas show how rulers dominate their age and world, how to be masters of wisdom, mildness and justice. But no less how cruel and merciless they can be, how they do not shrink to destroy people, fool and ruin them. These weeks Amsterdam is 'the George Frederic Handel capital of Europe'. Most of all thanks to the spectacular musical debut of a young global Baroque-star who will sing such a cunning, cruel and powerful ruler. Julius Caesar, no less. With worldwide recognized Polish countertenor, Jakub Józef Orliński, the hosts of the podcast 'Trusted Sources' look for the many layers of the fabulous music of Händel (1685 - 1759). His "Giulio Cesare in Eigtto' is an opera as a diplomatic summit of two political animals of the Ancient World, Cleopatra and Ceasar. A cynical, noble and cruel tale where power, intrigue and justice are combating for primacy in the geopolitical reality of the day. Like with us, now, here, in the present. Orlínski tells about his take on 'Cesare', the victor and exploiter of immensely rich Egypt. And the political, military and amorous conqueror of its Queen. Cleopatra proofs to be no less a political pro, having a cunning agenda of her own. In aria's and duets these two discover each others ambitions, interests, charms and ruthlessness. As if in Mar-a-Lago or in Davos they strike a deal in Amsterdams Concertgebouw. He makes her Pharao instead of her cruel brother, she bears him the dynastic successor he lacks. In the National Opera Jakub Józef Orliński also sings the naïve prince Athamas, whose exuberant 'Royal Wedding' is ruined by merciless 'divine intervention' of Jove, king of the Gods of Olympus. Is this real or a nightmare of his bride Semele? Is her dream of a God as Lover a way to escape, even as this destroys herself and Athamas' hope of love? Händels operas again and again adress the dilemmas of power, cruelty, lust, mercy and hope for humanity. They are filled with Putins, Melania's, Berlusconi's, Ursula von der Leyens, with you and me. Talking with Orlínski is sharing wonderful stories of his adventures on a world stage. His live role at the Olympics in Paris, watched by an audience of billions around the world. But getting soaking wet there while breakdancing through a French Renaissance aria. His bike in Amsterdam. His ambitions as "almost an archeologist of music", going through archives to dig up unknown diamonds of Baroque music, forgotten over 300 years. The young Pole is a deeply dedicated artist and we can only wish him to entrance audiences for many years with his focus on discoveries and a fresh approach to timeless art. *** Verder kijken Jakub Józef Orliński & Ensemble Fantasticus - Händel - Semele: Your Tuneful Voice | Podium Klassiek Jakub Józef Orliński - He Was Despised (Händel's Messiah) Jakub Józef Orlínski - Händel - Ombra mai fu Jakub Józef Orliński – Händel: "Pena tiranna" (Amadigi di Gaula) Jakub Józef Orlínski - Viens, Hymen - opening Olympische Spelen Parijs 2024 *** Verder luisteren 387 - Niets is zó politiek als opera - 100 jaar Maria Callas207 - Zomer 2021: Boekentips met Händel in London, the making of a genius43 - Kleine Mozart aan het Binnenhof in 1765346 - Beethoven: Alle Menschen werden Brüder!498 - Gustav Mahler en zijn tweede stad Amsterdam531 - Muziek en tirannie: de schrijnende actualiteit van Dmitri Sjostakovitsj 305 - Andrea Wulf, Hoe rebelse genieën eeuwen later nog ons denken, cultuur en politiek beïnvloeden488 - Het Congres van Wenen (1814-1815) als muzikaal feest én briljant machtsspel373 - Nederland en België: de scheiding die niemand wilde Hoe een opera België van Nederland afscheurde 200 - De Heerser: Machiavelli's lessen zijn nog altijd actueel*** Tijdlijn 00:00:00 – Deel 1: Georg Friedrich Händel 00:36:26 – Deel 2: Gesprek met Jakub Józef Orliński 01:07:05 – Deel 3: Gesprek met Jakub Józef Orliński 01:25:50 – Einde See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nous sommes au début du XVe siècle, à Bruxelles. C'est vers 1401-1402 que débutent les travaux de ce qui deviendra l'Hôtel de Ville. Chef d'œuvre de l'art gothique, il demeure l'un des symboles les plus éclatants du patrimoine bruxellois. Sa façade ciselée et sa tour dominant la cité, incarnent l'ambition architecturale et politique d'une ville en plein essor. Sa construction marque un tournant dans l'histoire de la ville, affirmant son statut de centre administratif, économique et culturel. Autour de lui, la Grand-Place a vu se développer un ensemble de guildes et de maisons marchandes, chacune ornée d'une façade baroque rivalisant de splendeur. Ce cœur historique, inscrit au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO, révèle une ville façonnée par le commerce, l'artisanat et une profonde tradition civique. Mais le patrimoine bruxellois ne se limite pas à son centre médiéval. Il s'étend aux quartiers Art nouveau où Victor Horta et ses contemporains ont transformé l'architecture en un art total. Il s'exprime aussi sur les grandes avenues tracées sous Léopold II, dans les bâtiments Art déco et les parcs aménagés durant l'essor urbanistique du XIXe siècle. Chaque bâtiment raconte une étape de son développement, une influence culturelle, un souffle artistique, mais aussi des blessures infligées par la spéculation immobilière, l'indifférence ou tout simplement l'air du temps. Du domaine de Laeken à Val Duchesse, de la Maison Erasme à l'Hôtel Solvay et quelques autres, revenons sur des histoires pleines de portiques, d'entablements, de corniches, de voûtes, de pilastres et surtout de murs porteurs.

Many aspects of Giovanni Battista Pergolesi's life seem relatively normal when it comes to composers of the Baroque era. He was prolific, died young, and his music became very famous only after his death. However, all three of these facts are complicated by the unique circumstances of Pergolesi's life. He was somewhat prolific, but dozens of pieces that were once attributed to him are no longer considered authentic, including much of the music that Igor Stravinsky made famous in his ballet Pulcinella. Pergolesi did not just die young; he died remarkably young, at the age of twenty-six, from tuberculosis. And the idea that he became famous only after his death actually made him unusual among composers of his time, when popularity during one's lifetime was the primary mark of success. Most composers quickly fell into obscurity after they died. In Pergolesi's case, the opposite occurred. There was a massive surge of interest in his music immediately after his death, which in some ways contributed to the museum-like atmosphere that classical music has today. Pergolesi was ahead of his time in many ways, and that brings us to the piece we are going to talk about today, his Stabat Mater. We will discuss what the Stabat Mater is in more detail later, but simply put, it is a musical setting of the poem Stabat Mater Dolorosa, which, in a rather clumsy translation, means "the sorrowful mother stood." This thirteenth-century Christian hymn and poem focuses on the Virgin Mary's suffering as she witnesses the crucifixion of Jesus. The text has been set to music by many composers, but Pergolesi's version, surprisingly given his relative obscurity today, has endured in a way that many settings by more famous composers have not. Today, on this Patreon-sponsored episode, we will learn a bit about Pergolesi's life, or at least what we know of it, and talk through this Baroque-era masterpiece. Join us!

Ready to dive headfirst into the trends shaping how we'll live, lounge and recharge in the seasons ahead? On this episode of I AM HOME, Tyler, Becca and Hilary unpack the trends shaping the future of home - from Pantone's very quiet 2026 Color of the Year (Cloud Dancer, really?) to bold design shifts that bring warmth, drama and intention back into our spaces. They cover everything from cozy warm minimalism and a Baroque-meets-Art-Deco revival to country estate vibes, immersive furniture with all the bells and whistles, as well as the growing push for fewer screens and more balance at home. With rich textures, grounding colors, retro influences and smart design that actually improves how we live, this episode goes beige to bold and beyond - proving that home life really should be your best life.  Resources: nfm.com/podcast

From traditional nomadic dwellings to state-of-the-art airports, through monumental temples and Baroque palaces to high-rise apartments and high-fashion boutiques, The Story of the Interior: How We Have Shaped Rooms and How They Shape Us (Thames & Hudson, 2025) by Professor Graeme Brooker explores an exciting array of inside spaces from around the world to reveal how the fundamental elements of a room have evolved and endured. Organized in three parts – The Room, The Private Interior and The Public Interior – the book presents a fascinating account of how the interior has been conceived and thought of from antiquity to the present day. By calling attention to the most basic elements of inside space – walls, doors, windows, furniture, ambience to name a few – this engaging exploration delves into how private and public interiors actively shape the way we live, work, learn and play. The book spans a wide range of iconic and offbeat examples drawn from the world of architecture, urbanism and furniture design, as well as art installations and imagined spaces. Brooker deftly guides us through interiors as diverse as Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater, Olafur Eliasson's The Weather Project, the Prada store in Marfa, Texas, and Sou Fujimoto's NA House, as well as the rock-cut Buddhist temples of India, medieval European castles and ancient Egyptian tombs, to unveil the drastically different and surprisingly similar spaces that surround us. The result is a fascinating tour of global interiors, tracing the genesis and evolution of these places and how they help us understand human presence and behaviour. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

The Basilica of St. Mary Institute for Faith and Culture Presents: Beauty and the Beast, an Exploration of the Power of Beauty, Part 5 of 5 With Fr. James Searby  In this final class of Beauty and the Beast, we look at the tale's two feasts to understand beauty as a path back to communion, meaning, and sacramentality. The tavern scene becomes a picture of the ego- loud, empty, and isolating, while "Be Our Guest" reveals what self-giving love looks like when a community pours itself out in joy. From there, Fr. James Searby explores the vocation of the artist, the vulnerability of real creativity, and the way beauty acts almost like a sacramental, opening the soul to grace. This class traces the larger cultural story as well, from the Baroque renewal of the Church to the rise of modernity and postmodernity, and finally to our quiet rediscovery of wonder today. Using the fairy tale as a map, the episode shows how the loss of beauty disfigures a culture and how its return restores the human heart. At its center is the conviction that beauty heals, reveals, and reunites, and that when we allow ourselves to receive it, the beast in all of us begins to become whole again.
