Peter Bichsel (1935-2025) war ein bedeutender Schweizer Schriftsteller und Journalist, der als eine der wichtigsten Stimmen der modernen deutschsprachigen Literatur gilt. Bichsel wuchs in Olten auf und arbeitete zunächst als Volksschullehrer. Sein literarischer Durchbruch gelang ihm 1964 mit der Kurzgeschichtensammlung «Eigentlich möchte Frau Blum den Milchmann kennenlernen». Bichsel war bekannt für seinen einfachen, aber tiefgründigen Schreibstil und seine humorvollen, oft satirischen Erzählungen. 1970 war der damals 35-jährige Peter Bichsel zu Gast bei Roswitha Schmalenbach und sprach über sein Verhältnis zur Musik, wie er immer mehrere Tage hintereinander dieselbe Schallplatte hörte, wie er das Geigespielen hasste und warum er gehobene Unterhaltungsmusik nicht erträgt. Er erzählte auch, dass er keine Hunde mag, dafür die Musik von Gustav Mahler liebt. Aus Anlass des Todes von Bichsel am 15. März 2025 wiederholen wir die Sendung «Musik für einen Gast» mit ihm, die auf den Tag genau 55 Jahre vor seinem Tod stattgefunden hat. Die Musiktitel: 1. Julius Fučík - Der Einzug der Gladiatoren 2. Anton Webern – 5 Sätze, Op. 5 (Fassung Für Streichorchester): «1. Heftig bewegt» Die Zagreber Solisten / Antonio Janigro, Leitung 3. Walter Carlos - Switchd On Bach: «Prelude And Fugue No. 2 In C Minor» 4. Franz Schubert: Der Tod und das Mädchen: «3. Scherzo» Endres-Quartett 5. Gustav Mahler - Sinfonie Nr. 1 D-Dur. Titan: «2. Kräftig bewegt, doch nicht zu schnell» London Symphony Orchestra / Georg Solti, Leitung 6. Billie Holiday – Strange Fruit

We're wrapping up the Take 5 for another year and even though 2021 still kept a lot of us apart, these conversations helped me find a community again. Maybe they did for you, too. We connected a lot over Zoom, we bonded over the music that made us who we are today, and we learned a whole lot more; not just about the guests who joined us to Take 5, but also about the songs and artists they picked. Every year around this time I like to share my favourites. It's always hard to whittle it down, but in this episode you'll hear from the conversations that floored me when I had them, and still resonate with me now. From across the world, and many different personal stories, here are some of my favourite moments of the Take 5 this year. Billie Holiday - Strange Fruit (chosen by Shirley Manson) The Beatles - I Am the Walrus (chosen by Danny Elfman) The Beatles - Eleanor Rigby (chosen by Ruby Wax) Hot Chip - I Feel Better (chosen by Tony Armstrong) Björk - Hyperballad (chosen by Julia Stone) Go-Betweens- Your Turn My Turn (chosen by Lindy Morrison) The Supremes - Stoned Love (chosen by Billy Bragg) Beverly Glen-Copeland - Ever New (chosen by Sufjan Stevens and Angelo De Augustine)

“Say it loud – I´m black and proud”: der Song und Ausruf von James Brown 1967 war nicht der Anfang. Schon im Blues und Gospel wurde die Sehnsucht nach Freiheit und Gleichberechtigung der afroamerikanischen Bevölkerung besungen. Aber ab Mitte der 60er wurden die Lieder selbstbewusster und präziser. Aretha Franklin schuf Hymnen gegen Rassismus und für Gleichberechtigung mit „Think“ und „Respect“. In vielen Liedern wurde nicht mehr nur die Lage beschrieben, es wurde gefragt, gezweifelt, gefordert: „What´s going on?“ von Marvin Gaye und „Move on up“ von Curtis Mayfield. Peter Urban beschreibt im Gespräch mit Ocke Bandixen den Aufbruch und die Wurzeln der aktuellen Black Music.

A raíz de los acontecimientos de Estados Unidos como consecuencia de la muerte de George Floyd, este viernes nuestra hora de Radio 3 se viste de negro y se enriquece con toda la musicalidad que nos han proporcionado artistas de ese color de piel. Seres humanos con un talento asombroso que, a través de sus canciones, han denunciado y denuncian las injusticias raciales que algunos/as sufrieron y sufren en primera persona. Y escuchamos las voces de Nelson Mandela cuando dijo: "Nadie nace odiando a otro por su color de piel, origen o religión. La gente aprende a odiar pero si se puede aprender a odiar también se puede enseñar a amar"; de Martin Luther King al expresar: "Hemos aprendido a volar como los pájaros, a nadar como los peces. Pero no hemos aprendido el sencillo arte de vivir como hermanos" y de Jane Elliot (activista antirracismo y educadora) que, entre otras cosas, asegura que no nacemos intolerantes, que aprendemos a serlo y que solamente hay una raza en toda la Tierra que es la raza humana, de la que todos somos miembros.

Selvom Niels Skousen har baggrund som skuespiller i 1960ernes frodige undergrundsmiljø, gjorde han sig for alvor bemærket i 1971 som sanger og sangskriver med lp’en ‘Herfra hvor vi står'. Det blev tilskrevet Skousen Ingemann, som egentlig var et kollektiv, der senere kaldte sig Musikpatruljen. Efter en pause på en små tyve år vendte Skousen tilbage i triumf i 2002 med det Nikolaj Nørlund-producerede Dobbeltsyn. Siden er det blevet til yderligere fem albums i samme regi, der tilsammen har slået hans position som en af vor største sangskrivere fast.Playliste:Niels Skousen: Danmark keder sig (2019)  Ray Peterson: Tell Laura I Love Her (1960)Billie Holiday: Strange Fruit (1939)Jacques Brel: Le plat pays (1962)The Animals: House of the Rising Sun (1964)Donovan: The Universal Soldier (1965)The Beatles: A Hard Day’s Night (1964)The Rolling Stones: The Last Time (1965)Bob Dylan: Chimes of Freedom (1964)The Velvet Underground: There She Goes Again (1967)The Doors: Alabama Song (1967)MC5: Rambling Rose (inkl. introduktion ved JC Crawford) (1969)  John Lennon: God (1970)Røde Mor: Grillbaren (1973)  Leonard Cohen: Democracy (1992)C.V.

Rockhistorier markerer 50-året for den famøse revolte i maj 1968, hvor de parisiske studenter sammen med de franske arbejdere satte Paris på den anden ende, lammede Frankrigs infrastruktur og næsten væltede regeringen under ledelse af Charles de Gaulle. Næsten. Det lykkedes som bekendt ikke, men begivenhederne i de dage giver stadig ekko.Til lejligheden har Rockhistorier sammensat en række markante og slagkraftige sange fra de sidste små 80 år, der alle omhandler social uretfærdighed, racisme, oprør, optøjer og opfordring til modstand mod ’the Man’. Fra Billie Holidays ”Strange Fruit” til Kendrick Lamars ”Alright” kommes der godt rundt i genrer og tematikker i et hæsblæsende potpourri af lige dele indignation, vrede, eftertænksomhed og manen til kamp.Playliste:John Sinclair: ”5 Seconds” (1969)Antoine & Les Problèmes: Je dis ce que je pense et je vis comme je veux (1966)Billie Holiday: Strange Fruit (1939)Bob Dylan: The Lonesome Death of Hattie Caroll (1964)The Doors: Five to One (1968)The Rolling Stones: Street Fighting Man (1968)Gil Scott-Heron: The Revolution Will Not Be Televised (1971)Black Sabbath: War Pigs (1970)Marvin Gaye: What's Going On (1971)Neil Young: Revolution Blues (1974)The Wailers: Get Up, Stand Up (1973)N.W.A.: Fuck tha Police (1988)Tracy Chapman: Talkin’ ‘bout a Revolution (1988)Public Enemy: Fight the Power (1989)Rage Against the Machine: Killing in the Name (1992)Primal Scream: Accelerator (2000)M.I.A.: Paper Planes (2008)PJ Harvey: The Words That Maketh Murder (2011)Kendrick Lamar: Alright (2015)Woody Guthrie: Better World A-Comin’ (1944)

At the club Café Society in 1939, Billie Holiday would regularly send a hushed chill through the crowd with her celebrated rendition of a controversial song about lynching. In honor of the recent opening of the Legacy Museum in Alabama, highlighting slavery and lynching: this archival Fishko Files - with Lena Horne and others on the historic song "Strange Fruit."

Matt is back for this episode. The black flies are gone. The clover is growing slowly. Matt offers us an update on the little Sanderson. Phil is working from home full-time now and admits he may be procrastinating. He’ll tell us later about that. The intro gets real when Phil decides to talk ontology and epistemology. Apologies in advance for a few annoying glitches in the audio. We fixed it up for the main section. So take a peek-a-poo before you protest too much. Protest & Political Music - Part 1 (15:34) Matt & Phil take a look at music from the 1920’s to the 1970’s that had strong political themes. This isn’t a comprehensive exploration of the genre, but rather a selection of tunes and artists that had a significant social and cultural impact. Sometimes, as in the case of Lead Belly, the artists focused on have influenced generations of musicians. There’s no Dylan, but there’s some Dr. Martin Luther King.   A list of songs & artists discussed/played during in this episode: Lead Belly - Ain’t Gonna Study War No More (Down by the Riverside) (1940) Mamie Smith - Crazy Blues (1920) Mamie Smith - Harlem Blues (1935) Ma Rainey - Trust no Man (1926) Ma Rainey - See See Blue (1924) Elizabeth Cotten - Washington Blues and I’m Going Away (1965) Elizabeth Cotten - Freight Train (1956) Billie Holiday - Strange Fruit (1939) Sam Cooke - A Change is Gonna Come (1964) Pete Seeger - We Shall Overcome (1963) Buffalo Springfield - For What It’s Worth (1966) Lesley Gore - You Don’t Own Me (1963) Curtis Mayfield & The Impressions - People Get Ready (1965) Creedence Clearwater Revival - Fortunate Son (1969) Recommendations (1:11:41) Matt & Phil both recommend brews from Sleeman. It's Silver Creek for Matt, and Railside Session Ale for Phil. Both are low alcohol, loaded with just the right amount flavour and hops. Perfect for a warm summer afternoon after some heavy lifting (or a day of heavy podcasting). Cheers!
