Gabriele Leucht und Marcus Weible stellen Werke aus verschiedenen Literaturgattungen und ihre musikdramaturgische Umsetzung in der Welt der Oper vor. In der siebten Folge der Rubrik “Literatur wird Oper” besprechen wir einen Roman des russischen Schriftstellers Jewgeni Samjatin. Die 1920 erschienene Anti – Utopie “WIR” gilt heute als Klassiker der Science Fiction Literatur und inspirierte so bedeutende Werke wie George Orwells “1984” und Aldous Huxleys “Schöne neue Welt”. Der Komponist Anton Lubchenko kam in seiner Schulzeit mit Samjatins düsterer Zukunftsvision in Berührung. Zusammen mit der Librettistin Darya Panteleeva schuf er eine beeindruckende musikalische Dystopie, die Anfang 2022 ihre Uraufführung am Stadttheater Regensburg erlebte. Anton Lubchenko (* 4.4.1985) ist einer der bedeutendsten zeitgenössischen russischen Komponisten. In gerade einmal 37 Lebensjahren hat er ein vielseitiges Werk geschaffen das sich von aktuell 9 Sinfonien, über 4 Opern, sowie zahlreiche weitere Stücke für Orchester-, Chor- und Filmmusik erstreckt. Er ist zudem ein weltweit gefragter Dirigent. Eine besondere Beziehung verbindet Lubchenko mit dem Stadttheater Regensburg. Dort wurde 2015 seine Oper „Doktor Schiwago“, basierend auf Boris Pasternaks berühmtem Roman, unter seiner Leitung uraufgeführt. Marcus Weible, geboren 1968 in München. Nach Abitur und Bundeswehr habe ich Geschichte und Rechtswissenschaften in Erlangen und Würzburg studiert. Ich war 15 Jahre als Rechtsanwalt und juristischer Repetitor bei Kern – Nordbayern tätig. In dieser Zeit bereitete ich bundesweit zahlreiche Studenten und Referendare auf das Erste und Zweite Juristische Staatsexamen vor. Mittlerweile lebe ich in Regensburg und gehe dort dem Anwaltsberuf mit Schwerpunkt im Verwaltungsrecht nach. Neben meinem Hobby Geschichte, sind und waren SF und Fantasy meine große Leidenschaft. Ich bin Mitglied des Münchner Fankreises „Die Phantasten“ und betätige mich auf mehreren Literaturseiten als Autor und Rezensent.” Gabriele Leucht, geboren: 1981 in München, Ausbildung: von den alten Sprachen bis zur Avvocatessa der Juristerei in Rosenheim, Birmingham, Maryland, Neapel, Straßburg und München. Interessen: Kunst, je abstrakter desto lieber, Literatur, besonders Romane und Dramen, Opern-Musik, fürs Herz italienisch, für den Rest auch alles andere, Politik: Grundgesetz-Fanatikerin, Antirassistin u.v.m., Sport: nicht ohne meine Berge.

Jamie's Farm supports vulnerable young people nationwide to thrive academically, socially and emotionally through a unique 5-day residential experience and follow-up programme. The programme is a blend of ‘Farming, Family, Therapy and Legacy' where children take on real jobs with purpose, punctuated with therapeutic support. The programme is in high demand and devliered at four rural farms across the country near Bath (HQ), Hereford, Monmouth and Lewes, alongside a city farm in Waterloo. Since the charity's inception in 2009, nearly 10,000 young people have been supported with evidence for fewer school exclusions, increased engagment at school, improved wellbeing and the development of essential life skills. Jamie graduated from the University of Edinburgh and taught History at Haling Manor School in Croydon from 2003. He worked in the Teach First office as part of the recruitment team from 2005 to 2008, focusing on the Jamie's Farm project during his holidays and weekends. Jamie now manages the farming, fundraising and finance functions of the charity, as well as driving our growth strategy. Jamie is committed to ensuring the Jamie's Farm experience is available to as many children as possible. His leadership has taken the organisation from occasional visits to his mother's smallholding in Wiltshire, through to being a nationally significant charity, running four residential farms and one city farm. He can often also be found alongside children on the farm that bears his name, delivering lambs and calves and demonstrating that there is nothing wrong with getting your hands dirty in the cause of Farming, Family and Therapy. Jake studied History at Cambridge University, before returning to his Birmingham roots to teach up the road from where he grew up as part of the Teach First Leadership Development Programme. He has also enjoyed teaching overseas, in Palestine and Ghana, and gained a distinction in his Masters in Educational Leadership from Warwick University. Jake joined Jamie's Farm in 2002 and has worked hard to ensure that as many children as possible get as great an impact as possible from our unique provision across all Jamie's Farms. This involves supporting the delivery teams at each location to maintain and improve our approach and ensuring the central machine at Jamie's Farm is well-run to enable our programme to be effectively delivered. It also includes a spot of river jumping with visiting children at our Hill House Farm HQ, which is unbeatable as a reminder of what the farm is all about. With his appointment as Co-CEO in early 2022 Jake will lead and develop all aspects of our work with children at Jamie's Farm while Jamie will focus on Fundraising and Farming.

Talk about problematic procrastination:  only twenty-three years AFTER they were first eligible to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, JUDAS PRIEST will FINALLY have their day!  Few bands in the history of metal have matched the long, prosperous, and influential career of JUDAS PRIEST, who have been collectively “screaming for vengeance” and “defending the faith” (as it were) for more than ½ a century, continuously honing, evolving, and intensifying their trailblazing, twin-guitar, “rapid fire” metal sound for over 50 years. For the sake of preventing our discussion from getting out of hand and turning into a 29.5-hour “megalathon” episode, we decided to break things up by decade, starting with the first full decade of the “Metal Gods”. Behold the transformative power of twanglification, cowbell, and harmonica. It's time to discover which Priest album has two names (Because “snowflakes” much?), find out what constitutes “the metal girl scent” (there's really, like, two “main ingredients”), enjoy a listener's “bucket list request” (oh we definitely gotta!) and JOIN US for an introduction to the legendary, twin-guitar metal attack hailing from Birmingham, England as we tour the 1970's with JUDAS PRIEST:  Volume 1.     Visit www.metalnerdery.com/podcast for more on this episode Leave us a Voicemail to be played on a future episode: 980-666-8182Metal Nerdery Tees and Hoodies – metalnerdery.com/merch and kindly leave us a review and/or rating on the iTunes/Apple Podcasts - Spotify or your favorite Podcast app Listen on iTunes, Spotify, Podbean, Google Podcasts or wherever you get your Podcasts.

After an extended hiatus — Brett Ballantini was unavoidably detained from minors talk — he and Darren Black hook up for a truly terrific Farm edition, featuring some stellar analysis from the latter and more awkward jokes from the former: Darren dismantles Brett's theory that Davis Martin in the bigs is simply another product of Tony La Russa's stubbornness Given Martin's stellar debut, what are his prospects going forward, overall and on the Stiever-o-Meter? Seriously, are the Johnny Cueto and Martin debuts a true achievement given the mid-AAA offense that Kansas City brings to the diamond? Is it time to panic over José Rodríguez, or is his hitting the wall something he can bounce right back off of? Darren explains why Oscar Colás isn't yet in Birmingham, and it has nothing to do with his play on the field Analyzing where Colás stands vis-a-vis 2023 on the South Side vs. Yoelqui Céspedes, who a month or two ago was the no-brainer pick for the Opening Day outfield Has any of the young arms trio in A-ball (Matthew Thompson, Drew Dalquist, Jared Kelley) distinguished themselves — and is it time to severely adjust expectations on any?
