Trong số các bản tình ca của Elvis Presley, nhạc phẩm « Are you lonesome tonight » có lẽ là giai điệu buồn và đẹp nhất. Vào đầu những năm 1960, sau hai năm thi hành nghĩa vụ quân sự, nam danh ca Elvis đã ghi âm lại bài hát này theo gợi ý của nhà quản lý Colonel Parker, đơn giản là vì vợ ông (bà Marie Mott) rất thích nghe bản nhạc này (phiên bản của Al Jolson), từng ăn khách nhiều năm trước đó Mặc dù đã được hoàn tất vào mùa xuân năm 1960, nhưng bản ghi âm « Are You Lonesome Tonight » của Elvis Presley lại bị hãng đĩa RCA « cầm chân », trì hoãn thời điểm phát hành đến hơn 6 tháng. Chủ yếu cũng vì ban giám đốc điều hành thời bấy giờ nghĩ rằng bản ballad này không phù hợp với hình ảnh và phong cách của Elvis, họ muốn anh hát nhạc rock để thu hút giới trẻ thay vì hát nhạc tình theo kiểu crooner, hợp hơn với lứa tuổi trung niên.Bất ngờ thay, khi được phát hành vào tháng 11 năm 1960, bài hát này thành công ngay lập tức trên thị trường Mỹ, đứng đầu bảng xếp hạng nhạc pop của Billboard, về hạng ba trong hạng mục R&B. Một tháng sau khi chinh phục Hoa Kỳ giai điệu này lại giành luôn ngôi vị quán quân tại vương quốc Anh và hạng đầu thị trường châu Âu.Có thể nói là « Are You Lonesome Tonight » là một bản nhạc xưa. Được nhóm sáng tác Tin Pan Alley (gồm các nhạc sĩ Roy Turk và Lou Handman) viết vào năm 1926, bản nhạc này đã thành công vang dội lần đầu tiên vào năm 1927 với bản ghi âm của Charles Hart. Hai thập niên sau, bài hát « Are You Lonesome Tonight » ăn khách một lần nữa với Harry Freidman, ca sĩ chính của dàn nhạc Blue Barron và nhất là phiên bản của nam danh ca Al Jolson, với giọng đọc khá truyền cảm thay vì giọng hát ở trong đoạn giữa.Khi cover lại bài hát này, Elvis có lẽ đã muốn chiều ý nhà quản lý của anh là Colonel Parker. Lúc đầu, ông chỉ yêu cầu anh hát thử, nếu không thích thì không cần phải thu thanh, nào ngờ lối hát thần sầu của Elvis lại nâng bản nhạc này lên một tầm cao mới, có phần vượt trội so với các phiên bản trước. Đoạn khó nhất đối với Elvis là phần độc thoại khi anh mô tả mối tình như một vở kịch ba màn, yêu nhau trong màn đầu, bẽ bàng khổ đau trong màn hai, để rồi chia tay nhau trong màn cuối. Khi vở kịch buông màn, cũng là lúc tình yêu đã đi vào hồi kết, sân khấu cô đơn trống rỗng để lại trong màn đêm một dấu chấm hết. Tuy không phải là sở trường so với giọng hát, nhưng giọng nói của Elvis trong phần thoại lại đầy sức thuyết phục.Ông hoàng Elvis đã ghi âm bản nhạc này tại Studio B ở Nashville vào đầu tháng 04/1960. Tuy nổi tiếng là một ca sĩ nhạc rock, nhưng vào thời bất giờ anh đang chuyển sang ghi âm những bài hát xưa, điển hình là bài hát rất ăn khách của anh trước đó « It's Now Or Never » được phóng tác từ giai điệu « O Sole Mio », và sau đó đến bài « Surender » (Torna a Surriento/Trở về mái nhà xưa trong tiếng Việt) cũng như bài « No more », chuyển thể từ « La Paloma », khúc đàn Tây Ban Nha nổi tiếng trong làng nhạc cổ điển.Bản thân danh ca Elvis thích sự chuyển hướng này trong sự nghiệp của mình, xem đó là cơ hội để mở rộng tầm nhìn, thử hát nhiều thể loại âm nhạc khác nhau. Điều mà ban giám đốc điều hành hãng đĩa RCA lo ngại, rốt cuộc đã không xảy ra. Dù bị dời lại hơn nửa năm, nhưng đến khi được phát hành, « Are You Lonesome Tonight » lại giúp cho Elvis chinh phục được thêm nhiều thành phần người hâm mộ mới (thế hệ trên 35 tuổi), mà vẫn giữ lại hầu hết những người yêu mến chất giọng của Elvis (chủ yếu là giới trẻ) luôn trung thành với giọng ca này từ lúc anh mới vào nghề.Cũng như bài hát « Will you still love me tomorrow » (Mai có còn yêu em) của Carole King đã cho ra đời nhiều bản nhạc hồi âm như « Tomorrow & Always » (Yêu đến ngàn sau), phiên bản của Elvis « Are You Lonesome Tonight » sau khi thành công, đã có ít nhất 5 ca khúc đối đáp của những giọng ca nữ khác nhau được tung ra thị trường. Đó là trường hợp của Dodie Stevens, Linda Lee, Ricky Page, Thelma Carpenter và Jeanne Black.Các giọng ca nữ này đã hồi âm Elvis khi cho phát hành nhạc phẩm mang tựa đề « Yes, I'm lonesome tonight » (Vâng em cô đơn đêm nay) giữ nguyên giai điệu nhưng thay đổi lời hát. Ngoài ra, cũng có một bài hát thứ nhì với góc nhìn khác mang tên là « Oh, how I miss you tonight » (Đêm nay sao quá nhớ anh).Tuy được đề cử đi tranh giải Grammy trong hạng mục bản ghi âm xuất sắc nhất, nhưng bài hát của Elvis rốt cuộc lại nhường hạng đầu cho nhạc phẩm « Georgia On My Mind » của Ray Charles. Dù vậy bài hát này lại rất thành công trên thị trường và sau Elvis, đến phiên nhiều nghệ sĩ quốc tế ghi âm lại bài này như Frank Sinatra, Connie Francis, Doris Day, Bobby Solo …Gần một thế kỷ sau ngày ra đời, giai điệu « Are You Lonesome Tonight » tính đến nay đã có gần cả ngàn phiên bản trong 16 thứ tiếng. Trong tiếng Việt, bài này có nhiều lời khác nhau. Lời đầu tiên « Tình bơ vơ » của tác giả Trầm Tử Thiêng do Elvis Phương ghi âm. Lời thứ nhì « Đêm Buồn » của tác giả Nguyễn Hoàng Đô qua phần trình bày của các nghệ sĩ Thanh Duyên hay Quỳnh Dao, lời thứ ba « Em còn cô đơn tối nay » được nhiều nguồn ghi chép là do Trung Hành tự đặt lời và ghi âm.« Are You Lonesome Tonight » là một trong những bài hát buồn và đẹp nhất từng được viết. Theo bảng xếp hạng (năm 2008) của tạp chí Billboard, bản nhạc này đứng hạng thứ 81 trên danh sách 100 bài hát hay nhất mọi thời đại. Tưởng chừng nhân vật trong bài hát thầm hỏi người yêu, nhưng thực ra lại tự hỏi lòng : có ai nào ngờ đâu, tấn trò đời sân khấu. Yêu ngay từ lúc đầu, trao ánh mắt cho nhau. Nhưng không hiểu vì sao, tình lạc lối đêm thâu. Cho cô đơn buông màn, tim ngập tràn nỗi đau.

Book Vs. Movie “Musicals in March” The 1911 Novel The Phantom of the Opera Vs the 2004 Joel Schumacher FilmThe Margos close out “Musicals in March” with one of the most popular musicals of all time--The Phantom of the Opera. Originally created in 1911 by French journalist and bon vivant Gaston Leroux, the story is based on stories about the Paris Opera in the 1800s which include hauntings aplenty. His creation is about Phantom Erik (!) who is an “Opera Ghost” madly in love with soprano Christine. The complicated tale of Christine, the “Angel of Music,” her childhood friend Raoul, a performance of Faust, and flooding in the basement of the Palais Garnier involves love, intrigue, some objectification, and imprisonment. The 1925 movie starring Lon Chaney just barely scratched the surface so we turn to the unofficial King of Musicals--Andrew Lloyd Weber who along with lyricist Charles Hart created one of the most successful productions in Broadway and West End history. The 2004 film was directed by the late Joel Schumacher. It's lush, gorgeous, and filled with talented actors. So, between the original story and the 2014 musical adaptation--which did we prefer? In this ep the Margos discuss:The author Gaston LerouxParis in the early 20th Century The differences between the novella and musicalThe cast includes Gerard Butler (The Phantom,) Emmy Rossum (Christine,) Patrick Wilson (Raoul,) Minnie Driver (Carlotta,) Simon Callow (Gilles,) and Victor McGuire (Ubaldo.)

In 1894, searchers in Paulding, Ohio found the gruesome charred and mutilated remains of two children that had gone missing the day before. Within two hours, the sheriff arrested a slow-witted boy who lived near the crime scene. More than a century after his conviction and hanging, some wonder, was he guilty? www.ohiomysteries.com feedback@ohiomysteries.com www.patreon.com/ohiomysteries www.twitter.com/mysteriesohio www.facebook.com/ohiomysteries Music: Pining, by Gretchen Pleuss with Adam Reifsnyder.

A new MP3 sermon from Cornerstone Church is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Praising the God of Meekness and Majesty Speaker: Charles Hart Broadcaster: Cornerstone Church Event: Sunday Service Date: 11/29/2020 Bible: Psalm 113 Length: 37 min.
Afternoons Live with Tyler Axness welcomes Charles Hart to the show. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This is part 2 of a discussion of how David Hart came to be an advocate for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Part 2 details how his brother, Christopher, was given a seat in the Melrose public school system. This seat only was given because of the fierce advocacy of his father, Charles Hart. Charles founded the parent's advocacy group CCMR (Concerned Citizens for the Mentally Retarded) in 1974 after connecting with parents from neighboring towns that also needed services for their children. Christopher lived at home until he was around 11 years old, then went to Hogan Regional Center to live. Hogan was a center of excellence and Christopher received amazing care, love and support. Although Christopher was safely placed, the advocacy for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities continued through CCMR, Charles and David Hart.
This podcast chronicles the beginning of a parent's advocacy organization that was incorporated in 1974 as the Concerned Citizens for the Mentally Retarded; now known as "CCMR". CCMR was founded by Charles Hart and a group of parents from the former Hogan Berry Parents Association. Charles was a fierce advocate for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities as a result of having a son, Christopher, with profound mental retardation who subsequently became medically fragile. CCMR advocated both locally and nationally for the rights of a segment of the population that is often forgotten. This two part interview is with David Hart who at 19 sat in on an ISP (Individual Service Plan) meeting for his brother Christopher. Christopher was at the time nonverbal, medically fragile and living in Hogan Regional Center in Danvers. David became interested in advocacy as a result of this ISP meeting. Because the representatives from Hogan were talking about Christopher in the first person - explaining to David and his parents what Christopher likes, wants and feels. Which made David ask the pivotal question "When did Christopher start talking"?
Charles Hart, who is an attorney in Orlando, Florida, and chairman of the Republican Party in Orange County joins host Stephen Strang to discuss the significance of Bernie Sanders dropping out of the race for the 2020 Democratic Party presidential nominee and how the coronavirus will affect the election.
It’s a Double Feature Week on Pod Sematary! Chris & Kelsey decide whether or not to check the children in this urban-legend-turned-feature-film combo recommended by listener Alex! The Original: When a Stranger Calls (1979) “A psychopathic killer terrorizes a babysitter, then returns seven years later to menace her again" (IMDb.com). It’s everyone’s favorite UL: The Babysitter and the Man Upstairs! Plus, we talk way too much about gender dynamics and dating. The Remake: When a Stranger Calls (2006) “During a babysitting gig, a high-school student is harassed by an increasingly threatening prank caller" (IMDb.com). In 1979, Fred Walton added about 70 or so minutes of content to a 20-minute concept to make a pretty awesome film; in 2006, Simon West tried to get about the same length without adding ANYTHING. It goes about as well as you could expect. Get more at podsematary.com!

N’ayant lu que quelques tomes, je ne suis pas un aficionado du Disque-Monde. Mais j’ai toujours aimé l’homme, l’artiste, l’activiste. Une émission sur Sir Pratchett s’imposait donc, comme on l’avait promis dans le pilote sur Gaiman. C’est chose faite. Vu le nombre de bouquins que compte le cycle, le DM prendra une part majoritaire de ce double-épisode. Ce qui ne nous empêchera pas de d’évoquer toutes les œuvres et tous les engagements de l’auteur, avec un trio d’invités aussi choupi que connaisseurs. Invités : Aude, assistante d’édition, étudiante en Master 2 “Métiers de l’Édition” à l’Université de Strasbourg, autrice du mémoire Voyage à travers la Fantasy | Page d'Aude sur le site du Master Élisa, coach en développement personnel, Maître Reiki et animatrice du podcast DevPerso | www.rayonne.net | Page Facebook Jean-Baptiste, coanimateur du podcast Outrider et ingénieur son et image chez French Wargame Studio | Twitter de JB | Twitter d'Outrider | Facebook d'Outrider | Facebook du French Wargame Studio Liens : Paul E.

Par la suite, même s'il y a quelques révélations côté coulisses, c'est une succession de petites anecdotes plutôt cools et des réflexions de l'auteur, Craig Cabell (qui connaissait un peu Terry, manifestement). Mais on ne peut pas dire que j'ai trouvé ces dernières très intéressantes. Je regrette pas mal qu'il en fasse des caisses sur Tiphaine Patraque, et qu'il ne dise quasiment rien sur le Guet, par exemple. Si vous êtes fan et que vous lisez l'anglais, ça ne vous prendra pas bien longtemps, le bouquin ne faisant que 250 pages. Mais autant écouter le podcast ! Bien plus utile et bien plus enrichissant,

The PHANNNNTOM OF THE OPERA IS HERE inside our mics *organ theme*...we know you sang it. Join the Broadway Babies in part two of the MEGA musical that everyone thinks is an opera! In this segment, Alex and Daisha talk about how Phantom of the Opera uses elements of actual opera on the stage and in the music, and we discuss our favorite elements of the musical. We also chat about the lucrativeness of the franchise and wrap it up with our pros and cons.

Released by Really Useful Group Ltd. Show Notes: Learn about the Palais Garnier — the real Parisian opera house that inspired “Phantom of the Opera” and that Hal Prince visited Lindsey Ellis’ history lesson about the character of the Phantom post-ALW Another session of the infernal court in Musical Hell: the movie version of “Phantom of the Opera” “Home” from “Phantom” by Maury Yeston and Arthur Kopit Snippets of opera ALW probably drew inspiration from: Hannibal seems to be based on Aida’s extra-ness. General exoticism and grand staging and costumes in opera. The Il Muto scenes Laughing choruses in opera such as Verdi’s Falstaff and Mein Herr Marquis from Die Fledermaus. A young girl dressed as a cheeky boy or young man is pretty standard. A pretty standard example this scene was taken from is The Marriage of Figaro, and opera by Mozart with a silly and smitten young man named Cherubino and the cunning Countess he is in love with. Phantom sort of combines Susanna and Cherubino and makes it his own.
Listeners, we have gone past the point of no return in this TWO-PART, MEGA MUSICAL EPISODE!!! Masks will be ripped off, costumes will be grand, and chandeliers will swing in this musical spectacular. This week, the Broadway Babies jump in, lassos spinning, to rein in the king of MEGA musicals: The Phantom of the Opera.

Hosts Briana Phipps, Timothy Rodriguez and James Lott Jr. discuss the theatre show of The Phantom Of The Opera. The Phantom of the Opera is a musical with music by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by Charles Hart with additions from Richard Stilgoe. Lloyd Webber and Stilgoe also wrote the musical's book together. Based on the French novel Le Fantôme de l'Opéra by Gaston Leroux, its central plot revolves around a beautiful soprano, Christine Daaé, who becomes the obsession of a mysterious, disfigured musical genius living in the subterranean labyrinth beneath the Palais Garnier. The musical opened in London's West End in 1986, and on Broadway in 1988. It won the 1986 Olivier Award and the 1988 Tony Award for Best Musical, and Michael Crawford (in the title role) won the Olivier and Tony Awards for Best Actor in a Musical.

Almost as soon as there were radio stations, there were college radio stations. In 1948, to popularize FM radio, the FCC introduced class D non commercial education licenses for low-watt college radio stations. By 1967, 326 FM radio signals in the United States operated as “educational radio,” 220 of which were owned and operated by colleges and universities. The type of programming that these stations offered varied widely, from lectures and sporting events, to various kinds of musical shows, but toward the late 1970s, a new genre of college rock appeared on the scene. Record labels took note as college DJs discovered up-and-coming new artists, although they sometimes stopped playing those artists once they made it big.Joining this week's episode is historian Dr. Katherine Rye Jewell, a Professor at Fitchburg State University and author of Live from the Underground: A History of College Radio.Our theme song is Frogs Legs Rag, composed by James Scott and performed by Kevin MacLeod, licensed under Creative Commons.
