From emotional exchange to structural storytelling, this episode is a fresh take on a classic technique—with some interval theory magic sprinkled in.
DescriptionThe Fugue: Discipline, Drama, and Design in 60 Seconds. Take a minute to get the scoop!Fun FactBach's The Art of Fugue was left unfinished at his death, ending abruptly mid-piece. Legend claims he was working on a final fugue spelling his own name in musical notes—B-A-C-H. Whether intentional or not, the idea feels fitting: a composer signing off using pure musical design.About Steven, HostSteven is a Canadian composer & actor living in Toronto.

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. Without further delay here is NOW COME, SAVIOR OF THE HEATHANS PLAY M1 SHOW PLUG – SHOW PLUG – DON'T TOUCH THAT DIAL ! !

Album: The Sound of Genius Limited Edition LP (1960) Members Only ! Label: Columbia Master Works BIT BUCKET This piece also is based on a song listed in the ZAHN Lutheran chorales catalog. 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. Each one is short – – average length ONE MINUTE EACH!

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. Today these inventions are over 300 years old !

He was 37. The title page to the Well-tempered Clavier song book reads : “The well-tempered Clavier, or Preludes and Fugues, through all the tones and semitones, both the [major] and [minor]. For the profit and use of the studious musical young…” Bach wrote these preludes and fugues in all keys in the chromatic scale … 12 major and 12 minor keys I have the version in D MAJOR. It's two sections – the prelude, and the fugue The Prelude is the introduction. LISTEN FOR the Stride Piano on the left hand !! It's a short 1:10. The Fugue is the second section.

This was written for the Christian Feast of the Visitation- celebrated at the end of May in Western Christianity. The song is a Lutheran hymn. … a CANTATA and it has a CHORALE or chorus piece repeated twice within this cantata. There are many arrangements and versions because this song is one of Bach's most beautiful, well-known, and popular.

This hymn was transcribed from a Lutheran hymn written in 1599 by written by Phillippe Nicolai. This Cantata is truly a work from the middle ages. In 1731, Bach took this hymn and created a 7-movement cantata, we will hear the first movement or PRELUDE”. This cantata is sung in church on the Trinity Sunday. Today this piece is very popular piece in general…it is POPULAR CLASSICAL MUSIC. J.S. Bach wrote 46 of these cantatas for church, in all. ODD FACT about this song… it was performed only once by Bach, in Leipzig that year.

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. Now here is Wendy Carlos' arrangement of Air on a G String, from her debut album, SWITCHED-ON BACH, in 1968. PLAY M9 SHOW PLUG – DON'T TOUCH THAT DIAL !

Most of us spend some part of our lives feeling bad about ourselves and wanting to feel better. But this preoccupation is a surprisingly new one in the history of the world, and can largely be traced back to one man: a rumpled, convertible-driving California state representative named John Vasconcellos who helped spark a movement that took over schools, board rooms, and social-service offices across America in the 1990s. This week, we look at the rise and fall of the self-esteem movement and ask: is it possible to raise your self-esteem? And is trying to do so even a good idea?Special thanks to big thank you to the University of California, Santa Barbara Library for use of audio material from their Humanistic Psychology Archives and to their staff for helping located so many audio recordings.

Counterpoint is the “huge topic” that crowns the Neapolitan method and the Paris Conservatoire tradition—and yet it's often taught today in ways that leave students confused, discouraged, and musically disconnected. In this Counterpoint Panel, I'm joined by: • Robert O. Gjerdingen (Author of "Music in the Galant Style", "Child Composers") • Peter van Tour (Author of "Counterpoint and Partimento") • Job IJzerman (Author of "Harmony, Counterpoint, Partimento") We talk about how counterpoint was introduced to each of them, why modern harmony courses often set students up for failure, and why “rules on paper” don't work without singing, playing, and real stylistic vocabulary. We also tackle: • Why counterpoint matters (and what it actually trains) • The truth about Fux and why the “species-only” pipeline so often collapses • Why asking students to “write like Bach” can be a disaster—and what to use instead • Whether everyone needs to write a fugue • What “written counterpoint” training should look like when students already have practical skills • Counterpoint's future: horizontality, melody-making, and creative freedom • If you teach, study, or care about the old training paths (solfeggio → partimento → counterpoint), this episode completes the trilogy. Subscribe for more interviews & deep dives into partimento, improvisation, historical pedagogy, and musicianship.

Terwijl de Venezolaanse president Maduro wordt voorgeleid in de rechtbank van New York springen beleggers massaal op Amerikaanse olieaandelen. Die bedrijven gaan de ingestorte olie-infrastructuur van Venezuela weer opbouwen, belooft Trump, en daarmee heel veel geld verdienen. Beleggers hebben daar dus wel vertrouwen in. Of dat optimisme zich kan uitbetalen, bespreken we deze aflevering. Daarin hoor je ook over Samsung, dat de strijd aangaat met Apple. Het bedrijf gaat zijn productie van AI-smartphones verdubbelen dit jaar. Dus als jij op Android draait en AI wil gebruiken, moet je bij Samsung zijn, is de boodschap. Of het die race ook kán winnen, gaan we uitzoeken. Hoor je ook nog waarom de AEX het jaar zo lekker begint, waarom beleggers vandaag op Novo Nordisk duiken en hoe TomTom weer een sexy techaandeel kan worden.

In this "Point–Counterpoint" episode, we are joined by coaches from two teams—Sharman Ultra (Ian Sharman & Ellie Greenwood) and Giddy Up Ultra (Jeff Browning & Trish Ahrens)—to debate hot-button trail topics. They tackle gadgets vs. going by feel (most land on the fence, with Scott pledging a watch-free run), active recovery vs. full rest (consensus: gentle movement wins "if done well"), and competition/professionalization vs. community (community edges out, though competition drives innovation and visibility). A rapid-fire round on race fees concludes that higher prices can be worth it when safety, marking, and aid are rock solid, but swag bloat and accessibility are real concerns. Throughout, the value of a coach emerges as a recurring theme—helping athletes tailor decisions to personality, history, and goals. Episode Sponsors Janji, Use code TRAILRUNNER for 10% off NEW!

He Beat Cancer… Then Tagged a 201 4/8" Illinois Giant | 100% Wild Podcast ep.440 Adam Locke joins Matt and Tim from the “Land of Lincoln” with a raw story that starts in a doctor's office and ends with a 201 4/8" Illinois buck on the ground. Adam walks through the pain that led to a testicular cancer diagnosis, surgery, recovery, and how faith, family, and deer season pulled him forward. He breaks down the hunt—late-October conditions, access, wind, doe groups, and how he stayed in the game a month and a half after surgery. The guys also kick around how modern tech changes hunter efficiency, swap Cardinal baseball memories (spot the Bottomland Cards hat), shout out the Rat Pack, and flag a limited deal on the Stealth Cam Spectre 4K.

They had to feel their way through the parts. Imagine performing complex interwoven melodies… by ear! It wasn't until the 13th century that rhythmic notation caught up. Until then, performances were part skill, part educated guess.About Steven, HostSteven is a Canadian composer & actor living in Toronto.

Los smartphones han dejado de sorprender como hace una década, pero siguen marcando nuestro día a día. Hoy repaso su evolución reciente, las apuestas que intentan revitalizar el mercado y qué lugar ocuparán en un futuro dominado por nuevos dispositivos.BLOQUE 1: El presente de los móviles en 2025: plegables, modulares y gama altaEn 2025, los smartphones se han estabilizado tecnológicamente: los modelos de gama alta ofrecen cámaras espectaculares, pantallas brillantes y chips cada vez más eficientes, pero pocas sorpresas. El mercado premium sigue liderado por gigantes como Samsung, Apple y Google, con terminales que superan con holgura los 1.200 €. Sin embargo, muchos usuarios ya perciben que las diferencias de un año a otro son mínimas, lo que ha ralentizado el ritmo de renovación.BLOQUE 2: Estancamiento y cambios en el consumoEl estancamiento en las cifras de ventas es un hecho. Según los últimos datos de IDC y Counterpoint, las ventas mundiales de smartphones llevan tres años estabilizadas, con una ligera caída en mercados maduros como Europa o Estados Unidos. Cada vez más consumidores alargan la vida de sus terminales, motivados por la mejora de las actualizaciones de software, la durabilidad de los dispositivos y el alto coste de los nuevos modelos.BLOQUE 3: ¿Un futuro post-smartphone? Wearables y realidad aumentada al asaltoEl gran interrogante es si el smartphone seguirá siendo el rey en la próxima década. Las grandes tecnológicas ya están preparando alternativas. Apple, Meta o Samsung apuestan por las gafas de realidad aumentada, con la idea de que sustituyan, al menos en parte, las funciones del móvil. El objetivo es pasar de mirar una pantalla en la mano a una experiencia inmersiva y contextual en la vida diaria.También puedes escuchar nuestro podcast tecnológico Diario en Movimiento de lunes a viernes.

The Bosnian War in the early 1990s was at the time the bloodiest conflict on European soil since World War II. Some 100,000 people were killed and more than 2 million displaced amid widespread ethnic cleansing and massacres. In 1995, the warring parties struck a power-sharing deal in negotiations just outside Dayton, Ohio, in what came to be known as the Dayton Accords. But the deal didn't really resolve the underlying problems. Bosnia continues to be plagued by ethnic division, and the country's political structure is widely seen as ineffective and unstable. Welcome to Counterpoint. On each episode, we look at one pressing question facing world leaders—from two opposing points of view. In our season finale, we're tackling the question: Did the Dayton Accords set Bosnia up for failure? Arguing that the agreement put Bosnia on a path to perpetual crisis is Jasmin Mujanović, a senior nonresident fellow at New Lines Institute. He is the author of two books, Hunger and Fury: The Crisis of Democracy in the Balkans and The Bosniaks: Nationhood After Genocide. And making the case that the Dayton Accords were essential to bringing peace and maintaining stability is Chris Hill. A career diplomat, Hill was part of the U.S. delegation that brokered the agreement. Most recently, he served as the U.S. ambassador to Serbia under President Joe Biden.

The United States and China took a step back this week from their trade war, announcing that tariffs imposed just a few weeks ago would be slashed significantly—at least for now. But even as the tension seems to be ebbing, some people in the United States are questioning whether it's beneficial for the two economies to be intertwined at all. Welcome to Counterpoint. On each episode, we look at one pressing question facing world leaders—from two opposing points of view. Today, we're tackling the question: Should the United States completely decouple from China? With us to make the case for a tough stance against China is Derek Scissors, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and the chief economist of the China Beige Book. He is also the author of the China Global investment Tracker. Arguing that broad decoupling won't work to counter China is Lizzi C. Lee. She's a fellow on Chinese economy at the Asia Society Policy Institute's Center for China Analysis. Counterpoint is a production of Foreign Policy, in partnership with the Doha Forum.

Hour 3 of the Killer B's with Joel Blank, and Jeremy Branham! This hour included... A pushback to the data on the Rockets being better without Jalen Green The worst takes of the week got roasted during Bad Take BLVD PLUS, our Car Wrecks of the Day!
The Trump administration has moved quickly to dismantle the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), which oversees U.S. aid around the world, with major repercussions for food supplies, child poverty, pandemic prevention, and much more. The decision has hit Africa particularly hard. African countries were getting about about 30 percent of U.S. foreign aid annually. While many people in Africa are deeply worried about the cuts, some are wondering if the end of USAID might present an opportunity for the continent. Welcome to Counterpoint. Each week, we look at one pressing question facing world leaders—from two opposing points of view. On this episode, we're tackling the question: Is Western aid helping or harming Africa? With us to argue for the importance of continuing Western aid to Africa is Ndidi Nwuneli, the president and CEO of the ONE Campaign, a global advocacy organization focused on ensuring economic opportunity and healthier lives in Africa. And making the case that aid has caused more problems than it has solved is Ken Opalo, an associate professor at Georgetown University's School of Foreign Service specializing in African politics and development. Counterpoint is a production of Foreign Policy, in partnership with the Doha Forum. The show is hosted by Sasha Polakow-Suransky. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
South Korea has long relied on the United States for deterrence against its nuclear-armed neighbor, North Korea. But since his reelection, U.S. President Donald Trump has raised questions about Washington's core commitments around the world. He and members of his cabinet have suggested Washington might withdraw from the Korean Peninsula altogether, or make Seoul pay billions for the defense the U.S. provides, including a nuclear umbrella against Pyongyang. As a result, a majority of Koreans now want the country to develop its own nuclear arsenal. This week on Counterpoint, we tackle the question: Should South Korea develop nuclear weapons? Arguing in favor is Jennifer Lind, an associate professor of government at Dartmouth College and the author of the forthcoming book, Autocracy 2.0: How China's Rise Reinvented Tyranny. Making the case against Seoul developing its own nuclear weapons is Lami Kim, a professor at the Daniel K. Inouye Asia-Pacific Center for Security Studies in Honolulu and the former director of the Asian studies program at the U.S. Army War College.

After Ben's interview with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Andrew and Ben hold an impromptu symposium on AI and its implications, featuring questions from listeners. Topics include: The long-term UX for Deep Research, OpenAI's allergy to an ads-based business model, a confession from Ben after an Exponent take years ago, how AI might--or might not--change the White Collar economy, an era of startups capitalizing on AI-enabled cost structures, AI for companionship and adult content, and whether generative AI will slowly erode human cognition. At the end: A few follow-ups on Vision Pro, including proof of concept at a bluegrass concert.
During the Biden administration, I warned that the government was engaging in “economic grooming” by acculturating the public to accept the current price levels as the new normal and to deem slower rates of increase as victories against inflation. We are seeing the same things from Trump supporters misinterpreting one month's CPI report. We cannot lie to people that inflation has been solved without cutting spending or without a deep recession. Next, we're joined by April Cromer, vice chair of the South Carolina state Freedom Caucus, who reports bad news from the South Carolina budget. The GOP governor and, yes, supermajority worked with every Democrat to pass a bloated and woke budget. The Freedom Caucus in South Carolina (unlike the national one) refused to go along with it and has exposed that supermajorities are just as fraudulent as narrow majorities. She explains how she beat an incumbent and why primaries are more important than general elections. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Every day, experts from around the globe present their arguments for solving the world's biggest problems. And every day, these experts disagree in small and large ways. At Foreign Policy, our approach is to share a wide range of opinions, side by side, day by day. But what if people could hear those arguments tested, in real time, under pressure from an opposing view–by an international cast of diplomats, journalists, academics and activists? That's the idea behind Counterpoint, a new debate show from Foreign Policy, in partnership with the Doha Forum—hosted by FP deputy editor Sasha Polakow-Suransky. On this episode, Sasha explores the question: Should the West Pressure Ukraine to Negotiate an End to the War?

Most people are not insane enough to refer to themselves as the opposite gender, but so many of us still act transgender. On today's special evergreen episode, I share and expound upon Joy Pullmann's excellent essay “How Feminism Makes Everyone Transgender.” She argues that conservatives have misdiagnosed our societal ills as stemming from too much femininity injected into government by liberal females.
