Podcasts about Dylan Thomas

The Emma Rice Company's adaptation of Dylan Thomas' A Child's Christmas in Wales opened last week to rave reviews. Hannah grabbed some time with its founder, writer and director Emma Rice, to talk about a change of name, a new venue in Somerset, and Thomas. And a lot more besides, including Emma's time as artistic director at The Globe, something that did not end happily, and why she thinks we're all being a bit hard on Enid Blyton.

Emerging from Edinburgh's music scene in the mid-1990s, Idlewild carved out their place in a British rock scene choc-a-bloc with guitar bands (the halo of Britpop) through a combination of emotional intensity and literary edge. All of this is present in the band still, right down to new song “Back Then You Found Me” name checking Dylan Thomas's Under Milk Wood. Their 1998 debut album, Hope Is Important, announced them as something more than just another Scottish guitar band. Their songs were tight, but angular, and threaded with Woomble's poetic phrasing and a strong melodic core. Did Idlewild have the boom and bust fame of Brett Anderson's “Stations of the Cross” career curve (on which this podcast is based, I remind you)?Of a sort, yes. Building on an acclaimed debut album (Broken Windows),  2002's The Remote Part, Idlewild reached a classic creative x commercial peak. That album is perhaps still their most well known - a more expansive, anthemic sound without abandoning the sensibilities that had become their trademark. It contained bona fide chart hits, “You Held the World in Your Arms” and “American English” and set the band on the way to being one of the key British bands in the early 2000s.But in a sense, the “stratospheric rise to the top” was kept well in check. Perhaps it was personnel changes (I haven't counted but the band has had more than its fair share of bassists). They pivoted toward a warmer, more reflective style on Warnings/Promises (2005), incorporating folk influences and richer textures. It bridged the band to maturity and opened up their options but ultimately did not satisfy the major label they were signed to, Parlophone. An arena tour with Coldplay somewhat exposed Idlewild's “limitations” if you want to put it that way - not musically, but in terms of performance - the will and the way to take their show to the big stages expected by major labels. There was no meltdown, no drama. But major label life is what it is - both back then, and in the present time. “Our label mates were Kylie Minogue, Radiohead, Coldplay and Blur. We were definitely at the bottom of that pile”.When Parlophone didn't want to renew a new deal after four albums, it was time for the band to re-adjust. To Woomble, it was liberating - eventually. “For Make Another World, we felt like we'd toured enough, we had a fan base. Then after Post Electric Blues (2009) we decided to take some time away. As a band we felt intact, but we also felt like we wanted to stay up at the level we were, not to end up just playing clubs. The music business was so strange then (2007), we ended up taking five years away and came back with a renewed sense of what we could do, creatively”. Their string of subsequent albums, Everything Ever Written (2015), Interview Music (2019) and now Idlewild all have something to offer, and demonstrate the band's refusal to stagnate. The one-two punch of Woomble's poetic lyrics and Jones's jagged, urgent guitar work still delivers something, if not unique, then most definitely a cut above standard indie fare - more depth, more emotion. Few bands transition successfully from ragged punk-inflected rock to expansive indie-folk, but Idlewild managed it without alienating their audience or diluting their artistic character. In short, Idlewild's career is a testament to thoughtful songwriting, evolution, and the enduring power of emotionally intelligent rock. Most definitely an interesting and quietly inspiring longevity story. Support the showGet more related content at: https://www.songsommelier.com/

When I was young, I read a famous poem that I now regard as one of the strangest poems ever written. It is the one entitled “Do not go gentle into that good night” by Dylan Thomas with its repeated refrain “do not go gentle into that good night…rage, rage against the dying of the light”.

Ikebana ist die sehr minimalistische japanische Kunst des Blumenarrangierens, um Harmonie und eine besondere Ästhetik zu erzeugen – und sie ist die Inspiration für die neueste Single von Yaama ("Ikebana Flower"), die zudem ihre aktuellen EPs "Cut" und "Continuity" nach einem japanischen Ästhetik Prinzip benannt hat. "Cut/Continuity" ("Schnitt-Kontinuität") – unter diesem Titel hat Yaama acht Songs auf zwei EPs veröffentlicht, die eine Verbundenheit zwischen Leben und Tod oder Trennung und Verbindung ausdrücken sollen und eine direkte Übersetzung aus dem Japanischen sind: Kire Tsuzuki. Wenn also in der Kunst, Dichtung, Architektur oder auch der Naturdarstellung etwas "abgeschnitten" wird, entsteht gerade durch diesen Einschnitt etwas Neues, das die Phase des Übergangs sichtbar macht. Der Übergang in der Musik von Yaama besteht vor allem aus dem Zusammenbringen unterschiedlichster Anmutungen: Beats und Synthies treffen auf Folk und Jazz wie poetische Lyrics. Sounds, die an gewissen Stellen abbrechen, Verzerrungen und dann in ihren Songs wieder zu einer Einheit zusammenfinden. Inspirieren lässt Yaama, die zuvor auch schon unter ihrem bürgerlichen Namen Mariama Ceesay Musik veröffentlicht hat, allerdings nicht nur von japanischer Ästhetik, sondern auch von dem amerikanischen Poeten schlechthin: Dylan Thomas! Unter anderem ist Yaamas Interpretation seines Gedichtes "Do not go gentle into that good night" auch auf ihrer Doppel-EP "Cut/Continuity" gelandet. Über ihre Faszination japanischer Ästhetik – und natürlich über ihre neue Musik kann Yaama heute Abend im studioeins sprechen.

Valentina Ferri"La cioccolata di Euterpe"Partitura per nuovi mitifveditoriwww.fveditori.itCosa hanno in comune Leonora Carrington ed Edgar Allan Poe? Una merenda con la cioccolata a Parigi e Francesco Petrarca? E ancora, cosa può avvicinare i versi di un mistico islamico a quelli del poeta Dylan Thomas? La risposta è: la musica. Grazie alla sua musa Euterpe, infatti, prendono qui vita tanghi e quadri surrealisti, pagine dodecafoniche insieme ad Arie rossiniane e gourmanderie. Ogni autore qui crea tra-miti fra la propria arte e il talento altrui dando vita a spartiti in cui possono figurare danze popolari spagnole e pagine di Aleksandr Skrjabin, Sirene fuggite dall'Ulysses di James Joyce e feste mascherate alla corte di Leonor Fini. Un viaggio appassionante attraverso i capolavori della letteratura, della pittura e della musica, tra testi sacri e profani ascoltati – letti – in una inedita “partitura”. Valentina Ferri è giornalista, attrice e scrittrice: autrice di testi teatrali e biografie su personaggi dell'arte e della musica, coniuga da molto tempo la ricerca sulla voce e l'efficacia della comunicazione sonora con la scrittura e l'interpretazione di testi e autori inediti. È alla ricerca della pietra filosofale, della parola che mondi possa aprirci e, forse, della prima nota che diede fuoco alle stelle. IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Professor Carl Jones is a conservation biologist who is best known for saving the Mauritius kestrel from extinction. He is the scientific director of Mauritian Wildlife Foundation, chief scientist at Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust and an honorary professor in ecology and conservation biology at the University of East Anglia.He was born in Carmarthen in Wales and was fascinated with animals from an early age, rearing rescued common kestrels, owls and hawks in his back garden. He studied biology at North-East London Polytechnic and, after learning about the plight of the Mauritius kestrel, he was determined to go out to the country to try to save the bird.He arrived in Mauritius in 1979 when there were only two known breeding pairs left in the wild. By the time he left in 1999 he'd established a captive breeding programme and today hundreds of Mauritius kestrels fly over the islands where he spent decades pioneering his, sometimes controversial, methods. Today the Mauritius kestrel is the national bird. He is also responsible for saving from extinction three species of reptiles, a fruit bat and several plants.He was appointed an MBE for his work in 2004 and in 2016 he won the prestigious Indianapolis Prize – the world's leading award for animal conservation.Carl lives in Carmarthen with his wife and two children and assorted animals including two Andean condors called Carlos and Baby.

John Cale's enigmatic masterpiece, Paris 1919, appeared at a time when the artist and his world were changing forever. It was 1973, the year of the Watergate hearings and the oil crisis, and Cale was at a crossroads. The white-hot rage of his Velvet Underground days was nearly spent; now he was living in Los Angeles, working for a record company and making music when time allowed. He needed to lay to rest some ghosts, but he couldn't do that without scaring up others. Paris 1919 was the result. In John Cale's Paris 1919 (Bloomsbury, 2025), Mark Doyle hunts down the ghosts haunting Cale's most enduring solo album.

It's an extra-long BREAKING MAYBERRY ALL-STARS featuring three of our favorite returning guests to talk about the three-no-wait-four-part Andy Griffith Epic - "The Hollywood Arc".Yes, for the first (only?) time in the show's run, the Taylors are leaving North Carolina, and this causes everyone to lose their damn minds. We brought in backup for this one, and our returning guests are bewildered and mystified and one case, deeply upset by Goober's hat.It's Season 6, Episodes 7, 8, and 9 "Off to Hollywood", "Taylors in Hollywood", and "The Hollywood Party".

John Cale's enigmatic masterpiece, Paris 1919, appeared at a time when the artist and his world were changing forever. It was 1973, the year of the Watergate hearings and the oil crisis, and Cale was at a crossroads. The white-hot rage of his Velvet Underground days was nearly spent; now he was living in Los Angeles, working for a record company and making music when time allowed.

On this episode, Marc talks with Mark Doyle, author of "John Cale's Paris 1919," published in February of 2025 as part of the 33.3 series of short books on individual albums. It's a fascinating examination of John Cale's 1973 album, which Doyle approaches along the theme of "ghosts," with chapters on "The Ghosts of New York," "The Ghost of Dylan Thomas," "The Ghosts of HIstory," and "The Ghosts of Christmas."As Doyle writes, "If you are looking for some systematic explanation of the songs' mysteries, some Grand Unified Theory that will tie together all the historical, literary, and autobiographical references in the lyrics, I am afraid this is not that book. Instead, I will undertake the more delicate task of identifying, one at a time, and with the utmost care, just a few of the ghosts haunting the album, taking their measure for a few moments before they float off into the night."You can buy Mark's book here, and we hope you enjoy our conversation with him!

Dylan Thomas, watching on YouTube, asked, 'I'm curious about the early life of Marcus Furius Camillus. He seems to pop up during the siege of Veii in Livy's work, with few mentions beforehand, and is then an important figure going forward. Are there any primary sources that recount his early life and career? The man's a legend, easily one of the top ten Romans of all time, but there seem to be scant records of him.'   Join us on Patron patreon.com/ancientwarfarepodcast    

A few years ago, songwriter Dylan Thomas, an influential visionary of Christian contemporary music, and a few of his friends founded CREATR, an organization bringing together the who-is-who of Christian worship for collaborative projects, with one of the most recent and stunning projects at Museum of the Bible.

How hot is it? Well, poet Dylan Thomas found lots of memorable ways to describe a heat wave. In one letter to a friend, he wrote that it was so hot "My brains are hanging out like a dog's tongue." And: pestering country music stars for selfies is a big no-no in Nashville. In fact, the locals even have a word for it. Also, why do we say something's easy as pie? After all, baking a pie is a whole lot of work! Plus, nunatak, dwadle, Zaunkönig, a Greek-inspired brain teaser, icing vs. frosting vs. filling, gherm, behead vs. decapitate, manavalins.
