This week's quiz: On 5 July, I asked you a question about an article written by RFI English journalist Amanda Morrow: “Ocean campaigners hail French move to snuff out cigarette butt pollution”. In her article, we learned that cigarette ends, or butts, are filled with microplastics and that when they break apart, they leach chemicals into soil and water. France has banned smoking on beaches, in public parks, and at bus stops, as well as near schools, libraries, swimming pools, and sports grounds. You were to re-read Amanda's article and send in the answer to this question: How many liters of water can a single cigarette butt contaminate? The answer is, to quote Amanda's article: “According to the French Ministry of Ecological Transition, a single cigarette butt can contaminate up to 500 liters of water.” In addition to the quiz question, there was the bonus question, suggested by long-time RFI Listeners Club member Nasyr Muhammad from Katsina State, Nigeria: “What is your favorite prize you've received from RFI, and why?” Do you have a bonus question idea?

Rund 50 Minuten lang ist dieses berückend schöne Riesenwerk, es ist zugleich das am wenigsten bekannte der drei Klavierquartette von Brahms. Unter anderem mit diesem Stück stellte sich der Komponist dem Wiener Publikum vor, er selbst spielte die Uraufführung am 29. November 1862 im Musikvereinssaal, zusammen mit Mitgliedern des Hellmesberger Quartetts aus Wien. Bis kurz davor feilte Brahms an dieser Komposition und änderte manche Stellen erheblich: Er passte etwa die Verteilung von Begleitfiguren im ersten und zweiten Satz an, was im Autograf deutlich zu erkennen ist. Dieses Quartett steht in der lichten Tonart A-Dur. Es ist insgesamt eher im lyrischen und innigen Ton gehalten, aber in diesem bisweilen idyllischen Stimmungs-Kaleidoskop tun sich auch immer wieder tiefe und dramatische Abgründe auf. So etwa im langsamen zweiten Satz, in welchem Brahms das Lied «Die Stadt» von Franz Schubert zitiert. Das Finale schliesslich ist ein freudig-tänzerisches Rondo «all'ongarese». Es ist eines der umfangreichsten Kammermusikwerke des Repertoires überhaupt und stellt grosse Anforderungen an alle Spielenden, sowohl in kleinen Details wie auch in der Gestaltung der sehr gross angelegten Form. Gäste von Moritz Weber sind die Cellistin und Nationalrätin für den Kanton Genf Estelle Revaz und der Pianist Benjamin Engeli. Erstausstrahlung: 08.04.2024

Diese «Fiirabigmusig» zeigt, wie vielfältig das Chorrepertoire ist. Aus dem Bereich der Klassik erklingt das «Wiegenlied» von Franz Schubert. Weiter sind aber auch Melodien aus der Populärmusik dabei wie «Mein kleiner grüner Kaktus» oder der Gospel « He's still working on me».

Even after I publish a Countermelody episode on a favorite singer, I continue to collect material on them, which I then occasionally fold into a potpourri episode of vocal and musical delights. I have dubbed such episodes part of my “Rescue Mission” series and I'm tempted to call today's episode I'm tempted to call “Friend Edition” (even though there are several good friends I've made in recent years who are not represented today). Be that as it may, I do love putting out such episodes, especially as it gives new listeners some idea of the range and depth of the podcast, and the joys of dipping into Countermelody's back catalogue. For today's episode I spread the net particularly wide, and in some cases went way back into my archives so present you with some rarities which I have programmed in such a way to take us from the despair and confusion that many of us are feeling right now into a place of both resolution and resolve to keep holding on and fighting for what is right. Today's setlist includes many Countermelody favorites: tenors George Shirley, Peter Pears, and Jerry Hadley; baritones William Parker and Jorma Hynninen, mezzo-soprano Maureen Lehane; and sopranos Eleanor Steber, Carol Neblett, Sarah Reese, Anne Wiggins Brown, Veronica Tyler, Annabelle Bernard, Denise Duval, Lois Marshall, Gloria Davy, and April Cantelo; with appearances by other great singers who have not yet been featured in full episodes, including Franco Corelli, Sandra Warfield, Helen Watts, Émile Belcourt, Valerie Masterson, and, in memoriam, Béatrice Uria-Monzon. We hear music from César Franck, Ottorino Respighi, Johann Sebastian Bach, Giacomo Puccini, Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky, Franz Schubert, George Gershwin, Gioachino Rossini, Leonard Bernstein, Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson, Emmanuel Bondeville, and Giacomo Meyerbeer. As always, queer artists and artists of color are prominently featured, as one of my objectives in producing this podcast is to foreground such historical artists as essential to our growth and self-awareness. If you're just getting to know the podcast, this is as good a place to start as anywhere! Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing. By clicking on the following link (https://linktr.ee/CountermelodyPodcast) you can find the dedicated Countermelody website which contains additional content including artist photos and episode setlists. The link will also take you to Countermelody's Patreon page, where you can pledge your monthly or yearly support at whatever level you can afford.  

This episode is a deviation from our normal programming. It is an eulogy - an end of life dedication of sorts - to a few loved ones that have passed away recently. I wrote this account to honor them; Robert O'Neill, Philip Waln, and Larry Reedy.  Though there are no really scary parts to this episode, as it is almost entirely non-fiction, there are some disturbing subjects. TW: addiction and real-life death. If you are okay with these subjects being briefly discussed, I hope that you proceed with the episode as it was written to honor and praise those that have left our world - people who were very dear to me in life. Please enjoy. This story was written by Phillip Clark. It was directed, engineered, and edited by Phillip Clark. The Hidden Archives is created by Phillip Clark, and is produced by Phillip Clark and Nicole Clark of the Rhodes Collaborative Experience LLC.   Executive Producer: Phillip Clark   Co-Executive Producer: Nicole Clark   This story was read by Phillip Clark.   Music: Theme is “Goldberg Variations, BWV 988 – 22 Variatio 21 Canone alla Settima” by J.S.

Was haben Franz Schubert und Nick Cave gemeinsam? Auf den ersten Blick nicht viel - doch Schauspieler Charly Hübner und das Ensemble Resonanz verbinden ihre Musik in einem berührenden Konzertprojekt: "Mercy Seat". Im BR-KLASSIK-Interview spricht Charly Hübner über seine Scheu vor Klassik, über Halbtöne als Psychogramme - und darüber, warum man mit einer Krähe über die Weltlage sprechen kann.

Er war kein „Klaviertiger“, der mit Chopin oder Rachmaninow überwältigte. Seine Welt war die Wiener Klassik und vor allem die Musik von Franz Schubert. Ein tönendes Porträt des Pianisten Alfred Brendel, der nun mit 94 Jahren gestorben ist.

Mitschnitt des 4. Konzertes von Studierenden der Joseph Haydn Privathochschule im ORF Landesstudio Burgenland vom 18. Juni mit dem Motto "Junge Talente im Konzert - Viele Saiten, ein Klang!" Wenn die Seiten zu Saiten werden, wächst der Klang von der kleinsten Schwingung hin zum vielstimmigen Akkord. Zu hören waren Kompositionen für Streichinstrumente von Maurice Ravel, Fritz Kreisler und Franz Schubert, die in ein gemischtes Wechselspiel mit Gitarren und Musik von Coco Nelegatti, Isaac Albéniz, Astor Piazzolla und Paulo Bellinati traten. Moderiert wurde das Konzert vom Rektor der Joseph Haydn Privathochschule Burgenland Gerhard Krammer.

durée : 01:28:43 - Une heure et plus, un compositeur : Franz Schubert - par : Aurélie Moreau - Né en 1797 à Vienne, mort à seulement 31 ans, Schubert laisse une œuvre immense. Musicien discret, il compose dans l'ombre de Beethoven, mais sa voix unique, mêlant tendresse, mélancolie et fulgurances harmoniques, marque à jamais l'histoire de la musique.

Jeden Tag treffen sie sich zum Üben: die beiden französischen Pianisten Manuel Vieillard und David Salomon. Mit Erfolg! Sie haben 2021 nämlich den ARD-Musikwettbewerb als Klavierduo gewonnen. Im BR-KLASSIK Interview spricht Manuel Vieillard über seinen Duopartner, der für ihn mittlerweile wie ein Bruder ist und über ihr gemeinsames Mammutprojekt: nämlich das gesamte vierhändige Klavierwerk von Franz Schubert einzuspielen.

Robert Knöll ist Kunsthistoriker und Bilderrahmer. In seinem Atelier, das die grösste Sammlung barocker Bilderrahmen beherbergt, setzt er Kunstwerke gekonnt in Szene. Kunstsammler, Museen und Galerien vertrauen ihm, wenn es darum geht, berühmte Werke in den passenden Rahmen zu setzen. Ein Handwerk, das in seiner Familie eine lange Tradition hat: Schon sein Vater war ein leidenschaftlicher Sammler und Bilderrahmer. Nach dessen Tod übernahm Robert Knöll den Familienbetrieb, doch für ihn war dieser Schritt weit mehr als nur berufliche Verantwortung – er war eine Bestimmung. «Die Beschäftigung mit Bilderrahmen ist nicht nur mein Beruf, es ist meine Passion», sagt Robert Knöll, und es ist spürbar, dass diese Leidenschaft weit über den Arbeitsalltag hinausgeht. In seinen Träumen erscheinen Bilderrahmen, die ihn in seiner Freizeit genauso begleiten wie im Beruf. Wenn es darum geht, ein berühmtes Kunstwerk neu zu rahmen, reist er zu Museen in ganz Europa, um die perfekte Wahl zu treffen. Es fasziniert ihn immer wieder, wie die Wirkung eines Bildes sich verändert, je nachdem, wie es gerahmt wird. Bereits als Kind war Robert Knöll von Archäologie begeistert – der Blick hinter die oberste Schicht, das Entdecken von Geschichte und Kultur. Diese Faszination für Details und den Kontext von Kunstwerken zieht sich durch sein gesamtes Leben und wirkt sich auf seine Arbeit aus. In «Musik für einen Gast» bei Eva Oertle spricht Robert Knöll über seine Faszination für alte Rahmen und erklärt, warum sie oft im Schatten der eigentlichen Kunstwerke stehen. Er erzählt von einem besonderen Stück aus seiner Kindheit – einem echten Donatello, der über seinem Bett hing und heute einen Platz in einem Museum hat. Und er spricht über seine Liebe zum Cello und der Musik von Brahms. Die Musiktitel: 1. Johannes Brahms Cello Sonate No. 1 in E Moll, 1. Satz Pieter Wispelway, Cello / Dejan Lazić, Piano 2.

THE MUSIC OF EASTER—with its traditional themes of death and rebirth—touches the extremes of the emotional spectrum, from deepest anguish to radiant joy. Over the past 40 years, Hearts of Space has often celebrated this special holiday with the help of our longtime guest producer for classical and sacred music, ELLEN HOLMES. This year, once again, Ellen brings us a collection of sublime choral and instrumental music for Easter, on a program she calls “OF SOUND AND SPIRIT.” “Traditionally,” she says, “on Easter Sunday and during the week before Easter—concerts of majestic music are performed all over the world…celebrating the miracle…of life's eternal renewal. This special Easter program follows that tradition, featuring exceptionally beautiful pieces and performances from ancient to contemporary.” With music by FRANZ SCHUBERT, HENRIK ØDEGAARD, JORDI SAVALL, J.S. BACH, SIGVALDI KALDALÓNS, GUSTAVE MAHLER, MAX RICHTER, CHARLES GOUNOD, and others. [ view playlist ] [ view Flickr image gallery ] [ play 30 second MP3 promo ]

I have been fascinated for years by operas performed in the vernacular, a phenomenon which was common in Germany until quite recently. Even more interesting in many ways is the performance of art song in the language of the audience. Some time ago I produced an episode featuring the Lieder of Franz Schubert performed in both French and Russian translation. As a supplement to that episode, I present here two of the featured artists from that episode, the French baryton martin Camille Maurane (1911 – 2010) and the Russian lyric tenor Ivan Kozlovsky (1900 – 1993), quintessential representatives of their respective vocal categories, both of whom happened to live well into their nineties. They are featured singing the songs of Schubert in their native languages in recordings made between 1946 and 1962. Certain songs are sung by both artists, allowing one to make direct comparisons between their very different vocal styles. In addition I feature excerpts from Schubert's two supreme masterpieces, Die schöne Müllerin and Winterreise, the latter excerpts sung in Finnish, Swedish, and English, with an additional shocking surprise before the end. The episode begins with brief memorial tributes to three significant musicians who have died recently: composer William Finn, basso buffo Peter Strummer, and Heldentenor Peter Seiffert. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

She prevented war and death on an immense scale, in acts that could earn the Nobel Peace Prize today. But History enshrined Sisi, Empress of Austria, as a vain beauty queen. The smear campaign was personal, not political: it started with her own tyrannical mother-in-law. Can Sisi conquer her own self-doubt, and drag draconian Austria into the modern world? Our guest is Nancy Goldstone, author of The Rebel Empresses: Elisabeth of Austria and Eugenie of France, Power and Glamor in the Struggle for Europe. _________________ Music in the episode includes works by Johann Strauss, Joseph Suk, Giuseppe Verdi, Bedrich Smetana, Johannes Brahms, Franz Schubert, Franz Liszt, and Kevin MacLeod.

The baritone Benjamin Appl has recorded an album for Alpha that combines the music of György Kurtág with that of Franz Schubert. 'Lines of Life: Schubert & Kurtág' is the result of a long process that started with Kurtág choosing the singer for this unique project and working with him on the music, and finally producing the recording - and even playing the piano for Appl in two songs that close the programme. James Jolly met up with Benjamin Appl – a former Gramophone Young Artist of the Year – to talk about the album, but also about another recording that's on the horizon, his tribute to his teacher, and one of the great Lieder singers of the post-war period, Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, the 100th anniversary of whose birth falls in May. This Gramophone Podcast is given in association with Wigmore Hall

This Day in Legal History: 13th Amendment PassedOn January 31, 1865, the U.S. Congress passed the 13th Amendment, formally abolishing slavery in the United States. The amendment declared that "neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction." While President Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation had freed enslaved people in Confederate-held territories two years earlier, it lacked the permanence of a constitutional amendment. The House of Representatives passed the measure by a vote of 119 to 56, narrowly reaching the required two-thirds majority after intense political maneuvering. The Senate had already approved it in April 1864. Ratification by the states followed, culminating in its adoption on December 6, 1865. The amendment marked a legal end to slavery, but systemic racial discrimination persisted through Black Codes, Jim Crow laws, and other restrictive measures. Despite this, the 13th Amendment laid the foundation for future civil rights advancements. Its passage was a key victory for abolitionists and a defining moment of the Civil War's aftermath. The amendment's "punishment for crime" clause later became a subject of controversy, as it allowed convict leasing and forced labor in prisons, disproportionately affecting Black Americans. Even today, debates continue over its implications for the U.S. prison system.Fox Rothschild LLP has blocked its lawyers from using DeepSeek, a Chinese AI startup, due to concerns about client data security. While the firm allows AI tools like ChatGPT with restrictions, DeepSeek's data storage in China raises unique risks, according to Mark G. McCreary, the firm's chief AI and information security officer. A recent data breach involving DeepSeek further heightened security concerns. Other major law firms, including Wilson Sonsini and Polsinelli, are also implementing strict vetting processes for new AI models. Wilson Sonsini requires its chief information security officer and general counsel to approve AI tools before use, while Polsinelli enforces firm-wide restrictions on unapproved AI software.

The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals overturned a previous ruling, citing the Supreme Court's 2022 decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, which requires modern gun laws to align with historical firearm regulations. The federal ban, enacted in 1968, was challenged by young adults and gun rights groups, who argued it violated the Second Amendment. Judge Edith Jones, writing for the court, found insufficient historical evidence to justify restricting gun sales for 18-to-20-year-olds. The ruling marks a major shift in gun policy, aligning with broader legal trends expanding Second Amendment protections. The Justice Department, which defended the ban under the Biden administration, has not yet commented on the decision. Gun rights advocates hailed the ruling as a victory against age-based firearm restrictions.US ban on gun sales to adults under age 21 is unconstitutional, court rules | ReutersIn a piece for Techdirt, Karl Bode critiques the Trump FCC's decision to roll back efforts to curb exclusive broadband deals between landlords and internet providers. The Biden FCC had attempted to update outdated rules that allowed ISPs to form monopolies within apartment buildings, driving up prices and reducing competition. However, due to delays caused by industry opposition and the failed nomination of reformer Gigi Sohn, key proposals—including a ban on bulk billing—were left unapproved. When Brendan Carr took over as FCC chair under Trump, he quickly scrapped these pending consumer protections. Bode argues that U.S. telecom policy is stuck in a cycle where Democrats make half-hearted attempts at reform, only for Republicans to dismantle them entirely under the guise of deregulation. The result is a landscape where telecom giants and landlords continue to collude, leaving consumers with fewer choices, higher costs, and poor service.The Trump FCC Makes It Easier For Your Landlord And Your ISP To Collude To Rip You Off | TechdirtBally's Chicago casino project is facing a legal challenge over its commitment to reserving 25% of its investment opportunities for women and people of color. Conservative activist Edward Blum, known for spearheading lawsuits against affirmative action, filed the suit on behalf of two white men who claim they were unfairly excluded from investing. The lawsuit argues that the policy violates federal civil rights law and should be open to all investors regardless of race. This case is part of a broader push against diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, which gained momentum after a recent executive order from President Trump eliminating DEI programs in the federal government. Bally's maintains that its agreement with the city complies with legal requirements. The lawsuit references an 1866 civil rights law originally meant to protect Black Americans' economic rights and is similar to other cases challenging race-conscious corporate policies. Blum's organization has previously led legal battles against diversity-focused scholarships, grants, and hiring programs, including the Supreme Court case that struck down race-based college admissions in 2023.America's Battle Over DEI Strikes a Chicago Casino's Financing PlanThis week's closing theme is by Franz Schubert.Franz Schubert, one of the most beloved composers of the early Romantic era, was born on this day in 1797 in Vienna, Austria. Though he lived only 31 years, his vast output of music—ranging from symphonies and chamber works to piano music and over 600 songs—continues to inspire musicians and audiences alike. Schubert's music is often characterized by its lyricism, rich harmonies, and deep emotional expression, seamlessly bridging the clarity of the Classical era with the passion of Romanticism.Despite his immense talent, Schubert struggled with financial stability and never achieved widespread fame during his lifetime. He spent much of his career composing in relative obscurity, supported by a close-knit circle of friends and fellow artists. His songs, or lieder, are especially celebrated for their ability to capture both the beauty and melancholy of the human experience, with works like Erlkönig and Winterreise standing as some of the greatest achievements in the genre.His instrumental music, however, remained underappreciated until long after his death. Today, his symphonies, string quartets, and piano sonatas are recognized as masterpieces, filled with lyrical beauty and striking contrasts. Among his later works, the Piano Sonata No. 20 in A major, D. 959 showcases his mature style, blending elegance with deep introspection. The final movement, Rondo: Allegretto, serves as this week's closing theme, capturing both Schubert's charm and his poignant sense of longing.Though he died in 1828, just a year after Beethoven, Schubert's influence only grew in the decades that followed. Composers like Schumann, Brahms, and even Mahler admired his work, helping to cement his legacy as one of music's great geniuses. Today, on the anniversary of his birth, we celebrate the life and music of a composer who, despite facing struggles and setbacks, left behind an extraordinary body of work that continues to resonate across centuries.Without further ado, Franz Schubert's Piano Sonata No. 20 in A major, D. 959.  This is a public episode.

These days I find myself in a pensive, troubled state, very much in need of the kind of consolation that only music can provide. A number of years ago, I published a pair of episodes featuring the sublime Margaret Price performing music of mourning and consolation. Today's episode presents an expanded and refurbished version of the second of those episodes, in a program composed entirely of art song, moving through a sequence of emotions surrounding loss. Composers include Johannes Brahms, Giuseppe Verdi, Robert Schumann, Enrique Granados, Franz Schubert, Grace Williams, Sergei Rachmaninov, Felix Mendelssohn, Philip Cannon, Hugo Wolf, Alban Berg, Maurice Ravel, Franz Liszt, Peter Cornelius, and Richard Strauss, and collaborating pianists and conductors include Claudio Abbado, Wolfgang Sawallisch, Cyprien Katsaris, Geoffrey Parsons, and Neville Marriner, as well as frequent collaborators James Lockhart and Thomas Dewey. A thorough traversal of the song repertoire by one of the supreme recitalists of the late 20th Century. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

The New Year is off to a predictably challenging start. Everywhere we look (California, Canada, New Orleans, and beyond) dreadful things are happening. I am offering in the spirit of solace and condolence a freshly refurbished and expanded bonus episode that I first published three and a half years ago as a pendant to another all-Schubert episode. This one presents all of the songs collected in the posthumously-published song collection Schwanengesang, that includes settings of poems by Ludwig Rellstab, Heinrich Heine, and Johann Gabriel Seidl. Many of Schubert's late Seidl settings were not included in that collection but they number among Schubert's most inspired and moving creations. I have included six of those settings at the beginning of the episode. These magnificent and transcendent songs are performed by exceptional baritones and bass-baritones in recordings spanning the course much of the twentieth century. Singers include Alexander Kipnis, Hans Hotter, Mark Reizen, Hermann Prey, Heinrich Schlusnus, Charles Panzéra, Andrzej Hiolski, Walter Berry, Benjamin Luxon, George London, Tom Krause, John Shirley-Quirk, Gérard Souzay [of course!], Heinrich Rehkemper, and many others. May these singers, voicing the divine utterances of Franz Schubert, provide a certain respite for those that are currently suffering.
