This week a light-hearted (and therefore much-needed!) tribute to the marvelous Felicia Weathers, who, in the midst of her burgeoning operatic career in the late 1960s, made two LPs of Schlagermusik, 1968's Liebe Love L'amour (which also sports the best record cover in the history of the LP!) and, the following year, Wunderbar ist die Welt. Both of these were arranged and conducted by one Harold M. Kirschstein, referred to in the liner notes as an important conductor and arranger. Imagine my surprise when, upon doing a little research, I discovered that this person was better known in his native United States as Henri René, whom I knew from his work with Eartha Kitt in the early days of her recording career. His arrangements are, of course, predictably delightful. Amid all her other successes, Felicia Weathers (like Maria Ewing a generation later) found her greatest fame performing the title role of Richard Strauss's Salome. This role may have put strain on her voice and shortened her career, but in the late 1960s her voice, as captured on these recordings, was a beguilingly beautiful instrument. She also displays a fine interpretive approach, keen linguistic sense, and vital communicative powers to these songs, which feature some of my favorite melodies ever, including those written by Georges Auric, Jimmy Webb, Harold Arlen, Henry Mancini, Jean-Paul Egide Martini, Oscar Straus, and Friedrich Hollaender. I supplement these delicious selections with two Rodgers and Hammerstein medleys from Weathers' 1969 album of songs from musicals, Hello, Young Lovers, which also features duets with the superb African American baritone William Ray, who was also based in Europe during those years. Enjoy this delicious, if brief, escape from reality! 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.

Dana and Tom with Christine Duncan and Klarissa (I've Seen That) revisit Roman Holiday (1953): directed by William Wyler, written by Dalton Trumbo, Ian McClellan Hunter, and John Dighton, score by Georges Auric and Victor Young, starring Gregory Peck, Audrey Hepburn, and Eddie Albert.Plot Summary: In the pantheon of classic cinematic escapades, "Roman Holiday" stands as a luminous testament to the transformative power of love and the allure of adventure. Picture this: a weary princess, suffocated by the pomp and circumstance of royal life, seeks solace in the vibrant heart of Rome. Audrey Hepburn, in her iconic role as Princess Ann, embodies youthful exuberance and longing. Her quest for normalcy leads her into the unsuspecting arms of Gregory Peck's Joe Bradley, a hardened journalist looking for his next big scoop.This isn't just a love story—it's a celebration of serendipity. The narrative waltzes through the cobblestone streets of Rome, capturing the city's soul through enchanting vignettes: a Vespa ride, a mouthwatering gelato, and a dance by the Tiber. The chemistry between Hepburn and Peck is palpable with their performances grounding the whimsical tale in emotional truth.But "Roman Holiday" is more than escapist fantasy; it's a poignant commentary on the dichotomy between duty and desire, a meditation on the fleeting nature of freedom. As Ann returns to her royal obligations, we're left with a bittersweet reminder of the price of responsibility. In an era where reality often feels burdensome, this film invites us to lose ourselves in its magic, if only for a moment.Guests:Christine Duncan - Wife of Dana and Mother of Tom14x guest: Pretty Woman, Sleepless in Seattle, When Harry Met Sally, There's Something About Mary, My Fair Lady, Pillow Talk, The Odd Couple, Bringing Up Baby, A Few Good Men - Revisit, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, Top Gun, Dial M for Murder, Anatomy of a Murder, and

Kate Molleson explores the spry and subtly surprising music of Germaine Tailleferre Kate Molleson revels in the spry and subtly surprising music of Germaine Tailleferre, with guests Barbara Kelly and Caroline Potter. Germaine Tailleferre first made a splash in the heady atmosphere of 1920s Paris. She was part of a lively, bohemian scene in which poetry and exhibitions went hand in hand with performances of new music. Her career was given a bump start by the eccentric older composer, Eric Satie. He was an influential voice in avant-garde circles, and his support opened a door to wider recognition. Tailleferre became part of a like-minded set of young composers, along with Francis Poulenc, Arthur Honegger, Darius Milhaud, Louis Durey and Georges Auric. Their energy and drive created exciting new outlets for performances of their music. It was a journalist, Henri Collet, who coined their eventual collective name "Les Six". While their artistic paths quickly diversified, the group remained friends for the rest of their lives. Tailleferre was a prolific composer, writing in all the genres from small scale chamber works to large scale works including cantatas, orchestral scores, ballets and operas. After enjoying considerable success, by the 1930s her prominence began to fade. There's some evidence to suggest that her two unhappy marriages, and the deprivations of living in occupied France, followed by a temporary exile in the States during the second world war all had an adverse impact on her career. Despite these setbacks, she continued to compose and would teach music almost to the very end of her life. She died in 1983 at the age of 91. Held back perhaps by her own retiring personality and historical views of a female composer, Tailleferre's music has been overshadowed by some of the other members of "Les Six". This week Kate Molleson brings Germaine Tailleferre's music firmly in to the limelight. She's joined in studio by two other Tailleferre enthusiasts, Barbara Kelly from the University of Leeds, and Caroline Potter, who's currently writing a book about Tailleferre.

durée : 01:54:59 - Les Nuits de France Culture - par : Albane Penaranda - En 1973, France Culture proposait un hommage au philosophe chrétien Jacques Maritain (1882-1973) à travers lectures et précieux témoignages de ses amis proches. "Son beau visage saisissait quiconque le rencontrait" se souvient le médecin Robert Debré, qui fut l'ami de jeunesse de Jacques Maritain dans les années 1900-1905. "Long et mince, le front penché, je me souviens très bien de lui transportant des livres de Charles Peguy, dans une petite boutique-librairie située au 05 rue de la Sorbonne à Paris". Ce jeune homme ainsi évoqué par Robert Debré, fut reçu à l'agrégation de philosophie en 1905 à l'âge de 23 ans, et décida de se convertir au catholicisme deux ans plus tard, sous l'influence de l'écrivain Léon Bloy. Une démarche que cet idéaliste et chercheur de vérité entreprit de concert avec son épouse la philosophe Raïssa Maritain (née Raïssa Oumançoff). "Jacques Maritain était un homme d'une transparence, d'une pureté rarissime" Orchestrée par l'écrivain et éditeur Stanislas Fumet, cette émission , composée de lectures et d'entretiens, reconstitue les principales étapes de l'itinéraire intellectuel de Jacques Maritain, disparu le 28 avril 1973. Outre le témoignage vivant du professeur Debré, cet hommage radiophonique donne à entendre d'autres voix exceptionnelles : celle du Père jésuite Michel Riquet, du journaliste André Frossard, sans oublier celle de l'écrivain Julien Green, du compositeur Georges Auric ou du philosophe et indianiste Olivier Lacombe.

Synopsis We probably have the irrepressible playwright, music critic, and ardent socialist George Bernard Shaw to thank for this music—the Third Symphony of Sir Edward Elgar. Shaw had been trying to persuade Elgar to write a Third Symphony, and, early in 1932, had written to Elgar: "Why don't you make the BBC order a new symphony. It can afford it!" A few months later, Shaw dashed off a postcard with a detailed, albeit tongue-in-cheek program for the new work: "Why not a Financial Symphony? Allegro: Impending Disaster; Lento mesto: Stone Broke; Scherzo: Light Heart and Empty Pocket; Allegro con brio: Clouds Clearing." Well, there was a worldwide depression in 1932, but the depression that had prevented Elgar from tacking a new symphony was more personal: the death of his beloved wife in 1920. Despite describing himself as "a broken man," unable to tackle any major projects, when Elgar died in 1934, he left behind substantial sketches for a Third Symphony, commissioned, in fact, by the BBC. Fast forward 64 years, to February 15th, 1998, when the BBC Symphony gave the premiere performance of Elgar's Third at Royal Festival Hall in London, in a performing version, or "elaboration" of Elgar's surviving sketches, prepared by the contemporary British composer Anthony Payne. It was a tremendous success, and, we would like to think, somewhere in the hall the crusty spirit of George Bernard Shaw was heard to mutter: "Well—about time!"

El grupo de Los Seis, nombre dado en 1920 por el crítico Henri Collet, como analogía a los Cinco de Rusia. Este grupo de compositores estuvo conformado por Georges Auric, Louis Durey, Arthur Honegger, Darius Milhaud, Francis Poulenc y Germaine Tailleferre. Los miembros del grupo se adhirieron a la vertiente antirromántica impulsada por Jean Cocteau, pero poco después emprendieron caminos distintos. Louis Durey, el militante político del grupo, quien falleció un 3 de julio de 1979, adoptó una postura de silencio casi completo en composición durante la ocupación para demostrar su rechazo a cooperar con el control nazi de Francia en la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Durey se negó a componer obras nuevas mientras los alemanes estuvieron en el poder, pero se volcó a coleccionar y a arreglar canciones. Durey también se unió a la organización de la resistencia francesa Front National des Musiciens y se convirtió en un miembro destacado. Allí trabajó para esconder judíos y para preservar la música francesa prohibida.

Take a commonplace, clean it and polish it, light it so that it produces the same effect of youth and freshness and originality and spontaneity as it did originally, and you have done a poet's job. The rest is literature.Jean Cocteau. The rest is literature.When Cocteau was a young boy he said he would be clever later. He said his father was a painter. Boys say a lot of things. His father was an amateur painter, a lawyer by trade. His father killed himself when Cocteau was nine.You are not what you do, after all. You are not your work, you are not your suicide. Poets only pretend to die. You are not even your art but your art is the greatest reflection of self. Awaken from the reverie of your orphic dream. The poet creates and never insists upon his poetry. He is a poet because what he makes sings with all of his soul.When the editors of Cahiers Du Cinema collectively disavowed the stagnant literary-leaning past and present of French cinema, they kept the Masters. Robert Bresson, Jeen Renoir, and Jeen Cocteau were anti-modernists making movies that would be new forever. The masters suited the artistic ethics of the Nouvelle Vauge. Cocteau then embodied the past, present, and future of the French cinema. The rest — as the Cahiers crew would insist — is literature.Children believe what we tell them. They have complete faith in us. They believe that a rose plucked from a garden can bring drama to a family. They believe that the hands of a human beast will smoke when he kills a victim, and that this beast will be shamed when confronted by a young girl. They believe in a thousand other simple things. I ask of you a little of this childlike simplicity, and to bring us luck let me speak four truly magic words, childhood's “open sesame":Once Upon a Time...The gem of today's triple feature, Beauty and the Beast (1946) is the pinnacle of fantasy storytelling in film. Marrying Cocteau's multi-hyphenate interests in the poetic and the balletic, the film achieves the beauty of a stage play with the heightened specificity of what it means to make a film.It provides an exceptional bridge to understanding his other work: his varied interests and grounding in ‘20s-era surrealism with a literary bent.Today, we draw back the curtain on a life lived in the arts and celebrate three pieces of a storied career of a real master craftsman.First, we venture into The Blood of a Poet — perhaps the first poem film to make headway with international success. Because it is first, it can disregard histories, examples, and rule books, and is permitted to tell its own story uniquely in the text. Cocteau wrote, “To sum up, The Blood of a Poet and my new film Beauty and the Beast are aimed at the aficionados. It is true that I do not kill the bull according to the rules. But this contempt for the rules is accompanied by a contempt for the danger that excites a large number of people.”Poetic art is creation with regard to space and feeling, moved by the dance of the human spirit, and unconcerned with the linearity of rules. “Poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from the music,” Ezra Pound said. Like the myth of Orpheus who could sooth all animals and nature with his poetry of music, the film is equally connected. It has no false symbols or ornamentation that does not add punctuation. It doesn't have to mean anything, it just is.Crucially, composer Georges Auric is involved, who would score 11 films for Cocteau. His score is a remnant of his avant-garde period and thus embodies and directs the film with its certainty of purpose. His later works would become more populist as he worked hard to square his work with leftist political beliefs that could reach audiences.Georges Auric's compositions are the fundamental through-line between the three distinctly different films.In Beauty and the Beast and The Eagle with Two Heads, Cocteau has likewise found a more connective populist style. While the films begin to subscribe to the director's own rule book and definitions without relying on the past, they use familiar constructions and foundations to wildly different ends.Both are wondrously shot. The camera glides. The black and white is silver in its glow. The steady beauty of it all is overwhelming, singular, well considered.And yet, with accessibility, Cocteau remains poetic. His films still move smoothly over uncovered terrain and define the fairytale and romantic stories in ways they have simply never been visualized.His astute gift for defining the image with his camera and getting the most out of untrained actors pays dividends. The poetry sings. The films move with singular beauty. Open sesame. Them movies are poems all right.Cocteau has done a poet's job. The rest is literature.

Le Groupe des Six ? Voilà les musiciens qui ont occupé le devant de la scène artistique parisienne dans l'immédiat après-Première Guerre mondiale. Parrainés par Erik Satie et soutenus par Jean Cocteau, à la fois leur imprésario et leur éminence grise, les Six furent les porte-drapeaux de l'Esprit Nouveau qui soufflait alors sur Paris. Voix intermittentes du néoclassicisme hexagonal pour les uns, simples farceurs embobinant dans leurs canulars un public crédule et une critique complaisante pour les autres, ils ont marqué comme peu cette période d'effervescence, où tout semblait possible. Les Six, donc : Georges Auric, Louis Durey, Arthur Honegger, Darius Milhaud, Francis Poulenc et Germaine Tailleferre.

Featuring special guest and heist film aficionado Matt Clark (@TheMplsMatt)! This Ealing train keeps a-rolling with another comedy of errors! Alec Guinness (again?) is Dutch, a bean-counter who’s protected government gold for 20 years, quietly plotting ways to rip them off in a big way. His plan accelerates beyond sustainability when he meets Al, an artist-turned-tchotchke maker with dreams of pursuing his passion instead of stuffing tourists’ suitcases. What separates THE LAVENDER HILL MOB from the other films we’ve covered is its willingness to show us the solidarity shared between two (and then among four) criminals aspiring toward a better life – together – despite class objections.

For the first of my Black History Month episodes back in February, I did a program featuring the extraordinary artist Muriel Smith, who in 1943, while still a student at the Curtis Institute in Philadelphia, created the title role in Oscar Hammerstein II’s Carmen Jones, which used George Bizet’s opera as the springboard for a hybrid musical featuring an all-Black cast. After several other Broadway appearances (including in a revival of Marc Blitzstein’s The Cradle Will Rock, Muriel Smith moved to London, where she was featured in the “exotic” roles in the London premieres Rodgers and Hammerstein’s South Pacific and The King and I. For several years she was the toast of London, appearing on records, on radio, on television, and in concert, as well as singing Bizet’s gypsy in performances of Carmen at Covent Garden in 1957. Most of the currently extant examples of Smith’s singing are of popular music, which she performed with her unique blend of bel canto precision and pinpoint interpretive accuracy. I have recently gotten my hands on numerous rare 78s of Smith’s mid-1950’s pop records, as well as her 1953 EP, I’m in the Mood for Love, all of which are featured on this episode. I also share examples of her famous turns in musicals, capped with a rare recording of her singing Hugo Wolf’s “Nimmersatte Liebe.” Two excerpts from her 1955 Songs of Christmas 45 render this episode a veritable Christmas in July celebration! Musical guest stars include, among others, Marc Blitzstein, Georges Auric, Harvey Fuqua, Auyar Hosseini, Franz Waxman, Luther Saxon, Martin and Blane, Julian Bream, and the extraordinary Angela Morley. 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 classical and opera singers of the past and present with the help of guests from the classical music field: singers, conductors, composers, coaches, agents, and voice teachers. 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 interaction between singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

Movie Meltdown - Episode 364 This week we are coming to you "live" from Days of the Dead: Louisville, where we are joined once again by our special guest co-host Doug Bradley, as we discuss this week's Sofa Theater feature - The Innocents. This 1961 Gothic horror film stars Deborah Kerr, Martin Stephens, Megs Jenkins and happens to be one of Doug's favorite films. Join us as we discern just how much influence writer Truman Capote had on the movie as well as trying to decide... are these murderous children or are there actual ghosts in the house or is it all just the visions of a madwoman? Listen and come to your own conclusion. And as we divvy up the vegan cupcakes, we also mention... rewatching Stranger Things, H. P. Lovecraft, tea adverts, innocence destroys innocence, Megs Jenkins, The Turn of the Screw, sexual repression, deep focus, the great foil throughout, an X certificate, one step away from dying, I just throw some candy towards them, Georges Auric, that creepy song, turning down movie roles, a southern Gothic, Ron Perlman and Sir Christopher Plummer, a very dubious uncertain moral tone, a red herring, Martin Stephens, weird and disconnected, psycho sexual fantasy, Freddie Francis, a synthesized electronic sound, Martin Scorsese, a real tear, everything needs a little more placenta, the roses, I won't be your friend, how Freudian do you want to get?, the Redgrave clan, it's a vicious cycle of beauty and love, Mary-Kate and Ashley and the fate of Rupert. Spoiler Alert: Full spoilers (and lots of speculation) for Jack Clayton's The Innocents, so go watch it before you listen. You have been warned! "I was all about ghosts... when I was a kid."

“Don’t be frightened. It was only the wind, my dear." Thus far, our series to celebrate Halloween — the Naughty Children series — hasn’t really been that scary. “The Bad Seed” is labeled a crime/drama/horror but comes across a bit more as a comedy now with the over-the-top performances. “Village of the Damned” is labeled a horror/mystery/sci-fi but doesn’t have much in the way of horror. This week’s film, Jack Clayton’s 1961 film “The Innocents,” really feels like the first in the series that’s got real scares in it, and scares that still hold up today. Martin Scorsese even put it on his list of 11 most scary films. And a lot of that is because of the atmosphere Clayton and his screenwriters (mostly Truman Capote) created with this adaptation of Henry James’ “The Turn of the Screw.” Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we continue our Naughty Children series with “The Innocents.” We talk about how much each like this film — Andy as the veteran of the film and Pete as the newbie — any why it works so well. We chat about Deborah Kerr in a role that exemplifies the ambiguity in the story and how it works so well in context of the decaying nature Capote riddled throughout the screenplay. We talk about Jim Clark’s editing and Freddie Francis’ cinematography, as well as Georges Auric’s score, noting how well they each work to add to the atmosphere in this film. And we marvel at Martin Stephens’ performance here, vastly different (and superior) to his performance in “Village of the Damned.” It’s a brilliant film that we’re thrilled to add to our list, so check it out and then tune in! Film Sundries Original theatrical trailer Original Material Flickchart Trailers of the Week Andy’s Trailer: He Never Died — “Damn. This looks wickedly funny. And violent. And fun. Henry Rollins as the Biblical Cain? Sure, give me some." Pete’s Trailer: The Boy — “I’m not usually one for the horror, but this one cracks me up. Lauren Cohan is a treat to watch coming off of Walking Dead and though I forgot to mention it on the show, Stacey Miner’s screenplay looks great coming off his Black List entry Mixtape, also announced for production, and a really interesting read."

En 1919, un jeune compositeur français du nom de Darius Milhaud, qui n’est alors qu’un tout jeune homme de 23 ans, compose Cinéma-fantaisie, ébauche de ce qui va devenir le célèbre Boeuf sur le toit, créé à Paris le 21 février 1920. Il s’agit à l’origine d’une pièce pour violon et piano destinée à accompagner un film muet de Charlie Chaplin. Membre, avec notamment Georges Auric et Francis Poulenc, du tout nouveau Groupe des Six, dont le mentor est le poète et dandy Jean Cocteau, Milhaud a été marqué par l’influence de son aîné Erik Satie (1866-1925), dont il va pour ainsi dire poursuivre l’esprit surréaliste. Au même moment, de l’autre côté de la Manche, William Walton, « l’enfant terrible de la musique anglaise », signe Façade sur des poèmes d’Edith Sitwell, qui, au début des années 1920, joue à Londres un rôle analogue à celui de Cocteau à Paris. L’univers déjanté des enfants terribles de la musique française et anglaise rencontre celui des surréalistes avant la lettre. Guy Marchand, musicologue, et Guylaine Massoutre, professeure, auteure et critique littéraire, s’entretiennent avec l’animateur Stéphane Lépine
