Giuseppe Verdi – La donna è mobile uit Rigoletto 1851, Verdi schreef op 40 dagen tijd een nieuwe opera: Rigoletto met de beroemde aria La donna è mobile. De Italiaanse componist wist meteen dat hij een dikke hit had geschreven. Clara en Sander zingen deze oorwurm luid mee, tot ze de tekst eindelijk eens opzoeken. Want blijkbaar zingt het personage nogal wat vrouwonvriendelijke vuilbekkerij bij elkaar. En dan is er nog dit grote vraagstuk: wat is de link tussen Verdi en tomate-crevettes?

En este episodio de Detrás del telón, Gerardo Kleinburg explora el clásico de Giuseppe Verdi, Rigoletto, a través de tres lentes: el contexto sociopolítico de la ópera, su estilo y estructura musical, y su lugar en el arco creativo de Verdi como compositor.

Giuseppe Verdis spätes Meisterwerk über den afrikanischen Helden Otello, der durch eine rassistische Intrige Jagos zum Eifersuchtsmord an seiner Frau Desdemona getrieben wird, ist heute unter postkolonialen Perspektiven nicht unumstritten. Blackfacing geht gar nicht, wenngleich die schwere Titelpartie von meist weißen Sängern verkörpert wird. Die Staatsoper in Stuttgart will Verdis Meisterwerk nicht dekonstruieren, es auch nicht postkolonial verdammen, sondern es kritisch befragen und zugleich als großes Werk retten. Regisseurin Silvia Costa hat sich dafür den aus Ghana stammenden Videokünstler John Akomfrah mit ins Boot geholt und Stefano Montanari dirigiert.

We follow the convulsions of Italian society -- foreign invasion, popular revolution, peasant revolt, liberal reform, Romantic pageantry, diplomatic dirty dealings, and patriotic war -- through which the residents of a fragmented, poor, and backwards section of Europe overthrew the puppet regimes of foreign rulers and challenged the internal power of the Church, to seize control of their own destiny and create a new nation-state that would take its place among the major powers of the world.

Giuseppe Verdi: compositore italiano dell'Ottocento, autore di capolavori come Requiem, Rigoletto e La traviata, che hanno segnato la storia dell'opera.

President Trump’s attempts to freeze federal dollars for “sanctuary” jurisdictions were thwarted in court last week. Where is the battle headed?  The Supreme Court is considering two cases about public education this week. One involves the bar to prove discrimination related to disability, and the other involves state funding for a religious charter school. “Sinners” takes the box office for a second week, sparking debate about originality, biased media coverage, and what its success means for Hollywood’s future. Rufus Wainwright’s new album, “Dream Requiem,” is interwoven with Lord Byron’s poem “Darkness.” It’s partly inspired by Giuseppe Verdi, and is dedicated to Wainwright’s dog named Puccini.

Welke koers vaart Italië onder Giorgia Meloni? Zij staat nu voor een duivels dilemma. Donald of Ursula?Wie is Meloni, waarom zit zij vol schijnbare tegenstrijdigheden? Geëmancipeerd en reactionair. Kneiterrechts en steunpilaar van 'het midden' in Europa. Keihard in sociaal beleid, maar ook 'vrouw van het volk'. Vurig pro-Zelensky, maar ook partner van Poetins vazal Matteo Salvini. "Ik ben Giorgia. Een vrouw, een moeder, een Italiaanse." Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger schetsen een portret van Giorgia Meloni, volgens Politico ‘the most powerful person in Europe 2025'. En hoe je haar met al die contradicties pas kunt begrijpen als je Italië beter kent. Als land, als cultuur en als politiek fenomeen. ***Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken.

De complete tekst plus linkjes en een overzicht van al onze eerdere afleveringen vind je hier***Haar Fratelli d'italia werd de grootste partij nadat Salvini met zijn ultrarechtse Lega de regering opblies van Mario Draghi. De rechtse coalitie die toen kwam, was het laatste kunstje van Silvio Berlusconi.Meloni liet daarbij toen merken dat ze snapt hoe je moet onderhandelen, compromissen sluiten én - anders dan Wilders – dat je door de wol geverfde experts aan je kabinet moet verbinden. Ze regeert sindsdien stabiel, onder toezicht van president Sergio Mattarella en Draghi, zodat 'Brussel' er vertrouwen in heeft. Wel loopt haar coalitie een fors risico. Doordat Salvini's Lega instortte verliest hun verbond regelmatig regionale en grootstedelijke verkiezingen. Centrumlinkse combinaties winnen weer en ook partnerpartij Forza Italia van Berlusconi herleeft onverwacht. Dat is niet waar de Fratelli op hadden gerekend; dit kan Meloni's kabinet destabiliseren. De innerlijke tegenstrijdigheden in haar beleid en aanpak hangen nauw samen met de heel aparte - vaak eeuwenoude - Italiaanse politieke cultuur. In de lange geschiedenis was Italië nooit een eenheid; geen 'natiestaat', maar een lappendeken van versnipperde regio's en steden. De echte heersers waren vaak machtige vorsten van buiten, zoals de Habsburgers, de Fransen, de Spanjaarden. Na Napoleon en het Weens Congres van 1815 kwam door het verlichtingsideaal en de Romantiek een links en liberaal nationalisme op; vijandig tegen buitenlandse heersers. De bloedbaden tijdens opstanden en burgeroorlogen waren gruwelijk. Wie nu enthousiast meeklapt met de Radetzkymars beseft niet wat voor massamoordenaar daarmee bejubeld wordt. Pas na 1860 slaagde de nationale beweging en werd het land verenigd. Opera's van de liberale nationalist Giuseppe Verdi waren daarvoor een bron van inspiratie. Het politieke compromis was de vorming van één koninkrijk, maar met behoud van grote regionale variëteiten. "Alles moet veranderen opdat alles blijft als het is", was het motto over deze jaren in de roman De Tijgerkat.Benito Mussolini bracht na de Eerste Wereldoorlog twee autoritaire emoties aan de macht. Rancune, een bitter gevoel van verraad, en imperialistische dromen, alsof men het oude Rome zou herstellen. Il Duce mislukte in alles, maar de Italianen zijn meer Japan dan Duitsland in de verwerking van dat verleden: ze kijken maar liever weg. Meloni en haar Fratelli hebben vanuit dit verleden diepe wortels van onverwerkte frustraties in politiek en cultuur. Dat vat vol tegenstrijdigheden is dan ook in de loop van vele eeuwen gevuld. Toen de Muur viel kwam Silvio Berlusconi als de man van de nieuwe politiek, hij speelde de succesvolle ondernemer die wel even schoon schip kwam maken. Hij was en blijft 'het origineel' van populisten als Pim Fortuyn en nu Donald Trump. Toen Meloni ging regeren, brak de 'post-Silvio'-fase aan. Hij stierf en Poetin begon zijn oorlog. Zij bouwde een tot nog toe stabiele regering - iets heel bijzonders in Rome! - steunde Kyiv en voerde de hervormingen uit die Mario Draghi had geformuleerd.Zeg niet dat haar innerlijke tegenstrijdigheden saai en voorspelbaar zijn. Ze blijft verrassen.***Verder luisteren494 - Trumps aanval op de geschiedenis en de geest van Amerika488 - Het Congres van Wenen (1814-1815) als briljant machtsspel484 - Hoe Trump chaos veroorzaakt en de Europeanen in elkaars armen drijft450 - Keizerin Ursula II447 - Als Trump wint staat Europa er alleen voor446 - Doe wat Draghi zegt of Europa wacht een langzame doodsstrijd432 – Verkiezingen Europees Parlement 2024: het midden houdt stand427 - Europa wordt een grootmacht en daar moeten we het over hebben387 - Niets is zó politiek als opera - 100 jaar Maria Callas356 - Sivio Berlusconi, het einde van een tijdperk223 - De degelijke daadkracht van Mario Draghi's Italië***Tijdlijn00:00:00 – Deel 100:42:38 – Deel 201:03:52 – Deel 301:29:33 – Einde Zie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In case you haven't heard it, the piece is a highly operatic setting of the historic Catholic funeral Mass, composed by the irreligious Giuseppe Verdi to mourn the death of his closest friend.   The music was exquisite, the performers were among the most talented in the world, and I was comfy in a seat in the lavish Avery Fisher Hall. But one thing set my experience apart from most of my fellow music lovers': I believed in every word the singers were delivering — even if the singers didn't and Verdi himself had not.   One part of the text of the Dies Irae seems plucked from our current headlines: The section that centers on evils getting exposed, driven into the light. At the General Judgment, every sin ever committed will be unmasked for all to see — so that both God's justice and His mercy will be obvious to each soul ever created.   Nature sickens with dismay, Death may not retain its prey; And before the Maker stand All the creatures of his hand. The great book shall be unfurled, Whereby God shall judge the world; What was distant shall be near, What was hidden shall be clear.   We are seeing before us today in our country a faint foreshadowing of that great, world-ending exposé. The corruption, perversion, waste, and even hate that pervaded our government agencies and the institutions led by our self-selecting elites are all getting driven out into the light, thanks to the stern measures imposed by President Donald Trump.   Please Support The Stream: Equipping Christians to Think Clearly About the Political, Economic, and Moral Issues of Our Day. Neither a Spirit of Fear Nor of Vengeance No, Trump isn't God, or even especially godly as far as we can tell. That bothers me for his sake, but not for ours. Constantine saved the early Church from persecution despite his personal sins, and Charles Martel saved Europe from the Muslim hordes with the bloodstained hands of a war lord. However, insofar as a legitimate earthly ruler wields the sword on God's behalf, becoming “the legitimate avenger of crimes,” a just ruler can do God's will as surely as the Church does in its own quite separate sphere.   As we watch the violent antics and lawless abuses of power by the Left unfold in response to Trump's perfectly reasonable efforts to trim down the government and cease its persecution of ordinary citizens, we shouldn't be consumed with worry, afraid he will fail. Nor should we give in to a spirit of vindictiveness, taking a sadistic glee in the suffering of our enemies, however well-deserved.   Instead I think we ought to treat this political moment as a little window on the end of time, when every evil is dragged kicking and screaming into the light, even our own. As we pray for this great purge of political filth to fully succeed for the benefit of our nation and our neighbors, keeping such an apocalyptic perspective will help us avoid falling into the Enemy's snares, which he scatters plentifully both on the Left and on the Right.   With all of that said, let's review some of the skeletons the Trump team is tossing or driving out of our oligarchs' reeking closets.   Road Ragers and Vandals Target Tesla Owners and Their “Nazi Cars” The kind of people who pride themselves on their “compassion” for illegal immigrants, sexual eccentricities, and the government of Ukraine are showing much less tolerance and charity for their fellow Americans — targeting not just people who disagree with them politically, but total strangers who happened to buy a certain brand of car. Owners of Teslas who might not have cared or even known about Elon Musk's political views are now getting menaced on highways, seeing their vehicles vandalized, and otherwise living in fear. Here's one of the worst incidents:   Cowardly attacks on unattended Teslas are happening across the country, quite possibly as part of a coordinated effort along the lines of the Antifa and Black Lives Matter protests that savaged America's cities five years ago. And our chattering classes are gibbering their approval like a squadron of flying monkeys, as Joe Rogan reports:   Trying to Commit Murder by Police Other violence aimed at conservatives and Christians entails the criminal abuse of police that's colloquially called “SWATting.” That entails making an anonymous call from an untraceable phone to the police, claiming that an “active shooter” is present at the home of some political enemy — then sitting back and watching the news to find out if you successfully got that person, his spouse, or his children gunned down by the cops. Who's getting subjected to such attacks? One victim was gifted Christian author Larry Taunton:   Gateway Pundit reports on another potentially grim incident:   InfoWars host Owen Shroyer became the latest victim of a “swatting” incident at his home in Austin, Texas in what he calls a “terrorist attack” perpetrated by leftist extremists.   A fake police report claiming Shroyer had shot someone led to a full-blown armed raid on his residence, with at least a dozen officers storming his home with weapons drawn. …   Shroyer pointed fingers directly at the Democrat Party, naming names and calling for federal authorities to act.   “We know what's going on. The Democrat Party and all of their little street thugs — funded by Act Blue, stolen money from USAID, George Soros, and other groups — are behind it. They are behind the terror attacks against Elon Musk,” he said.   Keep in mind that just two weeks ago Shroyer's colleague, Jamie White, was murdered while on assignment reporting about leftist political violence.   Let's offer prayers of gratitude for the professionalism of the police who managed these incidents, and for protection of nonviolent American citizens just trying to go about their lives at a time when a spirit of savagery seems to have been let loose on our nation.   Canceling Elections Our elites aren't quite at the point where they can just cancel elections and jail the conservative candidate, as recently happened in Romania (perhaps with the collusion of American Deep State conspirator Anthony Blinken, according to Diplomatic Affairs.) Our political class was blindsided by Trump's 2016 win, and responded by spraying our media with the manufactured filth of the faked Steele Dossier to push the hoax that Trump was somehow “colluding” with Vladimir Putin's Russia — a charge that led to one of the two fraudulent impeachment efforts aimed at Trump. Here's the great Natalie Winters of Bannon's War Room confronting Christopher Steele himself, and it's glorious to hear a smart conservative be permitted to speak her mind without getting interrupted or shouted down. Just watch his face go from smugness to something approaching shame as Winters holds him accountable.   The Russia collusion hoax, with its associated faked prosecutions of Trump allies such as General Mike Flynn, Roger Stone, and others, effectively derailed his first term in office. The COVID panic permitted the Democrats to steal his second term in 2020. Now having failed (thanks to the efforts of shadowy patriots on whom Emerald Robinson has reported) to steal the 2024 race, our oligarchs are trying to nullify its effects via a full-scale judicial coup against the executive branch of government. Thanks to Gov. Ron DeSantis for calling this crime out and suggesting one realistic remedy:   As the author of the Dies Irae, channeling sacred scripture, promised us:   What was distant shall be near, What was hidden shall be clear.   Along The Stream … Later today, don't miss this eye-opening video from Apologetics Roadshow on the new, openly racist criminal sentencing policies in Great Britain, imposed to protect Muslim immigrants and punish native citizens.   Don't miss Jules Gomes' thoughtful piece this morning, “Only Radical Christianity Can Defeat Radical Islam.”    John Zmirak is a senior editor at The Stream and author or co-author of ten books, including The Politically Incorrect Guide to Immigration and The Politically Incorrect Guide to Catholicism. He is co-author with Jason Jones of “God, Guns, & the Government.”   John Zmirak's new book: No Second Amendment, No First  by John Zmirak  Available March 19, 2024 Today's Left endlessly preaches the evils of “gun violence." It is a message increasingly echoed from the nation's pulpits, presented as common-sense decency and virtue. Calls for “radical non-violence” are routinely endowed with the imprimatur of religious doctrine.   But what if such teachings were misguided, even damaging? What if the potential of a citizenry to exercise force against violent criminals and tyrannical governments is not just compatible with church teaching, but flows from the very heart of Biblical faith and reason? What if the freedoms we treasure are intimately tied to the power to resist violent coercion?  This is the long-overdue case John Zmirak makes with stunning clarity and conviction in No Second Amendment, No First. A Yale-educated journalist and former college professor, Zmirak shows how the right of self-defense against authoritarian government was affirmed in both the Old and New Testaments, is implied in Natural Law, and has been part of Church tradition over the centuries.                 The Brew: Judicial Tyranny Edition In case you thought that the JFK files declassification turned up mostly a bunch of nothingburgers, Rep.

"Carletto, undici sani, meglio. Mi amor por Giuseppe Verdi y Sofia Loren me permite dominar el italiano..."

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.

Rufus Wainwright is a difficult artist to categorize at the best of times. As a musician, he's recorded pop songs, folk music, operas and stage musicals. But his new album, “Dream Requiem,” is a little different, even for him. It's a religious work inspired by a range of subjects, including a poem by Lord Byron, the music of Giuseppe Verdi, and his beloved late dog Puccini. He also managed to recruit Meryl Streep to narrate the project. Rufus joins Tom Power over Zoom to talk about the different influences behind “Dream Requiem,” his upbringing in Quebec, and how this project really mourns the death of the American Dream.

We sit down with author Howard Smith to discuss his latest novel, "Viva Verdi & Violetta." This immersive historical tale dives deep into the life and struggles of Giuseppe Verdi, his muse Giuseppina Strepponi, and the revolutionary fervor of the Italian Risorgimento of the mid-19th century. Told through the watchful, and witty, mind of his close friend, a restaurateur and retired opera singer, the novel brings to life Verdi's rise as a composer, the artistic and political battles of 19th-century Italy, and the resistance against Austrian occupation. Smith takes us behind the curtain, revealing Verdi's encounters with freedom fighters like Garibaldi and the dramatic cultural shifts that shaped his operatic masterpieces. There's also a lot of about food and culture in this transformative time. Tune in for a captivating discussion on music, history, and the timeless power of storytelling!

This Day in Legal History: Gary Gilmore ExecutedOn January 17, 1977, Gary Gilmore was executed by firing squad in Utah, becoming the first person to be put to death in the United States after a 10-year pause in capital punishment. This execution followed the Supreme Court's landmark 1976 decision in Gregg v. Georgia, which reinstated the death penalty under revised statutes that addressed prior concerns about arbitrariness and fairness. Gilmore had been convicted of two murders committed during robberies in Utah and notably refused to appeal his death sentence, demanding instead that it be carried out promptly.His case drew significant public and media attention, particularly as it coincided with the reopening of the death penalty debate in the U.S. After the Supreme Court's 1972 decision in Furman v. Georgia temporarily invalidated capital punishment, states had revised their laws to provide more structured sentencing guidelines. Gilmore's execution marked the first test of those reforms.The event reignited intense national debates over the morality, fairness, and efficacy of capital punishment. Proponents argued that it served as a deterrent and a just response to heinous crimes, while critics questioned its alignment with human rights principles and pointed to racial and socioeconomic disparities in its application. The firing squad method itself sparked further controversy over humane execution practices.Gilmore's case also influenced popular culture, inspiring Norman Mailer's Pulitzer Prize-winning book The Executioner's Song. His willingness to accept the penalty became a focal point in discussions about agency and justice within the death penalty system. The debates sparked by his execution continue to shape U.S. legal discourse, reflecting unresolved tensions over capital punishment in the American legal system.Pam Bondi, Trump's pick for attorney general, disclosed a net worth of $12.2 million, including nearly $3 million in Trump Media shares received after the public debut of Truth Social's parent company last year. Her financial disclosures, submitted during the Senate confirmation process, revealed significant earnings linked to Trump-related entities since leaving public service in 2019. Bondi earned $1.1 million as a lobbyist with Ballard Partners, a firm led by Trump fundraiser Brian Ballard, and $520,000 from the Trump-affiliated America First Policy Institute.She also reported earning $203,738 in 2024 as a lawyer with Panza, Maurer & Maynard, where her clients included Pfizer. Bondi's stake in Trump Media Technology Group includes $3 million in stock and warrants valued at $3.9 million as of December 2024, acquired as compensation for consulting services. Her financial disclosures showed $1.7 million in liabilities, largely from real estate mortgages and notes payable to relatives. Democrats expressed concerns about her close ties to Trump during her Senate hearing, questioning her independence if confirmed as attorney general.Trump AG Pick Bondi Discloses $3 Million in Truth Social StockDemocratic attorneys general are preparing to defend key Biden administration policies as Donald Trump is set to begin his second term as president. With Trump's plans to reverse rules on immigration, the environment, and transgender rights, AGs from over a dozen states, including California, New Jersey, and Michigan, have moved to intervene in legal cases. One major effort involves defending a Biden rule providing health insurance to immigrants brought to the U.S. as children, which is currently challenged by Republican AGs.These Democratic coalitions are also seeking to uphold Biden-era regulations on environmental protections, gun dealers, and firearm devices that allow rapid firing. New Jersey AG Matt Platkin emphasized their focus on protecting residents' rights and ensuring Trump's administration adheres to the rule of law. This strategy mirrors actions during Trump's first term when Democratic AGs filed 155 lawsuits against his policies, achieving an 83% success rate. However, the current legal landscape presents new challenges, with a more conservative judiciary shaped by Trump's earlier appointments. Democratic AG offices, however, are now more experienced, having honed their strategies in prior legal battles. Political experts anticipate numerous lawsuits targeting executive actions Trump may issue early in his term.Democratic states brace for Trump by launching defense of Biden policies | ReutersIn the latest development of the ongoing saga surrounding 97-year-old Judge Pauline Newman, the Federal Circuit's Judicial Council has dismissed her appeal against suspension as "meritless." In a brief filed with the DC Circuit, the Council, alongside the Department of Justice, argued that Newman's claim—that her suspension amounts to unconstitutional removal without impeachment—should be rejected under the Judicial Conduct and Disability Act.Judge Newman, the oldest active federal judge, was suspended after refusing to cooperate with an investigation into her mental fitness. Her second one-year suspension from hearing new cases remains in effect, though the government maintains it is not permanent and could be lifted if she agrees to participate in the inquiry. Newman has challenged the suspension through administrative proceedings and an appeal in the DC Circuit, where her court, known for its jurisdiction over patent cases, is also located.The brief, representing Chief Judge Kimberly A. Moore and the Judicial Council, asserts that Congress distinguishes temporary suspensions from removal. Newman's legal team, the New Civil Liberties Alliance, continues to argue her case.97-Year-Old Judge's Suspension Appeal 'Meritless,' Council SaysThe Biden administration will leave enforcement of the TikTok ban to the incoming Trump administration, signaling no immediate action to force the app offline when a new law targeting the platform takes effect. While TikTok itself could shut down to highlight the law's impact on its 170 million U.S. users, the Biden administration stated it will not enforce the ban, instead emphasizing that TikTok should operate under American ownership. The law imposes penalties on tech companies like Apple and Google if they continue providing services to TikTok while it remains under ByteDance's ownership, exposing them to significant financial risk. However, any delay in enforcement would require the president to grant an extension under strict conditions, none of which TikTok has met. Efforts in Congress to extend the deadline have stalled, with security concerns raised by lawmakers like Senator Tom Cotton blocking attempts to provide ByteDance with more time to divest.President-elect Trump has signaled openness to negotiating a resolution to keep TikTok operational, citing its value to his campaign and young voters. Discussions within his team include a potential executive order to delay the ban while exploring ways to safeguard user data. The Supreme Court has yet to issue a ruling on the law, though justices have expressed concerns about national security risks tied to TikTok's Chinese ownership. Meanwhile, Democratic leaders, including Senator Chuck Schumer, are urging further action to balance security, privacy, and the platform's continued availability.Biden administration will leave it to Trump to implement TikTok ban - ABC NewsThis week's closing theme is by Giuseppe Verdi (1813-1901). Verdi is one of the most celebrated composers in the history of opera, renowned for his ability to blend dramatic storytelling with deeply emotive music. A central figure in 19th-century Italian opera, Verdi's works, including La Traviata, Rigoletto, and Aida, remain staples of the repertoire worldwide. His music often reflected his passion for Italian nationalism and human emotion, making his operas timeless in their appeal. Among his earliest triumphs was Nabucco (1842), a work that established him as a leading composer and marked the start of his long and illustrious career.Nabucco, Verdi's third opera, tells the story of the plight of the Israelites under the rule of the Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar (Nabucco). Its overture, a brilliant instrumental prelude, captures the opera's dramatic intensity and stirring themes. The piece begins with ominous, foreboding chords that hint at the struggles to come, followed by a sweeping and heroic melody that reflects the resilience and hope central to the story. The overture's dynamic shifts and richly textured orchestration showcase Verdi's ability to infuse orchestral music with the same dramatic power found in his vocal writing.Notably, Nabucco became a symbol of Italian unification during the Risorgimento, with its famous chorus "Va, pensiero" resonating as an anthem of liberation. While the overture does not include this iconic melody, it captures the essence of the opera's emotional and political undertones. As this week's closing theme, the Nabucco overture offers a perfect blend of drama, passion, and triumph, embodying Verdi's mastery and the timeless power of his music.Without further ado, Giuseppe Verdi's overture from Nabucco.

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.

Vita e curiosità su Galileo e Galilei - Spendieren Sie einen Cafè (1€)? Donate a coffee (1€)? https://ko-fi.com/italiano Livello B1Buongiorno cari amici e amanti dell'italiano e benvenuti all'episodio numero 161. Torniamo a parlare di personaggi famosi. Voi sapete che abbiamo parlato di artisti come Giuseppe Verdi, Caravaggio, Benvenuto Cellini e poi anche di donne come Artemisia Gentileschi e poi abbiamo parlato di persone che hanno fatto la storia nella politica, nella società, nella pedagogia italiana. Bene oggi voglio parlarvi di un personaggio storico, pioniere della fisica e dell'astronomia e cioè: signore e signori vi presento Galileo Galilei.Galilei nasce a Pisa, in Toscana, il 15 febbraio del 1564. Proviene da un'antica famiglia, famosa e importante ma ormai decaduta e che si trova in gravi difficoltà economiche. Il padre, musicista lo porta a studiare. Le sue passioni però sono considerate in famiglia troppo teoriche anche perché hanno bisogno di guadagnare soldi, ma, pur non rinunciando a studiare, si dedica ad inventare cose che gli portano successo. Inventa molti strumenti di misurazione scientifica, come per esempio il compasso geometrico per usi militari e un termoscopio, conosciuto anche come termometro galileiano, un termometro che misura la temperatura. Questo termometro e un cilindro di vetro, riempito di alcool. All'interno ci sono delle ampolle riempite a loro volta di un liquido colorato con delle targhette dove si legge la temperatura. Quando si raggiunge l'equilibrio termico è possibile leggere la temperatura atmosferica....The full transcript of this Episode is available via "Luisa's learn Italian Premium", Premium is no subscription and does not incur any recurring fees.

Typisch für die Küche im Norden Italiens ist ein Risotto. Der Reis, der in der Poebene angebaut wird, ist die Grundlage dieses Essens, das in verschiedenen Variationen auf die Teller kommt. Eine der schlichtesten davon ist der Risotto alla Milanese, auf Mailänder Art. Und eines der besten Rezepte dafür stammt aus der Feder von Giuseppe Verdi, dem heimlichen Risottokönig.

Last week, absorbed in preparations for my own birthday, I passed over the birthday of the great Giuseppe Verdi, born 10 October 1813. Two years ago I produced a pair of Verdi episodes, and today I feature the one first published as a bonus episode at that time, which features duets from Luisa Miller, Il Trovatore, La Traviata, Rigoletto, Otello, and Falstaff. In the spirit of my two recent episodes “Requiescat” and “In Pace,” I had the brilliant idea of highlighting great Verdi singers (and one conductor) who died in Octobers past, including: Joan Sutherland (October 10, 2010); Eleanor Steber (October 3, 1990); Montserrat Caballé (October 6, 2018); Vladislav Piavko (October 6, 2020); Rosanna Carteri (October 25, 2020); Leonard Bernstein (October 14, 1990); Walter Berry (October 27, 2000); Franco Bonisolli (October 30, 2003); Edita Gruberová (October 18, 2021); Ingvar Wixell (October 8, 2011); and Rolando Panerai (October 22, 2019). Heard alongside these musicians are the blazingly talented John Alexander, Sherrill Milnes, Leonard Warren, Irina Arkhipova, Mario del Monaco, Anselmo Colzani, Regina Resnik, Margherita Rinaldi, Giorgio Zancanaro, Luigi Alva, Judith Raskin, and Mattiwilda Dobbs. Live performances are featured alongside soundtrack recordings from three different operatic films, as well as a few rare studio recordings ensure that the great Giuseppe receives sufficient, if belated, accolades.
