1st published 1875The Shadow of Calvary is a classic of Christian literature in which Hugh Martin leads us through the garden of Gethsemane to the arrest and the trial of Jesus. Martin interprets these events in the light of the fulfillment of the Scriptures. Chance is that you do not entirely understand what Calvary meant to Jesus. Here Martin leads us through the biblical account of Calvary taking you through every step of the Shadow of Calvary. Most modern preaching and writing simply scraps the surface of God's Word, Martin reaches the heart of the sacrifice and love shown on the cross.

Hoewel kerst veelal geassocieerd wordt met de warmte en gezelligheid van het samenkomen met familie en vrienden, ervaart niet iedereen kerstmis als the most wonderful time of the year. Kerst kan namelijk ook als eenzaam worden ervaren, of als erg stressvol – bijvoorbeeld door de verhitte gesprekken tijdens het kerstdiner. Op welke wijze (kerst)muziek ons stressgevoel tijdens de niet zo hap-happiest season of all kan reduceren, en hoe vaktherapie zich binnen het domein van de psychologie en de psychiatrie onderscheidt van andere vormen van therapeutische interventies, bespreekt redacteur Emerence Kapteijn in deze kerstspecial van Radio Swammerdam met dr. Martina de Witte (University of Melbourne). Zij onderzoekt zowel de effectiviteit van muziekinterventies als waarom, hoe en wanneer muziektherapeutische interventies effectief zijn. Met een column van Job Korte.

Stephanie Bastek has been with The American Scholar for 10 years, where she is now senior editor. She hosts and produces the magazine's Smarty Pants podcast, with has just returned with a new miniseries called “Exploding the Canon” about the student protests at her alma mater, Reed College, over the mandatory freshmen humanities course eight years ago. The American Scholar plays a unique role in the literary-journalism realm: its writings often offer a response to newsworthy events but may do through an interdisciplinary approach that weaves in history or literature, for example, and aims to be far-ranging and reflective. In this episode, the first essay we focus on is Hugh Martin's “Shooting a Dog” from the Winter 2024 issue. Set in Iraq, it invokes a parallel to George Orwell's essay “Shooting an Elephant” set in what was then called Burma. In each case, the supposedly superior Westerner fears being seen as a fool by those he lords over. Similar tensions involving masculine pride, patriotism, and more, surface here. A second essay being covered is “The Lives of Bryan” by Jennifer Sinor from the Summer 2023 issue. The author's brother has had four previous brushes with death, before a heart attack ends his life. A distraught father's insistence that what Bryan has hoarded in his mobile equates to “throwing away a piece of your brother,” brings up issues of loss, transience, and the uncertain vagaries we all try to navigate as best we can. “An Outrage Sacred to the Gods” by Greg Afinogenov from the Winter 2024 issue explores his father's death, and the role of alcoholism as a death wish that the author struggles to overcome in his own life. With “I'll Be Seeing You” by Patricia Hampl from the Spring 2023 issue, being an outsider is front and center. Hampl has made a pilgrimage to visit a close associate of the writer Katherine Mansfield, only to be rebuffed, leading to a more fruitful connection with her guide for the occasion, an editor whose “pure homosexual” accent places him, like his American visitor, outside England's class structure.

We have a Christmas confession. Honestly, we don't really care that much for Christmas music. Oh, we're not scrooges or anything — well, a few of us are — but mainly it's just the nature of Christmas songs themselves. The chord patterns are not especially easy to remember, and since you do them only a few days or weeks every year, you don't get a chance to get real cozy with them. Plus, well, frankly Christmas tunes generally don't swing. (Put a beat behind “Little Town of Bethlehem” and there will be repercussions….) But here's one that does fit the Flood groove nicely, especially when the merriest of our merry band — Danny Cox and Floodster Emerita Michelle Hoge — lead the way.About the SongWritten in 1943 as a vehicle for Judy Garland in the MGM musical Meet Me in St. Louis, “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” was later recorded by Frank Sinatra with modified lyrics and quickly became part of America's standard Christmas set list on radios across the nation.In fact, ASCAP regularly ranks it among the five most performed Christmas song each year, along with “Santa Claus is Coming to Town,” “Winter Wonderland,” “Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!” and The Christmas Song.”MGM hired Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane to write several songs for its movie, which gave “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” a memorable setup.In the scene in which the song is debuted, a family is distraught by the father's plans to move to New York City for a job promotion, leaving behind their beloved St. Louis home. It is Christmas Eve and Judy Garland's character sings the song to cheer up her despondent baby sister.ControversiesAlthough Ralph Blane is credited with writing the music for many of Hugh Martin's songs, Martin later claimed in his autobiography that he wrote both music and lyrics to all of the songs in this movie."I was reasonably content to let him receive equal screen credit, sheet music credit, ASCAP royalties, etc.,” Martin wrote, “mainly because this bizarre situation was caused by my naive and atrocious lack of business acumen."If Martin was indeed doing double duty on the songs, it might explain why he had so much trouble with this particular tune. For instance, before filming began, some of Martin's original lyrics were rejected by director Vincente Minnelli, who found them depressing.Martin wrote several changes to make the song more upbeat. In particular, the lines "…. It may be your last / Next year we may all be living in the past" became "Let your heart be light / Next year all our troubles will be out of sight.”Swinging the SeasonWhile Judy Garland sang it straight — very straight — in the movie, “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” started swinging with Sinatra's 1948 treatment. Since then, many others — from Ella Fitzgerald and Lena Horne in the ‘60s to Joe Williams and Mel Tormé in the 1990s — have heeded the call of those cool chords to make the song jazzier.In 2009, Keyshia Cole even reached number 58 on the Hot R&B/Hip Hop Songs chart with her take on the tune.More Christmas Tunes?Finally, if one song is not sufficient fuel for your current Christmas spirit, we have a booster pack for you. Check our the “La Flood Navidad” playlist in our free Radio Floodango music streaming service. (In fact, we've just added our 2023 take on “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” to be its lead-off track.)For that yuletide playlist, we've culled bits of audio recorded over the past dozen years by The Flood as well as by a half dozen Flood friends. Guest artists include Ritch Collins, Ron Sowell, Jim Rumbaugh, Karen Combs, Mike Smith and Randy Brown.Enjoy, and Merry Christmas to us every one! This is a public episode.

This is the seventh and final episode in my series of conversations with author OLIVER SODEN regarding his recent book: MASQUERADE: THE LIVES OF NOEL COWARD This week we explore the final chapters of both Coward's life and this brilliant biography. Remarkably, during the final decade of his life Coward wrote the book, music & lyrics for two Broadway musicals — SAIL AWAY (starring Elaine Stritch) and THE GIRL WHO CAME TO SUPPER (Starring Jose Ferer & Florence Henderson), and directed HIGH SPIRITS (with book, music & lyrics by Hugh Martin & Timothy Gray and starring Tammy Grimes & Beatrice Lillie) which was based on Coward's play Blithe Spirit. At the same time he enjoyed an extraordinary revival of his status as a playwright of including landmark productions of PRIVATE LIVES and HAY FEVER as the first play by a living author to be presented at the National Theatre, and culminating in a remarkable trio of new plays under the title of SUITE IN THREE KEYS that he wrote and starred in. And I feel certain that you will find Soden's account of Coward's final public appearance, with Marlene Dietrich on his arm, at a special performance of the hit off-Broadway revue Oh, Coward! to be very moving.

This podcast covers New Girl Season 3, Episode 18, Sister III, which originally aired on March 4, 2014 and was written by Camilla Blackett and directed by Jay Chandrasekhar. Here's a quick recap of the episode:In our third episode with Abby, Jess gets upset when she thinks that Abby and Schmidt are further along in their relationship than her and Nick, so they move in together. Meanwhile, Cece, and her new best friend Coach, are suspicious of Abby and try to get Schmidt to see it too.We discuss Pop Culture References such as:Garbage Pail Kids - Nick told Winston that Jess makes him put his Garbage Pail Kids in a box.The Little Match Girl - When Nick was wearing his nightshirt, Jess said he looked like the Little Match Girl. Additional Pop Culture References such as:[Nora] Ephron - Schmidt shared he needed a break from “Snora” Ephron. Nora Ephron was an American journalist, writer, and filmmaker who is best known for her romantic comedy films and was nominated three times for the Writers Guild of America Award and the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay for the movies Silkwood, When Harry Met Sally..., and Sleepless in Seattle. Ephron also directed films including her own screenplays like Sleepless in Seattle and You've Got Mail, both starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks.[The Trolley Song by Judy Garland] - Jess sang a portion of this song when she was in the hotel room, singing “Clang, clang, clang went the trolley | Ring, ring, ring went the bell”. "The Trolley Song'' is a song written by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane and made famous by Judy Garland in the 1944 film Meet Me in St. Louis. Blane and Martin were nominated for and lost the Academy Award for Best Original Song at the 1945 Academy Awards, for "The Trolley Song". The song was ranked #26 by the American Film Institute in 2004 on the AFI's 100 Years...100 Songs list. We also mention a fun fact about this song in our Trivia section in the podcast. Children of Men - Schmidt was concerned they hit a car in a neighborhood where it looked like they filmed Children of Men. Children of Men is a 2006 dystopian action thriller film co-written and directed by Alfonso Cuarón. The screenplay was based on P. D. James's 1992 novel The Children of Men, which takes place in 2027 when two decades of human infertility have left society on the brink of collapse.This episode, we discuss who is most likely to make their own jewelry, move in to prove a point, sleuth to find out what someone is up to, and be ready for rapidfire questions. We also cover the scene between Nick and Schmidt around the Iroquois throat band Abby gifted Schmidt as our “Schmidtism”. For “Not in the 2020s” we talk about Winston's comments to the little boy and Nick pantsing Winston. We also discuss Cece apologizing to Schmidt as our “Yes in the 2020s”. Additionally, we explore the career of Ericka Kreutz (Elevator Woman), the guest star of this episode.Also in this episode were the following guest stars who we do not discuss in the podcast: Stone Eisenmann (Young Nick - Previously Discussed in S2E13), Jordan Fuller (Young Winston - Previously Discussed in S2E13), Linda Cardellini (Abby Day - Previously Discussed in S3E16), and Connie Sawyer (Oldest Woman in the World).We did not find the bear this episode.While not discussed in the podcast, we noted other references in this episode including:Iroquois - Schmidt clarifies that the jewelry that Abby made him is an Iroquois throat band. The Iroquois are of the Iroquoian people who are Indigenous to the Northeastern Woodlands and the Great Lakes of North America. The Iroquois Confederacy was believed to be founded between 1450 and 1660 by bringing together five different nations in the southern Great Lakes area, with each nation having its own language, territory, and function.Byzantine - When Jess is in the hotel, she asks if there are any films in the Byzantine era. The Byzantine Empire was the continuation of the Roman Empire in the East, continuing after the fall of the Western Roman Empire. It existed until the fall of Constantinople in 1453 to the Ottoman Empire. At the time, it was called the Roman Empire and only became called by the term “Byzantine” after the end of the realm. Approximately this time period covers 395 CE to 1453.Ethel Kennedy - In this episode, Jess tells Abby her insecurities around Nick and mentions that while she went to the hotel by herself, she watched a documentary about Ethel Kennedy. Ethel Kennedy is known for being an American human rights advocate and the widow of the late Robert F. Kennedy. She founded a non-profit charity and in 2014 was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom.When Jess and Nick are agreeing that they shouldn't live together, they mention both the pilgrims and the Plymouth Rock Massacre.Plymouth Rock - While there wasn't actually a massacre, Plymouth Rock is the site that marked where the Plymouth Colony was founded in December of 1620 when the Mayflower landed in the “New World”.Pilgrim - A pilgrim is used to describe a traveler who goes on a journey to a holy place. In this case, it referred to the Pilgrim Fathers who came to North America on the Mayflower to escape religious persecution in England.This episode got a 7/10 rating from both Kritika and Kelly; Kritika's favorite character was Cece and Kelly's favorite was Coach.Thanks for listening and stay tuned for Episode 19!Music: "Hotshot” by scottholmesmusic.comFollow us on Twitter, Instagram or email us at whosthatgirlpod@gmail.com!Website: https://smallscreenchatter.com/

OUTLINE Judas's kiss Peter's zeal Jesus's rebuke INTRODUCTION We come to the story of the greatest betrayal in history, the betrayal of Judas. Judas's act was so wicked that his name is now a proverb, when someone betrays us we call them a ‘Judas'. Despite this section describing the worst act a human being has ever done against the Savior, we are not viewing Christ as a victim but as the God appointed Suffering Savior. Someone has asked the question: if Christ only needed to die for our sins, why then did He have to be arrested, tried, tortured as well as killed as a criminal? I love how Hugh Martin helps us to see what we are looking at here: ‘The anger of the invisible God against the invisible soul of the man Christ Jesus could not be beheld by mortal eye. But [that] the world might be constrained to behold it as in a glass. And hence, to set it forth as if in unmistakable and terrible sacramental signs and seals, in and with which to the experience of the soul of Emmanuel the unseen process of His Father’s wrath was being carried on, the Father wielded at His pleasure, in infinite holiness, the official authority of those in high places of the land; put in requisition all forms of competent and legal order in criminal procedure; sacramentally, as it were, prosecuted the surety by awaking and employing against Him all the constituted functions of “the powers that be” and which are “ordained of God,” every one in his place the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath.” Hence the oracle which we hear resounding both at the commencement and the close of this process we ought to accept as justifying and explaining all that takes place...

Will our troubles really be "out of sight" next Christmas? The Bible doesn't say that. We are those who live knowing that "in this world you will have trouble..." Thankfully, the end of this Bible verse ends with a firm promise - "but take heart! I have overcome the world."In this episode, Chara discusses how our hearts can be light this Christmas while not denying that trouble will surely come.Verses referenced: John 16:33; John 14:3; Luke 2:10-11; Matthew 1:23; Psalm 34:18; Zephaniah 3:17; Psalm 23; Isaiah 9:6Articles referenced:Christmas Mourning by Chara Donahue: https://bit.ly/3m67NNAWhen Peace on Earth Seems Impossible by Chara Donahue: https://bit.ly/320hc2jChristmas Bells by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow: https://poets.org/poem/christmas-bellsThe Original Lyrics to ‘Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas' Weren't Very Merry at All by Maddy Shaw Roberts: https://bit.ly/326fM61Songs referenced: Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Bsy9Sl4Z6U***You can find Chara at: https://anchoredvoices.com/ https://www.facebook.com/CharaDonahue/ https://twitter.com/CharaDonahue/Episode Image Credit: Getty/sabelskaya

In the Shadow of Calvary by Hugh Martin he suggests the angel that came to minister to Jesus as he agonized in prayer in the garden worshipped Him. Though brought low in the garden and on the cross, His throne would still be forever and ever. In suffering never forget the glory to come and how incomparable it will be to that suffered now.

On this episode of MICRO BREAK (Episode 24), I sing Christmas classics for you, my loyal listeners. This is a surprise Christmas Eve special for 2020! I hope it puts you in the mood to celebrate Christmas this year, and years to come! This episode is fun for all ages! So let your Children join in and sing along with me, your host, Michael J Maione. Have a very Merry Christmas! "A Holly Jolly Christmas" (also called "Have a Holly Jolly Christmas") is a Christmas song written by Johnny Marks and most famously performed by Burl Ives. The song has since become one of the Top 25 most-performed "holiday" songs written by ASCAP members, for the first five years of the 21st century. "Blue Christmas" is a Christmas song written by Billy Hayes and Jay W. Johnson and most famously performed by Elvis Presley; it was first recorded by Doye O'Dell in 1948. It is a tale of unrequited love during the holidays and is a longstanding staple of Christmas music, especially in the country genre. "Jingle Bells" is one of the best-known and commonly sung American songs in the world. It was written by James Lord Pierpont (1822–1893) and published under the title "The One Horse Open Sleigh" in the autumn of 1857. It has been claimed that it was originally written to be sung by a Sunday school choir, or as a drinking song. "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch" is a Christmas song that was originally written and composed for the 1966 cartoon special Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas! "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" is a song written in 1943 by Hugh Martin and Ralph Blane and introduced by Judy Garland in the 1944 MGM musical Meet Me in St. Louis. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/microbreak/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/microbreak/support

It was a Christmas hit that literally had to be rescued from the trash! This is the story behind…Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas. #BehindTheChristmasHits is Presented by Pizza Pizza! It was written for Judy Garland’s 1944 movie Meet Me in St. Louis. The film was notable for a couple of reasons: the song and for being where Judy and the film’s director, Vincent Minnelli, met and fell in love. They married in 1945 and then Liza Minnelli was born the next year. The movie tells a year in the life of the Smith family beginning in 1903 and leading up to the World’s Fair the following year. Meet Me in St. Louis became the second-highest grossing film of 1944 and had a hugely successful soundtrack with three hit songs – hey, that’s just like Flashdance! Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas is heard after Garland’s character, Esther, becomes engaged to the handsome boy next door, John Truitt, at a fancy Christmas Eve ball – however, their engagement means, they have to move from St. Louis to New York – something that doesn’t sit well with Esther’s 5-year-old sister, Tootie. Songwriter Hugh Martin wrote a melody for the song but threw it away after being unable to figure out what to do with it. When I say threw it away, I mean, in the trash to be taken out by custodial staff. After telling his writing partner, Ralph Blane, what he had done the next day, Blane insisted they start going through trash cans because that melody was too good to throw out. Blaine once told NPR “thank the lord we found it.” That said, Judy Garland had some major problems with the original lyrics and refused to sing them. She thought they were far too sad and gloomy and needed some hope & optimism. Hugh Martin wrote in his biography, The Boy Next Door, he refused to rewrite it and stood by the song as it was. That’s when Garland’s co-star, Tom Drake, came to Martin and said “I’ll think you’ll be sorry if you don’t do this.” So Martin went home and wrote the version heard in the movie. How sad were those original lyrics? Well, the line "Let your heart be light / Next year all our troubles will be out of sight" was originally written as "It may be your last / Next year we may all be living in the past.” There was a lot of pain in those original lyrics – something that wasn’t often expressed in Christmas music back then. But Judy Garland wasn’t alone in her feelings that it was too sad. In 1957, Frank Sinatra tweaked the line “Next year all our troubles will be miles away” to the now more commonly heard “From now on our troubles will be miles away.” Suddenly, a wish for a better tomorrow became more of a celebration of the present day. Depending on how the music is arranged, you can still get those melancholy feels…but any hint of the pain in Martin and Blaine’s original lyrics…was now gone. Ralph Blane passed away in 1995. Martin lived until he was 96 in 2011…and he liked to keep up with who was recording new versions of their song every year. He told Entertainment Weekly he enjoyed Sarah McLachlan and James Taylor’s…and called Twisted Sister’s version “a hoot.”Thanks for joining us.

As he battled mental health issues, Martin’s last 20 years of life were marked by writing--sermons, essays, and letters--as well as some occasional preaching.   Sinclair Ferguson joins Jonathan and James to talk about Martin’s book, Christ Victorious, and give us a wider scope of Hugh Martin’s life and ministry.

Ministering With a Clear Conscience  Why does Paul emphasize clearness of conscience in regard to one’s ministry? James defines “conscience”, expands on its dual function, and talks about how it often speaks against our will.  The hosts discuss the fallibility of the conscience, and how it can—at times—prevent us from enjoying a fruitful spiritual walk. So, what determines the standard of conscience, and how is it applied? Can a guilty conscience in ministry be a good thing, and—if so—to what extent?  We are giving away a copy of Christ Victorious, Selected Writings of Hugh Martin.

Lacuna supports an open source software community focused on enabling modern urban mobility, helping cities make use of open source programs so cities and citizens both benefit.

This week Hugh Martin of Lacuna joins the podcast to talk about his passion for open source ways to operate city streets in the future. As more and more transportation operators look for space on city streets and perhaps in the air, government needs a way to distribute access fairly based on public priorities and policy. Hugh talks about why he’s so passionate about this future for cities and gives us some food for thought on the current state of the relationship between cities and transportation companies.

If you are in the musical theatre business, chances are you have thanked heaven for the brilliance of Michael Lavine. While any one of us could easily go and pick up the scores to My Fair Lady, Carousel, Dear Evan Hansen, or Hamilton, what do we do when we need a song cut from one of those shows? Or, the whole score of a musical that closed on opening night? What if we want to see the cut songs from Oklahoma? We go to Michael Lavine, who owns one of the world's largest private collections of musical theatre sheet music. Michael pulls back the curtain on his career to discuss how he acquired nearly half a million different songs, what happened when Stephen Sondheim met Michael, and why we should all be celebrating the obscure! Also, Michael shines the spotlight on John Kander, Hugh Martin, and Jerry Herman! Plus: Michael sings a never before recorded Sondheim song! Become a sponsor of Behind The Curtain and get early access to interviews, private playlists, and advance knowledge of future guests so you can ask the legends your own questions.

Matthew Sweet and Neil Brand look back on the Golden Age of the cinema in the first of two programmes charting scores in which composers rethought the nature of film music. In today's programme music by Camille Saint-Saëns; Eric Satie; Max Steiner; Kerry Mills and Hugh Martin; Dmitri Tiomkin; Leith Stevens; Bernard Herrmann and Ennio Morricone.

Soul Music tells the story of the song, Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, and talks to people for whom it has special meaning. 'Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas', was first performed by Judy Garland in the 1944 MGM musical Meet Me In St Louis', for the now famous scene in which Garland and her seven year old sister, played by Margaret O'Brien are downcast about the prospect of moving away from their beloved home. Garland asked the composer, Hugh Martin to modify his original lyric, explaining it to be too depressing for her to sing, or the audience to hear. Martin's collaborator and friend, John Fricke, explains the importance this song had for the composer and the joy he experienced in hearing it covered by every major artist since, from Frank Sinatra to Chrissie Hynde, Punk band Fear to Cold Play, Rod Stewart to James Taylor. It's clear that the song's enduring power lies in a beautiful melody with a melancholic feel that sums up our emotional ambivalence to the Christmas season. We hear from those who have a special connection to the song. Producer Lucy Lunt.
