DescriptionCarnegie Hall: A Stage for Legends in 60 Seconds. Take a minute to get the scoop!Fun FactIn 1962, The Beatles were rejected by Decca Records, who claimed "guitar groups are on the way out." Two years later, they rocked Carnegie Hall in a sold-out show, proving just how wrong Decca was!

Pentru că suntem ascultători (de podcasturi), am urmat îndemnul scriitoarei Gabriela Adameșteanu din episodul dedicat Târgului de Carte Gaudeamus și ne-am pus pe răsfoit Jurnalul lui Paul Cornea (Polirom, 2024). Cel mai nimerit pentru a-i pune microfonul dinainte am găsit că este editorul jurnalului, cercetătorul Petruș Costea. Așa am aflat despre ce înseamnă să te îngrijești de un text, cum descifrezi un manuscris, despre muzici, filme și alte delicii literare. Și nu în ultimul rând, despre Paul Cornea, un om generos, care ținea dialogul mereu viu, un om al ideilor și al simțirilor romantice. Recomandări din podcast:Mihail Sebastian, Jurnal, 1935-1944, Editura Humanitas, 2016Filmul „Intermezzo”, în regia lui Gregory Ratoff (1939) C.

What do a classical pianist, a filmmaker, and a CEO have in common? In this week's episode of Hiring Matters, Ken Schmitt dives into the fascinating mind of Jieho Lee—CEO, Chief People Officer, and movie director. From ivory keys to boardrooms, Jieho takes us on a wild ride, showing us how the skills he developed on the movie set translate directly to leading a diverse and dynamic workforce. Cue the drama! Ken and Jieho hash out the great debate: Should company culture be more "work hard, play hard" à la Netflix, or should we strive for something a little more, dare we say, fun? Jieho argues that a workplace should spark joy, not dread, while Ken questions if the tough-love, performance-driven environment is a necessary evil. Expect a few verbal eye rolls and some serious food for thought. Together, they dig into managing a multi-generational workforce. Spoiler alert: Boomers, Gen Z, and everyone in between don't all want the same things from their jobs (shocking, we know). So, how do you balance these diverse expectations without losing your sanity? Jieho and Ken tackle it head-on, offering insights, laughs, and even a few leadership facepalms along the way. Whether you're managing egos on a movie set or in a boardroom, creating a safe, collaborative space is essential. And Jieho's secret sauce? Humility, reflection, and realizing that even CEOs (and directors) are only as good as the teams they lead. Tune in for a conversation packed with humor, hard truths, and a fresh perspective on how to lead, hire, and retain top talent—whether you're running a company or filming the next blockbuster. Key Takeaways: Artsy types make great CEOs (who knew?). Classical music taught Jieho the importance of harmony—literally and figuratively. Is fun the new productivity? Multi-generational management: It's like herding cats but with more Slack messages. Cultural fit or diversity of thought? Hint: You need both. A good leader knows how to adapt and evolve. The best leader? Knows how to laugh through it. Have questions or personal experiences?

The Dumbo neighborhood in Brooklyn is a vibrant, albeit crowded and touristy, spot to take in views of Manhattan, explore the waterfront, and enjoy some delicious food. Where is Dumbo? It encompasses two sections: one situated between the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges, which connect Brooklyn to Manhattan across the East River, and another extending eastward from the Manhattan Bridge to the Vinegar Hill area. Why Is It Called Dumbo? Dumbo stands for "Down under Manhattan Bridge overpass" and was said to be coined in the '90s by locals to make the neighborhood sound less desirable to developers. 1- Walk the Brooklyn Bridge It's crowded but worth it; try to go at off-times. You can walk in from the Manhattan side across the Brooklyn Bridge into Dumbo! 2- Timeout Market Spread across 24,000 square feet, the curated dining destination packs multiple eateries, three bars, a fifth-floor rooftop, and art installations into one space that encompasses the best food, drinks, and culture that New York has to offer. 3- Evil Twin Brewing Their flagship brewery is in Ridgewood in Brooklyn, but their Dumbo location boasts almost 20 local beers on tap. This Episode's You'll Have to Check It Out Segment - Bargemusic Since 1977, Bargemusic has presented chamber music in an unlikely and startlingly beautiful venue—a floating barge at the foot of the Brooklyn Bridge. Both established and emerging musicians perform at Bargemusic on a small stage with the dramatic backdrop of the East River and lower Manhattan skyline. Mark Peskanov, Bargemusic Artistic Director, has performed for decades with the likes of Yo-Yo Ma, Isaac Stern, and many other world-famous artists. 4- Grimaldi's Pizzeria Multi-level Brooklyn staple serving pies for over 100 years. 5- Brooklyn Bridge Park - Views, Free Events, Near the Water If you go to brooklynbridgepark.org, they have a full calendar of free activities, including workout classes, live music, movie showings, and other fun activities.

durée : 00:23:54 - Disques de légende du vendredi 05 avril 2024 - Leonard Bernstein et Isaac Stern ont réalisé ensemble plus d'une douzaine d'enregistrements. Celui de 1964, du Concerto pour violon de Samuel Barber, selon le compositeur, était la plus belle interprétation qu'il ait jamais entendue.

Bernstein schreibt seine Serenade 1954 nach der Lektüre von Platons "Symposion". Auf einer Dinner-Party im alten Athen werden Reden zum Thema Erotik gehalten. Das Werk mit seinem sinnlichen Streicherklang gilt als musikalisches Selbstporträt des Komponisten. Von Michael Lohse.

He has recorded over 20 albums, and one reviewer labelled him “an uninhibited musician at the peak of his art”. He's in Sydney giving the Australian premiere of the violin concerto composed for him by Camille Pépin, with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra conducted by its chief conductor Simone Young.

Renaud Capuçon performs Pépin's Violin Concerto La Sommeil a pris ton empreinte (Sleep retains your imprint) with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra under chief conductor Simone Young from 28 February to 2 March, a concert which also includes a performance of Mahler's Symphony no 5.

As a young actor (Local Hero, Crossing Delancey, Animal House) he played Goldberg in The Birthday Party, overseen by Harold Pinter himself.

durée : 00:25:12 - Les Grands entretiens - par : Judith Chaine - D'abord reconnu comme violoniste virtuose, Nikolaj Szeps-Znaider a parallèlement développé ces dernières années une carrière de chef d'orchestre de très haut niveau. Le musicien israëlo-danois est depuis 2020 directeur musical de l'Orchestre National de de Lyon, succédant ainsi à Leonard Slatkin.

SynopsisFor decades many of the 20th century's greatest composers routinely visited Venice's famous canals and churches during a biennial music festival that showcased brand-new works by the likes of Stravinsky, Prokofiev, Britten, and others.The French composer Darius Milhaud describes sharing space with several of his composer-colleagues in a cramped Festival “green room.” “It was a normal sight to see Stravinsky's rain-coat and Constant Lambert's tweed overcoat hanging near my two walking sticks,” writes Milhaud. “Meanwhile, the Italian composer Hildebrando Pizetti would be putting up a mirror, opening a silver toilet-case, and arranging flowers, his wife's photograph and a sheaf of telegrams.”On today's date in 1937, Milhaud conducted the first performance of his Suite Provencale at the Venice Festival. This jaunty score proved to be one of his most popular orchestral works. In 1954, it was Leonard Bernstein's turn. On today's date that year, he conducted in Venice the premiere performance of his Serenade for violin and orchestra, with Isaac Stern the featured soloist.Despite its admirable track record for picking winners, the Venice Festival shut down operations in 1973, although its impact lives on in the number of modern masterworks it helped launch in its day.Music Played in Today's ProgramDarius Milhaud (1892 - 1974) Suite provençale, Op. 152b Detroit Symphony; Neeme Järvi, cond.

Gustavo Daniel Perednik es un escritor argentino que afirma en su libro “Con el violín a cuestas”, que el violín es un invento judío sefardí, que ha acompañado al pueblo judío a lo largo de sus luchas y trabajosos caminos de peregrinación, formando un extraordinario binomio histórico. Perednik también afirma que Gasparo da Salò, un judío sefardí de Italia, es uno de los fabricantes de violines más antiguos de los que se tiene registro en el siglo XVI. En esta misma región y época, se ubica a la familia judía Bachi, reconocida por proveer la madera especial para la fabricación de estos instrumentos. El violín es un instrumento que evolucionó de la viola da gamba, que fue inventada en España antes de la expulsión de los judíos, y conocida en Italia gracias a los principales violagambistas que allí se refugiaron. Los primeros y más famosos luthiers fueron judíos italianos, y Jacob Steiner fue el más célebre luthier judío alemán. La lista de violinistas judíos es larga y en ella se encuentran muchos de los más destacados interpretes de las orquestas del mundo. Te dejamos con un solo de violín interpretado por Isaac Stern, un músico judío, nacionalizado estadounidense, considerado como uno de los mejores violinistas del siglo XX.

Synopsis In the hands of a great performer, the violin can sing with the personality and intensity of a great opera singer. Pyrotechnics may dazzle, but nothing moves an audience as much as when a great violinist "sings" through his instrument. On today's date in 1896, a French audience in Nancy must has been so moved when the great violinist Eugène Ysaÿe gave the first performance of this music: the Poème for Violin and Orchestra by Ernest Chausson. In addition to famous artists like Manet and Degas, Chausson counted among his friends many of the great musicians of his day, including the great violinist Ysäye. Although they admired his work, Chausson was not always appreciated by the public. But when Ysaÿe premiered Chausson's Poème in Paris in 1897, the applause went on and on. Used to just the opposite reaction, Chausson was stunned by his success, and, while thanking Ysaye profusely, kept repeating to himself: "I just can't believe it!" Two modern-day violinists, Joshua Bell and Pamela Frank, were the inspiration for this songful contemporary work by Aaron Jay Kernis. Titled Air for Violin, it was originally composed for violin and piano, and premiered in 1995 by Joshua Bell. The following year, Pamela Frank and the Minnesota Orchestra premiered a new version of Air for violin and orchestra.

Every December, Americans celebrate their memorable cultural icons when the Kennedy Center bestows its annual honors to those in the performing arts for their lifetime contributions. Since 1978, the Honors have been presented annually each December to five honorees followed by a gala celebration. The original strategy was that these unique individuals were people who have contributed to society, not someone who happens to have a pop record hit at the moment. The intention was not to do just another award show. Do you recall the first host? It was Leonard Bernstein in 1978. And the White House got involved by inviting the Honorees first to the White House for an initial presentation by the President. For 2022, who are the Honorees? Well, George Clooney, Amy Grant, Gladys Knight, Tania Leon and U2. In this podcast, we'll focus on two ceremonies held at the White House. The first, 40 years ago in 1982 honored George Abbott, Eugene Ormandy, Lillian Gish, Benny Goodman, and Gene Kelly. Then, in the second half of the podcast, the President honored in 1984, Lena Horne, Arthur Miller, Gian Carlo Menotti, Isaac Stern and Danny Kaye. And in the second half of the podcast, I'll share a bit about those who were offered the honor but declined.

February 3, 1946  - Jack Attends Isaac Stern Concert with the Colmans and the winning poem for the "I Can't Stand Jack Benny Contest". *Note: This episode was the very first episode of the podcast. This is an updated intro.  

Years ago, my dear friend and mentor Don Foley shared a story about Isaac Stern that I've never let go. The great violinist (1920-2001) was often asked why the music sounded so different when Isaac played it on his violin versus when the same song sheet was followed by others.“Anyone can play the notes,” he would tell students; “music is what goes on in between the notes.”Thanks for listening. This is the 15th article in a year-long series called Finding the Words. If you liked this week's essay, we hope you'll forward it along. And a reminder that your family, friends, and colleagues can subscribe to Finding the Words too — along with every episode of our podcast — simply by clicking this link.

Synopsis Temple Emanu-El in San Francisco is one of America's foremost reform congregations. For some 50 years its cantor was Reuben Rinder, who, in addition to his liturgical duties, was a composer, impresario, and musical mentor. Cantor Rinder influenced the careers of two of the 20th century's greatest violinists, Yehudi Menuhin and Isaac Stern, and also commissioned two of the 20th century's most famous concert versions of the Jewish liturgy, the Evening and Morning Sabbath Service settings of Ernst Bloch and Darius Milhaud. Milhaud's Sabbath Morning Service was first heard at Temple Emanu-El on today's date in 1949, with its composer conducting. Milhaud was born in Provence and wrote that the Provencal Jewish tradition evoked in his score differs somewhat from the more standard Ashkenazi liturgy prevalent in most American synagogues then and now. The composer's intention was to create a personal musical statement that could serve as both an actual liturgy for the faithful and as an ecumenical musical experience for any and all who hear the work, whether in temple or concert hall. In that respect, Milhaud's Sacred Service was a great success. Alongside Bloch's setting, written in the early 1930s, shortly before the onset of the Holocaust, Milhaud's setting, written in the years following the conclusion of World War II, remains a powerful and moving affirmation of religious faith.

Nos ocupamos de un musical importante: "EL VIOLINISTA EN EL TEJADO". Aunque cuando me propuse traer a estos programas al equipo formado por Jerry Bock (músico) y Sheldon Harnick (letrista), pensé hacerlo con su musical "She loves me" por ser menos conocido, pero la reciente guerra de Rusia contra Ucrania hacía inevitable no hacerlo con su musical más popular en el que vemos repetirse la historia, pensando que aquellos que lo conozcan pueden darle un repaso al mismo y para los afortunados que aún no lo conozcan, darles la oportunidad de descubrirlo. El musical se ha podido ver prácticamente en todo el mundo. En España tuvo dos producciones y la que quiso protagonizar el cantante Raphael nunca llegó a materializarse, pero la película la hizo accesible a públicos de todo el mundo. Precisamente hemos escogido el audio de la película para seguir la historia en este podcast ya que queríamos aprovecharnos de los solos al violín de Isaac Stern y de los arreglos musicales de John Williams que le valieron un Oscar a la mejor adaptación musical para el cine. 00h 00'00" Si yo fuera rico - Nuestro pequeño mundo 00h 03'15" Presentación 00h 04'44" Cabecera 00h 05'53" Inicio 00h 07'05" Prologo, Tradition & Main theme 00h 19'20" Matchmaker, matchmaker 00h 24'06" If I were a rich man 00h 30'51" Sabbath prayer 00h 34'11" To life 00h 42'09" Teyve's monologue 00h 45'21" Miracle of miracles 00h 48'10" Teyve's dream 00h 55'21" Wedding procession 00h 57'08" Sunrise, sunset 01h 01'13" The wedding dance 01h 07'43" End first act & Entr'acte 01h 11'24" Now I have everything 01h 14'11" Teyve's rebuttal 01h 17'55" Do you love me? 01h 21'52" The rumor 01h 24'11" Far from the home I love 01h 27'55" Dear sewing machine 01h 30'48" Chava ballet sequence 01h 33'31" The rejection scene 01h 35'32" Anatevka 01h 39'30" Leaving Anatevka 01h 41'36" Finale 01h 42'06" Curiosidades 01h 43'20" Topsy turvy 01h 47'16" Any day now 01h 50’51” We’ve never missed a sabbath yet 01h 55’18” What a life 01h 57’43” To marry for love 02h 01’30” Richest man in town 02h 04’32” If I were a woman 02h 07’00” As much as that 02h 09’52” A butchers soul 02h 11’44” Letters from America 02h 16’05” Get thee out 02h 17’32” When Messiah comes 02h 20'17" Agradecimientos 02h 21'07" Excerpts, variations & cadenza

Metamorphosen, Penderecki's Second Violin Concerto, was written for the German violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter between 1992 and 1995. Drawing on the contrasts between this work and the First Violin Concerto, which was premiered by Isaac Stern in 1977, and contextualising Metamorphosen with the Second Violin Sonata and La Follia, this podcast will explore a meeting of musical minds in one of the most striking works for violin and orchestra of the late twentieth century.  Transcription WCAG

The work on this week's episode of the Phenomenal 50 is the Opus 56 Sonata for Two Violins by Sergei Prokofiev performed by Isaac Stern and Pinchas Zuckerman.

Today we have the privilege to talk with Miri Ben Ari, aka the Hip Hop Violinist, and probably one of the most famous and influential Israelis to hit the contemporary international music scene. Miri was born in Tel Aviv and where she grew up playing classical music since the age of 5. Her encounter with world renowned violinist Isaac Stern brought her towards the violin, and ever since then her romance with this instrument flourished. Following her military service in the IDF string quartet, she moved to New York to study jazz. She played gigs and worked hard and after some time it all paid off, when Jay-Z noticed her talent and invited her to play with him. She then went on to extraordinary accomplishments like playing with Wyclef at Carnegie hall, co-writing Jesus Walks with Kanye West (which got her the Grammy) and being featured in four tracks on his debut album, releasing her own debut album The Hip Hop Violinist, Performing on David Letterman's late night, performing for Barack and Michelle Obama at the White House and the list goes on and on and on. In addition to all that, Ben Ari has devoted her life to social causes. She is a UN ambassador of Music, and Her NGO Gedenk has set as its mission to educate American youth about the Holocaust. We are so honored to have Miri Ben Ari with us today.
