Évszázadokon átívelő zenetörténeti elemzések, kortárs popzenei leágazások és személyes kapcsolódások érnek össze Fazekas Gergely zenetörténész írásaiban, melyek közül az elmúlt években számos a 444-en jelent meg, és melyeket idén egy kötetben fogott össze. Így adta magát, hogy a Nem rossz könyvek podcastban a komfortzónánkból kissé kimozogva, zenetörténeti és zenehallgatási kérdésekről beszélgessünk Fazekas Gergellyel, aki nemcsak a Zeneakadémia tanára, de mellette a popdalokat szétszedő Dalszerelőműhelyt is vezeti. A tartalomból: 00:00 Készülve már az évzáró részre, most csak egyetlen könyvet említünk röviden: Veronica Pacini - A nő teste. 02:30 Vendégünk Fazekas Gergely, akit elsőnek a zenéhez vezető útjáról és az első emlékezetes lemezről kérdezünk. (Otto Klemperer - Bach H-moll mise) 07:40 Mit csinál egy zenetörténész? És mit ad ehhez a filozófia? 14:00 Mennyit számít, hogy gyerekként mit hallgatunk? A klasszikus zene közönsége nem öregszik, hanem alapvetően nem fiatal. 16:45 Hogyan lehet egyáltalán zenéről írni? Az élményt magát írásban visszaadni nem feltétlen lehet, de az élménynek megágyazni meg lehet a szöveggel. És a zenekultúra, amiben benne élünk, akkor is, ha nem tudunk róla: John Williams, mint zseniális 19. századi szerző. 26.30 Mitől hat ránk a zene? Pogány Induló, aura és bongortól az Apa. 30:00 A zenei kánon, amit ismerünk, és ki az, aki megérdemelné, de még sincs igazán benne? Például Henry Purcell. És mi lenne velünk, ha többé nem hallgatnánk 1985 előtti zenét? Még egy zeneszerző, akit érdemes ismerni: Jan Dismas Zelenka. 34:50 A 20. század egyik legfontosabb zeneműve: John Cage 4'33-ja, és Paul McCartney új néma dala az AI ellen. És a feltételezés, hogy a klasszikus zene még mindig inkább védett övezet az AI-jal szemben, legalábbis a popzenéhez képest biztosan. 42:30 A megszelídülő popzene és a gyerekek által mutatott zenék jelentette kihívások. Az emlegetett Carson Coma-cikk, és a szintén emlegetett Jean-Baptiste Lully. A szintén szóba hozott Rosalía albumról pedig írtunk is. 49:30 Hogyan hallgassunk zenét? Zenehallgatási típusok 53:30 Három lemez és három könyv Fazekas Gergely ajánlásában: Víkingur Ólafsson - Opus 109, Concerto Copenhagen - Bach H-moll mise, és Beyoncé - Cowboy Carter, valamint David Szalay - Flesh, Biró Zsombor Aurél - Visszatérő álmom, hogy apám vállán ébredek (podcastunk a szerzővel itt), és Jón Kalman Stefánsson életműve.

Steven Bernstein sits with John Williams, Heather Kofka, and Christopher Shea for a luminous, craft-first conversation on the art of filmmaking. Bernstein traces his path from cinematography to the director's chair, reflecting on Monster, Last Call, Decoding Annie Parker, White Chicks, Half Baked, SWAT, and Blade, and why the most enduring work begins with human chemistry.They unpack the family that forms on set, the ache of wrap day, and how to protect performance when time and money press in. Bernstein explains why intuition often beats orthodoxy, how executives chase safety while art asks for risk, and why story should serve character, not the other way around. He shares practical tools for actors and directors, from freeing marks and lighting to invite truth, to building backstory that unlocks authentic choices.The table dives into post control, color grading, and the quiet power of tone, then pivots to Bernstein's novel GRQ and its meta leap to the screen. It is a talk about collaboration, presence, courage, and the strange alchemy that turns effort into feeling. If you love the work behind the work, this one is a masterclass that hums with lived experience.Keywords: Steven Bernstein, filmmaking, cinematography, directing, acting craft, color grading, creative process, indie film, Monster, Last Call, Decoding Annie Parker, GRQ, John Williams, Heather Kofka, Christopher Shea, In the Room
