Alaska has spawned a long list of serial killers from the gold rush era in the early 1900s to the present day. Is Brian Steven Smith the latest member of this notorious fraternity? I did an episode on this case several months ago, but a great deal has happened with it since then. Smith's first two murder cases have moved through the court system, and the police have released information suggesting he has more victims.

Vi intervjuar idag Carnegies aktieanalytiker Hugo Lisjö och fördjupar oss i den högaktuella försvarssektorn. Vi tar del av slutsatser från Carnegies försvarsevent där försvarsminister Pål Jonson var en av huvudtalarna. Vi backar bandet för att reda ut hur vi hamnat där vi är idag med å ena sidan en eventuell fred i Ukraina men också fortsatt växande försvarsanslag under många år. Vilka bolag och sektorer är vinnare från ökade försvarsanslag? Och finns det ytterligare potential i dessa aktier efter den uppgång som varit?

In the fifth part of this short series of guest episodes before we get back to continuing the journey through the Shakespeare and Jonson cannon I had the chance to speak with Dr Ian McCormick about the collection of essays he edited, which pulls together recent Shakespeare criticism in the framework of woke and anti-woke culture and the culture wars of recent years. It is a wide ranging and thought provoking collection. Ian McCormick, was a Professor in the Department of English for the School of Cultural Studies at the University of Northampton, where he taught Shakespeare, Renaissance Literature, 18th-century Literature, and Literary Theory. He has edited and contributed to books in various fields including sexuality and gender studies; modern and postmodern literature; teaching and learning strategies; drama education and critical theory. He has contributed to many academic publications, written a novel inspired by 18th century epistolatory novels and in the past he has organized two major international conferences for the British Society for Eighteenth-century Studies, at St John's College (University of Oxford). For the full details of Ian's biography please see the guest page on the podcast website.Links to 'Woke Shakespeare':Amazon UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Woke-Shakespeare-Rethinking-New-Era/dp/B0DQYB2TS5/ref=sr_1_1?Amazon US: https://www.amazon.com/Woke-Shakespeare-Rethinking-New-Era/dp/B0DQYB2TS5/ref=sr_1_1?If you are interested in being considered to make a contribution to the next volume ‘Shakespeare: New Voices', you have until the 30th June 2025 to make an application via the Penn State University call for papers page, where some details of the requirements are explained https://call-for-papers.sas.upenn.edu/cfp/2023/05/18/shakespeare-new-voicesSupport the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

In the week following US vice president JD Vance’s explosive speech at the Munich Security Conference, European leaders scrambled to two emergency summits to consider the prospect of American detachment. In this special episode recorded at the conference, we reflect on this new reality almost exactly three years on from the invasion of Ukraine. We speak with current and former office-holders, including Pål Jonson, Sweden’s minister of defence, and Oleksii Reznikov, former minister of defence of Ukraine.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the fourth part of this short series of guest episodes before we get back to continuing the journey through the Shakespeare and Jonson cannon today's episode is a repeat of episode 32 of the podcast, first released in late 2020. Having just produced an episode on satyr play on the main podcast and another on the papyologists who rediscovered the play Trackers for the fledgling Patreon account I was very pleased to be able to talk to theatre director Jimmy Walters who have produced a revival of the play The Trackers of Oxyrhincus by Tony Harrison. To hear from first-hand experience what it was like to produce a modern adaptation of a Greek play, especially something as rare as the satyr play was a real treat. It is, I think, worthy of another listen if you heard it at the time, or a first listen if you have only joined us for the later theatrical periods.Jimmy Walters has been a professional actor and then director for almost twenty years. In his directing career he has presented work at most of London's most prestigious off-west end venues, including the Finborough Theatre, Southwark Playhouse and the Jermyn Street Theatre and at other venues around the UK. Since 2022 he has been Education Practitioner for Shakespeare's Globe leading Shakespeare workshops onsite for children of all ages.Support the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

Zach Jonson, senior portfolio manager at Stack Financial Management, says current valuations "really only fall in line with 1929 and 1999, so we see substantial downside risk" to the Standard & Poor's 500, but investors can avoid "historic ber market losses" in the mega-cap stocks that have lead the market for the last two years by rotating toward the value and lagging plays. He recommends equal-weight index plays rather than traditional cap-weighted plays, and being patient with the stocks that were unloved, which will have to overcome the shifting momentum of mega caps as the market cycle changes. His sentiments about a broadening market were seconded by Patrick O'Hare, chief market analyst at Briefing.com, who says that what's coming will be more of a stock-picker's market where investors are paid for being thoughtful and discerning amid a market that's likely to be stuck in a tight range as leadership changes and amid geopolitical uncertainty. Also on the show, Chuck Bell of Consumer Reports discusses how the potential end of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will impact consumers, and Chip Lupo discusses a WalletHub study showing that Americans collectively will spend a record $14.2 billion on Valentine's Day gifts, with the average lovebird shelling out $186 this year.

In the third part of this series of guest episodes before we get back to continuing the journey through the Shakespeare and Jonson cannon, we are going deep into the world of the renaissance period boy actors, or perhaps, as they should more properly be called, apprentice players. The habit of the period of young actors playing female roles is well known, but when I had the chance to talk to Roberta Barker about her study of apprentice players it soon became very clear that there is a lot more to their position in the playing company than that and we get to meet some of them as personalities in their own right.Roberta Barker is a member of the Joint Faculty of King's College, London, where she is Professor of Theatre teaching in the Foundation Year and Early Modern Studies programs, and Dalhousie University, Halifax Nova Scotia, where she teaches Theatre in the Fountain School of Performing Arts. Her research interests centre upon the relationship between performance and the social construction of identity and has explored such topics as the representation of gender and class in early modern tragedy, the early modern careers and modern afterlives of Shakespeare's boy players, and (most recently) the role played by the performance of illness on the nineteenth-century stage in the evolution of realist style. She is also a theatre and opera director.Support the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

Ryssland fortsätter sitt krig i Ukraina och på Östersjöns botten misstänks sabotage mot viktig infrastruktur. Samtidigt visar USA ett minskat intresse för Europas säkerhet. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. På Jonson (M) är försvarsminister i en säkerhetspolitiskt allvarlig tid.Vid sidan av krig i Europa flyttar USA, med Donald Trump som president, sitt fokus från Europa till andra regioner. Försvarsminister Pål Jonson anser därför att Sverige måste göra sig av med sitt beroende och bygga upp den egna försvarsförmågan. ”Vi måste använda de här åren som kommer för att snabbupprusta, både i Sverige och övriga länder”, säger Pål Jonson. Det handlar enligt försvarsministern om att tillgängliggöra markstridsförband, bli bättre på att kunna flytta militära resurser över gränserna och att se till att det finns nödvändiga reservdelar till hands.Gemensamma upphandlingarFlera länder vill nu att EU ska ta gemensamma lån för att finansiera inköp av bland annat ammunition, men Sverige är kritiskt till det upplägget. Försvarsminister Pål Jonson är mer intresserad av ett förslag som Polen presenterat som bygger på att länder går ihop och gör gemensamma upphandlingar av försvarsmateriel. ”Då kan man få en större upphandlingsserie så att man kan pressa priserna och därigenom få försvarsindustrin att investera och öka sin produktionsförmåga. Det behöver vi i Europa”, säger försvarsministern.Upprustningen kräver att EU-länderna höjer de nationella försvarsbudgetarna till över 2 procent av BNP. Sveriges försvarsbudget ligger idag på 2,4 procent men försvarsministern vill inte ge en exakt siffra på hur mycket han anser att budgeten borde växa. ”2 % av BNP är ett golv, inte ett tak”, säger Pål Jonson.Misstänkta kabelsabotage i ÖstersjönUnder de senaste månaderna har ett tiotal misstänkta attacker mot kablar på Östersjöns botten uppmärksammats. Hittills har det inte kunnat fastställas att det handlar om sabotage, men försvarsministern lyfter ändå vikten av ett bättre samarbete för att skydda olika typer av kritisk infrastruktur. Försvarsministern beskriver Östersjön som ett speciellt operationsområde, med ett genomsnittsdjup på 55 meter och väldigt mycket trafik. Han ser också hur Rysslands intresse för området ökat. ”Vi ser också att Rysslands behov utav Östersjön har ökat eftersom det är svårare för dom att använda till exempel Svarta Havet. Det måste vi vara medvetna om och ytterligare intensifiera det internationella samarbetet framöver.”Gäst: Pål Jonson (M), försvarsministerProgramledare: Katarina von ArndtKommentar: Mats Eriksson, Ekots politikreporter med inriktning på försvarsfrågor Tekniker: Christer TjernellProducent: Stina FischerIntervjun spelades in fredag den 6 februari 2025.

Episode 154As you know form last week's episode I'm running a short series of guest episodes before we get back to continuing the journey through the Shakespeare and Jonson cannon. Today's episode is a repeat of episode 30 of the podcast, first released in late 2020. At the time I was discussing the early theatre of Rome and with the Ancient Greek theatre already under my belt I had started to reach out to academics and authors who could add depth and colour to the research that I had been able to do. This episode with Dr Elodie Palliard was, I thought, particularly helpful in describing the likely developments in theatre in the murky period between the end of recorded Athenian theatre and early Roman theatre. It is, I think, worthy of another listen if you heard it at the time, or a first listen if you have only joined us for the later theatrical periods.Dr Elodie Paillard is currently an Honorary Associate in the Department of Classics and Ancient History at the University of Sydney, and a Partner Investigator in the Australian Research Council discovery project 'Theatre and Autocracy in Ancient Greece'. She is also a Project Leader at the University of Basel, financed by the Swiss National Science Foundation. After completing a PhD thesis on the staging of socio-political groups in Sophocles, and a postdoc on Greek theatre in Early Imperial Rome and Campania, Elodie is now working on Greek theatre in Republican Italy (500-27BC). She is also a member of the editorial board of the journal Mediterranean Archaeology.Support the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

Episode 153Today's guest episode serves as a great precursor to what is to come. The discussion that you are about to hear with Charles Mosely focusses on Shakespeare as a man of the theatre and discusses how the plays were created for and affected by the Theatre, the Audience and the conventions of the time. And that brief description does not do this wide ranging and detailed discussion any sort of justice. I think all of the thoughts that Charles discusses are well worth holding I mind as we work through the plays of Shakespeare and Jonson over the coming months.Charles Moseley is a difficult man to summarise in a few words. He is a historian, literary critic and travel writer, but that only touches on part of his extensive output and experience. Most relevant for our purposes today are his years as College Lecturer in English at Magdalene College, Cambridge, then Director of Studies in English (and later Fellow) of Wolfson College, and finally Senior Tutor and Director of Studies in English at Hughes Hall, Cambridge. The depth of knowledge and enthusiasm that Charles holds for his subject is, I think, quite self-evident and I am sure you will enjoy every moment of this, just as I did.To see more about Charles, his publications, and other writings, including a fuller biography you can go to www.charlesmoseley.comSupport the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

Episode 151Having finished with Ben Jonson's biography we can now go back in time just a little to work through Shakespeare's and Jonson's plays in more detail.

One of the generally accepted facts about theatre in the time of Shakespeare and Jonson is that boy actors took female roles and women were banned from appearing on the stage. This is in fact only partly true and my guest for today's episode has made a study of how early modern actresses, from traditions on the European continent, influenced the English stage. During out conversation we covered aspects of European theatre from the early 1500's, and Commedia Dell'arte in particular. You will find my take on this in season three of the podcast and if you have already listened to that hopefully some of the names will still sound familiar. We also talked about the influence of actresses on playwrights and plays from the period and hopefully you will remember Lilly, Marlowe and Kyd and The Spanish Tragedy from season four of the podcast. All those episodes are still out there on your podcast feed if you need a refresher. Pamela Allen Brown is Professor Emerita of English, University of Connecticut. Her monograph The Diva's Gift to the Shakespearean Stage: Agency, Theatricality, and the Innamorata was published by Oxford in 2021.

De frivilliga försvarsorganisationerna är viktiga för den samlade förmågan inom totalförsvaret och folkförankringen står det i den totalförsvarsproposition som riksdagen ska fatta beslut om under december. Frivilligas roll och Lottakårens bidrag under 100 år var fokus för ett panelsamtal på Svenska Lottakårens riksstämma med försvarsminister Pål Jonson, riksförbundets ordförande och rikslottachef Eva Nolsäter. Försvarsministern var tydlig med att Lottakåren bidrar till Sveriges säkerhet och försvar, inte minst genom att bidra till att öka andelen kvinnor som engagerar sig i Försvarsmakten. Under samtalet fick panelen även frågor från publiken om hur vi når ut i utsatta områden, personalutmaningar och hur vi bättre samarbetar med vårt grannland Norge, inte minst på grund av att många svenskar arbetar på andra sidan gränsen.  Lästips hittar du på avsnittets webbsida

Spiritualism's Place. Episode #2 of 4. Enjoy this re-release of one of our favorite episodes in celebration of our newly released book: Spiritualism's Place: Reformers, Seekers, and Seances in Lily Dale. For three years before his untimely death on the Titanic, British newspaper man W. T. Stead gathered the bereaved and curious in a room in Cambridge House so they could communicate with the dead. Several psychics, including the blind medium Cecil Husk and materialization medium J. B. Jonson, worked these sessions which had become known as Julia's Bureau. After Stead's death, Detroit medium Mrs. Etta Wriedt sought to channel the dead newspaper man. Wriedt was also known to channel a Glasgow-born, eighteenth-century apothecary farmer named Dr. John Sharp. Other frequent visitors include an American Indian medicine chief named Grayfeather, the Welsh pirate Henry Morgan, and a female Seminole Indian named Blossom who died in the Florida everglades as a young child. But the bureau's most important spirit visitor can also be said to have been the founder of the bureau, Julia herself. Who was Julia? And how do these seances fit into the long history of Spiritualism? Find out today! Find transcripts and show notes here: www.digpodcast.org Learn more about your ad choices.

Episode 138:Over the course of speaking about English Renaissance Plays and Shakespeare I have had cause to mention the play ‘A Knack to Know a Knave' several times. Most latterly because it is thought to include references to ‘The Taming of the Shrew' and ‘Titus Andronicus' and prior to that, in the season on the Early Renaissance Theatre it had a mention as one of the plays performed at the Rose Playhouse as recorded in Henslowe's Diary. Having been reminded of it while writing about the early Shakespeare plays I thought that it deserved a little time in the spotlight on it's own as it gives us a little snapshot of the plays, and particularly comedies other than Shakespeare and Jonson, that was circulating at the time of the earliest of Shakespeare's plays. So, here is a little interlude of an episode all about ‘A Knack to Know a Knave'.A quick word on ‘Shakespeare's Borrowed Feathers' by Darren Feebury-Jones, which is published in October 2024 and on Henry Porter and his possible involvement with ‘Dr Faustus'.The performances of ‘A Knack to Know a Knave' as reported in Henslowe's DiaryThe mystery of the low takings for repeated performances in a second run of the playThe printed quarto edition of the playA summary of the plotThe (possibly) missing parts of the play, including Kempe's extemporisingHow the fools of Gotham folk tale is worked into the playThe allusions to other plays in the textThe final lines of the playIf you would like to read the text of A Knack to Know a Knave, you can find it on google books here Support the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

Zach Jonson, chief investment officer at Stack Financial Management, says that while the stock market has been moving to record highs, "it wasn't healthy." He says that market valuations are overblown, with concentration in the index being more of a concern than at any time in history, which means that current conditions are lining up with some rare time periods, most notably the tech bubble days of the late 1990s, which ended turning ugly when the bubble burst. That's in contrast with the view from Eric Wallerstein, chief markets strategist at Yardeni Research, who says the Dow Jones Industrial Average will reach 60,000 and the Standard & Poor's 500 will hit 8,000 before the end of the current decade, and while that run could end up ugly at that point, any downturns in the interim are buying opportunities. Plus, John Cole Scott, president of Closed-End Fund Advisors — chairman of the Active Investment Company Alliance — provides an update on what's happened with closed-end funds through the first half of 2024, and Jaime Dunaway-Seale discusses Clever Real Estate's Gen Z Home Buyer Report, which showed that 60 percent of the generation just entering the workforces thinks they will never own a home.

The Ethiopian Bible has about 25% more books than the King James Bible and substantially more than the Eastern Orthodox Bible. These books have feuled a lot of interpretations and theories. Many of those have been discussed on this show without even realizing their origins. J.J. Jonson of Southern Demonology rejoins us to address this topic. Part 2 of this conversation will focus on the academic view of Enoch, Jubilees, giants, Nephilim, etc. To address the uniqueness of the Ethiopian scripture, we review what Ethiopia is and was; the geography; the influences; the linguistics; and other factors. What's different and what's the same? Only one place to find out other than some pretty specific graduate schools. 

The NATO alliance solidified support for Ukraine's defense against Russia's aggression, pledging an “irreversible path” to membership once the war ends. Guest host Christina Ruffini and One Decision co-host and former United States Defense Secretary Leon Panetta spoke with Sweden's Minister of Defense, Pål Jonson, and Albanian Foreign Minister Igli Hasani on the sidelines of the summit in Washington. They discussed the significance of Sweden and Finland joining the alliance and smaller member countries increasing their contributions to NATO's defense spending. 

Sverige kan komma att köpa minor för att försvara Östersjön. Det stod klart efter att försvarsminister Pål Jonson skrivit under en avsiktsförklaring tillsammans med åtta andra Natoländer under pågående toppmötet i Washington. Den tyska försvarsministern säger till Reuters att ”minor är nödvändiga för att förhindra rysk expansion i Östersjön” De Fria är en folkrörelse som jobbar för demokrati genom en upplyst och medveten befolkning!

This week, we examine Shakespeare's contemporary and friend and rival? Ben Jonson! Jonson was a poet, playwright, and general scallywag who bounced back and forth between success and failure. His works are largely considered to be some of the best of the age, and while his stories may not be as well known as Shakespeare, his legacy is one worth hearing about... if anything, for the prison stories!

Episode: 1175 The collapse of the Elizabethan renaissance.  Today, we visit a 400-year-old revolution.

Ett nytt avtal låter USA ha soldater och materiel på svensk mark. Men när det gäller kärnvapen finns utrymme för tolkning. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. I juni ska riksdagen rösta om DCA, Defence Cooperation Agreement, ett bilateralt försvarsavtal med USA som bland annat ger USA tillgång till 17 svenska militärbaser. En majoritet av riksdagspartierna är för avtalet och försvarsministrarna Pål Jonson (m) och Lloyd Austin har redan träffats i Washington och skrivit under– Avtalet gör det lättare för amerikanerna att komma hit för samövningar, för skarpa insatser i kris och krig och framförallt så förenklar det formaliteterna så att det blir mindre pappersarbete, säger Robert Dalsjö, försvars- och säkerhetspolitisk expert på totalförsvarets forskningsinstitut FOI Det är till exempel krångel med tull, körkorts- och vapentillstånd som ska gå snabbare och att underlätta Sveriges roll i Nato som ett uppmarschområde mot Finland och Baltikum. – Nu är Sverige anslutet till Nato och där är USA en stor spelare också så att det här är ett steg för att underlätta Natos operativa planering, säger Jan Thörnqvist med stor erfarenhet av höga poster inom Försvarsmakten.Oro som går tillbaka till kalla krigetDet finns en oro att USA ska skaffa sig permanenta baser med amerikanska soldater i Sverige, soldater som i första hand hamnar i det amerikanska rättssystemet om de blir misstänkta för brott i Sverige. Men statsminister Ulf Kristersson har vid upprepade tillfällen sagt att det inte är aktuellt med permanenta baser i fredstid. Inte heller med kärnvapen på svensk mark i fredstid.– Det är knappast så att någon vill att vi ska ha något sådant arrangemang. Det finns brist på resurser och det är ingen som nu trycker på för att utvidga, säger Katarina Engberg, säkerhetspolitisk analytiker.Under kalla kriget var Sverige ett av de länder som tog täten i kampen mot kärnvapen. Samtidigt hade regeringen överenskommelser under bordet med kärnvapenmakten USA, men inget av det fanns på pränt. 2024 finns det de som undrar om historien är på väg att upprepa sig. Att Sverige går in i nya samarbeten med USA som lämnar viktiga frågor öppna för tolkning. I det 37-sidiga DCA-avtalet nämns inte ordet kärnvapen en enda gång och kritiker lyfter frågan om kärnvapen kan hamna på svensk mark i krig eller kris.– Ett bra avtal tar ju sikte på regniga dagar, saker och ting kan ändras i världen och då är det viktigt att man har ett avtal där det finns vissa garantier så att svenska intressen också efterlevs, säger Thomas Jonter, professor i internationella relationer vid Stockholms universitet.Medverkande:Robert Dalsjö, försvars- och säkerhetspolitisk expert på totalförsvarets forskningsinstitut FOIJan Thörnqvist tidigare insatschef i FörsvarsmaktenKatarina Engberg, säkerhetspolitisk analytikerThomas Jonter, professor i internationella relationer vid Stockholms universitetProgramledare: Sara Sundberg och Claes AronssonProducent: Karin HållstenLjud från: Sveriges Radio, SVT, AP, Sky News

One of the very first Boltguns, it was a progenitor all for its kind.The Emperor's Shield was once the personal shield of the Emperor, but it is now being wielded by the reborn Primarch Lion El'Jonson in M42.The Apollonian Spear was crafted alongside its sister the Dionysian Spear by the Emperor's own hand, deep inside his first underground fortress on Terra during the Age of Strife.Support the show

In today's episode, we are exploring the life and works of one of Shakespeare's contemporaries: Ben Jonson. Often called "Shakespeare's rival," Ben Jonson was an early modern actor turned playwright who came from humble beginnings to achieve success on the London stages. We'll dive into the parallels between Shakespeare and Jonson's lives, and we'll discuss how Jonson may be the person who we should thank for Shakespeare's First Folio.    Shakespeare Anyone? is created and produced by Kourtney Smith and Elyse Sharp.

What did English satirists do after the archbishop of Canterbury banned the printing of satires in June 1599? They turned to the stage. Within months of the crackdown, the same satirical tricks Elizabethans had read in verse could be enjoyed in theatres. At the heart of the scene was Ben Jonson, who for many centuries has maintained a reputation as the refined, classical alternative to Shakespeare, with his diligent observance of the rules extracted from Roman comedy. In this episode, Colin and Clare argue that this reputation is almost entirely false, that Jonson was as embroiled in the volatile and unruly energies of late Elizabethan London as any other dramatist, and nowhere is this more on display than in his finest play, Volpone.This is an extract from the episode.

Today's poem from Ben Jonson (also know by its first line, “Drink to me only with thine eyes”) has been arranged and set to music numerous times, and become so familiar that it is often recognizable even to those who no longer associate it with Jonson himself. Jonson's circle of admirers and friends, who called themselves the “Tribe of Ben,” met regularly at the Mermaid Tavern and later at the Devil's Head. Among his followers were nobles such as the Duke and Duchess of Newcastle, as well as writers, including Robert Herrick, Richard Lovelace, Sir John Suckling, James Howell, and Thomas Carew. Most of his well-known poems include tributes to friends, notably Shakespeare, John Donne, and Francis Bacon.When Jonson died in 1637, a tremendous crowd of mourners attended his burial at Westminster Abbey. He is regarded as one of the major dramatists and poets of the seventeenth century.-bio via Academy of American Poets Get full access to The Daily Poem Podcast at dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe

Alone, even the Lion has no hope of prevailing against such evil – but there are those who would aid him in his quest. Hunted to the edge of endurance, many among his Fallen knights have long-awaited the day their liege would return to redeem them. The Lord of Shadowed Paths must gather these lost loyalists to his side once more, and stride forth to vanquish a traitorous son and the twisted Chaos warband that calls him master.Faced with these strange times, the Lion can be certain of nothing and no-one, except for himself.

SynopsisToday, we note two anniversaries concerning Handel and his music in London.On today's date in 1710, the German-born composer's music was performed in London for the first time when excerpts from his opera Rodrigo were used as incidental music during a revival of Ben Jonson's comic play The Alchemist, written 100 years earlier.It's a nice historical touch that in addition to writing satirical comedies such as The Alchemist, Jonson had supplied the poetic texts for elaborate masques staged at the court of King James I. Masques were a kind of precursor of the lavish Baroque operas such as Handel's Rodrigo, which debuted in Italy just three years before its tunes were recycled for use on the British stage.By 1713, the vogue for Italian operas had reached London, and Handel was on hand to write and stage them. On today's date in 1713, his opera Teseo had its premiere at the Queen's Theatre in London. And, just to show that off-stage events could prove every bit as dramatic as those on-stage, the theater manager, a certain Owen Swiney, ran off to Italy with the box office receipts after the second night's performance!Music Played in Today's ProgramGeorge Frederic Handel (1685-1757) Bourrée, from Rodrigo; Hallé Orchestra; John Barbirolli, cond.
