De la littérature à la musique en passant par le stand-up, la richesse de la culture libanaise a été mise à l'honneur lors de l'édition 2025 de la Journée de la langue française et de la Francophonie à New York.Parmi les moments les plus marquants, le concert pour la paix de la Francophonie avec le trompettiste de génie Ibrahim Maalouf, qui s'est tenu au Lycée Français de New York. Ce concert intime, véritable vitrine de la chanson française, a été fortement participatif, l'audience étant sommée à se joindre sans réserve à la douce et puissante voix de Hiba Tawaji, tandis que la trompette à quatre pistons de M. Maalouf les transportait.De « Papaoutai » à « La Bohème », tous ont pu se remémorer les paroles et mélodies qui les ont accompagnés à différents moments de leur vie, ravivant des époques désormais lointaines voire révolues.ONU Info a eu l'occasion de rencontrer le musicien, compositeur et maestro de la soirée pour discuter de l'importance de ce concert et de son art.M. Maalouf a expliqué que l'une des choses qu'il adore dans ses concerts, c'est qu'ils rassemblent des personnes aux convictions politiques, religieuses et opinions différentes, leur permettant de partager « un moment fort émotionnel, tous ensemble ».Il encourage chacun à assister à des concerts ou à apprendre un instrument afin de développer son langage musical. « Plus nous développons notre langage artistique musical, plus nous sommes nombreux à militer pour une bienveillance et une empathie universelles ».(Interview : Ibrahim Maalouf, trompettiste et compositeur ; propos recueillis par Cristina Silveiro)

Michele Paolino"La Bohème italiana"Emilio SalgariEdizioni del Capricornowww.edizionidelcapricorno.it “La Bohème italiana”, pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1909, è l'unico romanzo non d'avventura scritto da Emilio Salgari, un libro strano, anomalo e inclassificabile nel mare magnum salgariano di oltre 200 opere esotiche, tra romanzi e racconti, sfornate a ripetizione per sbarcare il lunario e compiacere i lettori, ma snobbate dai circoli letterari dell'epoca.Racconta le scapigliate vicende (in parte autobiografiche) di un variopinto gruppo di giovani artisti e letterati squattrinati e geniali che, abbandonando la vita di città (la Torino di fine Ottocento, qui ribattezzata “Grissinopoli”), si recano in campagna per fondare una piccola comunità artistica, la «Topaia».«Bisogna di nuovo ubriacarsi, abitare le soffitte e farsi crescere la barba». Come nel celebre libro di Henri Murger, da cui Giacomo Puccini trarrà la sua Bohème, i protagonisti di Salgari trascorrono una vita goliardica e spensierata, rocambolesca e divertente, fra abbondanti bevute di barbera e grappini, scherzi funambolici e lunghe partite a carte, rumorosi festini e incoscienti peripezie, infinite discussioni e schiamazzi teatrali, in una perenne situazione di ristrettezze economiche che li costringe a mettere in campo ingegnosi espedienti per ovviare alla continua «scarsità delle loro borse», come aste di improbabili oggetti, produzione di falsi papiri egiziani, apparizioni di spettri…E tuttavia, come nella Bohème pucciniana il Grande Freddo finisce per stringere Rodolfo e Mimì in un abbraccio mortale, così il testo di Salgari è pervaso dalla malinconia per un periodo della vita ormai perduto per sempre. Una rielaborazione ironica, scanzonata e dolceamara della sua stessa esistenza, agli antipodi del Salgari eroico. Un tentativo di onorare il proprio debito culturale, dichiarando a posteriori la propria appartenenza ad un movimento artistico e letterario, la “Scapigliatura” per l'appunto.Un Salgari molto diverso dal creatore delle avventure dei pirati malesi, lontanissimo dai mari d'Oriente e dagli esotismi per cui è diventato celebre: uno scrittore brillante, umoristico e insieme malinconico, vigoroso e anticonformista, ironico e scanzonato, talora nostalgico, mai decadente. Una (ri)scoperta preziosa; un piccolo capolavoro di virtuosa leggerezza. Un testo quasi sconosciuto, che vale davvero la pena di rileggere.«La Bohème italiana assomiglia a un messaggio rinchiuso in una bottiglia, a una richiesta d'aiuto, a una battaglia interiore tra malessere e voglia di vivere, a un invito, per tutti noi ‘cari amici lettori', a non smarrire le gioie, le speranze, la vivacità della nostra giovinezza. Una gemma rara, questa quasi autobiografia del papà dei nostri eroi, che non avrebbe di certo sfigurato tra i vasi di metallo prezioso, le perle, i cumuli di diamanti e di brillanti mescolati assieme, ‘scintillanti come tanti soli, sotto i riflessi della gran lampada dorata sospesa al soffitto' nel covo della Tigre della Malesia» (Michele Paolino). Emilio Salgari (Verona, 1862 - Torino, 1911) è stato il più popolare scrittore di romanzi di avventura della storia della letteratura italiana. Il ciclo dei pirati della Malesia, quello dei corsari delle Antille e storie fantastiche come Le meraviglie del Duemila (il testo più importante della protofantascienza in Italia), scritti senza mai abbandonare le sue case di Verona prima e di Torino poi, lo hanno fatto diventare celebre. I suoi più di 80 romanzi sono stati continuamente ristampati, con straordinario successo, e tutta[1]via fu sempre afflitto da angustie economiche. A lungo ignorato dalla critica, morì suicida nel parco di Villa Rey a Torino.Michele Paolino è nato nel 1966 in Borgo San Paolo, storico quartiere operaio di Torino, da una famiglia di origine lucana. Padre di tre figli, di cui una in affidamento, laureato in Scienze politiche, è stato per dieci anni presidente di circoscrizione e per nove consigliere comunale della sua città. Giornalista pubblicista, si occupa di comunicazione e di social media. Appassionato di musica d'autore italiana, conduce da alcuni anni una trasmissione dedicata a questo genere musicale su una web radio.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

‘Geluksprofessor' Ruut Veenhoven zette het wetenschappelijk onderzoek naar geluk internationaal op de kaart. Hij was hoogleraar Sociale condities voor menselijk geluk en richtte de World Database of Happiness op, een online databank waarin hij onderzoek naar geluk bundelde. Veenhoven had de ziekte van Kahler, een vorm van bloedkanker. Zijn vriend en collega Ad Bergsma vertelt over hem. Charles Aznavour begon zijn leven als kind van Armeense vluchtelingen en kreeg te maken met armoede en racisme. Hij wist uit te groeien tot een icoon van de Franse chansons. Aznavour was met zijn poëtische teksten en tijdloze melodieën niet alleen de stem van Frankrijk, maar ook de stem van de wereld. 100 Jaar geleden werd hij geboren en onlangs verscheen er een biopic over zijn leven. Wie was de man achter hits als La Bohème en She? En hoe wist hij zich van een arme jongen in Parijs te ontwikkelen tot een wereldwijd fenomeen? Lara Billie Rense praat over Charles Aznavour met muziekjournalist Jean-Paul Heck. In de podcastreeks Grote Geesten hoort u over indrukwekkende denkers uit de Humanistische Canon. Inge ter Schure volgt deze week het spoor terug van Baruch Spinoza. Spinoza was een Nederlandse filosoof en politiek denker uit de Gouden Eeuw. Hij stelde dat God en de natuur samenvallen en wees het idee van God als persoon en Schepper af. Dat kwam hem duur te staan. Als jongeman werd hij door zijn Joodse gemeenschap verbannen en zijn boeken werden door de rooms-katholieke kerk verboden. Pas na zijn dood wordt zijn meesterwerk de Ethica voor het eerst gepubliceerd en zijn ideeëngoed breed omarmd. Inge praat met filosoof en leraar Yoram Stein, historicus en hoogleraar Ronald van Raak en filosoof Tinneke Beeckman.
Karma is the law of cause and effect within every dimension of nature. However, while people study this divine law within diverse religious and philosophical traditions, they often ignore how our common use of sexual energy determines many deleterious outcomes for ourselves within the domains of life, society, profession, relationships, and spirituality. See the logical consequences of Rodolfo and Mimi's unresolved disputes, unbridled lust, and adultery through the contraction of an incurable and fatal sickness, the fate and fruit of our current humanity's former actions.

Send us a textThis week, a journey through the bonkers world of financial markets, absurd cultural phenomena, and personal reflections from the splendid shores of St. Barts.A Brief Memoir MomentI share a childhood anecdote about an imaginary kangaroo in my parents' wardrobe, a metaphor for life's absurdities and the early seeds of my contrarian mindset. From tales of youthful rebellion to the consequences of throwing stones at buses, I paint a vivid picture of life lessons learned the hard way and before the internet..The Week in MarketsI dive into the paradox of December markets:- Winners Ride High: Stocks like Nvidia continue their wild run, even as tech giants like Apple remain geopolitical pawns in the US-China game, the market cocks-a-snoop: Warren Who?- The Madness of MicroStrategy: Michael Saylor's strategy of leveraging meme stock madness to buy Bitcoin? Genius or depravity? I call it capitalism at its most unhinged.- Retail Phenomena: Ulta Beauty's rise as the "crown jewel of vanity" and Estée Lauder's fall from grace become metaphors for the insecurity-driven consumer economy and a stock market seeking unattainable perfection.Macro MusingsI connect the dots between today's financial euphoria and the late 1920s:- Foreign capital is flooding into US markets, fueling asset inflation and American exceptionalism.- AI dominance, bolstered by the US tech ecosystem, is likened to the golden age of the 1920s.- I critique the global disarray, from Europe's leaderless states to China's economic skids, and I hail America's continued structural advantage.Cultural HighlightsFrom Charles Aznavour's La Bohème to Nekfeu's Plume, I try weave some French musical genius into my narrative, underscoring the importance of art and reflection amidst financial madness.Closing ThoughtsSo keep tuning in for more acid insights, market musings, and the occasional existential riff. Because, together, unified, we've got the power.Hugh⬇️ Subscribe on Patreon or Substack for full episodes ⬇️https://www.patreon.com/HughHendryhttps://hughhendry.substack.comhttps://www.instagram.com/hughhendryofficialhttps://blancbleustbarts.comhttps://www.instagram.com/blancbleuofficial⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Leave a five star review and comment on Apple Podcasts!
Humanities West and the Italian Cultural Institute celebrate the life and art of Giacomo Puccini (December 22, 1858 to November 29, 1924) on the 100th anniversary of his death. His operas La Bohème, Tosca, Madama Butterfly and Turandot are among the most beloved and most often-recorded operas of all time. His arias are famous for both their emotional resonance and their melodic beauty—even among millions who have never listened to a complete opera. Puccini was born into a centuries-old family of Italian composers, and he began his successful career just as Verdi was completing his, quickly inheriting Verdi's renown as the greatest living composer of Italian opera. We have brought the internationally praised scholar and musicologist Gabriele Dotto from Italy to share the stage with San Francisco Opera's favorite Kip Cranna to tell some of the stories behind the composition of Puccini's heavenly arias. Giacomo Puccini and the Impact of Early 20th Century Media Gabriele Dotto will trace the rapid rise of sound recordings and film as competitors for opera theaters and the traditional business of music publishers. Puccini and his publisher, Casa Ricordi, demonstrated an extraordinary combination of artistic creation and commercial activity, using new and efficient strategies to market Casa Ricordi's opera repertoire to a globally expanding audience and “branding” Puccini as the publishing house's most iconic composer. Puccini Before Fame: The Composer in His Youth Clifford (Kip) Cranna will discuss Puccini's boyhood experiences, his musical training and his operatic influences. Cranna will demonstrate that some of the music Puccini wrote as a student was eventually recycled in his later operas. He will also concentrate on Puccini's first two operas, the rarely performed Le Villi and Edgar, which were composed before his first big hit Manon Lescaut—the beginning of his enduring fame and operatic stardom.

Act II builds on the suspense and burgeoning relationship between Rodolfo and Mimi, newfound neighbors and bohemian lovers in the Latin quarter of Paris. Their spark of divine love is juxtaposed with the contrasting passion and suffering of Marcello and Musetta, the latter whose adulterous liaison serves as the locus of lustful competition, jealousy, and spite. Such destructive tendencies are representative of our collective humanity's consequent obsession with carnal desire and adultery, symbolized in Revelations as the scarlet whore who entices the multitudes with false prophecy and blind promises that lead to intense affliction. See how spiritual initiates like Puccini warned against following blind passion and the ways to recognize salvation within oneself: the path of chastity or sexual purity within the perfect matrimony.
Because we American expats in Germany often celebrate Thanksgiving on the weekend after our compatriots in the US, I offer you today a second Thanksgiving episode, this one featuring the extraordinary Ina Souez (1903 – 1992), one of the few Native American singers to achieve worldwide fame on the operatic stage. (For those of you who are unaware, November is Native American Heritage Month). Though her career was truncated by world events, Souez's place in the history of recorded sound is assured by virtue of her participation in the series of Mozart operas as produced by HMV in the mid-1930s as souvenirs of the first seasons of the Glyndebourne Festival. Indeed, one could argue that her Fiordiligi remains the standard by which all other interpreters are judged. This episode also includes recordings from both ends of Souez's career, as it were, including an extraordinarily rare yet impressive and touching 1957 recording of Souez singing arias and songs long after her active career had ended. The episode also features Souez in near-definitive recordings from both Ernani and La Bohème, the latter particularly appropriate as we just recently observed the 100th anniversary of the death of Giacomo Puccini. Finally, this episode also serves as a memorial to Souez, who died 32 years ago this coming week. 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.

While revered throughout the world for its impassioned arias and romantic motifs, La Bohème conveys troubling messages regarding the nature and trajectory of modern living, particularly concerning sexual relations. Discover how Puccini, a Masonic initiate, encoded within his supercilious and compulsive characters a profound warning to those who would seek to enter the spiritual path. By flirting with presumption, indulgence, and desire, the opera's characters enter the wide and broad gate that leads to disaster; see how to avoid the pitfalls of contemporary existence so as to enter the straight and narrow way that leads to spiritual life, and which few actually find (Matthew 7:13-14).

While alchemy, kabbalah, tarot, and psychology have developed as distinct traditions throughout history, they share profound roots within the esoteric mystery schools of antiquity. Rather than forming a new age hodgepodge or vague constellation of disparate belief systems, these principles convey the multifaceted nature of spiritual practice and divine realization from different angles, constituting a unique body of experiential knowledge known in Greek as γνῶσις gnosis. Therefore, properly prepared individuals can utilize these insights for interpreting the highly symbolic, mystical, and alchemical art of opera, whose composers were often Freemasons initiated into the secret allegories and disciplines of the ancients. This lecture explains some of the spiritual traditions behind Puccini's La Bohème, which will serve for future viewings and discussions on its gnostic symbolism, especially in relation to creative energy (alchemy), character representations and archetypes (kabbalah), predictive, prophetic, and pragmatic implications (tarot), and the path of internal transformation (psychology).

More than four years ago, I published my very first bonus episode on Patreon, which I offer here in a fancy new setting and with a wonderful new coda. When I first published an episode on the great Ileana Cotrubaș in honor of her 81st birthday, I promised a bonus episode which would offer further examples of this treasurable artist's plangent and pathos-filled singing. This episode explores delves deeper into Cotrubaș's artistic legacy, examining roles that she took on later in her career, including Elisabetta in Don Carlo, Nedda in Pagliacci, Amelia in Simon Boccanegra, and Desdemona in Otello. In addition, I play excerpts of roles that lay somewhat outside of her normal repertoire, including Tatyana in Yevgeny Onegin, Konstanze in Die Entführung aus dem Serail, and Tytania in A Midsummer Night's Dream. This is followed by two extended live excerpts of her two greatest roles, Mimì in La Bohème and Violetta in La Traviata. The entire episode is capped with an exquisite example of Cotrubaș singing Bach, in anticipation of a new all-Bach episode at the end of the week. 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.

Film reviews - La bohème (Semi-staged) - Shaun of the Dead at 20
Peder Lindell talks "Descendants: The Rise of Red", becoming a pilot, and that time his height made him lose a role! About Peder: American actor and overall thrill seeker Peder Lindell has had a stunning rise in the entertainment industry that has continued to collect momentum. This actor/aviator/daredevil launched into the professional world of entertainment at just eleven years old, starring as Billy Ray in the Jungle Theater's production of "On Golden Pond" in Minneapolis. This impressive debut led to his Broadway Reimagined performance in "Gypsy" at the Pantages Theater, earning him accolades from across the Broadway World as "a fine young actor.” Within the last year, Peder's career has reached new heights. Lindell has joined Disney's widely beloved franchise, "The Descendants," as Morgie, the son of Morgana Le Fay, in the highly anticipated film "The Descendants: The Rise of Red." He traveled to Montana to take on the groundbreaking role of Gus in the state's first queer skateboarding film, "Scraps," produced by Colton Underwood. Back in Los Angeles, he gripped audiences in the role of Jason in his university's stage revival of "Bare: A Pop Opera.” Peder's talents extend far beyond the stage and screen. He took to the skies at just sixteen and is now an instrument-rated commercial pilot. He owns a Grumman Tiger prop plane, his beloved "sky convertible," which embodies his thrill-seeking nature. His interests are both diverse and daring. His adventurous spirit is reflected in his athletic prowess: a Division III ice hockey player at Loyola Marymount University, he has excelled in soccer, wrestling, diving, baseball, skateboarding, rock climbing, and snow and water sports. Lindell is certified in emergency first response and as an advanced rescue scuba diver, his daredevil streak also extends to the arts of parkour, combat, and stunt training. He's actively training for his skydiving certification, aspiring to perform his own stunts like his idol, Jackie Chan. Growing up in the artistic town of Northfield, Minnesota, Peder's journey into performing arts began with choir singing under the mentorship of renowned choral director Anton Armstrong. His talent soon led to roles in operas such as "La Bohéme," "A Midsummer Night's Dream," and "Hansel und Gretel," with performances in iconic venues including Canterbury, Southwark, and Nidaros Cathedrals, as well as Carnegie Hall. A decade later, his return to Carnegie Hall underscored Peder's enduring passion and talent. Lindell's standout performance in "The Abominables" at the Children's Theater Company received critical acclaim from The New York Times, solidifying his reputation as a standout industry talent. Peder's film work includes "Out Of My Hands" and "Down The Drain," which premiered at the Catalina Film Festival 2021. His 2022 supporting actor nomination for "Dead Cell" and his role in the medieval fantasy series "Hidden Falls" showcased both his range and depth as a storyteller. Praised for his "impressive naturalism" by the St. Paul Pioneer Press and described as having "the chops and charisma to keep us on his side" by the Star Tribune, Peder Lindell is now based in Los Angeles, completing his bachelor's degree at Loyola Marymount University. With his boundless talents and relentless drive, Peder is not just aiming for the stars—he's already among them. Follow the show on social media!

While it may have taken a few detours for Jonathan Tetelman to become the opera star he is today, the journey has been well worth it. Tetelman initially found success with his voice quite young, singing in the American Boychoir School and recording with the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Yet following years of vocal study, Tetelman stepped away from the arias to become a nightclub DJ in New York City. It was only upon realizing that opera was indeed his passion that Tetelman returned to the genre and found incredible success in the great music halls and houses across the globe. Tetelman now captivates audiences with performances in Madama Butterfly, Carmen, and La Bohéme – and with his albums “Arias” and “The Great Puccini.” Jonathan Tetelman speaks with host Alec Baldwin about the challenging transition from baritone to tenor, the work he puts in behind-the-scenes to understand his characters and how he navigates the physical demands of his career.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Book Vs. Movie: RentThe 1896 Opera Vs. the 2005 Movie (Based on the 1996 Play)"Rent" is a modern adaptation of Giacomo Puccini's opera "La Bohème." It tells the story of a group of struggling artists living in New York City's East Village during the late 1980s and early 1990s, dealing with poverty, love, and the AIDS epidemic. The late Jonathan Larson wrote the book, music & lyrics for the show and tragically died a few months before its Broadway debut on January 26, 1996. The plot revolves around a diverse group of characters:Mark Cohen is an aspiring filmmaker and the narrator of the story. He is grappling with his identity and relationship with his ex-girlfriend, Maureen.Roger Davis: A former rock musician who is HIV positive.

He falls in love with Angel.Angel Dumott Schunard: A drag queen and street percussionist who becomes Tom's love interest.Maureen Johnson: A performance artist and Mark's ex-girlfriend.
