This Day in Legal History: O.J. “Not Guilty”On October 3, 1995, a Los Angeles jury returned one of the most controversial and widely watched criminal verdicts in American history: O.J. Simpson was found not guilty of the murders of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ron Goldman. The trial, which lasted more than eight months, captivated the nation with its blend of celebrity, race, police misconduct, and media spectacle. The prosecution presented DNA evidence linking Simpson to the crime scene, while the defense, led by Johnnie Cochran, argued that Simpson was framed by a racist LAPD, particularly Detective Mark Fuhrman.Cochran's now-famous line — “If it doesn't fit, you must acquit” — referred to a moment when Simpson tried on gloves allegedly worn during the murders, and they appeared not to fit. The defense used that moment to cast further doubt on the prosecution's case. The jury deliberated for less than four hours before acquitting Simpson, prompting strong reactions across racial and social lines.The case exposed deep divisions in American society, particularly around race and policing. It also helped usher in the era of the 24-hour news cycle and reality-style courtroom coverage, with networks like CNN and Court TV devoting extensive airtime to the trial. The not-guilty verdict did not end Simpson's legal troubles: in 1997, a civil jury found him liable for wrongful death and ordered him to pay $33.5 million in damages.Apple confirmed it has removed the ICEBlock app and similar tools from its App Store following pressure from the Trump administration and Attorney General Pam Bondi. ICEBlock allowed users to report and track the locations of ICE officers through crowdsourced data. Bondi stated the app endangered law enforcement officers and crossed a line by facilitating potential violence.The Department of Justice supported the move, citing safety concerns. This action followed an exposé by right-wing influencer Laura Loomer, who outed the creator of a similar app, Red Dot, and accused the platforms of enabling violence against ICE agents. Loomer also claimed that a recent deadly shooting at a Dallas ICE facility involved the use of such tracking apps.Apple defended its decision, stating it aims to keep the App Store a “safe and trusted” space, and that ICEBlock violated policies by potentially enabling harm to law enforcement. The app's developer, Joshua Aaron, criticized the removal, comparing it to how apps like Apple Maps crowdsource speed trap locations. He argued that his app was protected by the First Amendment and that Apple's action was a concession to authoritarian demands.Tech Giant Apple Bows to MAGA Demands and Removes ICE Tracking AppsOpenAI filed a motion in federal court to dismiss a trade secret lawsuit brought by Elon Musk's AI startup, xAI. The lawsuit, filed in San Francisco, accuses OpenAI of deliberately poaching xAI employees to gain access to confidential information about Grok, xAI's chatbot, which the company claims surpasses ChatGPT in performance.OpenAI rejected the allegations, calling them baseless and part of Musk's “ongoing harassment” campaign against the company. In its filing, OpenAI argued that employees are free to leave xAI and work wherever they choose, and that it is within its rights to hire them. The company suggested xAI's legal actions are designed to cover up its internal struggles and inability to retain talent.This case is one of several legal battles unfolding between Musk and OpenAI. Musk has also filed a separate suit accusing OpenAI of abandoning its original nonprofit mission. In turn, OpenAI has countersued Musk for harassment. Meanwhile, xAI has sued Apple, claiming it colluded with OpenAI to suppress competition—an accusation both companies deny and are also seeking to dismiss.OpenAI's legal response characterized xAI's complaint as a distraction from its own failings and a tactic to slow down competitors in the heated race for dominance in the AI industry.OpenAI asks court to dismiss trade-secret lawsuit from Musk's xAI | ReutersU.S. District Judge Michael Simon recused himself from a case challenging President Donald Trump's decision to deploy Oregon's National Guard to Portland. The Trump administration had raised concerns over public comments made by Simon's wife, Representative Suzanne Bonamici, criticizing the deployment as a “gross abuse of power.” To avoid any appearance of bias, Judge Simon opted to step aside, stating the case should remain focused on its core constitutional and legal questions.The lawsuit, filed by Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield, seeks to block Trump's use of state National Guard troops, arguing it is illegal and driven by political motives. The complaint alleges Trump is exaggerating protest threats to justify federal overreach and seize control of state forces. The case has been reassigned to Judge Karin Immergut, a Trump appointee.Bonamici, whose district includes much of Portland, made her critical remarks during a press conference with Oregon Governor Tina Kotek. The Department of Justice cited her comments in its request for Simon's recusal, arguing they could undermine public confidence in judicial impartiality.A hearing is scheduled for Friday on Oregon's request for a temporary restraining order. Similar legal challenges are underway in California and Washington, D.C., where federal troop deployments have also faced pushback. A California judge previously ruled Trump's actions unlawful, but that decision is currently on hold pending appeal. The D.C. case remains unresolved.Judge recuses himself from Oregon National Guard case | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Ludwig van Beethoven, a composer of some note.This week, we close with Franz Liszt's transcription (S. 464) of the first movement—Allegro con brio—from Beethoven's Symphony No. 1 in C major, Op. 21. Originally premiered in 1800, this symphony marked Beethoven's formal debut in the genre, and even in its first movement, we hear the young composer testing the boundaries of the Classical form inherited from Haydn and Mozart. The opening chords start in the “wrong” key—a bold harmonic gesture that signaled Beethoven's intent to shake things up, even as he worked within a familiar structure.Liszt, the great 19th-century virtuoso and composer, took on the monumental task of transcribing all nine of Beethoven's symphonies for solo piano. The transcription of the First Symphony, catalogued as S. 464, is part of that sweeping project. These arrangements were not simply meant to showcase Liszt's pianistic brilliance (though they certainly do); they were a way to bring Beethoven's orchestral works into the drawing rooms and salons of Europe—before widespread orchestral performance or recording technology.In Liszt's hands, the Allegro con brio becomes a brilliant piano showpiece, retaining the symphony's rhythmic drive, thematic clarity, and structural ingenuity. He translates orchestral texture into ten fingers with remarkable fidelity, using tremolos, arpeggios, and dramatic dynamic shifts to recreate the energy of strings, winds, and brass. The transcription is virtuosic but never flashy for its own sake—it's an homage from one revolutionary to another.Beethoven's First Symphony bridges the Classical and Romantic eras, and Liszt's solo piano version builds a new bridge, connecting orchestral grandeur to the intimacy of a single performer. It's a reminder of both composers' commitment to pushing musical expression forward. As you listen, you may forget it's just one person at a piano—Liszt makes the entire orchestra sing.We leave you this week not only with Beethoven's bold opening statement to the symphonic world, but with Liszt's brilliant act of translation—a distillation of power, wit, and elegance, all under a single keyboard.Without further ado, Ludwig van Beethoven's Symphony No. 1 in C major, Op. 21 – the first movement.

Nagy örömömre ezúttal apa és fia tisztelnek meg a stúdióban, akik ugyanazon hangszer két különböző útját járják. Onczay Csaba Kossuth- és Liszt-díjas gordonkaművész, a magyar csellójáték egyik legnagyobb alakja, aki a világ számos koncerttermében adott felejthetetlen esteket. Művészi pályáját a szenvedély, a tudás átadásának igénye és a zene iránti mély alázat formálja. Mellette fia, Onczay Zoltán csellóművész, a MÁV Szimfonikus Zenekar szólamvezetője, aki az új generáció lendületét, frissességét hozza a színpadra, miközben saját hagyományokat teremt. A műsorban családi örökségről, a tanítványoknak átadható tudásról, a közös koncertekről és a művészetben rejlő kapcsolódási pontokról lesz szó. Hogyan öröklődik a szenvedély? Hogyan válik az apa példája inspirációvá a fiú számára, és hogyan találják meg együtt a közös hangot a cselló rezgéseiben? Csaba a pályafutása során mindig fontosnak tartotta, hogy a zenét élményként, mély lelki találkozásként adja át a közönségnek. A tanításban is ugyanez vezeti, hiszen az interpretáció mellett a fiatal muzsikusok gondolkodásmódját, emberi tartását is formálni szeretné. Művészi vallomásaiban ott rejlik a hit, hogy a cselló hangja képes hidat építeni emberek, nemzetek és kultúrák között. Zoltán fiatal kora ellenére jelentős nemzetközi tapasztalatot szerzett, és már most saját generációjának meghatározó muzsikusaként tekinthetünk rá. Zoltán számára az apai példa korántsem teher, hanem inspiráció, amely erőt ad ahhoz, hogy saját hangját megtalálva új fejezeteket írjon a csellóművészetben. A zenekari munka mellett kamarazenei és szólóprodukciókban is megmutatja sokoldalúságát, mindig a közönséggel való bensőséges kapcsolatra törekedve.A Sláger FM-en minden este 22 órakor a kultúráé a főszerep S.

Hoje vamos mergulhar na Sinfonia de Dante, uma das obras mais visionárias e, ao mesmo tempo, desafiadoras de Franz Liszt. A estreia aconteceu em 7 de novembro de 1857, no Teatro Real de Dresden, sob regência do próprio Liszt. A recepção? Digamos… nem todos estavam preparados para tanta ousadia.Apresentado por Aroldo Glomb com Aarão Barreto na bancada. Seja nosso padrinho: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://apoia.se/conversadecamara⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ RELAÇÃO DE PADRINS Aarão Barreto, Adriano Caldas, Gustavo Klein, Fernanda Itri, Eduardo Barreto, Fernando Ricardo de Miranda, Leonardo Mezzzomo,Thiago Takeshi Venancio Ywata, Gustavo Holtzhausen, João Paulo Belfort , Arthur Muhlenberg e Rafael Hassan.Tudo começou lá em 1837, quando Liszt estava curtindo a paisagem do Lago de Como ao lado de sua companheira Marie d'Agoult. Entre um passeio e outro, ele mergulhou na leitura da Divina Comédia de Dante Alighieri. Foi aí que nasceu a ideia de transformar esse épico literário em música – mas não apenas música: Liszt queria juntar som, poesia e até artes visuais. Teve até planos malucos, como projetar imagens em lanterna mágica durante o concerto e usar uma máquina de vento experimental para simular as rajadas do Inferno. Isso em 1850 e poucos! Visionário demais, né?Em 1855, ele escreveu para o amigo e futuro genro, Richard Wagner, contando sobre a obra que estava compondo. A ideia era uma sinfonia em três movimentos: Inferno, Purgatório e Paraíso. Só que Wagner deu aquele pitaco clássico: disse que o Paraíso não podia ser representado em música. Liszt até aceitou o conselho – meio a contragosto – e deixou o último movimento em aberto, reduzindo-o a um coro feminino com trechos do Magnificat.A estreia rolou em 7 de novembro de 1857, no Teatro Real de Dresden, com o próprio Liszt regendo. E olha… foi um fiasco! Faltou ensaio, a imprensa caiu matando e até amigos próximos ficaram com o pé atrás. Mas a obra sobreviveu ao tempo e hoje é considerada uma das mais ousadas tentativas de unir literatura e música no século XIX.

If you “get” Gundula Janowitz, then you really get her, and this birthday tribute will be a delectable treat. If, however, you don't get her, or don't think that you get her, you might want to give this episode a try, anyway, for it focuses on her work as a Lieder singer. It is my contention that she was one of the very finest song recitatlists of the late 20th century. Like Grace Bumbry, Margaret Price, Helen Donath, and a number of others, she balanced her work in opera with superlative work on the recital stage. To support my informed opinion, I have found a number of rare live recordings from Amsterdam, Tokyo, and Athens, in which the beloved soprano performs (with her pianists Irwin Gage, Charles Spencer, and Peter Waters and conductor Rudolf Barshai), songs of Strauss, Schubert, Liszt, Wagner, and Hindemith. The episode is supplemented by music by Haydn, Bach, and Robert Stolz, the last an early-career Janowitz performance of his obscure opera Die Rosen der Madonna. In these works, she is heard in duet with Waldemar Kmentt and last week's featured singer, Hermann Prey. Herzliche (aber nachträgliche) Geburtstagsgrüße an unsere geliebte Frau Kammersängerin! 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.

Life of Liszt

Tonight, we'll read about the musical genius Franz Liszt as a child piano prodigy from the book “Life of Liszt” written by Ludwig Nohl. Liszt was a Hungarian composer, pianist and teacher of the Romantic era. He gained renown during the early nineteenth century for his virtuoso skill as a pianist. Since he often appeared three or four times a week in concert, it could be safe to assume that he appeared in public well over a thousand times during one eight year period. During his virtuoso heyday, Liszt was described by the writer Hans Christian Andersen (who has written many fairy tales featured by Snoozecast) as a "slim young man...[with] dark hair hung around his pale face". He was seen as handsome by many, with a German poet writing concerning his showmanship during concerts: "How powerful, how shattering was his mere physical appearance". — read by 'N' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

In his later years, Liszt increasingly pursued his favoured causes by using piano transcriptions of other composers' works; and his own symphonic poems appeared as transcriptions from the 1850s. In 1865 Liszt famously complained to Hans von Bülow that “I have better things to do with my time than transcribe, paraphrase, and illustrate, and from now on I will be more discriminating in this recreation.” This declaration, however, was not rigorously pursued, and the lucrative activity continued to support Liszt and his causes all his life. Raymond Bisha introduces a new album of Mozart and Donizetti opera transcriptions by Liszt, performed by Swiss-Russian pianist Konstantin Scherbakov, one of today's most versatile and accomplished artists.

Interpreten: Pablo Ferrández, Julien Quentin, Swedish Chamber Orchestra, Martin FröstLabel: Sony ClassicalEAN: 198028986328Manchmal darf es auch wohlklingender Hochglanz sein, der es zur CD der Woche auf radio klassik Stephansdom schafft. Wie das Album Moonlight Variations des Cellisten Pablo Ferrández. „Nachtmusiken“ scheinen derzeit Hochsaison zu haben, wenn man an die Nocturnes-, Serenaden- usw. CDs der vergangenen Wochen und Monate denkt. Mit der Nacht in der Musik hat sich nun auch Pablo Ferrández beschäftigt, und das, obwohl er laut eigener Aussage ein ausgesprochener Morgenmensch ist. Träumerische Melodien von Schumann, Schubert, Liszt, Debussy, Chopin, Ponce und Dvořák hat der junge Cellist Ferrández teils in Originalbearbeitungen, teils in Eigenarrangements mit Orchester- oder Klavierbegleitung aufgenommen. Mit den Rokoko-Variationen von Peter Iljitsch Tschaikowsky findet die CD aber auch einen ganz und gar nicht nächtlichen Höhepunkt, aus musikalischer Sicht aber völlig irrelevant…„Einer der Gründe, weshalb ich so gerne Lieder spiele, ist, dass wir mit dem Cello immer zu singen versuchen.“ So wird Pablo Ferrández im Beiheft der CD zitiert und genau das gelingt ihm auch in den unterschiedlichen Bearbeitungen auf dieser CD. Schon bei Rusalkas Lied an den Mond zur Eröffnung oder auch Schuberts Nacht und Träume. „Heil'ge Nacht, du sinkest nieder; Nieder wallen auch die Träume, wie dein Mondlicht durch die Räume, durch der Menschen stille Brust.“ Da ist er wieder, der Mond. Schumanns Träumerei oder der dritte Liebestraum von Liszt fügen sich genauso ins Spektrum und erhellen den musikalischen Nachthimmel, wie der kleine Stern Estrellita des mexikanischen Komponisten Manuel Ponce. Selten genug, dass das Hauptwerk einer CD, wie hier die Rokoko-Variationen von Tschaikowsky, zur Zugabe mutiert. Makellos und musikantisch gelingen die sieben Variationen auf ein Rokoko-Thema, wobei auch das Schwedische Kammerorchester unter Martin Fröst seinen Anteil daran hat. Aufmerksam wie die sprichwörtlichen Haftlmacher begleiten die Musikerinnen und Musiker und legen so ein Fundament, auf dem es sich wunderbar solieren lässt! Das Finale ist dabei ein feingezeichnetes Feuerwerk, bei dem sich Orchester- und Solostimme herrlich ineinander verschränken. (mg)

he German poet and journalist Heinrich Heine coined the term “Lisztomania” on 25th April 1844 to describe the phenomenon of frenzied fandom in Europe where women would physically assault Franz Liszt by tearing his clothes, fighting over broken piano strings and locks of his shoulder-length hair. Heine said there was something about Liszt's performances that “raised the mood of audiences to a level of mystical ecstasy” – which seemed to be a result of the combination of his good looks, his charisma and his stage presence. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how Liszt created an almost parasocial relationship with his fan base; investigate why critics are still reproving of expressive concert pianists to this day; and discuss whether the Heine was trying to extort money from performers like Liszt in exchange for better reviews…  Further Reading: • ‘The Virtuoso Liszt' (Cambridge University Press, 2002): The Virtuoso Liszt - Google Books: https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/The_Virtuoso_Liszt/koSQAjlxeOIC?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=lisztomania&pg=PA203&printsec=frontcover • ‘Forget the Beatles – Liszt was music's first “superstar”' (BBC Culture, 2016): https://shorturl.at/eipIP • ‘Lisztomania: the 19th-century pop phenomenon that made Beatlemania look tame' (The Telegraph, 2019): https://shorturl.at/lwNOP • ‘Before Beatlemania, There Was Lisztomania' (Great Big Story, 2020): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3sjCA8OPobw  Love the show?
