Is Mixtape a “real game”? Honestly, who cares; we love this coming-of-age story set in the 90s from Beethoven and Dinosaur, through Annapurna Interactive. It's quick, it's robust, and it's memorable, and that's what we're after from narrative-focused experiences like this. Snackaroo is advanced Snap by way of Aardman, for up to 5 players, and while it's a children's game for sure, it's got enough meat in the bun for the parents of those kids too. It's from Rudi Biber and Ravensburger, and we really like it. Plus the wood glue is out for a QoL project to make a complex setup more simple, with the Descent 2nd Edition organiser from The Game Doctors, via Feldherr. All that, and being famous for five minutes on r/CasualUK, on Ep249. 00:00 - Getting Creami with ninjas 09:47 - Snackaroo 22:00 - Kris's house is famous 25:15 - Mixtape 49:44 - Getting sticky with The Game Doctors on Feldherr On this episode were Kris (@DigitalStrider), Peter (@XeroXeroXero), and Sam (@MrSamTurner).

This Classic American Tapestry episode is a reprise of Episode 13 from August 2021. It opens with Bruce Springsteen's 2026 “Streets of Minneapolis” and then explores protest music, its global origins and examples from Beethoven's celebration of the rights of man in the 9th Symphony's “Ode to Joy” and Irish songs of rebellion then shifting focus to American protest music from “Yankee Doodle” to abolitionist songs to labor anthems to the great Civil Rights songs of mid-20th century America to anti-war songs during the Viet Nam War era down to today and songs seeking racial justice as we explore American patriotic music and the freedom of which it sings – American freedom holidays on The American Tapestry Project.
El programa "La noche de Arjona" explora misterios del arte. La Venus de Milo pierde sus brazos en una pelea durante su transporte. El David de Miguel Ángel muestra proporciones incorrectas para la perspectiva y carece de circuncisión, desafiando el canon judío. Gaudí y la Sagrada Familia resaltan por la excentricidad del arquitecto, su inspiración natural y la destrucción de los planos originales, con la obra aún en construcción. Beethoven, sordo, compone su Novena Sinfonía usando cuadernos de conversación y vibraciones; en su emotivo estreno, no escucha la ovación. La leyenda de Robert Johnson, quien pacta con el diablo para dominar la guitarra, se revela como práctica intensa y marketing; muere envenenado por un marido celoso. Las dudas sobre la autoría de Shakespeare surgen por la falta de información y el prejuicio social, que impiden creer que un hombre humilde las escribiera. El Manuscrito Voynich, un libro del siglo XV con idioma y dibujos indescifrables, sigue siendo un ...

Sammy Hagar has made a bold claim: Eddie Van Halen didn't just change guitar playing—he saved guitar players. On a recent interview, Hagar praised Eddie as a "music god," comparing his genius to Beethoven and crediting him with revolutionizing not only guitar, but modern rock music itself. According to Sammy, without Eddie's innovations—tapping, whammy bar techniques, groundbreaking songwriting, and keyboard work—guitarists may have been left behind in a world dominated by electronic music and technology. Hagar also reflects on how working with Eddie Van Halen made him a better singer, songwriter, and musician. From classics like Love Walks In and Black and Blue to later-era masterpieces from Balance, Sammy argues that some of Eddie's most advanced and underrated work came during the Van Halen years they shared together. Did Eddie Van Halen save guitar players? Was his later work even more impressive than the early classics?

La pereza es un concepto que suscita muchas preguntas que solo pueden resolverse desde la filosofía. Por eso, esta noche hemos invitado a 'El Faro' a Iván de los Ríos, doctor en Filosofía por la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. Además, hemos conocido todas las curiosidades de los perezosos de la mano de Agustín López, director de Biología de Faunia, donde nacieron los primeros ejemplares de perezosos en España. Y, como cada martes, Alejandro Pelayo se ha sentado frente al piano de la SER para hablarnos del compositor clásico más perezoso: Beethoven.

A year ago, I published as my final Pride 2025 episode, Pears Sings Not-Britten, which explored the voice and artistry of British tenor Peter Pears in repertoire other than that written for him by his partner Benjamin Britten. Today's episode, a refurbished bonus episode originally published nearly a year ago has a new, catchy title that carries that theme even further, in that Britten is entirely absent, either as composer or as Pears's usual accompanist. Today, I feature collections of songs by five different composers, Ludwig Van Beethoven, Claude Debussy, Robert Schumann, Alan Bush, and Michael Tippett, all featuring Pears accompanied by pianists other than Britten, including celebrated solo virtuosi Noel Mewton-Wood, Murray Perahia and Sviatoslav Richter; with composer Alan Bush himself accompanying Pears himself in the thornily difficult piano part of his self-described cantata Voices of the Prophets. Of today's setlist, all but the Bush are either live or radio recordings which span three separate decades of Pears's career, and show an artist who, whether in his vocal prime or in the inevitable decline of his later years (and even after Britten's death), was fixated on expressing the finest shades of textual nuance and vocal color. Countermelody is the 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 author 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.

This might be rated PG-13+ please see my note below*In 1862 Christina Rosetti wrote the narrative poem Goblin Market. It was initially illustrated by her brother--one of the three leaders/founders of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, Dante Gabriel Rossetti and later it was illustrated by one of our illustrators from the Midnight Mother Goose story, illustrator, Arthur Rackham. (Note Christina had been working with a program helping women in what sounded like a rehabilitation program, when she wrote this poem.)I read this poem while outside, with aspen trees quaking in the breeze, occasional far off cars and neighborhood dogs... pastoral, but stretching it with more of a city-mouse kind of sense? Music for this episode is Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony used under fair use from the Internet Archive. *NOTE--For Listener Awareness: Christina was kind of walking along a fence if the Goblin Market is appropriate for all ages. From Wikipedia: "It tells the story of sisters Laura and Lizzie, who are tempted with fruit by goblin merchants.[1] In a letter to her publisher, Rossetti claimed that the poem, which is interpreted frequently as having features of remarkably sexual imagery, was not meant for children. However, in public Rossetti often stated that it was intended for children, and went on to write many children's poems." So, which is it?Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goblin_Market The drawing for this episode is by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, for the Goblin Market by Christina Rossetti.

And quite often, those symphonic masterpieces informed the work of great visual artists too. Numerous examples include Bach and Rubens, Mozart and Reynolds, Beethoven and Constable.

Join Horizon for MAESTROS, revealing God's beauty through music and art.
The writer Simon Barnes has two very public passions - sport and the natural world. He wrote about both for The Times for 30 years, covering seven Olympic Games and six World Cup finals, while also delivering columns on short-eared owls, mountain hares and “the organ-pipe contact call of lions." His books include reflections on the meaning and the soul of sport, and numerous titles about birds, including the best-selling How to Be a Bad Birdwatcher, in which he says: ‘Birdwatching is a state of being, not an activity. It is not a matter of organic trainspotting. It is about life and it is about living.' This way of seeing also informs his most recent book How to Fly – which examines not only birds, but butterflies, bees, bats and the deep human fascination with flight. Simon's musical choices include Beethoven, Scarlatti, Monteverdi and Messiaen.
**Clay Edwards Show – FAFO Friday: Florida Burglars Get Decades in Prison + Fake Cop Car Warning (Ep #1,225)** On this FAFO Friday, Clay launches a brand-new weekly segment called “The Weekender” — your one-stop guide to all the best live music and events happening across Central Mississippi. He recaps a fun listener appreciation night at Beethoven's Boardwalk, admits he was wrong about YouTube moderator “Little Nikki” being a guy, and drops a strong FAFO award on two Florida men — Victor Ogiste (35 years, no parole) and Ramone Davis (40 years) — who drove up from Fort Lauderdale and got busted for smashing car windows and burglarizing multiple vehicles at Burn Bootcamp in Madison during the 5 a.m. workout class. Clay sits down with Noah Sullivan of H&H Chief Sales in Carthage to talk about their 4th-generation family business, truck upfitting, trailers, and their new line of affordable electric golf carts and side-by-sides. He also runs down the weekend's top events (The Weeks at Martin's Livingston, Velcro Pygmies at Beethoven's Boardwalk, Molly Ringwalds and Arena Rock Show at Pearl City Park, Make-A-Wish Rodeo, etc.) and rants about multiple major acts pulling out of the Trump administration's America 250 / Freedom 250 concert after agreeing to perform. Plus, Clay issues a serious warning about a local guy driving a white Dodge Charger decked out to look like an undercover police car — lights, antennas, the works — and tells listeners: **do not pull over for anyone unless they have blue lights**.

This week, world renown bluegrass and old-time music virtuosos and educators Tony Trischka & Bruce Molsky recorded live at the Ozark Folk Center State Park's annual Arkansas Old-time Fiddle & Banjo Championships. Also, performances from the 2025 contest champions, fiddler Gwyneth Davis of Petit Jean Mountain, AR and banjoist Erik Brashers of Eureka Springs, AR. Each year, the Ozark Folk Center State Park hosts the Arkansas Old-time Fiddle & Banjo Championships. Competitors ranging in age from eight to eighty come from all over to test their skills and possibly be crowned a champion. World class musicians are brought in judge these contests and also perform on the Folk Center's evening concert. At the 2025 contest we were honored to have as our judges and performers, Tony Trischka & Bruce Molsky. Tony Trischka was born in Syracuse, NY and raised in a home filled with music. There were broadway scores and a sweeping range of classical music, from Stravinsky to Beethoven. The wide-open American vistas of Aaron Copland had an especially potent spiritual and visceral impact on him, as did the folk music his left-leaning father held dear. The Almanac Singers, the solo work of its founding members Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger, and Lead Belly's children's lp were in constant rotation. Trischka fell in love with the banjo by way of the Kingston Trio's 1959 recording of “M.T.A.,” and was able to experience the New York-centered folk revival by trekking to the Newport Folk Festival in the early to mid-'60s. He moved to the city in the early '70s and hit the ground running, settling in among a peer group of extraordinary musicians who saw American roots music as a thriving, living language that could be expanded and combined with other influences and sensibilities. - https://www.tonytrischka.com/bio Grammy-nominated, described as “an absolute master” (No Depression), Bruce Molsky transports audiences to another time and place, with his authentic and personal interpretations of rarities from the Southern Appalachian songbook and other musical traditions from around the globe. Best known for his work on the fiddle, Bruce's banjo, guitar and his distinctive, powerful vocals also resonate with listeners. His combination of technical virtuosity and relaxed conversational wit makes a concert hall feel like an intimate front porch gathering. Bruce's take on tradition has landed him in collaborations with some of the world's most highly respected players from roots to rock. https://brucemolsky.com/bio In this week's “From the Vault” segment, OHR producer Jeff Glover offers a 1985 archival recording of a notable contest fiddler from the past, Alison Krauss, performing the traditional tune “Gardenia Waltz,” from the Ozark Folk Center State Park archives. In his segment “Back in the Hills,” writer, professor and historian Dr. Brooks Blevins discusses the etymology of the name Ozark.

Send us Fan MailWhy did Beethoven lose his hearing?In this episode of The Classical Music Minute, we explore one of the most famous mysteries in music history. Ludwig van Beethoven began experiencing hearing problems in his late twenties, including ringing in the ears and difficulty hearing high sounds and distant voices.By 1802, he knew the condition was serious and progressive. During a stay in Heiligenstadt, he wrote the deeply personal Heiligenstadt Testament, describing the distress caused by his hearing loss.Although many possible causes have been suggested, including illness, infection, autoimmune disease, and lead exposure, the exact reason for Beethoven's deafness remains uncertain.What makes his story extraordinary is that he continued to compose some of his most powerful music even as his hearing declined.In just sixty seconds, discover how Beethoven's deafness became part of one of the most remarkable creative stories in classical music.Fun FactBeethoven's Ninth Symphony premiered in 1824, when he was profoundly deaf. According to one famous account, he could not hear the audience applauding and had to be turned around to see their reaction.About The Classical Music MinuteThe Classical Music Minute is a short podcast exploring fascinating stories, quirky history, and surprising facts from the world of classical music—all in about sixty seconds.Each episode offers a quick and entertaining glimpse into composers, masterpieces, musical traditions, and the curious moments that shaped music history.You can also read the written versions of these episodes on Substack, where they're published as short articles delivered directly to subscribers.About Steven, HostSteven Hobé is a Canadian composer and actor based in Toronto and a member of the Canadian League of Composers.

My guest this week is the actor Oliver Platt. You know him from The Bear, Chicago Med, The Three Musketeers, Beethoven, The West Wing, Frost/Nixon — honestly, the list goes on forever. He's one of those rare actors who somehow exists in every lane at once: beloved by movie people, television people, theater people, and apparently menswear guys too. We talk about growing up as the son of a diplomat, moving from Hong Kong to Japan to Washington D.C., discovering acting as a survival mechanism, early days in New York with Stanley Tucci and Hank Azaria, body image, GLP-1s, Paul Smith, Japanese denim, heritage workwear, and why sometimes you need to “give yourself the fuzzies.” * Sponsored by Bezel - the trusted marketplace for buying and selling your next luxury watch Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Join Horizon for MAESTROS, revealing God's beauty through music and art.
Cliff and Kendall are back with every shocking musical fact from Bach to Beethoven and from Mozart to Madonna! Also: segments like What the Kids R Saying and Songs U Should Know! And: an unmissable mini-countdown of the greatest 8 eight songs ever (???) This one's gonna set the roof on fire!
Cette semaine, nous commençons par prendre le temps pour expliquer la crise que traverse le studio français Quantic Dream. Il vient en effet d'annoncer la fin de son jeu service lancé en février, Spellcaster Chronicles, après huit ans de développement compliqué et un public quasi inexistant au lancement. Dans le même temps, la direction a présenté en CSE un plan de licenciements touchant 95 postes, 30 personnes étant déjà sur le départ à Montréal. Nous avons échangé avec des membres du syndicat STJV qui nous ont expliqué les raisons de ce naufrage. Côté jeux vidéo, on commence avec le nouveau titre du studio Supermassive Games qui continue d'explorer les jeux narratifs horrifiques avec Directive 8020. Si l'utilisation de tous les clichés du récit d'épouvante dans l'espace peut séduire, Supermassive se perd en rajoutant une surcouche contre productive d'infiltration. On continue avec le bijou nostalgique signé Beethoven and Dinosaur, Mixtape, qui met en jeu avec brio la bande originale de la fin de l'adolescence. On termine avec le jeu inclassable du moment, Forbidden Solitaire, qui revisite le classique des années Windows 95 dans une ambiance étrangement opressante.Jérémie Kletzkine, dans sa chronique jeux de société, nous parle des Derniers Droïdes.Chapitres :0:00 Intro4:03 Les news11:40 Plan de licenciements chez Quantic Dream36:01 Le com des coms40:26 Directive 80201:07:00 La chronique jeux de société : Les Derniers Droïdes1:12:20 Mixtape1:41:51 La minute culturelle1:48:38 Forbidden Solitaire2:07:33 Et quand vous ne jouez pas, vous faites quoi ?Retrouvez toutes les chroniques de jérémie dans le podcast dédié Silence on Joue !

I hate how they make you go home at the end of the day even if you applied the proper cooling gel the entire time you were having a day siesta just because Mr. Sir wants to power trip. Future Fights is stuck in the past and we need to free it. The quality of the Beethoven movies is inversely correlated to the quality of the symphonies they were named after. There is going to be a roast of Jada Pinkett Smith hosted by Tony Hinchcliffe just to test if Will Smith is rehabilitated from slapping

In this episode, Pastor Mike explores the weight of "famous last words," contrasting the final utterances of historical figures like Beethoven and Socrates with the seven statements spoken by Jesus Christ on the cross . He emphasizes the extreme physical agony of crucifixion, noting that while every breath was a struggle, Jesus used His remaining strength to pray for the forgiveness of those who mocked and executed Him . The discussion highlights the contrast between the uncertain or despairing words of unbelievers and the hope-filled declarations of those who trust in Christ’s finished work, presenting Jesus as a willing Savior whose heart is uniquely inclined to embrace sinners.

Thank you to Jerry for sponsoring today's episode on Patreon! Goethe's Faust is considered to be the greatest work of German literature. This sprawling, 2-part play occupied Goethe's life for nearly 60 years, from its original version, begun in 1772, all the way to Goethe's final revisions before his death. It inspired just about every Romantic era composer who came after it, including Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann, Brahms, Berlioz, Gounod, Mahler, and our subject for the show today, Franz Liszt. Liszt, who was in many ways the world's first pop star, was initially skeptical of Faust, saying that he couldn't relate to the eponymous main character of the play. He wrote: "Faust's personality scatters and dissipates itself; he takes no action, lets himself be driven, hesitates, experiments, loses his way, considers, bargains, and is interested in his own little happiness." But slowly, Liszt began to be taken in by this remarkable play and decided to try his hand at a reflection on it, writing a massive, 3-movement, 75-minute-long symphony that never attempts to tell the story of Faust, but instead reflects on the psychological nature of the 3 central characters: Faust, Gretchen, and Mephistopheles (the Devil). A lot of English-speaking listeners will know this as the story of a man who sold his soul to the devil, but for Goethe it was much more than that, and it was for Liszt as well. I've never talked about Liszt on the show, because frankly I've never been in love with his music. But this is one of the great things that these Patreon-sponsored episodes can do — help me discover pieces that I've never come across before. So today, we're going to talk about Liszt, Faust, and then take a stab at some of the greatest moments in this symphony. We'll talk about thematic transformation, a technique Liszt essentially invented and which is a vital part of understanding this piece.
