I Auschwitz, en plats av outhärdlig brutalitet och död, tvingades kvinnliga fångar spela musik för att skapa ordning och lugn när arbetskolonner marscherade och vid ankomster som ofta slutade i gaskamrarna. I den nya boken The Women's Orchestra of Auschwitz: a Story of Survival (2025) berättar Anne Sebba, journalist och levnadstecknare, om den paradoxala roll som orkestern spelade i lägret: en orkester vars uppgift var att ackompanjera nazisternas folkmordsmaskineri, men vars musik samtidigt erbjöd ett slags mänsklig tröst och mental tillflykt mitt i helvetet.I detta avsnitt diskuterar Anna-Karin och Ivar detta, och mer specifikt dirigenten Alma Rosé, den kompromisslösa perfektionisten som styrde orkestern med järnhand – men som också räddade liv genom sin stränghet och krav på musikalisk kvalitet. Hur såg den moraliska bördan ut för dessa musiker, som dagligen tvingades spela i nazisternas groteska föreställning, samtidigt som de själva kämpade för överlevnad? Var de privilegierade överlevare eller offer som utnyttjades och förnedrades?Det handlar också om musikens kraft och skönhetens omoraliska dimensioner, skuldens djupa sår hos överlevarna, och varför orkesterns berättelse fortfarande provocerar och berör.Prenumerera på eller stötta Rak högerI takt med att fler blir betalande prenumeranter har Rak höger kunnat expandera med fler skribenter och mer innehåll.

In the world of arts administration, few careers can rival the breadth and impact of Deborah Rutter's. Her journey began with an early role working under the legendary Ernest Fleischmann at the Los Angeles Philharmonic and evolved into a series of leadership positions at some of the most prominent institutions in the United States. She has served as executive director of the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, the Seattle Symphony, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, and, most recently, as president of the Kennedy Center. Her influence has reached far beyond the walls of any one organization, shaping the national conversation around the arts and the role of cultural institutions in American life.In Part 1 of our conversation, Deborah reflects on her lifelong connection to music, which began in the third grade when she picked up the violin. We follow her path through her youth, her studies at Stanford, and a formative year in Vienna. She shares insights from her early years at the Los Angeles Philharmonic and walks us through her progression into major leadership roles across the country. Along the way, we explore what it takes to guide large arts organizations—everything from working with music directors and guest artists to day-to-day responsibilities, strategic planning, and the ongoing challenges of funding and development.[Subscriber Content] In Part 2, we turn our focus to Deborah's time at the Kennedy Center. She discusses the complexities of overseeing high-profile initiatives like the Kennedy Center Honors, leading the institution through the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic (during which she took a 95% pay cut), launching the REACH expansion program, and bringing hip-hop into the Center's programming. We also touch on the events of February 2025, when she was dismissed from her role by President Donald Trump, and hear her candid reflections on the future of the Kennedy Center. We close with a powerful quote that captures the heart of her life's work: “Quite simply, the artist holds a mirror to who we are as a people and nation and compels us to be better.”DoricoProfessional music notation and composition software from Steinberg.

Interpreten: Budafok Dohnányi Orchestra, Guido MancusiLabel: paladino musicEAN: 9120040731397Zeitgenössisches erklingt auf unserer CD der Woche, die Michael Gmasz wieder aus den vergangenen CD Empfehlungen ausgewählt hat. Darauf ist mit Guido Mancusi der Komponist und musikalische Leiter der Aufnahme in Personalunion zu erleben. Auch so kann Musik des 21. Jahrhunderts klingen.Regelmäßige Konzert- und Opernbesucherinnen und -besucher kennen Guido Mancusi wahrscheinlich eher in seiner Funktion als Dirigent. Dass er aber auch schon seit Beginn seiner Musikkarriere selbst komponiert, haben wohl nicht alle auf dem Schirm. Nachdem seine erste „Personale“ mit eigenen Orchesterwerken nun bereits zehn Jahre zurückliegt, ist es an der Zeit gewesen, sich wieder mit dem eigenen Oevre auseinanderzusetzen. Mancusi ist dabei in seiner Funktion als erster Gastdirigent des Budafok Dohnányi Orchesters zu erleben, dem er mit dem eröffnenden Scherzo zum 30-jährigen Bestandsjubiläum auch gleich das erste Werk gewidmet hat.Darauf folgt ein Feuerwerk an kürzeren und längeren Kompositionen, vorwiegend dem Tanzmusikbereich zuzuordnen. Walzer, Polkas, Galoppe und mit dem Zahlendreher auch „fast“ ein Marsch, irgendwie. Mancusi verschweigt in seinen Kompositionen seine Vorbilder gar nicht, sondern setzt diese, wie John Williams im angesprochenen Scherzo, sogar fulminant in Szene. Seine jahrzehntelange Erfahrung als Dirigent der Wiener Tanzmusik à la Strauss, Lanner, Lehár und co. kommt ihm auch bei seinen eigenen Werken zugute. So transportiert er die Stilistik des ausgehenden 19. Jahrhunderts elegant ins 21., in dem er sich sowohl mit der Wahl der Titel als auch mit seinem musikalischen Material zeitgenössischen Phänomenen widmet. Sie kennen die Tonleiter, die beim Losfahren eines Railjet Zuges erklingt? Mancusi hat sie für seine Schnellpolka Railjet Express im Jahr 2022 für eine rasante musikalische Zugfahrt nach Salzburg verarbeitet. Inklusive mozartscher Anspielungen … An legendäre Nächte in Bukarest mit seinem Schloss Schönbrunn Orchester erinnert der gleichnamige Walzer von 2007, an mit weißem Käse gewürzten Bauernsalat, der offenbar bis heute Eindruck hinterlassen hat, seine Polka Schnell Shopska Salata…s „alla bulgara“. Eine abwechslungsreiche CD, schmissig gespielt und somit auch ein schöner, zeitgemäßer Beitrag zum Strauss-Jahr 2025! (mg)

“Seventeen was that age when we were realizing… we have to do something about this.” That poignant reflection echoes the emotional heart of SEVENTEEN, a powerful narrative work for orchestra created in response to the tragic 2018 high school shooting in Parkland, Florida—an event that claimed the lives of seventeen students. Composer Ron Ramin was moved to begin work on this piece soon after, eventually collaborating with librettist Portia Kamons, and later joined by Jamie Bernstein. Together, they crafted a deeply human and artistically compelling response to an American tragedy.In this two-part conversation, I sit down with Portia and Ron to talk about the creation of SEVENTEEN and the many layers involved in bringing it to life.In Part 1, we begin with an overview of the piece itself, followed by a deeper dive into each of its four movements. Portia shares how the libretto was built from the actual words of young people, giving voice to a generation affected by gun violence. We also discuss how Ron and Portia came together to write the piece, the collaborative process behind their work, and how their shared vision took shape. We wrap up the first half of our conversation with the story of how the premiere performance came about, thanks to the support of the Orlando Philharmonic and its music director, Eric Jacobsen.[Subscriber Content] Part 2 opens with a look at the practical challenges behind producing a project of this magnitude, especially the complexities of securing funding. This leads to a conversation about future performance opportunities and what lies ahead for SEVENTEEN. From there, we step back to learn more about Portia and Ron's individual careers, and I pose a classic creative question: do artists need to feel inspired to do meaningful work, or can the work happen without inspiration? Their answers are thoughtful and revealing. And finally, we close with a broader reflection as I ask both of them how hopeful they feel about the future.This episode offers a moving and thoughtful exploration of how art can respond to tragedy—and how music can become a powerful form of activism, remembrance, and healing.DoricoProfessional music notation and composition software from Steinberg.

Alexandra is currently Head of Corporate Accounts at Angle Auto Finance, the largest independent auto financier in Australia. She manages strategic partnerships with some of the country's biggest dealer groups and plays a key role in the company's growth journey. Before joining Angle, Alexandra built her automotive career with BMW Group Australia, where she rose to the role of Area Manager. Interestingly, her professional journey began not in business but in music—she studied classical bassoon performance at the Sydney Conservatorium and spent her early career as a freelance musician.In our conversation, we talk about Alexandra's upbringing as one of four sisters in a vibrant, achievement-oriented household, her transition from the world of orchestras and auditions to the F&I office of a BMW dealership, and how that unexpected step sparked a fulfilling corporate career. We explore how she learned to create opportunities by asking bold questions, why she now feels more creatively expressed in business than she ever did as a musician, and how her roles in both retail and head office gave her valuable insight into the dealer perspective. We also reflect on the impact of becoming a parent and how it shifted her focus from chasing roles to becoming the kind of person she wants her daughter to look up to.Connect with AlexandraLinkedInAbout AndyI'm an experienced business leader and a passionate developer of people in the automotive finance industry, internationally.During over twenty five years, I have played a key role in developing businesses including Alphabet UK, BMW Corporate Finance UK, BMW Financial Services Singapore, BMW Financial Services New Zealand and Tesla Financial Services UK.At the same time, I have coached individuals and delivered leadership development programmes in 17 countries across Asia, Europe and North America.I started Aquilae in 2016 to enable “Fulfilling Performance” in the mobility industry, internationally.Learn more about Fulfilling PerformanceCheck out Release the handbrake!

Ron Ramin was born and raised in New York City. He earned his undergraduate degree at Princeton University, where he majored in music and studied privately with composer Milton Babbitt. Upon graduation, he moved to Los Angeles where he composed music for 20 Primetime television series and 30 movies/telefilms. Ron is the recipient of a CableACE Award, a Primetime EMMY nomination, and TV/Film Awards from BMI and ASCAP. In recent years he has shifted his focus to composing for the concert hall. This includes "Golden State of Mind," a symphonic suite depicting the beauty & drama of the California landscape and its cultural diversity. “Greetings!" was given its world premiere performance in 2016 by the Marin Symphony, conducted by Music Director Alasdair Neale. His latest work, SEVENTEEN, is a narrative work for orchestra and six on-stage Gen Z narrators. Days after the 2018 mass school shooting in Parkland, Florida, librettist Portia Kamons and Ron began to work on an artistic response to the relentless plague of gun violence in American schools and communities. Their attention soon focused on the rising generation of young people channeling their grief and anger into deliberate and effective action. They were bringing extraordinary commitment, determination, and energy to multiple challenges of their time. Ron & Portia were also determined to bring classical music audiences together with young people for an orchestral performance and thoughtful discussion. From the beginning they committed to employ verbatim text from the young Americans themselves. SEVENTEEN is their story, told in their own words. The Orlando Philharmonic commissioned it and gave the premiere performance Nov 8, 2024. Eric Jacobsen, their innovative music director, conducted the performance and Jamie Bernstein directed the six young on-stage narrators. The orchestra, to its credit, made this a free community event that included a thoughtful discussion and Q&A following the performance. A former Board member of the Society of Composers and Lyricists, Ron currently resides in Northern California and New York City.   Portia Kamons is a producer and librettist working with newly commissioned pieces in theatre, live events, music and feature film. With composer Ron Ramin, she is the co-creator and librettist for SEVENTEEN, a narrative work for Orchestra that received its world premiere by the Orlando Philharmonic on 8 November 2024. She was the Executive Producer for Virtua Creative on the US WW1 Centennial Commemoration narrated by Kevin Costner, as well as Exec Producer for "Visions of Peace" a special project for the WW1 Centennial with President Jimmy Carter. Portia was the lead producer of Tennyson Bardwell's feature film DORIAN BLUES which won 14 awards at festivals worldwide. She was a founding member and the first General Manager of Primary Stages Theatre in New York City, and a Producer for the NextWave Festival at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. For many years she worked for as a producer with En Garde Arts in New York City, and the London International Festival of Theatre in the UK where she lives. She is a regular consultant to Danish web-based documentary platform, OTHER STORY.     website: www.seventeeninamerica.com Instagram: @seventeen_in_america  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61561439852395 email: hello@seventeeninamerica.com Make sure you SUBSCRIBE to Crushing Classical, and maybe even leave a nice review!  Thanks for joining me on Crushing Classical!  Theme music by DreamVance.
