Ara Malikian es de origen Libanes, con descendencia de familia armenia y es un virtuoso del violín, quien hace ver fácil interpretarlo porqué lo práctica desde los 6 años cuando le fue impuesto por su padre y para esa edad, tanto él como su familia, vivieron en carne propia la guerra civil libanesa.Pero ese violín sería su tiquete de salida para estudiar becado en Alemania, y así, construir una carrera musical influenciada por Bach y Paganini, pero también por Paco de Lucia, Piazzola y hasta los sonidos del rap y recientemente, otros aires de la música contemporánea reunidos en su último álbum titukado Íntruso, el cual, lo trajo de visita a nuestro país para dos shows en Medellín y Bogotá.Tuvimos el honor de charlar con Ara sobre Intruso, sobre la guerra y su padre, también sobre su hijo, cómo es su entrenamiento actual y el significado que tiene el violín hoy en día para él y otros temas más.______Producido por Iván Zainea C.Música por Mario Andrés Salazar de Pluszeichen Records______Fotografía tomada de Instagram Ara Malikian

Take a minute to get the scoop!Fun FactFranz Liszt's piano concertos were so demanding that critics sometimes accused him of showing off. He didn't mind—he once said performing should “transport the listener.” Paganini caused similar uproar: audiences whispered he'd sold his soul to the devil to master the violin. Marketing hype, 19th-century style.About Steven, HostSteven is a Canadian composer & actor living in Toronto.

La figura de Pablo Sarasate quizá no es bien conocida por el gran público. Pocos son conscientes de la importancia internacional que tuvo este violinista navarro a finales del siglo XIX y principios del XX que le llegó a ser considerado casi la reencarnación de Paganini. A él vamos a dedicar el cronovisor de Jesús Callejo. Luego viajamos a la Edad Media. La mal llamada época oscura de la historia tiene en realidad mil y una luces que aún nos iluminan. La influencia de su arte, pensamiento y sociedad es algo evidente en nuestro tiempo. De ello hablamos con el catedrático de historia medieval de la Universidad de Barcelona, Jaume Aurell, autor del libro Legado de gigantes (Rosamerón 2025). Pablo Arias en su sección de Historia de la Ciencia 2.0 nos habla del código morse y de su inventor. Acabamos el programa celebrando los 75 años de Snoopy, el genial dibujo de Charles Schulz. Lo hacemos junto a Óscar Palmer editor y traductor de la obra Schulz, Carlitos y Snoopy: una biografía (Es Pop Ediciones 2009)

Nachdem Niccolò Paganini ein christliches Begräbnis zunächst verwehrt blieb, war die Konservierung seines Leichnams eine vorläufige Zwischenlösung. Nur wenige Tote dürften eine derartige Odyssee hinter sich haben wie der italienische Künstler. Vom Kellergewölbe über ein leeres Ölfass bis hin zur einsamen Insel reichte seine Wanderschaft, bis Paganini 36 Jahre nach seinem Tod seine letzte Ruhestätte auf dem christlichen Stadtfriedhof von Parma fand. Der Mythos um den "Teufelsgeiger" blieb aber lebendig.
Un apagón es molesto pero también tiene algo de pintoresco: iluminar con velas, soltar la tele o la computadora, quizás hasta desconectarse de internet por un rato. Otra cosa es cuando el apagón se alarga y comienzan a peligrar los alimentos en la heladera o si hace mucho calor o frío y nos quedamos sin aire acondicionado. Más todavía cuando empiezan a fallar las telecomunicaciones. Ni que hablar si se ven afectadas las bombas eléctricas que distribuyen el agua potable. Además, quedan fuera de servicio los medios de pago electrónico, ¿y quién anda siempre con efectivo encima? Los semáforos fallan y el tránsito se vuelve caótico y peligroso. Las escaleras mecánicas se detienen, los bomberos deben correr a a sacar a gente de ascensores paralizados, los hospitales pasan a depender de generadores de emergencia que no son infinitos. De golpe la sociedad retrocede al siglo XIX. Suena exagerado pero eso que acabo de describir es, a grandes rasgos, lo que ocurrió el lunes pasado al mediodía en España y Portugal: un apagón masivo que se extendió durante horas y que sumió a la población en una catástrofe sin precedentes. Además de todo lo que ya mencioné, el sistema de trenes y subterráneos quedó detenida, con los pasajeros dentro de los vagones. Las industrias, como la automotriz, pararon su actividad. Los aeropuertos redujeron el tránsito, los ómnibus se vieron superados, las calles se llenaron de personas que eligieron caminar largas distancias en vez de sentarse a esperar. Y volvieron a sonar radios a pila, el único medio de comunicación que seguía funcionando. Con el correr de las horas, y con las autoridades tan desconcertadas como la gente sobre las causas de la crisis, la electricidad fue regresando de a poco a partir del atardecer. Si el apagón hubiese durado más, los data centers donde se aloja físicamente internet podrían haber fallado y el parón podría haber tenido consecuencias más a largo plazo ahí donde a veces creemos que las cosas duran para siempre. Cuatro días después de ese incidente tan grave, todavía no está claro cuál fue el motivo. Pero una de las teorías puso en entredicho a algunas de las energías renovables: se sostiene que la apuesta fuerte que España ha hecho por la generación eólica y solar tendría como contracara una red eléctrica más frágil. ¿Qué hay de cierto en eso? Y dado que Uruguay es también un país muy volcado a las energías renovables, ¿nuestro país también está expuesto a accidentes o incluso ciberataques que nos arrojen al siglo XIX? Profundizamos En Perspectiva con dos ingenieros eléctricos y matemáticos, ambos vinculados en su momento con el GACH durante la pandemia: Fernando Paganini, vicedecano de Investigación de la ORT, catedrático de Teoría de las Telecomunicaciones en la Facultad de Ingeniería de esa universidad, investigador Nivel III del Sistema Nacional de Investigadores; y Andrés Ferragut, catedrático de Redes y Sistemas de Comunicación también en la ORT.

This Day in Legal History: Wong Kim Ark becomes Wong Kim ArkOn March 28, 1898, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a landmark decision in United States v. Wong Kim Ark, affirming that a child born in the United States to Chinese immigrant parents was a U.S. citizen by virtue of the Fourteenth Amendment. Wong Kim Ark was born in San Francisco in 1873 to Chinese nationals who were legally residing in the U.S. but ineligible for naturalization due to prevailing immigration laws. After a visit to China in 1895, he was denied re-entry on the grounds of the Chinese Exclusion Act, which severely restricted immigration from China and barred Chinese nationals from becoming citizens.The Court rejected the government's argument that children of Chinese immigrants were not subject to U.S. jurisdiction and thus not entitled to birthright citizenship. In a 6–2 decision, the Court held that the Fourteenth Amendment guaranteed citizenship to nearly all individuals born on U.S. soil, regardless of the nationality or immigration status of their parents. This decision established a major precedent for interpreting the Citizenship Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment and reinforced the principle of jus soli, or right of the soil.The ruling came during a period of intense anti-Chinese sentiment, when the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 and its extensions aimed to restrict Chinese immigration and civil rights. Wong Kim Ark was a significant rebuke to efforts that sought to limit the constitutional rights of U.S.-born children of immigrants, and it laid the foundation for future interpretations of birthright citizenship.The Senate's vote to repeal the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's $5 cap on overdraft fees is a clear signal: protecting bank profits matters more to Senate Republicans than shielding consumers from predatory financial practices. With a 52-48 vote, Republicans—joined by only one Democrat—moved to dismantle a regulation designed to curb exploitative overdraft charges that routinely hit working-class Americans the hardest.This isn't a technical policy disagreement—it's a choice to side with an industry that routinely charges Americans up to $35 for covering small shortfalls, even when the overdrafted amount is often less than the fee itself. The CFPB's rule was narrow, targeting only large banks and credit unions with more than $10 billion in assets, and still allowed higher fees if justified by actual costs. It was a modest, evidence-based consumer protection measure.The financial industry's immediate lawsuit and the GOP's use of the Congressional Review Act to kill the rule reveal the coordinated effort to preserve a lucrative revenue stream. The overdraft fee fight is just one piece of a broader Republican strategy to roll back protections the CFPB has implemented—protections meant to hold powerful financial institutions accountable.No one should mistake this vote as anything other than what it is: an effort by Senate Republicans to keep consumers on the hook, ensuring that banks and credit unions can continue bleeding them dry in the name of "choice" and "flexibility"—buzzwords that conveniently mask an enduring deference to corporate power. They'll couch these kinds of moves in language of fairness–pretending they ensure lower-income consumers are given access to these financial instruments. A moment's reflection, however, makes it clear that even under their best dressed reasoning they're looking to enable banks to charge exorbitant fees to account holders in precarity. Senate Votes to Repeal CFPB's $5 Cap on Bank Overdraft Fees (1)Yesterday, President Donald Trump issued an executive order against the prominent law firm WilmerHale, following its connections to Robert Mueller, the former special counsel who led the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. The order directs federal agencies to cancel contracts with WilmerHale's clients, revoke lawyers' security clearances, and restrict access to U.S. government buildings. This is part of a broader strategy targeting law firms with ties to Mueller's investigation, including Perkins Coie, Paul Weiss, and Jenner & Block.Trump criticized Mueller's investigation as an example of government overreach, labeling it as politically motivated. In addition to its ties to Mueller, Trump also accused WilmerHale of discriminatory practices in its diversity programs, echoing similar claims against other law firms earlier this month. The firm, which has a long-standing history of handling high-profile cases, responded by labeling the order unlawful and vowed to seek appropriate remedies.WilmerHale, a major player in litigation with over 1,100 lawyers, represents a variety of high-profile clients, including Gilead, Comcast, and Meta Platforms. The firm has also been involved in cases challenging actions taken by the Trump administration, fueling further tensions. Notably, Trump also targeted other firms for their involvement in the Russia investigation and opposition research, but some, like Paul Weiss, have managed to have orders rescinded by agreeing to specific terms, including providing legal services aligned with Trump's agenda.Trump Hits WilmerHale With Executive Order Over Mueller Ties (2)Trump targets another law firm, citing ties to Robert Mueller | ReutersA federal judge has temporarily blocked the Trump administration from enforcing a Labor Department rule that would force grant recipients to abandon their diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs. The decision, issued by U.S. District Judge Matthew Kennelly in Chicago, halts a two-week enforcement window of a January executive order that required organizations receiving federal funds to certify they don't operate any DEI initiatives—even those unrelated to their grants.The case was brought by Chicago Women in Trades (CWIT), a nonprofit that trains women for skilled labor jobs and receives federal funding. The judge sided with CWIT's argument that the DEI restriction violates First Amendment protections, noting that such a rule could pressure grantees into self-censorship. Kennelly also blocked the Labor Department from terminating CWIT's funding under Trump's directive to eliminate “equity-related grants,” though this protection applies only to CWIT and not nationwide.Kennelly's order represents a legal pushback against Trump's broader effort to dismantle DEI initiatives across government agencies and contractors. While a federal appeals court recently upheld a temporary ban on DEI programs in federal agencies and contracting businesses, this ruling suggests courts may scrutinize how far the administration can go in policing DEI-related activity outside direct federal oversight.The ruling underscores an emerging legal battleground over free speech, anti-discrimination law, and the limits of executive authority in regulating DEI efforts.Judge blocks Trump's Labor Department from requiring grant recipients to abandon DEI | ReutersA federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to preserve Signal messages exchanged by top officials regarding planned military strikes in Yemen. The messages, inadvertently shared with a journalist from The Atlantic, revealed internal discussions involving Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and CIA Director John Ratcliffe about timing and targets of attacks against the Houthi militant group. U.S. District Judge James Boasberg's ruling mandates that all Signal messages sent between March 11 and March 15 be retained by the agencies involved.The order came in response to a lawsuit filed by American Oversight, a government watchdog group, which argued that the use of auto-deleting messaging apps like Signal violated federal record-keeping laws. The lawsuit doesn't focus on the national security aspects of the disclosure but rather on the legal obligation of government agencies to preserve official communications.The controversy deepened after Attorney General Pam Bondi publicly criticized Boasberg, accusing him of political bias and claiming he was attempting to obstruct Trump's agenda. Trump himself has previously called for Boasberg's impeachment after the judge blocked a deportation policy targeting Venezuelan migrants—an action later upheld by an appeals court.The White House has not commented on the matter, but the episode has sparked scrutiny over the administration's handling of sensitive military planning and whether efforts to bypass official communication channels undermine transparency and accountability.Judge orders Trump administration to preserve Yemen attack plan messages | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Sergei Rachmaninoff.This week's closing theme is one of the most beloved and instantly recognizable moments in all of classical music: Variation XVIII from Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini, Op. 43 by Sergei Rachmaninoff, in a solo piano arrangement by Schultz. Rachmaninoff composed the Rhapsody in 1934 during his later years in exile from Russia, blending his romantic sensibilities with virtuoso brilliance. The work is a set of 24 variations on the 24th Caprice by Niccolò Paganini, itself a legendary theme known for dazzling technical demands.While most of the piece is fiery and rhythmic, the 18th variation stands apart—lyrical, sweeping, and emotionally expansive. In fact, it's a musical inversion of Paganini's theme, reimagined as a lush romantic melody that seems to rise straight out of the piano's depths. Rachmaninoff himself admitted it was his favorite part of the piece, and it's easy to understand why: it's tender, grand, and full of longing.This solo arrangement by Schultz pares down the orchestral drama but keeps all the expressive power, letting the piano sing with full-hearted warmth. The variation has since transcended its classical origins, appearing in films, commercials, and pop culture, yet it never loses its emotional punch. It's the kind of music that doesn't need explanation—it just resonates.Rachmaninoff, ever the late Romantic in a century veering toward modernism, poured his soul into his music. This variation, placed deep in a virtuosic whirlwind, emerges like a moment of clarity—an unguarded confession in a storm. Let it carry you out this week. This is a public episode.

Strap on your axe, and join the Hosts on a wild ride tracing the haunted strings of Rock N' Roll back to its legendarily devilish roots. We start with Niccolò Paganini, the original “Devil's Violinist,” whose near supernatural skills on the violin were claimed to be infernal in origin.But at the center of the story is Robert Johnson, the Delta blues legend who allegedly sold his everlasting soul for mastery at his musical craft. Late on evening at dark, dusty Mississippi crossroads, Johnson met the devil himself to strike the bargain - and the rest is Rock history. Buckle up as as we crank it to eleven, and explore how these eerie legends have woven themselves into the very DNA of rock, echoing through its history with a chilling, thrilling resonance.

From classical concertos to jazz and rock & roll, from symphonic masterpieces to the most experimental compositions of living composers, Haas has championed, commissioned, unearthed and celebrated music for his instrument, becoming, as Ovation magazine hailed him, "The Paganini of the timpani."His concerts on the world's most prestigious musical stages and his ground-breaking recordings have delighted critics and listeners on both sides of the ocean. The New York Times wrote, "Wherever one finds a percussion instrument waiting to be rubbed, shook, struck or strummed, [Haas] is probably nearby, ready to fulfill his duties with consummate expertise... he is a masterful young percussionist."Most recently, Haas has garnered widespread praise and attention for his performances of Philip Glass' Concerto Fantasy for Two Timpanists and Orchestra, a piece conceived by Haas and completed because of his quest to spotlight the timpani. The Concerto Fantasy features not only two timpanists, but also 14 timpani, all placed downstage in front of the orchestra. In 2000, Haas performed the world premiere of the piece with the American Symphony, and he has subsequently performed it at Carnegie Hall and in Phoenix, New Jersey, Baltimore, Pasadena, Long Beach (California), St. Louis and Mexico City. Haas also performed the European premiere with the BBC Symphony in London, the world premiere of a chamber orchestra version with the Iris Chamber Orchestra in Memphis, the Czechoslovakian premiere with the Prague Symphony Orchestra at the International Music Prague Spring Festival, the Norwegian premiere with the Bergen Philharmonic, and he will perform the Australian premiere with the Sydney Symphony and the Turkish premiere with the Istanbul Philharmonic.Haas' successful efforts to expand the timpani repertoire have led him to commission and premiere more than 25 works by composers in addition to Philip Glass such as Stephen Albert, Marius Constant, Irwin Bazelon, Eric Ewazen, Thomas Hamilton, Robert Hall Lewis, Jean Piche, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Andrew Thomas, and many others.Haas built the world's largest timpani and debuted it in 2003 at the Aspen Music Festival. This unprecendented, incredible instrument -- nearly 6' wide and nearly 4' tall – beats the world's second-largest timpani — a 48-incher used by Amsterdam's Concertgebouw Orchestra — by almost half.Haas' recordings include the trail-blazing 18th Century Concertos for Timpani and Orchestra and Johnny H. and the Prisoners of Swing, both on Sunset Records. The latter was named for his jazz group and features innovative renderings of jazz compositions featuring "hot timpani" in front of a full jazz ensemble. His rediscovery of Duke Ellington's brilliant composition for jazz timpani, "Tympaturbably Blue," is included on this recording, as are other jazz standards played on a set of ten kettledrums.Demonstrating a remarkable versatility as a musician, Haas has performed and recorded with Emerson, Lake and Palmer, played on the Grammy Award-winning recording Zappa's Universe, recorded with Aerosmith, Michael Bolton, Black Sabbath, and explored heavy metal with his rock group Clozshave.The rarest of modern virtuosi, Haas embarked on his career as a solo timpanist by performing the only solo timpani recital ever presented at Carnegie Recital Hall in 1980. As an orchestral soloist, he made his debut with the New York Chamber Orchestra under Maxim Shostakovich and his European solo debut with the Bournemouth Sinfonietta. He made his French debut performing Andrez Panufnick's Concerto for Percussion, Timpani and Orchestra with the Orchestra de la Garde Republicaine. He was the soloist in the Druschetsky Concerto for Eight Timpani, Oboe and Orchestra with the Aspen Chamber Orchestra. He has also performed as a solo timpanist for the Distinguished Artists Recital Series at New York's 92nd Street ‘Y' and as a guest artist with the Lincoln Center Chamber Society, the Chamber Music at the ‘Y' Series, and the Newport Chamber Music Festival. He has championed new music by presenting adventuresome programming such as The Music of Frank Zappa, showcasing the music of Edgar Varese and Frank Zappa, under the auspices of Lincoln Center's Great Performers Series.Haas is the principal timpanist of the New York Chamber Orchestra, the Aspen Chamber Orchestra and EOS Ensemble, principal percussionist of the American Symphony Orchestra, and a member of the American Composers Orchestra. He performs with the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, Mostly Mozart Festival Orchestra, New York Pops, and New Jersey Symphony and has performed and recorded with the New York Philharmonic, the Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra and the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra.A graduate of Washington University in St. Louis, Haas received his Master's Degree from the Juilliard School as a student of Saul Goodman. An inspiring teacher, he has been the director of the Peabody Conservatory Percussion Studio for twenty years and a faculty artist of the Aspen Music School, and he conducts the percussion ensembles at both schools. He has presented master classes throughout the United States and internationally at the Toho Gauken, Hanoi Conservatory, Paris Conservatory, and the Graz Percussion School. Sharing his enthusiasm for music with young people, he has presented over two hundred concert-demonstrations with his "Drumfire" program, under the auspices of the Lincoln Center Institute, the New York Chamber Symphony's Sidney Wolff Children's Concert Series, and the Aspen Festival Young Person's Concert Series.As active an entrepreneur as he is an artist, Haas heads Sunset Records, Kettles and Company, and Gemini Music Productions which contracts musicians for Lincoln Center, New York Pops, and many other organizations. He also works closely with percussion industry manufacturers Pearl/Adams, Promark and Zildjian, among others.Clayton Craddock founded Broadway Drumming 101, an in-depth online platform offering specialized mentorship and a carefully curated collection of resources tailored for aspiring and professional musicians.Clayton's Broadway and Off-Broadway credits include tick, tick…BOOM!, Altar Boyz, Memphis The Musical, Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill, Ain't Too Proud – The Life and Times of The Temptations, Cats: The Jellicle Ball, and The Hippest Trip: The Soul Train Musical.
