Haut den Owend um 19:30 Auer spillen d´Lëtzebuerger Philharmoniker eng konzertant Versioun vum Richard Wagner sengem Fliegenden Holländer. Hannert dem Dirigentepult: de 25 järege finneschen Dirigent Tarmo Peltokoski. Den international unerkannte Wagnerianer hat schonn am Alter vun 22 Joer d´Integral vum Ring dirigéiert. Am Gespréich mam Marie Trussart erkläert hien ënner anerem, firwat hien denkt datt een d´Konscht vum Kënschtler muss trennen an och wéi seng Faszinatioun fir de Wagner iwwerhaapt ugefaangen huet.

Een matroos klimt naar het kraaiennest. Wat hij ziet, doethet bloed in zijn aderen bevriezen: een schip, gehuld in een vurige gloed, dobbert als een geest over de deinende zee. Hij ziet zeilen, maar geen teken van leven. Er bestaat voor hem geen twijfel: dit is het verdoemde schip waarover in elke haven wordt gefluisterd — de Vliegende Hollander die nooit zal aanmeren… Patrick Bassant gaat op zoek naar de oorsprong van deze intrigerende mythe, van een Australische gentleman-crimineel naar de slavenhandel, een duivelspact en het einde van de VOC, Britse rancune en Duitse romantiek, en we varen langs de vele verschijningen van de Vliegende Hollander in literatuur en cultuur, van zombiebevers, Jack Sparrow, de fluwelen broek bij Gerard Reve, de verdoemde papegaai van Jef Last en de foute Hollander in dienst van de Kriegsmarine bij Louis Ferron. Hopelijk vinden we dan onze rust… Tekst: Patrick Bassant, Gerard Reve, Jef Last enLouis Ferron. Opname, montage, AI, sound design: Patrick.

This Day in Legal History: Fair Housing ActOn this day in legal history, April 11, 1968, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act of 1968 into law, a pivotal expansion of civil rights protections in the United States. Commonly referred to as the Fair Housing Act, the legislation was enacted just days after the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., whose legacy of nonviolent activism heavily influenced its passage. The law made it illegal to discriminate in the sale, rental, financing, or advertising of housing based on race, color, religion, or national origin.It aimed to dismantle the systemic barriers that had long segregated American cities and suburbs, including redlining, racially restrictive covenants, and other discriminatory practices. Title VIII of the Act directly addressed these inequities and empowered the federal government to enforce fair housing standards for the first time. Though political resistance to housing integration had stalled similar legislation for years, the national mourning following Dr. King's death shifted public and congressional sentiment.Johnson, in a nationally televised address, described the signing as a tribute to Dr. King's life and a necessary step toward realizing the full promise of civil rights in America. Subsequent amendments expanded protections to include sex, disability, and familial status, making the Fair Housing Act one of the most comprehensive civil rights laws on the books. Enforcement mechanisms, however, remained a challenge, and litigation over housing discrimination has continued into the present day.The law has been central to major legal battles over zoning laws, gentrification, and access to affordable housing. It also laid the groundwork for subsequent legislation aimed at combating economic and racial segregation. While the Act did not instantly eliminate housing discrimination, it marked a legal turning point that recognized the home as a critical site of equality and opportunity.A small team from the Department of Government Efficiency (DGE), created under Elon Musk's initiative to reduce government spending and staffing, has arrived at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC), according to an internal email from the agency. While the team is working with FDIC leadership to identify internal efficiencies, it does not have access to sensitive or confidential bank data, including resolution plans, deposit insurance records, or examination materials. The FDIC emphasized that the DGE operatives are full-time federal employees working under formal interagency agreements and have not sought access to confidential information.DGE has previously drawn concern from industry participants during its visit to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau due to fears over data exposure. The FDIC oversees highly sensitive information about major U.S. banks and their failure plans, which regulators rely on during crises. The number and identity of DGE team members at the FDIC have not been disclosed, and the agency declined to comment further.The agency is also preparing for staff reductions, following the Trump administration's deferred resignation program that has already led to the loss of 500 FDIC employees. Additional buyouts and formal layoffs are expected soon. The timing of DGE's involvement comes as global markets react to new tariffs announced by President Trump, prompting concerns from former officials about weakening regulators' ability to respond to potential financial instability.DOGE Arrives at FDIC but Doesn't Have Access to Bank Data (2)At least three major law firms—Kirkland & Ellis, Latham & Watkins, and Simpson Thacher & Bartlett—are in talks with the Trump administration to reach a joint agreement that would commit over $300 million in pro bono services to causes favored by the White House. The potential deal is also intended to resolve federal investigations into the firms' diversity programs, which the administration has scrutinized for alleged discriminatory practices. If finalized, the arrangement would bring the total pledged in pro bono services from various firms to at least $640 million.President Trump, speaking at a Cabinet meeting, hinted that a handful of firms remain in negotiations, emphasizing that many firms have already paid significant sums or made concessions. He stated that he expects lawyers from participating firms to assist with policy efforts such as implementing tariffs and expanding coal mining.The administration has previously targeted several firms with executive orders for representing causes or clients viewed as oppositional to Trump's agenda. These orders have included punitive measures such as revoking security clearances and restricting federal access. Some firms—like Perkins Coie and Jenner & Block—have successfully blocked these actions in court, while others like Paul Weiss settled by agreeing to pro bono contributions. Firms such as Skadden and Milbank preemptively negotiated similar deals.Trump Talks Deal With Three Massive Law Firms as Others FightA U.S. immigration judge is set to rule today on whether Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian student activist at Columbia University, can be deported. Khalil, who holds Algerian citizenship and became a lawful U.S. permanent resident last year, was arrested last month at his New York City apartment and transferred to an immigration jail in rural Louisiana. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has called for Khalil's removal under the 1952 Immigration and Nationality Act, arguing that his presence in the U.S. poses foreign policy risks due to his role in pro-Palestinian campus protests.Rubio's letter to the court claims Khalil was involved in “antisemitic protests and disruptive activities” but does not accuse him of any crimes. Instead, Rubio argues the government can revoke legal status based solely on speech or associations if deemed harmful to U.S. interests. Khalil's attorneys say the case is an attempt to punish constitutionally protected speech and have called the letter politically motivated and authoritarian in tone.They are requesting to subpoena and depose Rubio as part of their defense. The immigration court hearing the case operates under the Department of Justice and is separate from the federal judiciary. Khalil is also suing in a New Jersey federal court, alleging that his arrest, detention, and transfer far from his legal team and family were unconstitutional.US immigration judge to decide whether Columbia student Mahmoud Khalil can be deported | ReutersPresident Trump signed a bill nullifying a revised IRS rule that would have broadened the definition of a “broker” to include decentralized cryptocurrency exchanges, or DeFi platforms. The rule, finalized in the final weeks of the Biden administration, was part of a broader IRS effort to tighten crypto tax enforcement and was rooted in the 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. It would have required DeFi platforms to report user transactions to both the IRS and the users themselves.The crypto industry strongly opposed the rule, arguing that DeFi platforms do not function like traditional brokers and lack access to user identities, making compliance impossible. Centralized exchanges like Coinbase and Kraken, by contrast, already meet these reporting requirements as intermediaries. Both the House and Senate voted in March to repeal the IRS rule through the Congressional Review Act, which allows Congress to overturn recent federal regulations with a majority vote.Trump, who has positioned himself as a pro-crypto candidate, had campaigned on promises to support digital asset innovation. Since taking office, he has formed a federal cryptocurrency working group and signed an executive order to establish a national bitcoin reserve.Trump signs bill to nullify expanded IRS crypto broker rule | ReutersThis week's closing theme takes us back to April 13, 1850, when Richard Wagner's opera Lohengrin premiered in Weimar under the baton of his friend and supporter, Franz Liszt. Wagner, one of the most influential and controversial figures in classical music, was then in political exile, and unable to attend the debut of what would become one of his most iconic works. Known for his revolutionary approach to opera—melding music, drama, and mythology—Wagner crafted Lohengrin as a sweeping, mystical tale of a knight of the Holy Grail who arrives in a swan-drawn boat to defend the innocent Elsa of Brabant. The opera's shimmering textures, leitmotif-driven score, and spiritual overtones would set the stage for his later monumental works like Tristan und Isolde and the Ring Cycle.Lohengrin remains best known for its third-act bridal chorus—“Here Comes the Bride”—but the opera's deeper themes of identity, trust, and the cost of forbidden questions give it lasting emotional and philosophical weight. Set in a quasi-medieval world laced with mystery, the opera tells of a hero who must depart the moment his name is asked, leaving love suspended in silence. Wagner's orchestration in Lohengrin is luminous and patient, often evoking shimmering water and distant prophecy, with long-breathed phrases that seem to float above time.As a closing theme for this week, Lohengrin invites reflection—on belief, on leadership, and on how history so often pivots on names, silence, and the tension between loyalty and doubt. Its premiere on April 13th marks not only a moment in Wagner's evolution as a composer but also a cultural point of departure, where German Romanticism began leaning toward something darker and more transcendental. We end the week, then, with the slow unfurling of Lohengrin's prelude: a gentle, ascending shimmer that begins almost imperceptibly, and rises—like the swan on the river—toward the unknown.This week, we close with the prelude to Lohengrin by Richard Wagner—music of undeniable beauty from a composer whose legacy includes both brilliance and deeply troubling beliefs. We share it for its artistry, not its ideology. Without further ado, Richard Wagner's Lohengrin, the prelude. Enjoy! This is a public episode.

Jaume Segalés y su equipo hablan de Música para Hitler, del Plan Vive y de las palabras parasintéticas. Hoy en Km0, tras repasar la actualidad informativa y deportiva, profundizamos en los siguientes asuntos: "Música para Hitler" Es conocido que Richard Wagner era el compositor favorito de Hitler, pero muchos desconocen que el régimen nacionalsocialista quiso que Pau Casals tocara para él, invitándole en, al menos, dos ocasiones. La última, en 1943, durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, en la Francia ocupada por los nazis. El músico (nacido en la localidad tarraconense de Vendrell en 1876, y compositor considerado como uno de los mejores violonchelistas de todos los tiempos) estaba exiliado en el sur de Francia, en Prades, tras la Guerra Civil Española. Sabía que rechazar la solicitud de actuar para el dictador alemán podría acarrearle consecuencias. De esto trata "Música para Hitler", que podemos ver en la Sala Roja de los Teatros del Canal (c/ Céa Bermúdez, 1) hasta el domingo 20 de abril, de martes a sábado a las 20.00 y los domingos a las 18.30. Entrevistamos a Carlos Hipólito que protagoniza la obra dando vida a Casals junto a Kiti Mánver, Cristóbal Suárez y Marta Velilla. Conforman el elenco este drama escrito por Yolanda Serrano y dirigido y co-escrito por Juan Carlos Rubio. Plan Vive La Comunidad de Madrid construye 1 de cada 3 viviendas protegidas en España a través del Plan Vive. Concretamente el 36,3% de todas las que tienen esta calificación en España. Entrevistamos al consejero de Vivienda, Transportes e Infraestructuras, Jorge Rodrigo, para analizar los detalles de las medidas que impulsan estas construcciones. El Ejecutivo autonómico ha adjudicado 3.577 inmuebles y superará los 4.000 antes de que finalice el mes de abril, cuando se adjudicarán otros 600 hogares en San Sebastián de los Reyes, Tres Cantos y Valdebebas. Sección lingüística "Dicho Queda" Carlota Izquierdo Gil (Instagram: @cigservicioslinguisticos) nos explica las palabras parasintéticas.

Now that I have laid the groundwork for what I think everyone needs to know about war, I can digress and address current topics of interest, placing them in the framework of the Ancient Art of Modern Warfare. In this podcast I build on the topic of peace in the last episode to address current developments regarding Ukraine. Russia is the aggressor. Putin cannot be rewarded for his violations of international law, the laws and customs of war, both jus ad bellum and jus in bello, and threatening the peace and security of all of Europe. However, without a Western commitment to apply overwhelming force against Russian aggression, a cease fire is in order. The death and destruction of war without any serious prospects for victory violates Just War principles of proportionality and reasonable probability of success. Even Clausewitz would agree. As usual, the opinions in these podcasts are my own and do not necessarily represent the opinion of the Department of Defense, anyone else in the U.S. Government, or any other organization I am or ever have been associated with.

Can a young man win a wife through a singing competition?  He just might, if he's in Richard Wagner's romantic comedy (yes, you read that right, “Richard Wagner's romantic comedy,”) Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg.  Young Walter may not be trained in the masters' techniques, but ultimately his passion wins the hearts of the beautiful Eva, the singing masters, and the people of Nuremberg.  Join Pat and guest co-host Gerald Malone for an in-depth discussion of one of Wagner's most intriguing operas. Gerald Malone is the Opera Critic of ReactionLife, a UK-based online current affairs and cultural publication.

Melbourne Opera presents a very special opera at a very special location: Richard Wagner's Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg in the historic Royal Exhibition Center. We spoke to opera expert Hans Henkell about the production, the challenges and what makes Wagner's only comedy so appealing. - Melbourne Opera präsentiert eine ganz besondere Oper an einem ganz besonderen Ort: Richard Wagners Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg im historischen Royal Exhibition Center. Wir haben mit dem Opernkenner Hans Henkell über die Inszenierung gesprochen, über die Herausforderungen, die sie mit sich bringt und darüber, was den Reiz von Wagners einziger Komödie ausmacht.

Es riecht nach salzigem Wasser, nach Hafen und nach altem Holz. Aber auch nach frischem Gebäck und frisch gebrühtem Espresso. Die Kellner im Caffè Lavena haben alle Hände voll zu tun. Viele Touristen möchten unbedingt hier ihren Cappuccino trinken, wie so viele berühmte Personen vor ihnen: Arthur Rubinstein, Franz Liszt, und allen voran Richard Wagner. Unser ZOOM nimmt Sie mit nach Venedig - und begibt sich auf die Spuren von Richard Wagner.

Eigentlich sind die schweren Bariton-Partien von Richard Wagner seine Spezialität; als Telramund im Lohengrin oder als Kurwenal in Tristan und Isolde feierte Martin Gantner auf den grossen Bühnen der Welt Erfolge. Auch in Zürich ist er seit über 20 Jahren ein sehr gern gesehener Gast. Hier wird er nun erstmals als Graf Danilo in der Lustigen Witwe auftreten. Ob das Leichte auch für ihn zum Schwersten gehört und warum es Spass macht, auf der Bühne ein Bösewicht zu sein, darüber spricht Martin Gantner in unserem nächsten Podcast.

Sie hat eine Million Euro gesammelt, damit zum 150. Geburtstag der Festspiele im kommenden Jahr doch noch Richard Wagners populäre Werke "Tannhäuser" und "Lohengrin" aufgeführt werden können. Doch die finanzstarke Gesellschaft der Freunde von Bayreuth fühlt sich von Festspielchefin Katharina Wagner auf ruppige Art und Weise missverstanden.

"Hey- it sure is raining a lot, do you have a boat?" "No, but I *Noah* guy." That's right, on this week's episode of Data Over Dogma, we're going diluvian all up in here. It's the story of Noah and the great... vinyard? Here's the twist: It seems that the account of Noah we get in our version of Genesis may not be exactly what we were told it was! Then, call Richard Wagner, because we're talking about the power of a strong horns section. It's Joshua's time to shine as he leads the Israelites into battle against the great city of Jericho.

"Herta Müller should share her Nobel with the Securitate." This comment by a former officer in the Romanian secret police, or Securitate, was in reaction to hearing that Müller, a German writer originally from Romania, had won the 2009 Nobel Prize for Literature. Communist Romania's infamous secret police was indeed a protagonist in Müller's work, though an undesired and dreaded one: most of her writings are deeply and explicitly anchored in Ceaușescu's Romania and her own traumatic experiences with the Securitate. Müller's file traces her surveillance from 1983 until after she emigrated to West Germany in 1987. She has written extensively in reaction to reading her file, but primarily addresses its gaps, begging the question what information the file does in fact contain. The Secret Police Dossier of Herta Müller: A "File Story" of Cold War Surveillance (Camden House, 2023) is an in-depth investigation of Müller's file, and engages with other related files, including that of her then-husband, the writer Richard Wagner. Valentina Glajar treats the files as primary sources in order to re-create the story of Müller's surveillance by the Securitate. In such an intrusive culture of surveillance, surviving the system often meant a certain degree of entanglement: for victims, collaborators, and implicated subjects alike. Veiled in secrecy for decades, these compelling and complex documents shed light on a boundary between victims and perpetrators as porous as the Iron Curtain itself. Learn more about your ad choices.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for January 12, 2025 is: leitmotif • LYTE-moh-teef • noun A leitmotif is a dominant recurring theme—something (such as a melody, an idea, or a phrase) repeated many times throughout a book, story, opera, etc. // The overcoming of obstacles and a love of theater are the two leitmotifs of her autobiography. See the entry > Examples: “[F. Scott] Fitzgerald considered his year and a half spent on The Vegetable a complete waste, but I disagree, for he followed it with a new novel written with all the economy and tight structure of a successful play—The Great Gatsby. Both The Vegetable and Gatsby shared the theme of the American Dream (first as a spoof for a comedy, finally as the leitmotif of a lyric novel). I don't think there has ever been a more elusive, mysterious, intriguing character than Gatsby. He's pure fiction—and pure Fitzgerald: the hopeful, romantic outsider looking in.” — Charles Scribner III, Scribners: Five Generations in Publishing, 2023 Did you know? The English word leitmotif (or leitmotiv, as it is also spelled) comes from the German Leitmotiv, meaning “leading motive,” and is formed from the verb leiten (“to lead”) and the noun Motiv (“motive”). In its original sense, the word applies to opera music; it was first used by writers interpreting the works of composer Richard Wagner, who was famous for associating a melody with a character or important dramatic element. Leitmotif is still commonly used with reference to music and musical drama but it is now also used more broadly to refer to any recurring theme in the arts—“The Imperial March,” heard in the Star Wars film franchise whenever Darth Vader appears on screen, for example—or in everyday life.

In this episode, JF and Phil examine the myth of the vampire through the lens of Robert Eggers' latest film, Nosferatu, a reimagining of F. W. Murnau's German Expressionist masterpiece. Topics covered include the nature of vampires, the symbolism of evil, the implicit theology of Eggers' film (compared with that of Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula), the need for shadow work, as well as the power of real introspection and self-sacrifice.

Virginie Girod raconte le destin tragique du roi fantasque Louis II de Bavière.Le 13 juin 1886, dans la soirée, deux corps sont retrouvés flottants dans le lac de Starnberg, non loin du château de Berg, en Bavière. Quelques heures plus tôt, le roi Louis II (1845-1886) avait disparu alors qu'il se promenait avec son psychiatre, le Dr von Gudden. L'identification des cadavres confirme qu'il s'agit bien des deux hommes. Mais qu'est-il arrivé ? S'agit-il d'un suicide ? D'une dispute qui aurait mal tourné ?Louis II de Bavière hérite de la couronne de Bavière en 1864, à la mort de son père Maximilien II. Bientôt, ce grand amateur de musique et de théâtre, fou de l'art et l'être de Richard Wagner, est confronté à la guerre, qu'il tient en horreur. Mais peu enclin à gouverner, Louis II préfère faire construire de somptueux châteaux, multipliant les dépenses et suscitant la colère du peuple et de ses ministres. Quelques jours avant sa mort, il est déclaré inapte à gouverner pour cause de maladie mentale et interné dans une aile de son château de Berg.

The Magician card likely graces more front covers of books on the tarot than any of the other major arcana. In many ways, it symbolizes the tarot itself, or the individual who has mastered the art of manipulating the cards to divine their meanings. Yet, the Magician is a profoundly ambiguous figure. From one perspective, he is the Magus, piercing through the illusions of ceaseless becoming to glimpse the hidden depths of reality. From another, he is all surface without depth, a carnival huckster ready to empty your coin purse while you're transfixed by his crystal ball. In this episode, JF and Phil continue their on-again, off-again journey through the major trumps with a discussion of the card that—deservedly or not—proudly calls itself Number One.
