Yesterday was World AIDS Day and many of the people I admire and follow on various social media platforms made beautiful and heartfelt posts in commemoration of this day and all the many souls that have been lost over the decades to this hideous disease. I want to weigh in today with my own tribute: to the exceptional American baritone John Reardon, who died of this disease in 1988 at the age of 58. This is an expanded version of a bonus episode I published more than four years ago which constituted a deep exploration of his recorded legacy, in both live or studio recordings, of musical, opera (especially contemporary works), and art song. You'll hear guest contributions from the two Judys, (Raskin and Blegen; sorry, no Garland today), as well as Jo Sullivan, Beverly Wolff, Anja Silja, Evelyn Lear, and James McCracken, conducted by Leonard Bernstein, Thomas Beecham, Sarah Caldwell, Erich Leinsdorf, Frederic Waldman, Lehman Engel, Jorge Mester, as well as that great stage director Bliss Hebert doing a guest turn tickling the ivories in two song cycles. If you listen extra closely, you may even hear a line or two from Beverly Sills, Robert Merrill, Cesare Siepi, and Jussi Björling! The episode also includes a birthday tribute to Maria Callas and, as a memorial to all who have succumbed to AIDS, “When Angels Cry,” a song by Janis Ian. 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.

It is hard to believe that it's already been 13 years since the death of Shirley Verrett on November 5, 2010. It has also already been four years since I did a pair of episodes on this extraordinary and beloved artist, and this anniversary gives me the perfect excuse to revisit the work of this mezzo-soprano turned soprano who more than any other singer in my experiences (even soon-to-be birthday girl Maria Callas) was capable of singing nearly anything. This type of singer is sometimes referred to as a soprano sfogato (or a falcon, after the 19th century French mezzo-cum-soprano Cornélie Falcon. Since Verrett, like Falcon, sang both mezzo and soprano, I instead coin the term falcon sfogatissima to describe her vocal magic. This episode is chock full of examples of Verrett's impassioned yet technically-grounded vocalism, from art songs by Brahms and Pasatieri to operatic roles by Handel, Gluck, Cherubini, Bellini, Puccini, and Verdi (including both soprano and mezzo roles in Aida and the Messa da Requiem and soprano roles in Ballo in Maschera, Macbeth, Don Carlo, and Otello). I close the episodes with Verrett's astonishing but limited forays into the German operatic repertoire. Her collaborators on this episode include conductors Seiji Ozawa, Claudio Abbado, Bernard Haitink, Zubin Mehta, Eve Queler, Georges Prêtre, Sarah Caldwell, and the late Kenneth Montgomery; and fellow operatic greats Sherrill Milnes, Luciano Pavarotti, James McCracken, Robert Massard (last week's featured artist), and her frenemy the late Grace Bumbry. 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.

In this episode we had the amazing opportunity to talk with Sarah Caldwell.Sarah is a psychotherapist with an online practice based out of Park City, Utah. Sarah helps motivated individuals find relief from anxiety, relationship issues and career stress through individual therapy. Sarah shares with us the importance of living into your values when making decisions, overcoming anxiety and stepping into courage. She talks about how easily we can be lead astray because we are community oriented humans. It is important for us to recognize and be present so that we can define what are values are in the moment and thus better understand what is driving us to do what we do and react how we react. It is important to understand the value that we are holding onto in different situations so that you can respond instead of react. Knowing your values makes it easier to not only  move into growth and courage, but these values keep you on track and driven to push through the discomfort.Sarah also mentions the benefit of starting small with growth or courageous steps. She says that it is also important to look back at your own life and see if there are similar moments from your past that can help you stay motivated as you re-witness your past successes. Having people to celebrate and support you is incredibly valuable too. Sarah shares that there is a really good power pose that can help with feeling more powerful and confident  (sometimes referred to as the superhero pose) where feet are hips width and arms are on the hips, standing tall and the chin is lifted. This pose tells your mind that you are ready for anything. It also lowers cortisol and gently raises testosterone in the body. Magic. We also talk about the fact that it takes courage to reach out for help and be vulnerable that space. This is a beautiful way to demonstrate self love. You are prioritizing your mental health which is fundamental to being.

Dear ones, I present to you today the extraordinarily versatile bass-baritone and my fellow native Milwaukeean Donald Gramm (1927-1983), one of the central house singers at both the Metropolitan Opera and New York City Opera from the 1960s through his premature death at the age of 56. Gifted with an intrinsically beautiful voice, an impeccable technique and an expansive range, he also was a crackerjack musician whose repertoire easily encompassed musical styles from florid Baroque music through the thorniest contemporary idioms. He is probably best celebrated these days for his commitment to American art, and this episode features him singing songs by Ned Rorem, John Duke, Richard Cummings, Douglas Moore, and Paul Bowles, with a particular emphasis on texts by Walt Whitman. What is perhaps less well-remembered today is how versatile an opera singer he was, singing roles from Osmin to Scarpia, with a strong emphasis on both bel canto and buffo roles by Rossini and Donizetti. The episode also explores his collaborations with Igor Stravinsky, Glenn Gould, and, perhaps most significantly, Sarah Caldwell, another important musical figure from that era who is strongly deserving of reappraisal. 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.

Sarah's love of sewing began when she was a young girl growing up in New Zealand. Her first creation? A bean bag frog. As she grew older, her passion for sewing grew and Sarah eventually studied fashion, design, and garment construction.  Her talent led her to BERNINA. She shares what it's like to work for a family-owned company, how everyone looks out for each other, and how she can go into any BERNINA store anywhere in the world and be welcomed like family. “It really is quite unique.”  (1:57-10:29)Sarah also talks about her biological family, and about growing up with a mother who struggled with mental health issues. She shares how sewing helped her deal with some of those issues, including the death of her mother. She's glad that more people are talking freely about mental health. For her, and for many others, sewing and social media are providing creative and emotional outlets and are helping to build a strong sense of community. She shares many fascinating stories about her travels and the people she's met along the way. One of her favorite experiences was going to the Kimono Museum in Japan and having them dress her as a geisha; she brings the experience to life in exquisite detail. (11:49 -19:43)Sarah learns new things everywhere she goes and believes that sharing her knowledge with young sewists and designers is her way of giving back to the community. One of the ways she does it is by being involved with cosplays (costumed role-playing venues), including Comic-Con events. She has several different costumes she loves to wear, with Princess Leia being her most recent. It's also one of her favorite creations. But cosplays aren't the only thing Sarah's created costumes for. She was part of the team that created costumes for Lord of the Rings when they were in New Zealand filming. As she shares the fascinating details of how it came about and the experience itself, she says that creating the quilt for Frodo's bed was a labor of love. “Anyone out there who's sewn with gold thread knows how challenging it is.” (20:14 -32:01)Everything Sarah Caldwell does is a labor of love, whether it's sewing, baking, doing Zumba or singing in her band.  At times, she combines her sewing and singing skills in her classes. You won't want to miss the entertaining podcast about a woman who dared to dream.Be sure to follow Sarah on Instagram where you can get a first-hand look at some of her wild and wonderful creations.

In this special episode, we are joined by licensed therapists Kathleen Callahan, MSW & LCSW and personal therapist to both Erik and Marc, and Sarah Caldwell, MSW & LCSW and an earlier guest on From Survivor to Thriver podcast. They help our audience recognize challenging spots we may find ourselves in, when we or those around us may be struggling, the global shared trauma we all have experienced due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the vast array of resources available so we can help both ourselves and each other. With more than 50 million people in the United States and one billion people around the world living with a mental health disorder, it's no longer enough to say that mental health is just an issue. Rather, now is the time to take real action! Only by helping others to spot the signs and symptoms both inside of themselves and externally in others and by directing our communities to the vast array of resources available to them are we truly addressing the growing mental health crisis in a meaningful way. You can reach out to Kathleen at callahancounseling@gmail.com and to Sarah at rebelmountaintherapy.com.

Sarah, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and mental health therapist, opens up about her own trauma and grief, which was tied to her dad having taken his life when she was 10 months old. In her late 20's, she realized that it was time to do the work to address her depressive tendencies and recognized that “it's so important, as a therapist, to have a therapist.” Today, Sarah walks the walk in her own life by practicing fierce self-compassion, doing her own therapy and cultivating balance. By opening her own private practice, Rebel Mountain Therapy, she now eagerly takes the journey of healing with each of her clients while sharing the important message that it's never too early or too late to seek help.

Vi möter en spjutspets, Victoria Bond, och en gränsgångare, Alex Shapiro. Victoria Bond föddes i Los Angeles och växte upp i New York och i Hollywood i en gediget kulturell familj. Modern var konsertpianist och studerade för bland annat Bela Bartók. Hennes far var sångare och läkare. Victoria Bond prövade på teater, målning och skulptur, men valde musiken och började studera komposition. Victoria Bond funderade på att bli dirigent. Hon mötte dirigenten Leonard Slatkin, äldre bror till en av henne klasskamrater, och fick goda råd av honom. Av hundratals sökande till dirigentlinjen vid Juilliard School of Music var Victoria Bond en av de sju som kom in och hon blev första kvinna någonsin som där tog examen i dirigering vid slutet av 1970-talet. När Victoria Bond började fanns det endast två andra kvinnor i USA som dirigerade orkestrar: Sarah Caldwell hos Boston operakompani och Eve Queler som hade startat sin egen operaorkester, The Opera Orchestra of New York. Under dirigentutbildningarna hade Victoria Bond lärare som Herbert von Karajan och Pierre Boulez. Mest betydde de två svenska dirigenterna Sixten Ehrling och Herbert Blomstedt. Efter en dirigentkarriär i USA, Kina, Brasilien och på Irland, ägnar Victoria Bond nu mest kraft åt att komponera. Hon komponerade bl a en opera om pianisten och tonsättaren Clara Schumann. Victoria Bonds opera Mrs President hade premiär i oktober 2012, endast en månad innan nästa presidentval i USA, det 57e, då Barack Obama blev omvald. Mrs President handlar om den första kvinnliga presidentkandidaten i USA, Victoria Woodhull, som även var första kvinna i USAs aktiebörs och den första kvinna i USA som ägde en tidning. Woodhull ställde upp i presidentvalet 1872. Som vice presidentkandidat valde hon den afroamerikanske författaren och talaren Frederick Douglass, som hade flytt från sin slavägare vid 43 års ålder. Han stödde suffragetternas kvinnokamp och abolitionisternas kamp mot slaveriet. Deras parti hette Equal Rights Party, men kallades också People's Party, the Cosmo-Political Party och the National Radical Reformers. Men Victoria Woodhull motarbetades starkt: Hon kallades Mrs Satan. Regeringen vägrade trycka hennes namn på röstsedlarna. Man ansåg att hon var ett år för ung. (Hon var 34.) Hon var kvinna. Hon sattes i fängelse. Först i augusti 1920 fick kvinnor rösträtt i USA. Ur librettot av Hillary Bell: Vi betalar skatt, vi lyder samma lagar, vi föder nya medborgare och vi lämnar bort dem till krig. Ändå är vi fattiga, maktlösa, mäns egendom. Var inte rädd, jag vill inte anarki, jag vill jämlikhet. Victoria for President! Victoria Bonds hemsida: http://www.victoriabond.com/ Mrs Presidents hemsida: http://www.MrsPresidentTheOpera.com/ Tonsättaren och filmmusikkomponisten Alex Shapiro växte upp på Manhattan på 1970-talet, och pendlar nu mellan intensiva New York och rofyllda San Juan Island, i nordvästra USA. Som tonåring rörde Alex Shapiro sig fritt i New Yorks mångfaldiga musikliv: punk, opera, jazz, klassiskt och nutida. Hon studerade bl a vid Manhattan School of Music. Senare fick hon ett lågbudgetjobb som filmmusikkompositör i Los Angeles och arbetade där i 15 år med att skriva musik till film och TV. Alex Shapiro var dock olycklig och saknade konsertlivet, då de båda musikvärldarna fungerade helt åtskiljda. Men när hon skrivit kammarmusik för en orkester på tio personer till ännu en lågbudgetfilm förstod hon hur mycket hon saknat att tonsätta konsertmusik. Hon bestämde sig för att byta karriär. -De kommersiella åren har stärkt min känsla för rytm och groove. Även min formkänsla och musikens rörelse har påverkats, fast numera använder jag andra harmonier, förklarar Alex Shapiro. Efter att ha varit van att spela på biopublikens känslor använder jag numera de emotionella verktygen friare i min konsertmusik. Människorna i de olika lyssnargrupperna är ju inte så olika varandra. Universiteten i USA söker ständigt ny repertoar till sina musikgrupper. Ofta är det orkestrar och ensembler vid olika universitet som beställer musik av Alex Shapiro. Att vara kvinna inom musikvärlden har aldrig medfört några problem för Alex Shapiro, som tackar alla tonsättande förmödrar för det. Hon är dock medveten om att diskriminering pågår. -Det är bäst att försöka hålla tyst om sådant, säger hon. Det skapar bara dåliga vibrationer och stöter bort människor. Vad du kan göra är att visa upp dina bästa verk och till unga tonsättare säger jag: Det finns inget glastak, himlen är gränsen! Alex Shapiro har ett radikalt förslag till föreningen Kvast, Kvinnlig anhopning av svenska tonsättare, som arbetar för att symfoniorkestrarna i Sveriges skall välja fler verk av kvinnor. -Jag tror inte det hjälper så värst mycket att prata med dem som administrerar orkestrarna. Vi glömmer så lätt att den nutida musikvärlden är liten och att de som finns utanför den behöver utbildas och informeras om hur läget är. Jag föreslår därför att ni söker upp skattebetalande kvinnor i Sverige: advokater, plåtslagare och andra, och ber dem reagera på att deras skattepengar mest går till manliga tonsättares verk. Jag tror att skattebetalarnas ord väger tyngre än tonsättarnas, säger Alex Shapiro. Alex Shapiros hemsida: http://www.alexshapiro.org/ Musiklista: Immersion: Surface, sats 2.

Note in the Pocket (0:00:00) Do you remember when you were a kid and clothing style was more important than anything? For children that are homeless or living in poverty, style is not an option but a luxury they can't afford. What you have is what you'll wear. But not having appropriate clothes for school can do more than affect your perceived “coolness” –it can even affect your learning. Luckily, there are organizations working to make sure these children have clothes so they can have an equal chance at succeeding in school as their peers. Today we are joined by Sarah Caldwell, development director for the nonprofit Note in the Pocket, here with us to talk about how they are helping children in their community have proper clothes for school.   Zen Your Zoom Meetings (0:18:26) At one point, working from home seemed like a luxury that only a select handful of people could enjoy. Recently, advances in technology have made this luxury a reality for a large percentage of America's working population. However, negotiating a working from home arrangement often includes agreeing to work meetings via video streaming platforms. But for the introverted or camera-shy employee, this can be a nightmare scenario. Here to discuss with us how to lower the pressure and stress induced by video work meetings is professor and chair of the Counseling and Higher Education department at Northern Illinois University, Dr. Suzanne Degges-White.   Stargazing and Astronomy (0:34:29) From Galileo's improvements on the telescope to the moon landing, mankind has been reaching for the stars for millennia. Sailors have used the stars to navigate the seas while artists have turned to the night sky for inspiration. Today, we still look up from our homes in awe of the universe. But, many of us can only point out the big dipper while others can't see anything due to light pollution. So, what can we do to improve our stargazing experiences? Dr. Laura Danly joins us today with some tips on stargazing as well as some insights into the field of astronomy. Dr. Danly is the curator of the world-renowned Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles, California. She conducted research with the Hubble Telescope at NASA for 10 years and has served on an advisory board to the White House.   Anti-Racism (0:52:42) The deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, among other Black Americans, have broken our hearts and sparked protests across the nation. And when things like this happen and social media is flooded with posts, everything can start to feel overwhelming. But overwhelmed doesn't have to equalinaction. So, what steps can we take to begin creating a brighter future for everyone? Here to share her thoughts with us is Beverly Tatum, author, clinical psychologist and expert on race relations.   Empowering People at Work (1:13:04) So many people are going through the most difficult time with work they've ever had right now. The market is looking pretty bleak and everyone is looking for solutions to improve their own lives. With everything going on around us, maybe you could be part of the solution. But how? Empower Work is an organization with the aim to help people struggling with work-related difficulties. Jaime-Alexis Fowler is the founder of this organization. We've invited her onto the show to help us learn more about what this organization does and how people can get involved with it.   Choosing the Right Sports for Your Kids (1:26:00) For many kids, sports are their world. They spend the afternoons practicing, they make friends on their teams, and they learn valuable life lessons through it all. But for those parents whose kids are not involved in sports, or whose kids are struggling with the sport they're in, how can they know how to best help their kids? How can they know which sport is best for their kids? Today, we've invited Lisa Cohn, award-winning writer on sports parenting and host of Ultimate Sports Parenting Radio, to help us know how to choose the right sports for our kids.

Sarah Caldwell talks about her charity, Suzanne Degges-White gives Zoom meetings advice, Laura Danly teaches how to stargaze, Beverly Tatum explains how to be anti-racist, Jaime-Alexis Fowler talks about empowering others at work, Lisa Cohn discusses choosing sports for kids.

Sarah Caldwell, who listens to this program on WDRT, asked Laura to talk about a fascinating bird, the Brown-headed Cowbird .

This episode focuses on opera producer Sarah Caldwell, a conductor, impresario and stage director from Arkansas. The book is called Challenges: A Memoir of My Life in Opera, and by Caldwell, with contributions by Rebecca Matlock. The book tells how Caldwell worked to make opera performances come alive in ways no one had tried before. She was known to add live animals and water features to performances. She also traveled to the country of the opera's origin to conduct research and gather the sights and sounds of the area to make her performances as true to life as possible for audiences. Along the way, she met dignitaries and even had a reporter from Time magazine tag along on one of these research excursions. In addition, the Library of Congress assisted her during research of ancient China. She even befriended Imelda Marcos along the way and was burned in effigy alongside her. So, yeah. If you haven't gathered already, Sarah Caldwell was a strong-willed, opinionated and interesting lady. We cover some things about her work and her life in this week's episode.

This week I am bringing you an interview with my friend Sarah. In this episode we talk all things relationships, from knowing oneself before dating, healthy boundaries (along with what boundaries are and steps on how to set one), open and safe communication, and healthy conflict (Because all relationships have conflict, so how can we deal with it in a healthy manner).A little about Sarah: Sarah Caldwell is a mental health therapist specializing in sex & intimacy, healthy relationships and maternal mental health.

I femte och sista programmet möter vi en spjuspets, Victoria Bond, och en gränsgångare, Alex Shapiro. Victoria Bond föddes i Los Angeles och växte upp i New York och i Hollywood i en gediget kulturell familj. Modern var konsertpianist och studerade för bland annat Bela Bartók. Hennes far var sångare och läkare. Victoria Bond prövade på teater, målning och skulptur, men valde musiken och började studera komposition. Victoria Bond funderade på att bli dirigent. Hon mötte dirigenten Leonard Slatkin, äldre bror till en av henne klasskamrater, och fick goda råd av honom. Av hundratals sökande till dirigentlinjen vid Juilliard School of Music var Victoria Bond en av de sju som kom in och hon blev första kvinna någonsin som där tog examen i dirigering vid slutet av 1970-talet. När Victoria Bond började fanns det endast två andra kvinnor i USA som dirigerade orkestrar: Sarah Caldwell hos Boston operakompani och Eve Queler som hade startat sin egen operaorkester, The Opera Orchestra of New York. Under dirigentutbildningarna hade Victoria Bond lärare som Herbert von Karajan och Pierre Boulez. Mest betydde de två svenska dirigenterna Sixten Ehrling och Herbert Blomstedt. Efter en dirigentkarriär i USA, Kina, Brasilien och på Irland, ägnar Victoria Bond nu mest kraft åt att komponera. Just nu skriver hon en opera om pianisten och tonsättaren Clara Schumann. Victoria Bonds opera Mrs President har premiär i oktober 2012, endast en månad innan nästa presidentval i USA, det 57e, då Barack Obama skall försöka bli omvald. Mrs President handlar om den första kvinnliga presidentkandidaten i USA, Victoria Woodhull, som även var första kvinna i USA’s aktiebörs och den första kvinna i USA som ägde en tidning. Woodhull ställde upp i presidentvalet 1872. Som vice presidentkandidat valde hon den afroamerikanske författaren och talaren Frederick Douglass, som hade flytt från sin slavägare vid 43 års ålder. Han stödde suffragetternas kvinnokamp och abolitionisternas kamp mot slaveriet. Deras parti hette Equal Rights Party, men kallades också People's Party, the Cosmo-Political Party och the National Radical Reformers. Men Victoria Woodhull motarbetades starkt: Hon kallades Mrs Satan. Regeringen vägrade trycka hennes namn på röstsedlarna. Man ansåg att hon var ett år för ung. (Hon var 34.) Hon var kvinna. Hon sattes i fängelse. Först i augusti 1920 fick kvinnor rösträtt i USA. Ur librettot av Hillary Bell: ”Vi betalar skatt, vi lyder samma lagar, vi föder nya medborgare och vi lämnar bort dem till krig. Ändå är vi fattiga, maktlösa, mäns egendom. Var inte rädd, jag vill inte anarki, jag vill jämlikhet.
