Das Cellospielen war ihr in die Wiege gelegt. Und das nicht nur, weil der Cellokasten beim Fangenspielen so ein gutes Versteck ist. Schon ihr Vater hat im berühmtem Hagen-Quartett das Cello gestrichen. Mittlerweile ist Julia Hagen (*1995) zum Cello-Shootingstar avanciert und tritt selbst mit dem Quartett des Papas auf. Julia Hagen ist fest davon überzeugt, dass man den Inhalt eines Liedes auch dann verstehen kann, wenn die Melodie nur ausdrucksstark genug von einem Cello gespielt wird. Lieder von Brahms und Schubert hat sie mit in die Sendung gebracht, aber auch Volksmusik aus ihrer österreichischen Heimat und Songs von den Beatles (natürlich gespielt von einem Cello-Ensemble).

Das 1823 erfundene Instrument "Arpeggione"wäre wahrscheinlich längst vergessen, hätte nicht Franz Schubert eine Sonate dafür komponiert. BR-KLASSIK hat mit dem Bratscher Antoine Tamestit über das Werk gesprochen.
Vandaag een aflevering in de serie "In Stukken". Het Strijkkwintet van Franz Schubert (https://www.npoklassiek.nl/componisten/12cc9a33-5e9a-4bd1-9a47-ba0c5acba381/schubert-franz) wordt in stukken geknipt. Aan de hand van de fragmenten in de mooiste opnames wordt het stuk onder de loep genomen. Panelleden: cellist Quirine Viersen en altviolist Ward Koopmans.
Wenn jemand von Klassik in der Krise redet, kann er damit jedenfalls eines nicht meinen: dass es einen Mangel an großartigen jungen Streichquartett-Ensembles gäbe. Im Gegenteil. Eines der meistbeachteten ist seit ein paar Jahren das Leonkoro Quartet. Jetzt ist sein mit Spannung erwartetes zweites Album erschienen, mit lauter Wiener Musik. Damit sind aber keineswegs Mozart, Beethoven oder Schubert gemeint, sondern Webern, Berg und Schulhoff. SWR Kultur-Rezensent Albrecht Selge mit einer Empfehlung.

Nesta segunda parte do podcast “A Beleza das Pequenas Coisas”, a escritora Lídia Jorge revela qual o seu caminho seguinte, o que lhe falta dizer por escrito e lê um excerto de um texto do escritor e amigo João de Melo para refletir sobre os enganos da fugacidade da fama. Apesar de se revelar grata pelos tantos prémios, afirma que os títulos só lhe tocam a sombra, porque o seu lugar e ofício é outro. A escritora chega mesmo a revelar ter sido convidada para se candidatar à Presidência da República, mas que não hesitou em recusar. E recorda o que mais a espantou nos ecos ao seu discurso do 10 de Junho. Lídia lembra ainda a sua infância em Boliqueime, no Algarve, quando era uma contadora de histórias a transformar os finais fatalistas dos livros em caminhos felizes. E conta o momento em que decidiu batizar todos os animais da quinta ou a altura em que se convenceu que Fernando Pessoa escrevera um poema dedicado a si, por incluir o seu nome. Perto do final, partilha algumas das músicas que a acompanham, lê um excerto do seu livro “Misericórdia” e deixa a sugestão de um filme. Para depois referir em que ponto está o seu futuro romance.

Dame Imogen Cooper is one of Britain's most esteemed concert pianists. Having played since the age of five, she was mentored by the great Austrian born pianist Alfred Brendel before making her name internationally with interpretations of works by Schumann, Schubert and Mozart. She is renowned as a reflective, poetic sensitive performer in the concert hall and recording studio. She was made a CBE in 2007, became the first pianist to be awarded the Queen's Medal for Music in 2020 and, the following year, became Dame Imogen. She recently announced that, at the end of the year long international tour, she would be retiring from live performance in early 2027.Producer: Edwina PitmanArchive used: Face The Music, BBC2, 12 November 1975 Schubert, Allegretto in C minor D915 played by Imogen Cooper at the Wigmore Hall on 18 January 2026
Today on Ascend: The Great Books Podcast, Dr. Jason Baxter and Dcn. Harrison Garlick come together to introduce Dante's Purgatorio and Dr. Baxter's new translation!We are reading Dante's Purgatorio for Lent. Join us!Visit thegreatbookspodcast.com for our reading schedule!Check out our LIBRARY of written guides to the great books!DISCOUNT: Check out Dr. Jason Baxter's website and enter "Ascend" to receive **20%** off the Purgatorio audiobook read by Dr. Baxter!Check out Dr. Baxter's Substack article on his new translation.And thank you to the Center of Beauty and Culture at Benedictine College for promoting this reading of the Purgatorio!Dr. Baxter first describes the Center for Beauty and Culture at Benedictine College as a fellowship program (Angelico Fellows) that immerses students in beauty across the arts, music, literature, and theology—through concerts, museums, and pilgrimages—to foster interiority and the conviction that “beauty can save the world.”The conversation then contrasts Purgatorio with the Inferno: while the latter is dark, lurid, and focused on judgment, Purgatorio is a place of hope, mercy, transformation, and “eternal New Year's resolutions,” where repentant souls engage in spiritual exercises to purify their tarnished mirrors, learn authentic love and prayer, and prepare for Paradise. Baxter likens the shift to moving from heavy metal to Schubert, emphasizing greenness, brightness, and unexpected mercy.Baxter explains that his translation began as a personal quest for mastery—going word-by-word to internalize Dante like memorizing a piano piece—but evolved into a philosophy capturing Dante's “fugue” of style: ascending, prolix syntax with lofty classical allusions layered over humble, earthy words that reflect Franciscan humility and incarnational Christian poetics. Examples include goats ruminating on the “foco d'amore” (fire of love) amid elevated star imagery, or Statius calling Virgil's Aeneid “una mamma” (translated “mommy”).He describes Purgatorio as spiritual surgery—painfully removing the soul's “carcinogenic” elements through grace-filled cooperation—and a map for configuring to Christ beyond mere sin avoidance. Baxter advises first-time readers to pause at puzzling images or word choices, ask “why would Dante do that here?,” trust their instincts, and consider his audiobook for the text's soundscape, while Deacon Garlick stresses the canticle's role as a spiritual guide that mirrors one's own maturation toward God.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Ascend and Dante's Purgatorio03:43 The Center for Beauty and Culture05:40 Understanding Dante's Purgatorio07:54 The Nature of Purgatorio14:54 Dante the Pilgrim vs. Dante the Poet19:32 The Spirituality of Translation20:14 The Philosophy of Translation30:02 Dante's Christian Poetics34:22 Exploring Dante's Poetic Style36:51 Juxtaposition in Dante's Imagery41:42 The Concept of Spiritual Surgery44:49 The Journey of Holiness48:13 The Role of...

Spätwerk mit 31 Jahren: Wenige Monate vor seinem Tod komponierte Franz Schubert eines seiner bedeutendsten Kammermusikwerke, sein Streichquintett in C-Dur. Obwohl Schubert damals schon sehr krank war, dazu arm und unbekannt, schuf er ein Werk von entrückter Klangschönheit. Schubert war damals noch immer tief betroffen vom Tod seines Vorbilds Beethoven. Und doch ging er in seinem Streichquintett weit über die Musik seines Meisters hinaus: Innerhalb der sinfonischen Form konnte er die Melodien so weit aufspannen, dass man beim Hören jedes Zeitgefühl verlieren kann. Jenny Berg diskutiert fünf Aufnahmen dieses Meisterwerks, gemeinsam mit der Musikjournalistin Julia Kaiser und dem Geiger Markus Fleck.

To kick off Black History Month 2026 (which, contrary to the current US administration, is still a thing, and not just on Countermelody, either!), I present to you another Zwischenfach singer, the (mezzo-)soprano Inez Matthews. She was born in Ossining, NY on 23 August 1917 and died in the Bronx on 28 March 2004. She is probably most famous for singing the role of Serena on the legendary 1951 (nearly) complete recording of Porgy and Bess (as well as lending her voice to the 1959 Otto Preminger film) which was conducted by Lehman Engel and starred icons Lawrence Winters and Camilla Williams. She also created the role of Irina in Kurt Weill's Lost in the Stars (opposite Todd Duncan, who created the role of Porgy in 1935). She also sang in the 1952 revival of Virgil Thomson and Gertrude Stein's Four Saints in Three Acts, alongside her brother Edward, who created the role of Saint Ignatius in the work's 1934 premiere. In spite of these impressive credentials, Inez Matthews today is not nearly as well-remembered as, say, either Winters or Williams. In addition to these accomplishments, Matthews also recorded in 1954 Schubert's two major song cycles Schöne Müllerin and Winterreise as well as the posthumous Schwanengesang collection. That as early the mid-1950s Inez Matthews was the first Black artist (and only the second woman after Lotte Lehmann) to record those Schubert cycles, is extroardinary; that her performances are so exceptionally good, lends these recordings more than mere historical value. However, until the song cycles were recently reissued by Parnassus Records as part of their “Black Swans” series, these remained virtually inaccessible to listeners. Today's episode includes selections from almost all the above-mentioned recordings, as well as an exceptional 1953 recording of spirituals accompanied by Jonathan Brice, brother of the esteemed contralto Carol Brice. And let us also tip our hats to Herr Schubert, who just celebrated his 229th birthday! 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.

Er zeigt von Anfang an, dass er nicht nur Sales, aber auch Menschen versteht. Sein erster Sales-Funnel war ein Parkplatz: Zettel mit Nummer ans Auto, warten. 99 % Rückrufquote – weil Deutsche bei ihrem Auto sofort auf Alarmmodus schalten. Christopher zeigte seine Sales-Power auch als Teilzeitkraft bei Zara. Er ist einer der wenigen, die es vom Verkauf auf der Fläche ins höhere Management geschafft haben. Seine Geschichte über den Weg nach oben hat einen Film verdient! Aber erst mal gibt's sie hier im Podcast-Format. Viel Spaß, Marven & Moritz
The Unfinished Symphony #RTTBROS #Nightlight"Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ." — Philippians 1:6You know, I came across a story the other day that just wouldn't leave me alone. It's about Franz Schubert, one of the greatest composers who ever lived. In 1822, Schubert started working on a symphony and completed two magnificent movements. But then he just stopped. He never finished it. For years, music scholars debated why. Some said he got distracted by other projects. Others thought he lost inspiration. But here's the beautiful part, the part that got me thinking: that "unfinished" symphony wasn't really unfinished at all. Those two movements were so complete, so perfect, so breathtakingly beautiful that they stand as one of the most beloved pieces of classical music ever written.And isn't that just like us? We look at our lives, all the rough edges and unfinished places, and we think, "Lord, I'm not done yet. I'm still a mess." And you know what? You're absolutely right. But here's the thing, God isn't finished with you either.Paul writes to the Philippians with such confidence: "Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ." God is the one who began the work, and God is the one who will complete it.We're all walking around like Schubert's unfinished symphony. We've got movements that are complete and beautiful, and we've got sections that are still being written. But God doesn't see a mistake or a failure. He sees a masterpiece in progress.I'm too soon old and too late smart about this, but I've learned that God isn't in a hurry with us. He's patient. He's thorough. He's committed to the work He started in you the day you came to Him.Maybe you're feeling incomplete today. Friend, don't lose heart. God's not done composing your symphony. The Master Composer is still at work, and what He's creating in you is going to be beautiful.Let's pray: Father, thank You that You don't give up on us. Thank You that You're still working, still creating something beautiful out of our lives. Help us trust Your timing and Your process.

In this episode of One Symphony, conductor Devin Patrick Hughes sits down with acclaimed film and television composer Lesley Barber for a wide-ranging, behind-the-scenes conversation about writing music that reveals what characters can't say out loud. Lesley shares how improvising and composing before formal training shaped her voice, how pop, R&B, and composers like Schubert, Bach, and Chopin influenced her musical language, and why her chamber-score approach to Maurice Sendak's Little Bear became so enduring that listeners now pass it down to the next generation. The conversation then dives deep into Manchester by the Sea—from the time-crunch sprint to Sundance, to recording her daughter's a cappella vocals in a dorm room for intimate “in-your-head” sound, then expanding into a large hall for an almost omniscient sense of space. Along the way, Lesley unpacks her fascination with fate, time, and music that can feel “mathematical” yet emotionally unavoidable, and why the most powerful film music often lives in the story's absences—making the invisible audible. Devin and Lesley also explore international orchestras, building creative teams across time zones, writing the Late Nighttheme under extreme deadline pressure, and what the future could look like for film music in the concert hall.

I'm sure many of you balked when you saw the title of this episode: “But Daniel: Schubert wrote no orchestral songs!” And of course you would be correct. And yet, what about when other composers orchestrate his songs? Therein lies the content of today's episode. Historical evidence from some of Schubert's contemporaries and closest associates indicate that he was strict in both tempo and affect in the performance of his Lieder. And yet, in the later 19th century (and beyond) many of his songs were orchestrated by such masters of orchestral color as Reger, Berlioz, Brahms, Liszt, Weingartner, and Mottl. In the twentieth century, individual songs have been orchestrated by such unexpected composers as Britten and Webern. In the late 1970s, Hermann Prey and conductor Gary Bertini made two LPs of the first recordings of these orchestrations and they make for fascinating listening, as these songs are transformed from the distinct genre of Klavierlieder to that of Orchesterlieder. These two records are supplemented by excerpts of a recording of a live performance by Hermann Prey of the world premiere of an orchestrated version of Winterreise by Japanese composer Yukikazu Suzuki. Even less than a year before his death, Prey's connection to the music of Schubert remains palpable, and the slight vocal vulnerabilities from that performance serve only to intensify and deepen Prey's interpretation. 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.

In this episode of The Piano Pod, host Yukimi Song sits down with concert pianist and recording artist Ammiel Bushakevitz for a wide-ranging conversation on Franz Schubert, the German Lied tradition, and what makes 19th-century music speak powerfully to 21st-century audiences.Ammiel shares insights from his major long-term projects, including Schubert 200 — a multi-album Lied collaboration building toward Schubert's bicentennial in 2028 — and his ongoing recording of Schubert's complete solo piano works. We explore intimacy versus scale, collaboration between singer and pianist, audience-building for a new generation, and why Schubert's music remains profoundly human and relevant today.

Eclesiastés 6:9“Más vale lo que ven los ojos que un deseo que pasa. También esto es vanidad y aflicción de espíritu”.Los científicos siempre han sabido que algunos equinodermos, parientes de la estrella de mar, son sensibles a la luz. Se les puede ver evitando predadores y metiéndose rápidamente en hendiduras en busca de protección. Sin embargo, no fue sino hasta recientemente que los científicos descubrieron que los equinodermos en realidad podían ver.Al examinar los científicos los esqueletos transparentes de calcita de los equinodermos, no encontraron ninguna señal de ojos o de estructuras sensibles a la luz. Sin embargo, sí encontraron lo que llamaron, “una increíble variedad de estructuras esféricas”. Sospechando que estas pequeñas estructuras podrían ser lentes, ya que sólo los equinodermos que responden a la luz las tienen, investigaron más a fondo. No estuvieron preparados para lo que encontraron. Descubrieron que cada una de esta multitud de estructuras esféricas era un micro lente que enfoca la luz a una diminuta área de 3 micrómetros de ancho. ¡Esto es alrededor del tamaño de las partículas de polvo que usted puede ver a través de un microscopio! Debido a la manera en que la calcita enfoca la luz, cada lente debe ser compuesto, realmente siendo compuesto por dos lentes. La imagen resultante se proyecta a las fibras nerviosas que entran hacia bultos nerviosos más grandes. Los científicos señalaron que es sólo recientemente que hemos aprendido a hacer tales micro lentes.Tal precisión no es ningún accidente. Pero, cuando los hombres no quieren ver a Dios, verán solo lo creado, inclusive cuando tiene que ver con los orígenes de tales estructuras precisas y complejas.Oración: Padre, me regocijo de las maravillas que Tú has hecho. Ayúdame a nunca perderlos de vista ni la salvación en Cristo Jesús. Amén.Ref: Science News, C.

Today on Ascend: The Great Books Podcast, Dcn. Harrison Garlick, Dr. Tiffany Schubert of Wyoming Catholic College, George of the Chivalry Guild, and Banished Kent discuss Fitts 2 and 3 of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight!Visit thegreatbookspodcast.com for our reading schedule!Check out our 50 QUESTION-AND-ANSWER GUIDE to Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.Be sure to visit our sister publication, THE ASCENT, for Christian spirituality.Episode SummaryThe panel continues the Christmas reading of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, exploring Fitts 2 and 3 with Dr. Tiffany Schubert. The discussion covers the meditative passage of time, Gawain's elaborate armor and pentangle, his wilderness journey, arrival at the lord's castle, and the three bedroom temptations mirroring the lord's hunts. Themes of courtesy versus Christian prudence, the unexpected location of peril, and human imperfection dominate.Why Sir Gawain and the Green Knight Is Worth ReadingThis poem masterfully redirects chivalric expectations from martial heroism to internal trials of temperance and fidelity, using irony, humor, and subtle symbolism to expose the tensions within knighthood itself. As Dr. Schubert notes, it brings readers “back down into this world”—a murky, incarnate place of comfort and laughter where true danger often hides—while probing whether Christian virtue can govern or perfect courtly ideals. Rich in liturgical resonance, Marian devotion, and realistic grace, it humanizes the heroic quest, making it profoundly relevant for reflecting on temptation, fear, and humility during the Christmas season.Key Discussion PointsTime & Seasons: Opening meditation on cyclical yet forward-moving time; Gawain's lingering and All Hallows' departure as liturgical reflection on mortality.Armor & Pentangle: Lavish buildup of Gawain's gear and “endless knot” (five sets of five perfections, piety surpassing all) as outward ideal—quickly deflated as armor is removed.Mary Inside the Shield: Hidden source of strength and piety governing the public projection of perfection.Wilderness to Castle: Dismissal of monster battles; castle as surprising “answer” to Marian prayer—Providence working through murky, tempting paths.Second Christmas Game: Bertilak's exchange of winnings parallels the first deadly game, shifting peril to courtesy and domestic temptation.Three Temptations & Hunts: Parallel structure—doe (subtle), boar (fierce), fox (cunning); Gawain resists lust admirably but accepts/conceals girdle out of fear of death.Courtesy vs. Christian Prudence: Repeated bedroom returns (no Joseph-like flight) prolong exposure, allowing lady to exploit deeper flaw—courtesy overriding removal from sin.Confession Ambiguity: Post-girdle absolution raises questions of self-awareness and lingering human frailty.

It's Christmas week, and for me, this is a week to finally settle into the holiday mood. This is the time we decorate our tree, get in touch with friends and family, and start reveling in the spirit of joy and peace that feels so elusive other times of the year. So this is not the week I want to dive into a heavy teaching topic here on the podcast. What I want to do today is spread a little holiday harp happiness with a short musical program for you to enjoy. The theme of the program is "Classics for a Relaxing Holiday," classical music that is appropriate for the holidays, but isn't specific to this time of year. In other words, no jingling bells or Santa Claus songs - just calm, perhaps even meditative harp music, assembled from my various recordings and videos. I've listed the program in the show notes, and for some of the pieces, you'll also find links to sheet music arrangements in our Harp Mastery® shop. I've also included spoken introductions to each piece to give you a little of the background to the piece or what I love about it. But I realize you might want to make this music part of the background to your holidays without the narration, so in the show notes I have put links to alternate ways to download or listen to the music. One is a bonus podcast episode that has only the music, without the speaking. The other is a link to the music on YouTube where I've added some harp photographs that I have taken on my recent travels.

Today, December 19, would have been my late mother's 90th birthday. These past three months since her death have been so emotionally draining for me, and would have been even without the shitshow that the world has become in that time. On the other hand, I have been able to appreciate more fully the complicated bond that she and I shared. At the time of her death, I did two memorial tributes to “Jane's Divas” and today, in honor of her birthday, I present a singer that we both adored, the Dutch doyenne of art song, Elly Ameling. And because I've offered so many Elly Ameling episodes already on Countermelody, I thought it completely fitting to celebrate our beloved Elly in the repertoire in which she had virtually no peer: the Lieder of Franz Schubert. I've chosen a setlist of some of my favorite Schubert songs, in performances ranging over nearly 30 years of Ameling's career. And leave it to me, there are more than a few surprises to be encountered herein! 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 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.

Okay, I confess that the title of this week's episode is intentionally misleading, but if I told you what it actually was outright, you might not listen, and that would be a great loss! On Monday I celebrated Larry Kert for World AIDS Day, and today, I have made a selection of musical settings of the Marian Antiphon Salve Regina, which translated means, “Hail, Queen,” so there you have the inspiration for the episode. In fact, this is an episode chock-full of particularly glorious singing, and I don't think you'll regret spending the time with these glorious Queens of Song (with a few Kings tossed in)! The 11th-century Salve Regina text, far from being dry and dull, provided inspiration for a wide range of composers, primarily of the Baroque (Handel, Vivaldi, Hasse, the Scarlattis, Monteverdi, and a number of others), but also of later vintage (Mozart, Johann Christian Bach, Schubert, and even Puccini). The singers who perform these works are a Who's Who of Countermelody favorites (Helen Donath, Rachel Yakar, Margaret Marshall, Francisco Araiza, Elly Ameling, and Roberta Alexander) and new friends, including three countertenors (Gérard Lesne, John Angelo Messana, and Jochen Kowalski) who provided inspiration to me as a young singer. Dive right in to this episode, my friends, and never fear: would I steer you wrong? Never! The episode begins with a tribute to Madeline Kahn, who died 26 years ago this week.
