Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Spring Serenade: A Journey Through Hősök tere's Magical Moments Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2025-03-29-22-34-02-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A Hősök terének ünnepi zsongása tavasszal mindig különleges.En: The festive buzz of Hősök tere (Heroes' Square) in spring is always special.Hu: Színes virágok szegélyezik a teret, a szobrok hosszú árnyékot vetnek a nap melegétől, és húsvéti dallamok szűrődnek át a levegőn.En: Colorful flowers line the square, the statues cast long shadows from the warmth of the sun, and Easter melodies drift through the air.Hu: Áron, egy lelkes fotós, erre a különleges napra érkezett, hogy megörökítse a tavasz megújulását Budapest szívében.En: Áron, an enthusiastic photographer, arrived on this special day to capture the renewal of spring in the heart of Budapest.Hu: Áron szeme a tömeg felett barangolt, keresve a megfelelő pillanatot egy képkocka megörökítésére.En: Áron's eyes wandered over the crowd, searching for the perfect moment to capture in a frame.Hu: Ekkor megpillantotta Zoltánt, a tér zenészét, aki gitárjára hangolta az emberek szívét.En: He then spotted Zoltán, the square's musician, tuning the hearts of the people with his guitar.Hu: Áron megállt, hogy belemerüljön a dallamok szépségébe.En: Áron stopped to immerse himself in the beauty of the melodies.Hu: Zenéjének hatása alatt fényképezőgépét leeresztette, úgy döntött, hagyja, hogy a zene vezesse.En: Under the influence of the music, he lowered his camera, deciding to let the music guide him.Hu: Eközben Réka, aki a hely történelmét tanulmányozta, elmerült az elbeszélésekben és a téren található szobrok történeteiben.En: Meanwhile, Réka, who was studying the place's history, was engrossed in the narratives and the stories of the statues in the square.Hu: A zenészek hangulata azonban őt is megérintette.En: However, the musicians' atmosphere touched her as well.Hu: Ahogy fölnézett, észrevette Áront, aki valamit fényképezett, ami őt is érdekelte.En: As she looked up, she noticed Áron, who was photographing something that also interested her.Hu: Réka elsétált Áronhoz.En: Réka walked over to Áron.Hu: "Nagyon szép ez a zene, nem?En: "This music is very beautiful, isn't it?"Hu: " szólította meg mosolyogva.En: she said with a smile.Hu: Áron bólintott, szemeiben érdeklődés csillant.En: Áron nodded, a sparkle of interest in his eyes.Hu: "Igen, valóban különleges pillanat," válaszolta, és visszanézett Zoltán felé, majd Réka felé fordult.En: "Yes, it's indeed a special moment," he replied, looking back toward Zoltán, then turning to Réka.Hu: "Te is itt készülsz valami felfedezni?En: "Are you also here to discover something?"Hu: "Réka elmosolyodott, és egy lépéssel közelebb lépett.En: Réka smiled and took a step closer.Hu: "Igen, a hely történelmi jelentősége mindig lenyűgöz.En: "Yes, the historical significance of the place always fascinates me.Hu: És te miért fényképezel itt?En: And why are you photographing here?"Hu: " Áron elmagyarázta neki szenvedélyét az élet megörökítése iránt, azt, hogy szereti megmutatni a pillanat varázsát másoknak is.En: Áron explained his passion for capturing life, and how he loves sharing the magic of the moment with others.Hu: Miközben beszélgettek, Zoltán gitárjára finoman zongorált, a háttérben közös dallamtérré varázsolva őket.En: As they talked, Zoltán gently played on his guitar, transforming the background into a shared melody space for them.Hu: A zene és az érdeklődés köréjük szőtte történetüket, megnyitva az új ismeretség kapuját.En: The music and their mutual interest wove their story, opening the gate to a new acquaintance.Hu: Ahogy a délután a végéhez közeledett, Áron és Réka együtt hagyták el a Hősök terét.En: As the afternoon drew to a close, Áron and Réka left Hősök tere together.Hu: Közösen fedezték fel, hogy nem csak a fotózás vagy a történelem köthet össze két embert, hanem az apró, megosztott pillanatok is.En: They discovered together that it's not only photography or history that can connect two people, but also the small, shared moments.Hu: Most, az új, közös út elején, látták, hogy Budapest sokkal többet rejtett számukra, mint azt valaha is képzelték volna.En: At the beginning of their new, shared path, they realized that Budapest held much more for them than they had ever imagined.Hu: Így Áron megtanulta becsülni a környezetével való mélyebb kapcsolatot, Réka pedig rájött, hogy a történelem tanulmányozását a személyes tapasztalatokkal is gazdagíthatja.En: Thus, Áron learned to appreciate a deeper connection with his surroundings, and Réka realized that studying history can be enriched by personal experiences.Hu: Új kaland kezdődött számukra, amely nemcsak a város, hanem egymás világát is új fényben láttatta.En: A new adventure began for them, shedding new light not only on the city but also on each other's worlds.

Interpreten: Mozarteumorchester Salzburg, Reinhard GoebelLabel: Berlin ClassicsEAN: 885470030227Im August 2023 hat das Mozarteumorchester Salzburg eine neue CD Edition bei Berlin Classics begonnen. Chefdirigent Roberto González-Monjas dirigierte damals Serenaden von Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Nach Bruckner, Henze und Richard Strauss kehrt das Mozarteumorchester Salzburg auf seiner jüngsten CD nun unter Reinhard Goebel wieder zurück zu Mozart. Die Mozartkugel rollt wieder, und das bereits zum fünften Mal. Gemeint ist damit natürlich die stilisierte Mozartkugel in buntem Stanniolpapier, diesmal im Farbton Apricot, auf dem Cover der aktuellen CD-Reihe des Mozarteumorchesters Salzburg. Die sogenannte Posthornserenade von Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, also die Serenade in D-Dur KV 320, hat Reinhard Goebel mit den Musikerinnen und Musikern des Mozarteumorchesters in den Mittelpunkt der gemeinsamen Arbeit gestellt. Umrahmt von den zwei Märschen in D-Dur KV335.  Schon die ersten Klänge des ersten Marsches verheißen Großes. Hier wird Mozart nicht als klassische Pflichtübung gesehen.Das wäre aber unter der fundierten Leitung von Reinhard Goebel auch gar nicht möglich. Zu sehr brennt der alte Musik Spezialist für alles, was er macht. Sei es Veracini, Bach, Telemann oder, wie hier, Mozart. Historisch informiertes Musizieren bedeutet für Goebel in erster Linie Musizieren! Und dann kommen seine wissenschaftlichen und spielpraktischen Erfahrungen und Ansätze dazu. Und das merkt man auch hier bei Mozart. Schön frisch und knackig spielt das Mozarteumorchester, man spürt nach den ersten Einleitungstakten, wenn das Allegro con spirito Fahrt aufnimmt, wie die Musikerinnen und Musiker sich mit Goebel einschwingen. Dass diese Serenade genauso gut Oboen-, Flöten- oder Fagottserenade heißen könnte, zeigen die Sätze drei und vier, in denen sich die angesprochenen Instrumente bzw. deren Spielerinnen und Spieler in Höchstform zeigen. Den Ehrenplatz mit dem Titel hat sich aber das Posthorn mit seinem Solo im zweiten Trio des zweiten Menuetts verdient. Auch sehr schön. (mg)

American conductor Marin Alsop was the first woman to lead major orchestras in the UK, South America and in the United States, becoming principal conductor of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra in 2007. Nominated for Grammy Awards five times, in 2013 she became the first ever woman to lead the Last Night Of The Proms, and is now regarded as one of the greatest conductors in the world. She talks to John Wilson about her professional musician parents who nurtured her love of music and supported her career choice from the age of 9 when she first revealed she wanted to be a conductor. Marin also talks about Leonard Bernstein, the great American composer and conductor, who inspired her ambitions and later became a mentor to her. She also chooses Carl Jung's work The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious, and explains how his theories have helped her in leading orchestras around the world.Producer: Edwina PitmanMusic and archive used: Serenade in C major for String Orchestra, Op. 48; Valse, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, New York City Ballet Orchestra, 1986 Irish Spring commercial: "Clean as a Whistle" 1980 Leonard Bernstein, Young People's Concerts: "What is Classical Music?", CBS Television, 24 January 1959 Omnibus: Leonard Bernstein's West Side Story, BBC2, 10 May 1985 Archive of Leonard Bernstein and Marin Alsop at the Schleswig-Holstein Musik Festival, 1987 Leonard Bernstein, Young People's Concerts: "What Does Music Mean?", CBS Television, 18 January 1958 Archive of OrchKids concert, Baltimore Symphony Orchestra Woman's Hour, BBC Radio 4, 26 July, 2005 Rhapsody in Blue, George Gershwin, Jean-Yves Thibaudet, Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, Marin Alsop Last Night of the Proms, BBC1, 7 September 2013 Symphony No. 2 in C Minor, "Resurrection", Gustav Mahler, Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra, Marin Alsop

In this interview with Tom Morris, a veteran of orchestra management whose career included leadership roles with the Boston Symphony and the Cleveland Orchestra, conductor Devin Patrick Hughes provides a comprehensive look at the inner workings of orchestral institutions, the evolution of their management, and the crucial role of music in their success. Morris's journey from a percussionist to a top-level administrator offers a unique perspective, and his reflections provide valuable lessons for anyone interested in the performing arts. One of the most compelling aspects of the interview is Morris's discussion of how his musical background shaped his management philosophy. He emphasizes his deep understanding of musicians' lives, having experienced firsthand the challenges and demands of performing in an orchestra. This empathy enabled him to build trust with musicians and approach labor negotiations with a unique perspective. Morris's belief that "ultimately these institutions are about the music" underscores the importance of passion and artistic integrity in organizational leadership. The episode also explores the historical evolution of orchestra management, particularly the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Morris recounts how, before the 1970s, the orchestra relied on simple postcards for subscription renewals. He explains that over the seventies and eighties, the percentage of the budget earned from ticket sales gradually fell. This shift necessitated the development of marketing and fundraising departments, leading to a significant increase in administrative staff.  Morris shares fascinating insights about the Boston Pops, emphasizing that it was founded in 1885, before Arthur Fiedler became its 17th conductor in 1929. The Boston Symphony created the Pops to provide more employment for musicians and to perform lighter music for a broader audience. He discusses how the Boston Symphony transformed Symphony Hall into a "beer hall" to accommodate a more informal setting for the Pops concerts. He explains that in the early days the Pops sold blocks of tickets to community groups and did not have to focus on individual ticket sales. He also recounts how the popularity of Arthur Fiedler was enhanced even further by the "Evening at Pops" television series. Morris details the process of selecting John Williams as Fiedler's successor, explaining that Williams was chosen for his musical integrity and knowledge of the symphony orchestra. Furthermore, the interview addresses the crucial dynamic between management, the music director, and the board of directors, which Morris refers to as the "Bermuda Triangle.” Morris suggests that this structure can function perfectly if the right people are in those roles and are bound by a common vision. He also emphasizes that having a collaborative culture is essential, but that collaborative decision-making should be avoided. Morris stresses the importance of clear lines of authority and not settling for "good enough" when hiring. He also shares that when hiring he uses Jim Collins' three C's: competence, character, and chemistry. These points underscore the need for strong leadership and a shared vision in any successful organization. Morris also touches on the importance of thoughtful programming. He humorously mentions his collection of "dumb programs" and emphasizes the importance of carefully considering the combination of pieces in a concert. He contrasts examples of bad programming with one of his favorites, a concert he organized with Christoph von Dohnányi, which combined pieces by Ligeti, Wagner, and Bruckner. This conversation highlights that thoughtful artistic direction is an essential element in the success of an orchestra. Thank you for joining us on One Symphony.

We want to get their reflections about the special cruise which left Miami December 10, 2023, and disembarked in Miami on September 10, 2024. Shortly after embarkation Ultimate World Cruise became a social media sensation, and for several passengers it became a social media obsession. One of the best known of those passengers was Brandee Lake, and The Joy of Cruising Podcast was fortunate to have her on the show earlier in the year Ep. 115 . In addition to being cabin mates for nine months, Brandee and Shannon host a podcast together, Brannon Files, and they did publish a couple of episodes from Serenade of the Seas. I enjoyed immensely when Brandee joined the podcast. It is now my pleasure to bring Brandee back to the show and welcome her sister Shannon and hear the highlights of their Ultimate World Cruise, learn about its aftermath—and its path forward, and talk to Brandee and Shannon about their cruising plans. Relying on ship wifi is slow, unsecure, sometimes not available & at foreign ports travelers don't want to pay their carriers' high fees.

In this week's Big Up, Let Down segment, we've got some real talk and wild stories. First, an unsung hero in Boulder, Colorado, swapped out typical traffic signs for some blunt advice, like one reminding drivers to “Get Off Your Damn Phone” and another that says, “Don't Kill Any Kids Today.” Then, the Royal Caribbean cruise ship Explorer of the Seas got a little too adventurous while sailing from Barcelona to Miami. After hitting a sudden storm off Tenerife, the ship tilted 14 degrees, sending furniture sliding and glass shattering—while Celine Dion's My Heart Will Go On blared through the speakers, adding an eerie soundtrack to the chaos. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

SPRINGTIME NEAR FOR THE KOALA SERENADE: 2/4: Koala: A Natural History and an Uncertain Future by  Danielle Clode  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Koala-Natural-History-Uncertain-Future/dp/1324036834 Koalas regularly appeared in Australian biologist Danielle Clode's backyard, but it was only when a bushfire threatened that she truly paid them attention. She soon realized how much she had to learn about these complex and mysterious animals. In vivid, descriptive prose, Clode embarks on a delightful and surprising journey through evolutionary biology, natural history, and ecology to understand where these enigmatic animals came from and what their future may hold. She begins her search with the fossils of ancient giant koalas, delving into why the modern koala has become the lone survivor of a once-diverse family of uniquely Australian marsupials. Koala investigates the remarkable physiology of these charismatic creatures. Born the size of tiny “jellybeans,” joeys face an uphill battle, from crawling into their mother's pouch to being weaned onto a toxic diet of gum-tree leaves, the koalas' single source of food. Clode explores the complex relationship and unexpected connections between this endearing species and humans. She explains how koalas are simultaneously threatened with extinction in some areas due to disease, climate change, and increasing wildfires, while overpopulating forests in other parts of the country. Deeply researched and filled with wonder, Koala is both a tender and inquisitive paean to a species unlike any other and a call to ensure its survival. 1945
