Stephan Zinner ist vielen noch als Markus Söder auf dem Singspiel am Nockherberg bekannt. Der Schauspieler, Kabarettist und Musiker stellt bei Hermine Kaiser sein Buch "Prachtexemplar" vor, mit Kurzgeschichten aus dem ganz normalen Alltagswahnsinn.

Volks- und Kunstmusik waren in Süditalien schon immer eng miteinander verbunden. Die Cappella Mediterranea vermischt beide Sphären zu einem dramatischen Singspiel im Stil der Barockzeit. "Pasticcio süditalienischer Kostbarkeiten" ist eine Liebeserklärung an die Musik dieser uralten Kulturregion.

Papageno, die Königin der Nacht, Pamina, Tamino – das sind alles bekannte Figuren aus der Oper "Die Zauberflöte" von Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart und seinem Librettisten Emanuel Schikaneder. In Berlin haben derzeit gleich zwei Opernhäuser das Singspiel auf dem Spielplan. Jede Menge Mythen und Geheimnisse ranken sich um das Werk und vor allem seine Deutung. Mit einem neuen Buch ist jetzt eine weitere Deutung hinzugekommen: "Die Zauberflöte – Mozart und der Abschied von der Aufklärung" heißt das Buch. Der Züricher Musikwissenschaftler Laurenz Lütteken hat es geschrieben. Jan Ritterstaedt stellt das Buch vor.

Die Rolle des Münchner Oberbürgermeisters ist gesetzt beim Singspiel auf dem Nockherberg. Sie ist zwar keine tragende wie die des bayerischen Ministerpräsidenten Markus Söder (dieses Jahr wieder gespielt von Thomas Unger) oder Hubert Aiwanger (Stefan Murr) und Olaf Scholz (Nikola Norgauer). Aber als Stadtoberhaupt und SPD-Mitglied ist das traditionelle Derblecken zum Starkbieranstich ohne den Rathauschef nicht vorstellbar. Seit 2015 steht Gerhard Wittmann als Darsteller von Dieter Reiter auf der Nockherberg-Bühne. Aufgewachsen im Landkreis Aichach, aber seit vielen Jahren schon Münchner, kann er ohne sich zu verstellen, so sprechen wie Reiter. Um „Albträume“ geht es in diesem Jahr, und davor ist auch der OB nicht gefeit. Im Podcast erzählt Wittmann von der Stimmung im Singspiel-Team und von der Zusammenarbeit mit den Autoren Stefan Betz und Richard Oehmann. Er erzählt auch, wie es sich anfühlt, über Politiker herzuziehen und nüchtern auf der Bühne zu stehen, während im Publikum Starkbier getrunken wird. Außerdem geht es um Wittmanns Rolle als Leopold Eberhofer, dem braven Bruder von Franz in der erfolgreichen Regionalkrimireihe und wie er gegen den Willen seines Vaters Schauspieler wurde. Er verrät auch, wo er demnächst wieder auf der Bühne stehen wird.

Er singt, schauspielert und tanzt im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes gleich auf mehreren Bühnen. Ob im Musical Ludwig2, in dem er schon als 10-Jähriger den kleinen Ludwig verkörperte, ob als Faschingsprinz, bei Weihnachts- oder Wohltätigkeitskonzerten oder auch beim „Füssener Singspiel“, das er selbst vor einigen Jahren ins Leben gerufen hat.

Description Need a quick refresher on the plot of Mozart's Die Zauberflöte aka The Magic Flute? Take a minute to get the scoop!Fun FactWolfgang Amadeus Mozart and librettist Emanuel Schikaneder decided to write The Magic Flute aka Die Zauberflöte in the style of Singspiel—a German-language comic opera with singing and dialogue—though it should be noted that Mozart never actually referred to it as a Singspiel. The opera premiered on 30 September 1791, just two months before Mozart's death, with the composer himself conducting and Schikaneder as the bird-catcher Papageno. It was an immediate hit with audiences. It took Vienna by storm, and its popularity soon spread throughout all of Europe. About StevenSteven is a Canadian composer living in Toronto. He creates a range of works, with an emphasis on the short-form genre—his muse being to offer the listener both the darker and more satiric shades of human existence.

The Abduction from the Seraglio is an opera Singspiel in three acts by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The German libretto is by Gottlieb Stephanie, based on Christoph Friedrich Bretzner's Belmont und Constanze, oder Die Entführung aus dem Serail. The plot concerns the attempt of the hero Belmonte, assisted by his servant Pedrillo, to rescue his beloved Konstanze from the seraglio of Pasha Selim. The work premiered on 16 July 1782 at the Vienna Burgtheater, with the composer conducting.

Die Schuldigkeit des ersten Gebots (complete title in historical spelling: Die Schuldigkeit Des ersten und fürnehmsten Gebotes; The Obligation of the First and Foremost Commandment), K. 35, is a sacred musical play (geistliches Singspiel) composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1767 when he was 11 years old. It is Mozart's first opera or, more specifically, sacred drama, as is suggested by the name. The libretto is now attributed to Ignatz Anton von Weiser [de], although Johann Adam Wieland or Jakob Anton Marianus Wimmer had been suggested earlier. (The title page of the libretto ascribes it only to "J.A.W.".) Only the first part of the opera was composed by Mozart; the second and third parts were contributed by Michael Haydn and Anton Cajetan Adlgasser respectively. However, these other two parts have not survived. Part 1 of the opera was first performed on March 12, 1767, in the Knight's Hall of the Palace of the Archbishop, the Salzburg Residenz. Part 2 was performed on March 19, and part 3 on March 26.

„Politik ohne Prinzipien“, „Religion ohne Opfer“ oder „Wissenschaft ohne Menschlichkeit“ ... 1925 schrieb Mahatma Gandhi über die sieben größten Sünden der modernen Gesellschaft. Die Karlsruher Schauspieldirektorin Anna Bergmann hat sieben Stücke zu diesen sieben „Neuen Todsünden“ in Auftrag gegeben und zusammen auf die Bühne gebracht. Der gut dreieinhalbstündige Abend zeigt lauter kleine Stücke – Parodie, Kammerspiel, Fernsehreportage, Singspiel – aber kein überzeugendes Gesamtbild, findet SWR2 Theaterkritikerin Marie-Dominique Wetzel.

Was hat ein Hotel am idyllischen Wolfgangsee mit Berlin zu tun? Die Antwort findet man „Im weißen Rössl“, einem Singspiel, das 1930 seine Uraufführung erlebte. Die Geschichte des Musikwerks beginnt bereits 30 Jahre früher in einem Berliner Fertigteilhaus im Salzkammergut. Und auch wenn sie mit ihrer Peter-Alexander-Heimatseligkeit im Jahr 1960 ihren vorläufigen Höhepunkt erreicht hat, führen Spuren doch immer wieder nach Berlin zurück. In nur 15 Minuten tritt Marc Lippuner den Beweis an, dass "Im weißen Rössl" weniger österreichisches als vielmehr Ur-Berliner Kulturgut ist. ;)

The little green lip at the top is what set it apart from bottles worth a fraction of that price."These bottles are extremely rare, there have only been two or three found in perfect condition," said auctioneer Graham Lancaster."That colour combination of glazes makes it unique worldwide."He said the Warwick bottle set a record price locally, and quite possible a world-record, for an antique crown-seal soft drink bottle of its type.16 June 2020 – Christopher Nolan’s Batman Begins turns 15 - https://comicbook.com/movies/news/batman-begins-anniversary-the-dark-knight-christopher-nolan-christian-bale/As the '90s progressed, the image of Batman on the big screen began to descend into the realm of campiness previously seen in Adam West's take on the character back in the '60s TV series and movie, which started to sour audiences on the character entirely. After a variety of reports emerged about a new take on the character in the early '00s, fans were given Christopher Nolan's gritty and grounded origin story for the character in 2005, debuting Christian Bale as the Dark Knight. This new take on the character harkened back to some of the more grounded interpretations of the character, while adding just enough whimsy to remind audiences that this was still a comic book movie. Batman Begins went on to take in $371 million worldwide, a fraction of the figures that subsequent superhero movies would go on to earn, That film's success might not have been groundbreaking, but it set the stage for The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises, with some audiences considering those films to be the best comic book films of all time, both of which earned major box office hauls and the former earning Heath Ledger a posthumous Oscar for his performance as the Joker.18 June 2020 – Dame Vera Lynn passes away at 103 - https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-53091856The singer was best known for performing hits such as We'll Meet Again to troops on the front line in countries including India and Egypt. Six weeks ago, ahead of the 75th anniversary of VE Day and during the height of the coronavirus pandemic, Dame Vera said simple acts of bravery and sacrifice still define our nation. A week later, she became the oldest artist to get a top 40 album in the UK, beating her own record when her greatest hits album re-entered the charts at number 30. Born in London's East Ham in 1917, Dame Vera's singing talent was discovered at a young age and by age 11 she had left school to pursue a full-time career as a dancer and singer. Lynn devoted much time and energy to charity work connected with ex-servicemen, disabled children and breast cancer. She was held in great affection by Second World War veterans and in 2000 was named the Briton who best exemplified the spirit of the 20th century. Paying tribute, Prime Minister Boris Johnson said the singer's "charm and magical voice entranced and uplifted our country in some of our darkest hours". "Her voice will live on to lift the hearts of generations to come," he said. She died at the age of 103 in Ditchling,East Sussex.19 June 2020 – Sir Ian Holm passes away at 88 - https://www.theguardian.com/film/2020/jun/19/ian-holm-dies-alien-chariots-of-fire-bilbo-bagginsSir Ian Holm, an acclaimed British actor whose long career included roles in Chariots of Fire and The Lord of the Rings has died. A star of stage and screen, Sir Ian won a Tony Award for best featured actor as Lenny in Harold Pinter's play The Homecoming in 1967. He won a British Academy Film Award and gained a supporting-actor Oscar nomination for portraying pioneering athletics coach Sam Mussabini in the hit 1982 film Chariots of Fire. His other well-known film roles include Ash in Alien, Father Vito Cornelius in The Fifth Element, Chef Skinner in Ratatouille, and Bilbo Baggins in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit film series. Sir Ian was knighted in 1998 for his services to drama. He died from Parkinson’s disease in London.Remembrances16 June 1804 – Johann Adam Hiller - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Adam_HillerGerman composer,conductor and writer on music, regarded as the creator of the Singspiel, an early form of German opera. It is a form of German-language music drama, now regarded as a genre of opera. It is characterized by spoken dialogue, which is alternated with ensembles,songs, ballads, and arias which were often strophic, or folk-like. Singspiel plots are generally comic or romantic in nature, and frequently include elements of magic, fantastical creatures, and comically exaggerated characterizations of good and evil. In many of these operas he collaborated with the poet Christian Felix Weiße. Furthermore, Hiller was a teacher who encouraged musical education for women, his pupils including Elisabeth Mara and Corona Schröter. He was Kapellmeister of Abel Seyler's theatrical company, and became the first Kapellmeister of Leipzig Gewandhaus. To Hiller has been given the credit of being the originator of the Singspiel, the beginning of German comedy opera as distinct from the French and Italian developments. The most important of his operas were: Lottchen am Hofe (Lottie at court, 1760),Der Teufel ist los (The devil is loose, 1768), and Poltis, oder Das gerettete Troja (Poltis, or Troy rescued, 1782). The lyrics of all his Singspiele were of considerable musical value, and were long popular. Among his sacred compositions are: A Passion Cantata, Funeral Music in Honor of Hasse, a setting of the one hundredth Psalm; and a few symphonies. He died at the age of 76 in Leipzig.16 June 1858 – John Snow - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_SnowEnglish physician and a leader in the development of anaesthesia and medical hygiene. He is considered one of the founders of modern epidemiology, in part because of his work in tracing the source of a cholera outbreak in Soho, London, in 1854, which he curtailed by removing the handle of a water pump. Snow's findings inspired the adoption of anaesthesia as well as fundamental changes in the water and waste systems of London, which led to similar changes in other cities, and a significant improvement in general public health around the world. John Snow was one of the first physicians to study and calculate dosages for the use of ether and chloroform as surgical anaesthetics, allowing patients to undergo surgical and obstetric procedures without the distress and pain they would otherwise experience. He designed the apparatus to safely administer ether to the patients and also designed a mask to administer chloroform. He personally administered chloroform to Queen Victoria when she gave birth to the last two of her nine children, Leopold in 1853 and Beatrice in 1857 and was still not yet knighted, leading to wider public acceptance of obstetric anaesthesia. John Snow studied chloroform as much as he studied ether, which was introduced in 1847 by James Young Simpson, a Scottish obstetrician. He realised that chloroform was much more potent and required more attention and precision when administering it. Snow first realised this with Hannah Greener, a 15-year-old patient who died on 28 January 1848 after a surgical procedure that required the cutting of her toenail. She was administered chloroform by covering her face with a cloth dipped in the substance. However, she quickly lost pulse and died. After investigating her death and a couple of deaths that followed, he realized that chloroform had to be administered carefully and published his findings in a letter to The Lancet. Snow was a skeptic of the then-dominant miasma theory that stated that diseases such as cholera and bubonic plague were caused by pollution or a noxious form of "bad air". The germ theory of disease had not yet been developed, so Snow did not understand the mechanism by which the disease was transmitted. His observation of the evidence led him to discount the theory of foul air. He first published his theory in an 1849 essay, On the Mode of Communication of Cholera, followed by a more detailed treatise in 1855 incorporating the results of his investigation of the role of the water supply in the Soho epidemic of 1854. By talking to local residents (with the help of Reverend Henry Whitehead), he identified the source of the outbreak as the public water pump on Broad Street (now Broadwick Street). Although Snow's chemical and microscope examination of a water sample from the Broad Street pump did not conclusively prove its danger, his studies of the pattern of the disease were convincing enough to persuade the local council to disable the well pump by removing its handle (force rod). Snow later used a dot map to illustrate the cluster of cholera cases around the pump. He also used statistics to illustrate the connection between the quality of the water source and cholera cases. He showed that homes supplied by the Southwark and Vauxhall Waterworks Company, which was taking water from sewage-polluted sections of the Thames, had a cholera rate fourteen times that of those supplied by Lambeth Waterworks Company, which obtained water from the upriver, cleaner Seething Wells. Snow's study was a major event in the history of public health and geography. It is regarded as the founding event of the science of epidemiology. He died from stroke at the age of 45 in London.16 June 1869 – Charles Sturt - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_SturtCharles Napier Sturt, British officer and explorer of Australia, and part of the European exploration of Australia. He led several expeditions into the interior of the continent, starting from Sydney and later from Adelaide. His expeditions traced several of the westward-flowing rivers, establishing that they all merged into the Murray River, which flows into the Southern Ocean. He was searching to prove his own passionately held belief that an "inland sea" was located at the centre of the continent. Sturt found the conditions and climate in New South Wales much better than he expected, and he developed a great interest in the country. Sturt received approval from Governor Darling on 4 November 1828 to explore the area of the Macquarie River in western New South Wales. The party faced the ordeal of rowing back upriver on the Murray and Murrumbidgee, against the current, in the heat of an Australian summer. Their supplies ran out and, when they reached the site of Narrandera in April, they were unable to go any further. Sturt sent two men overland in search of supplies and they returned in time to save the party from starvation. But Sturt went blind for some months and never fully recovered his health. By the time they reached Sydney again, they had rowed and sailed nearly 2,900 kilometres of the river system. Sturt believed that it was his destiny to discover a great salt water lake, known as 'the inland sea', in the middle of Australia. At very least, he wanted to be the first explorer to plant his foot in 'the centre' of Australia. In August 1844, he set out with a party of 15 men, 200 sheep, six drays, and a boat to explore north-western New South Wales and to advance into central Australia. They travelled along the Murray and Darling rivers before passing the future site of Broken Hill. They were stranded for months by the extreme summer conditions near the present site of Milparinka. When the rains eventually came, Sturt moved north and established a depot at Fort Grey (today this site is within Sturt National Park). With a small group of men, including explorer John McDouall Stuart as his draughtsman, Sturt pressed on across what is now known as Sturt's Stony Desert and into the Simpson Desert. Unable to go further, he turned back to the depot. Sturt made a second attempt to reach the centre of Australia, but he developed scurvy in the extreme conditions. His health broke down and he was forced to abandon the attempt. John Harris Browne, surgeon on the expedition, assisted Sturt, took over leadership of the party and, after travelling a total of 3,000 miles (4,800 km), brought it back to safety. He died from heart failure at the age of 74 in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.16 June 1977 – Wernher von Braun - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wernher_von_BraunGerman and later American aerospace engineer and space architect. He was the leading figure in the development of rocket technology in Nazi Germany and a pioneer of rocket and space technology in the United States. While in his twenties and early thirties, von Braun worked in Nazi Germany's rocket development program. He helped design and develop the V-2 rocket at Peenemünde during World War II. Though a member of the SS, following the war he was secretly moved to the United States, along with about 1,600 other German scientists, engineers, and technicians, as part of Operation Paperclip. He worked for the United States Army on an intermediate-range ballistic missile program, and he developed the rockets that launched the United States' first space satellite Explorer 1. In 1960, his group was assimilated into NASA, where he served as director of the newly formed Marshall Space Flight Center and as the chief architect of the Saturn V super heavy-lift launch vehicle that propelled the Apollo spacecraft to the Moon. In 1967, von Braun was inducted into the National Academy of Engineering, and in 1975, he received the National Medal of Science. He advocated a human mission to Mars. Von Braun also developed the idea of a Space Camp that would train children in fields of science and space technologies, as well as help their mental development much the same way sports camps aim at improving physical development. Von Braun took a very conservative approach to engineering, designing with ample safety factors and redundant structure. This became a point of contention with other engineers, who struggled to keep vehicle weight down so that payload could be maximized. As noted above, his excessive caution likely led to the U.S. losing the race to put a man into space with the Soviets. He died from pancreatic cancer at the age of 65 in Alexandria, Virginia.Famous Birthdays16 June 1801 – Julius Plücker - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_Pl%C3%BCckerGerman mathematician and physicist. He made fundamental contributions to the field of analytical geometry and was a pioneer in the investigations of cathode rays that led eventually to the discovery of the electron. He also vastly extended the study of Lamé curves. In 1836, Plücker was made professor of physics at University of Bonn. In 1858, after a year of working with vacuum tubes of his Bonn colleague Heinrich Geißler, he published his first classical researches on the action of the magnet on the electric discharge in rarefied gases. He found that the discharge caused a fluorescent glow to form on the glass walls of the vacuum tube, and that the glow could be made to shift by applying an electromagnet to the tube, thus creating a magnetic field. It was later shown that the glow was produced by cathode rays. Plücker, first by himself and afterwards in conjunction with Johann Hittorf, made many important discoveries in the spectroscopy of gases. He was the first to use the vacuum tube with the capillary part now called a Geissler tube, by means of which the luminous intensity of feeble electric discharges was raised sufficiently to allow of spectroscopic investigation. He anticipated Robert Wilhelm Bunsen and Gustav Kirchhoff in announcing that the lines of the spectrum were characteristic of the chemical substance which emitted them, and in indicating the value of this discovery in chemical analysis. According to Hittorf, he was the first who saw the three lines of the hydrogen spectrum, which a few months after his death, were recognized in the spectrum of the solar protuberances. In 1865, Plücker returned to the field of geometry and invented what was known as line geometry in the nineteenth century. In projective geometry, Plücker coordinates refer to a set of homogeneous co-ordinates introduced initially to embed the set of lines in three dimensions as a quadric in five dimensions. The construction uses 2×2 minor determinants, or equivalently the second exterior power of the underlying vector space of dimension 4. It is now part of the theory of Grassmannians, to which these co-ordinates apply in generality (k-dimensional subspaces of n-dimensional space). He was born in Elberfeld,Duchy of Berg,Holy Roman Empire.16 June 1915 – John Tukey - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_TukeyJohn Wilder Tukey, American mathematician best known for development of the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm and box plot. The Tukey range test, the Tukey lambda distribution, the Tukey test of additivity, and the Teichmüller–Tukey lemma all bear his name. He is also credited with coining the term 'bit'. Early in his career Tukey worked on developing statistical methods for computers at Bell Labs where he invented the term "bit" in 1947. n 1970, he contributed significantly to what is today known as the jackknife estimation—also termed Quenouille–Tukey jackknife. He introduced the box plot in his 1977 book, "Exploratory Data Analysis". He is also the creator of several little-known methods such as the trimean and median-median line, an easier alternative to linear regression. He also contributed to statistical practice and articulated the important distinction between exploratory data analysis and confirmatory data analysis, believing that much statistical methodology placed too great an emphasis on the latter. Though he believed in the utility of separating the two types of analysis, he pointed out that sometimes, especially in natural science, this was problematic and termed such situations uncomfortable science. Tukey coined many statistical terms that have become part of common usage, but the two most famous coinages attributed to him were related to computer science. While working with John von Neumann on early computer designs, Tukey introduced the word "bit" as a contraction of "binary digit" The term "bit" was first used in an article by Claude Shannon in 1948. In 2000, Fred Shapiro, a librarian at the Yale Law School, published a letter revealing that Tukey's 1958 paper "The Teaching of Concrete Mathematics" contained the earliest known usage of the term "software" found in a search of JSTOR's electronic archives, predating the OED's citation by two years. This led many to credit Tukey with coining the term, particularly in obituaries published that same year, although Tukey never claimed credit for any such coinage. In 1995, Paul Niquette claimed he had originally coined the term in October 1953, although he could not find any documents supporting his claim.The earliest known publication of the term "software" in an engineering context was in August 1953 by Richard R. Carhart, in a RAND Corporation research memorandum. He was born in New Bedford, Massachusetts.16 June 1909 – Archie Carr - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archie_CarrArchie Fairly Carr, Jr., American herpetologist,ecologist and a pioneering conservationist. He was a Professor of Zoology at the University of Florida. In 1987 he was awarded the Eminent Ecologist Award by the Ecological Society of America. He made extraordinary contribution to sea turtle conservation by way of bringing attention to the world's declining turtle populations due to over-exploitation and loss of safe habitat. He started out as a high school science teacher before becoming a college professor. He published numerous books and articles, including Ulendo: Travels of a Naturalist in and out of Africa, High Jungles and Low, So Excellent a Fishe (about his green turtles), The Windward Road and several Time-Life books such as The Everglades and The Reptiles. He was also the author of the Handbook of Turtles, and with Coleman J. Goin, Guide to the Reptiles, Amphibians and Freshwater Fishes of Florida. While a serious scientific and nature writer, he also had a remarkable sense of humor, which led him to publish the parody of scientific taxonomic keys - his A Subjective Key to the Fishes of Alachua County, Florida, affectionately known as the "Carr Key". Carr was also known for his efforts in conservation, especially for sea turtles, helping convince Costa Rica to establish Tortuguero National Park in 1975. He was a co-founder of the Caribbean Conservation Corporation, which helps to save and monitor sea turtles in Tortuguero,Costa Rica. He was often joined in his conservation work by his wife Marjorie Carr, who was a major advocate for conservation in her own right. In 1952 Carr was awarded the Daniel Giraud Elliot Medal from the National Academy of Sciences. He was born in Mobile, Alabama.Events of Interest16 June 1884 – The first purpose-built roller coaster, LaMarcus Adna Thompson's "Switchback Railway", opens in New York's Coney Island amusement park. - https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/first-roller-coaster-in-america-opensKnown as a switchback railway, it was the brainchild of LaMarcus Thompson, traveled approximately six miles per hour and cost a nickel to ride. The new entertainment was an instant success and by the turn of the century there were hundreds of roller coasters around the country. For five cents, riders would climb a tower to board the large bench-like car and were pushed off to coast 600 ft (183 m) down the track to another tower. The car went just over 6 mph (9.7 km/h). At the top of the other tower the vehicle was switched to a return track or "switched back" (hence the name). The new entertainment was an instant success and by the turn of the century there were hundreds of roller coasters around the country.16 June 1911 – IBM founded as the Computing-Tabulating-Recording Company in Endicott, New York. - http://www.techgetz.com/history-of-ibm/In 1911 the company that leased Unit record equipment, especially Hollerith punched cards and card readers to government bureaus and insurance agencies, became the Computing-Tabulating-Recording Company (CTR). Thomas J. Watson (1874-1956) took over in 1924, using the name “International Business Machines.” IBM expanded into electric typewriters and other office machines. Watson was a salesman and concentrated on building a highly motivated, very well paid sales force that could craft solutions for clients unfamiliar with the latest technology. His motto was “THINK”; customers were advised to not “fold, spindle or mutilate” the delicate cardboard cards.16 June 2012 – The United States Air Force's robotic Boeing X-37B spaceplane returns to Earth after a classified 469-day orbital mission. - https://www.space.com/16110-secret-x37b-space-plane-landing.htmlThe unmanned X-37B spacecraft, also known as Orbital Test Vehicle-2 (OTV-2), glided back to Earth on autopilot, touching down at California's Vandenberg Air Force Base at 5:48 a.m. PDT (8:48 a.m. EDT, 1248 GMT). The landing brought to an end the X-37B program's second-ever spaceflight, a mission that lasted more than 15 months with objectives that remain shrouded in secrecy. The X-37B stayed in orbit for 469 days this time, more than doubling the 225 days its sister ship, OTV-1, spent in space last year on the program's maiden flight. Officials at Vandenberg said the spacecraft conducted "on-orbit experiments" during its mission. Exactly what the spacecraft, which is built by Boeing, was doing up there for so long is a secret. The details of the X-37B's mission, which is overseen by the Air Force's Rapid Capabilities Office, are classified, as is its payload. This secrecy has led to some speculation, especially online and abroad, that the X-37B could be a space weapon of some sort — perhaps a sophisticated satellite-killer. Some experts also suspect that the vehicle may be an orbital spy platform. "This is a test vehicle to prove the materials and capabilities, to put experiments in space and bring them back and check out the technologies," Richard McKinney, the Air Force's deputy undersecretary for space programs.16 June 2016 – Shanghai Disneyland Park, the first Disney Park in Mainland China, opens to the public - https://www.dw.com/en/distinctly-chinese-disneyland-opens-in-shanghai/a-19332984Shanghai Disney Resort, the first Disney resort in Mainland China and the sixth worldwide, celebrated its historic Grand Opening today, culminating one of Disney's most ambitious projects ever. The wonder and imagination of Disney greeted the people of China in magical new ways as the gates opened to Shanghai Disneyland, a theme park like no other with the biggest, tallest castle in any Disney park, the first pirate-themed land and Disney's most technologically advanced park to date. Walt Disney Co. CEO Bob Iger and Chinese Vice Premier Wang Yang cut a red ribbon together, signaling the Communist Party's endorsement of the $5.5 billion (4.87 billion euro) resort - one of the largest foreign investments in China. The lavish ceremony featured a children's choir singing "When You Wish Upon a Star," as well as actors dressed as Sleeping Beauty, Donald Duck, and other Disney characters dancing on stage. The entrance of the park is called "Mickey Avenue" instead of "Main Street USA." Stores feature Minnie Mouse in traditional quipau dresses and the Wandering Moon Teahouse is modeled after a building in eastern China. Shanghai Disney Resort is filled with immersive Disney storytelling, thrilling attractions, spectacular live entertainment and memory-making experiences designed to inspire and delight Chinese guests. The world-class vacation destination includes a magical theme park with six themed lands, two imaginatively designed hotels, a Disneytown shopping and dining district, and Wishing Star Park recreational area.IntroArtist – Goblins from MarsSong Title – Super Mario - Overworld Theme (GFM Trap Remix)Song Link -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GNMe6kF0j0&index=4&list=PLHmTsVREU3Ar1AJWkimkl6Pux3R5PB-QJFollow us onFacebook- Page - https://www.facebook.com/NerdsAmalgamated/- Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/440485136816406/Twitter - https://twitter.com/NAmalgamatedSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/6Nux69rftdBeeEXwD8GXrSiTunes -https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/top-shelf-nerds/id1347661094RSS -http://www.thatsnotcanonproductions.com/topshelfnerdspodcast?format=rssInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/nerds_amalgamated/Email - Nerds.Amalgamated@gmail.comSupport via Podhero- https://podhero.com/podcast/449127/nerds-amalgamatedRate & Review us on Podchaser - https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/nerds-amalgamated-623195

In this series of podcasts, Seattle Opera Dramaturg Jonathan Dean gives listeners a taste of nine different types of traditional opera. Singspiel (that’s German for SongPlay) mixes songs, dialogues, choruses, and marvelous orchestral writing with fun and fantasy for a lowbrow, family friendly art form—the ancestor of today’s Star Wars movies. Mozart’s ever-popular Magic Flute is the perfect introduction to Singspiel, as well as one of the most beloved operas ever written. Another wonderful Singspiel, Weber’s Der Freischütz, demonstrates the power of this form to send a wonderfully creepy chill down your spine. Musical examples on this podcast drawn from Seattle Opera productions of The Magic Flute, 2017, conducted by Julia Jones and starring John Moore, Andrew Stenson, and Christina Poulitsi; Der Freischütz, 1999, conducted by Gerard Schwarz and starring Harry Peeters and Gabor Andrasy; Fidelio, 2003, conducted by Gerard Schwarz and starring Jane Eaglen and Kevin Langan; The Flying Dutchman, 2016, conducted by Sebastian Lang-Lessing; also Marschner’s Hans Heiling conducted by Ewald Körner (Marco Polo 1992); Fidelio starring Lucia Popp, Adolf Dallapozza, Gundula Janowitz, and René Kollo and conducted by Leonard Bernstein (Deutsche Gramophon, 1978); Der Stein der Weisen, Jane Giering-De Haan and Kevin Deas conducted by Martin Pearlman (Telarc, 1999); and the 1993 EMI recording of Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg conducted by Wolfgang Sawallisch. Stay tuned for one more podcast introducing another kind of opera next week!

Ein morgenländischer Sommernachtstraum: Zaimoglu und Senkel verwandeln die «erste deutsche Oper», Mozarts berühmtes Singspiel, in einen poetischen Abenteuertraum widerstreitender Temperamente und Sitten. «La Scintilla dei Fiati» brilliert mit charaktervollen Interpretationen der vertrauten Melodien. Die Harmoniemusik der Oper «Die Entführung aus dem Serail», die sogenannte Donaueschinger Harmoniemusik, wurde um 1785–87 von Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart selbst erstellt. Die aussergewöhnlich hohe Qualität des mozartischen Arrangements, die Lebendigkeit und Aktualität des Stoffes sowie die Tatsache, dass sie noch nie auf historischen Instrumenten aufgenommen wurde, führte zur Entstehung dieses Hörspiels und der Neueinspielung der Musik durch «La Scintilla dei Fiati». Das Libretto von 1782 wurde 2014/2015 von Feridun Zaimoglu zusammen mit Günter Senkel neu geschrieben. Es bleibt im Wesentlichen der Handlung und den auftretenden Figuren der Oper treu, trägt aber nun deutlich eine neue künstlerische Handschrift. Neben der bildkräftigen Sprache Zaimoglus & Senkels wurden die Figuren stärker psychologisch unterfüttert, die Handlungen szenisch konkretisiert und die Komik des Ganzen stärker herausgearbeitet. Mozart hätte seine Freude gehabt. Mit: Aaron Hitz (Fürst Selim Bassa), Juliane Lang (Konstanze, Edelfrau), Lotti Happle (Blonde, englische Zofe), Sebastian Schneider (Belmonte, spanischer Edelmann), André Willmund (Pedrillo, gefangener Diener des Belmonte), Jaap Achterberg (Osmin, Aufseher über das Landhaus des fürstlichen Palastes), Dirk Glodde (Schiffer Klaas/eine Wache) Komposition: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Musik: La Scintilla dei Fiati - Musikalische Leitung: Philipp Mahrenholz - Tontechnik - Musikaufnahmen: Andreas Werner - Tontechnik Hörspiel: Tom Willen - Regie: Susanne Janson - Produktion: SRF 2016 - Dauer: 56'

The Magic Flute, K. 620, is an opera in two acts by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart to a German libretto by Emanuel Schikaneder. The work is in the form of a Singspiel, a popular form that included both singing and spoken dialogue. The work was premiered on 30 September 1791 at Schikaneder's theatre, the Freihaus-Theater auf der Wieden in Vienna, just two months before the composer's premature death.

Der Starkbieranstich auf dem Münchner Nockherberg wird jedes Jahr mit Spannung erwartet. Am Tag nach der letzten Fastenpredigt von Luise Kinseher und dem Singspiel "Die Glorreiche 7" sprechen Conny Glogger und Michael Strassmann über die Höhepunkte der Veranstaltung.

In Italien steht am kommenden Sonntag die Parlamentswahl an. Welches Ergebnis darf man von einem Wahlkampf erwarten, der sich vor allem um die Ausrichtung der italienischen Flüchtlingspolitik gedreht hat? Und wie stehen die Chancen für die einzelnen Kandidaten? Neben dem ehemaligen Ministerpräsidenten Matteo Renzi, der für die italienischen Sozialdemokraten kandidiert, und der europaskeptischen Partei Fünf-Sterne-Bewegung mit Spitzenkandidat Luigi Di Maio treten mit Fratelli d'Italia, Forza Italia und der Lega Nord drei Rechtsparteien als Mitte-rechts-Koalition an. Ein Drittel der Wahlberechtigten ist aktuellen Umfragen zufolge jedoch noch unentschieden, wem sie ihre Stimme geben sollen. Steffen Dobbert arbeitet als Redakteur für Politik, Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft bei ZEIT ONLINE und ordnet im Gespräch ein, wie die Wahl in Italien ausgehen könnte – und was das für den Rest Europas bedeutet. 200 Überstunden und keine Zeit für eine Mittagspause – klingt nicht nach einem sonderlich attraktiven Job? Die Arbeitsbedingungen für Pflegefachkräfte im Krankenhaus sind seit Jahren schlecht, aber grundlegende Verbesserungen bleiben bisher aus. Mittlerweile herrscht in elf deutschen Bundesländern ein Fachkräftemangel in der Krankenpflege. 3.000 Pflegerinnen und Pfleger haben mit ZEIT ONLINE und dem ARD-Fernsehmagazin Report Mainz über die Belastungen im Rahmen ihrer Arbeit gesprochen. Kai Biermann ist ZEIT-ONLINE-Redakteur im Investigativressort und erklärt im Podcast, wie der Mangel an Pflegekräften die Patientenversorgung einschränkt und ob der neue Koalitionsvertrag Abhilfe schafft. Außerdem: In München findet der traditionelle Starkbieranstich mit Singspiel auf dem Nockherberg statt. Die Hauptrolle werden zwei Herren aus der CSU spielen – ob sie wollen oder nicht.

Wer kam überhaupt auf die lustige Idee, Texte zu singen und dann Opern daraus zu machen, fragt sich Kater Fidelio? Warum heißt ein Singspiel nicht Oper? Opernsängerin Eleonore Marguerre erklärt ihm, dass Ordnung auch bei Barock-Komponisten im 16. Jahrhundert sein musste und man Händel nicht essen kann.

Meist amüsantes Bühnenwerk mit gesungenem und gesprochenem Text.

In the final year of his life, Mozart composed his piano variations on the aria Ein Weib ist das herrlichste Ding – “A Wife Is the Most Glorious Thing” – from a Singspiel by his friend the singer and composer Benedikt Schack.

"La foule prend plaisir au spectacle, mais les initiés comprennent le message" (Goethe à propos de La Flûte Enchantée). Cet opéra dont la première eut lieu en septembre 1791 forme, avec la Clémence de Titus et le Requiem, la trilogie des dernières oeuvres de Mozart (mort en décembre 1791). Ce "Singspiel" populaire, présenté dans le cadre d'un théâtre des faubourgs de Vienne pouvant accueillir plus de mille spectateurs, a été conçu comme une oeuvre à la fois populaire et initiatique. Mozart, membre de la franc-maçonnerie depuis 1784, y célèbre le triomphe du bien et la noblesse des sentiments humains venant couronner la traversée des épreuves de la vie... Cet opéra sur la quête de l'amour et de la sagesse pose en particulier la question de l'"oeuvre testamentaire". Jérôme Cohen, spécialiste d'innovation sociale et culturelle, est entrepreneur et consultant, chanteur et metteur en scène. Il a notamment co-fondé la compagnie Un Bruit qui court.
