Musical composition for human voice

In this episode, Phil and JF are joined by Meredith Michael—musicologist, podcaster, and Weird Studies production assistant—for a conversation about animal songs. The phrase is intentionally slippery. Are we talking about songs about animals, or songs by animals? Both, as it turns out. Beginning with three very different human compositions—The Beatles' “Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except Me and My Monkey,” Hovhaness's And God Created the Great Whales, and Björk's “Human Behavior”—the hosts discuss the roles animals play in human music, mythology, and mind. Along the way, they touch on Pink Floyd, the Beatles' trip to India, heroin addiction, the indeterminacy of singing and screaming, the messiness of inter-species communication, the discovery of whale song, the problem of (not) projecting humanness onto animals, the Book of Genesis, and the porous boundary between the human and non-human worlds. All that (and more) for two of the songs! Phil's pick will be explored in a forthcoming episode. Meredith Michael is a PhD candidate in Musicology at the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music. She is working on a dissertation about musical mythologies of outer space in the twentieth century. In her spare time she loves making art of all kinds, going for long walks, making friends with cats, and watching cartoons. Meredith hosts the Cosmophonia podcast with Gabriel Lubell.

There's a lot more historical narrative in today's reading, especially when compared to our first three episodes in 1 Chronicles. David becomes king, he intends to reinstitute the proper worship of God at his tabernacle. When the ark of the covenant almost falls in transit, one man reaches out to grab it, which is not permissible by God's law. The Lord strikes him dead, which both angers and terrifies David. Scared to bring it to Jerusalem, he leaves it in Gath, bringing it to Jerusalem at a later date. We'll also hear a few tales of brave men in battle and their legendary accounts of heroism and valor. These men fought alongside David and were there to help him claim kingship over Israel as the Lord had ordained.1 Chronicles 11 - 1:11 . 1 Chronicles 12 - 8:51 . 1 Chronicles 13 - 16:11 . 1 Chronicles 14 - 18:32 .

This week on The Professional Noticer, we're revisiting one of the most surprising and inspiring episodes in our archive: Songs of the Seven Decisions with Armon J. Newton and Albert Burgos Jr. Armon and Albert—longtime friends who met in South San Francisco—share the story behind their extraordinary collaboration. From childhood passions and winding career paths to the moment they secretly produced an entire album based on The Seven Decisions (before Andy—or anyone—knew it existed!), this conversation is packed with creativity, vision, and heart. You'll hear how their musical journey began, what inspired the project, and why their work continues to resonate today.
We're still working through a list of names, but thankfully things get a little more interesting this week as the lists are broken up by historical accounts and records of what people did and when. As someone who once worked retail and food service, I like the behind-the-scenes look at how the Levites and gatekeepers conducted the daily maintenance of the temple found in today's reading. Later we'll begin The Song of Songs which is about two lovers and their love. It is a book of poetry, symbolism, and innuendo; if you hear something and think, “Does that mean what I think it means?” the answer is probably, “Yup!” 1 Chronicles 8 - 1:10 . 1 Chronicles 9 - 5:07 . 1 Chronicles 10 - 12:27 .

Madonna hat schon einen Namen, der an die Mutter Gottes erinnert und in Songs wie «Like a Prayer» nimmt sie das christliche Motiv wieder auf. Aber auch David Bowie, Leonard Cohen oder Nick Cave, um nur ein paar zu nennen, setzen sich mehr oder weniger ernsthaft mit dem Thema Religion auseinander. In der Sendung «Treffpunkt» gibt SRF-Religionsredaktorin Lea Burger Einblicke, wie und wo sich die Religion und das Christentum im Pop wiederfinden. Und sie redet darüber, dass auch Konzertbesuche ein spirituelles Erlebnis sein können.
Songs include: So In Love by Patti Page, Taking a Chance On Love by Benny Goodman, Dream by the Pied Pipers, For Sentimental Reasons by Nat King Cole and I Wish That I Were Twins by Fats Waller.
TVC 698.6: Singer, songwriter, musician, and recording artist Kiki Ebsen talks to Ed about the tapestry of stories available in The Great American Songbook; how Kiki's lifelong passion for horses led her to start The Healing Equine Ranch, a nonprofit organization whose equine-assisted services integrates yoga philosophy, natural horsemanship principles, and trauma-informed science to create a profound connection between humans and horses; and how Kiki was once nearly strangled to death by the reins of a horse while taking Lee Meriwether's daughters out for a ride. Kiki will perform at the Festival of Arts/Pagent of the Masters in Laguna Beach, CA on Saturday, July 26 and at Southcoast Winery in Temecula, CA on Sunday, Sept. 14.

In Week 3 of Songs For the Road, guest speaker Jason Workman leads us through Psalm 122—a song of gladness and longing for the gathered people of God. As pilgrims ascending to Jerusalem, God's people were reminded that worship isn't just about a place; it's about being built together into a spiritual home. From the earthly Jerusalem to the new Jerusalem, and from the temple built with stones to the temple of God's Spirit within us, we are invited to seek peace, unity, and the good of God's household. This message calls us to love the real church more than our ideal of it, and to look forward to the day when God makes all things new.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.org Connect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!

Mit "Back In Black" haben sich AC/DC 1980 nach dem Tod von Bon Scott zurückgemeldet und Brian Johnson als neuen Sänger der Band vorgestellt. Mit dem Album "Back In Black" und dem neuen Sänger Brian Johnson trauern AC/DC um ihren verstorbenen Frontmann Bon Scott, feiern mit den Songs des Albums aber auch das Leben und den Rock'n'Roll-Lifestyle. Und obwohl AC/DC vor diesem Album gerade erst ihren charismatischen Frontmann verloren hatten, mit dem die australischen Hardrocker damals den Durchbruch geschafft hatten, ist es "Back in Black", das zum (kommerziell) erfolgreichsten Album der Band wurde. Aber nicht nur das – "Back In Black" ist nach Michael Jacksons "Thriller" auch das zweitmeistverkaufte Album aller Zeiten. Über 50 Millionen Einheiten sollen von dem Album über den Ladentisch gegangen sein. Ganz besonders ist bei "Back In Black" natürlich auch die Gitarrenarbeit und der Gitarrensound der beiden Brüder Angus und Malcolm Young. Und was für viele Laien oft ganz einfach wirkt, ist es natürlich nicht. Es geht dabei um ganz viele Feinheiten. Von der Auswahl der unterschiedlichen Gitarren über Verstärker bis hin zur Wahl der Gitarrensaiten von Angus und Malcolm. Alles ist haargenau auf die jeweilige Rolle der beiden Brüder innerhalb der Band abgestimmt. Malcolm macht den Druck und die Power hinten und das bissige und verzerrte, darum kümmert sich Angus. Und diese unterschiedlichen Rollen sind auch im Mix auf dem Album genau aufgeteilt. Und auch beim Songwriting sind die Elemente und auch die Anschlagtechniken von Malcolm und Angus sehr fein aufeinander abgestimmt, erklärt Musikredakteur und Gitarrenexperte Stephan Fahrig im Podcast. Das kommerziell erfolgreichste Hardrockalbum aller Zeiten hat natürlich auch Spuren in der Musikgeschichte hinterlassen – und zwar sehr tiefe, wie Musikredakteurin Katharina Heinius im Podcast erzählt: "Sie (AC/DC) sind das Vorbild vieler, vieler Hardrockbands geworden – auch mit diesem Album. Sie haben auch einen Sound geprägt und sie haben den Sound auch durchgezogen. Wenn jemand fragt: Was ist [...] Hardrock? 100% "Back In Black"!" __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Back In Black" wird im Podcast gesprochen: (23:13) – "Hells Bells"(37:05) – "Shoot To Thrill"(48:45) – "Back In Black"(01:03:12) – "You Shook Me All Night Long"(01:10:44) – "Rock and Roll Ain't Noise Pollution" __________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge: https://1.ard.de/acdc-back-in-black __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

Ein Trio aus dem Ruhrgebiet stellt sich eine altbekannte Frage: Was bedeutet eigentlich Zuhause? Die Antwort für das Trio aus Chris Werner, Christian de Crau und Andy Köckerbauer ist simpel. Natürlich sind es die Menschen, mit denen man sich umgibt! Quasi direkt nach ihrer Gründung haben sie 2014 bereits den Preis des Deutschen Rock & Pop Musikerverbands abgeräumt. Seitdem kamen Touren mit Musiker*innen wie Wincent Weiss oder Glasperlenspiel hinzu sowie viele Fernsehauftritte, zum Beispiel mehrfach in der Serie "Alles was zählt". Mit krassen Streams auf ihren Social-Media-Kanälen und ausverkauften Konzerten, hat sich Kuult eine solide Fan-Base aufgebaut. Ins studioeins kommt Kuult mit Akustik-Format: Mit Cajon und Gitarre statt großem elektronischen Aufwand, präsentiert die Band auf intimere Weise ihre neuen Songs, die dann auf ihrer anstehenden Platte "Fallschirmvertrauen" zu hören sein werden.

Kelefa Sanneh was born in England, and lived in Ghana and Scotland before moving with his parents to the United States in the early 1980s. He was a pop music critic at the New York Times from 2000-2008, and has been a staff writer at the New Yorker since then. His first book, just released on Penguin, is called Major Labels: A History of Popular Music in Seven Genres. The book refracts the entire history of popular music over the past fifty years through the big genres that have defined and dominated it—rock, R&B, country, punk, hip-hop, dance music, and pop—as an art form (actually, a bunch of art forms), as a cultural and economic force, and as a tool that we use to build our identities. Sanneh shows how these genres have been defined by the tension between mainstream and outsider, between authenticity and phoniness, between good and bad, right and wrong. Throughout, race is a powerful touchstone: just as there have always been Black audiences and white audiences, with more or less overlap depending on the moment, there has been Black music and white music, constantly mixing and separating. Sanneh debunks cherished myths, reappraises beloved heroes, and upends familiar ideas of musical greatness, arguing that sometimes, the best popular music isn't transcendent. Songs express our grudges as well as our hopes, and they are motivated by greed as well as idealism; music is a powerful tool for human connection, but also for human antagonism. This is a book about the music everyone loves, the music everyone hates, and the decades-long argument over which is which. Franz Nicolay is a musician and writer living in New York's Hudson Valley. His first book, The Humorless Ladies of Border Control: Touring the Punk Underground from Belgrade to Ulaanbaatar, was named a "Season's Best Travel Book" by The New York Times. Buzzfeed called his second book, Someone Should Pay for Your Pain, "a knockout fiction debut." He teaches at Bard College. Learn more about your ad choices.

Message from Joe Lechner on July 20, 2025
Love is not a sprinter but a marathon runner. The world record in the dead lift is currently over 1,104 pounds! That is strong! But love is stronger--as the Song of Songs says, even stronger than death. God is love. Love endures all things. We see this so clearly in the sufferings, death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ.Support the show
Mass Prep for the Mystic Heart: Sixteenth Sunday in Ordinary TimeMary, Martha, and When the Guest Is GodGospel: Luke 10:38–42This week's Gospel is short, but it holds a holy tension — a quiet drama between activity and intimacy. In this reflection, we pause with Mary at the feet of Jesus, and gently examine what it means to choose the “better part.”Martha is busy, anxious, and overwhelmed — preparing for the Lord, yet missing that He is already present. Mary, on the other hand, does nothing but sit and listen. And Jesus calls her stillness sacred.Together, we reflect on what it means to receive Christ not with hustle, but with stillness. We also look to the Song of Songs for deeper insight into what the Lord desires: not performance, but presence. Not perfection, but proximity.May this help you carry the Gospel with you into Mass — and hear it not just with your ears, but with your heart.

Read OnlineThe Pharisees went out and took counsel against Jesus to put him to death. When Jesus realized this, he withdrew from that place. Many people followed him, and he cured them all, but he warned them not to make him known. Matthew 12:14–16This passage goes on to say that Jesus withdrew to a more deserted place to fulfill the prophecy of Isaiah the Prophet (Isaiah 42:1–4). That prophecy is the first of what is referred to as “The Songs of the Suffering Servant.” In these songs or poems of Isaiah, the Messiah is presented to us as one who would be sent on a mission from God, would suffer injustice for the sake of others, would be rejected, and ultimately be vindicated and exalted. The mission of the Suffering Servant was to bring justice and salvation to all, including to the Gentiles.At that time, the idea of a messianic king was still prominent in the minds of many. They anticipated the coming of a messiah who would be a political leader and would lead the people of Israel out of oppression, making them a free, prosperous and powerful nation. But Jesus acts in the opposite manner. Instead of raising up an army to combat the evil intentions of the Pharisees and to overthrow the Romans, Jesus withdrew from them and invited people to come to Him for healing and to receive His teachings.Jesus perfectly fulfills the prophecy of Isaiah by becoming the Suffering Servant. And because His messianic role was much different than what many people had anticipated, Saint Matthew points us to the Old Testament prophecy of Isaiah as a way of clearly showing that Jesus truly was the promised Messiah. He was just not the form of messiah that many expected. He was One Who was humble and gentle of heart. He was One Who would redeem people by the Blood of His Cross. And He was One Who would extend salvation to all people, not only the people of Israel.One lesson this teaches us is that even today we can have false expectations of God. It is easy for us to set forth our own idea of what God should do and what true justice demands. But we also read in Isaiah, “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, says the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts” (Is. 55:8–9).Just as it must have been difficult for the people of Israel to come to accept the promised Messiah as a servant Who suffers and Who redeems all people through that suffering, so it is often difficult for us to accept our Lord as He is. It is difficult to shed our own ideas of what we want God to do and this is especially difficult when He calls us to share in His own suffering and servanthood. To serve, suffer, sacrifice our lives, and the like can be difficult to accept. But this is the way of our Lord—it is the way of the Suffering Servant of God.Reflect, today, upon your own expectations of God. Do you have a long list of things that you think God should do? Do you pray for that list of your ideas, thinking that if you only ask enough, God will grant your requests? If your requests flow from His perfect will, then praying for them in faith will bring them about. But if they flow more from you and your own ideas of what God should do, then all the prayers in the world will not bring them to be. If this is your struggle, then try to start anew by turning your eyes to the Servant Who Suffers for the salvation of all. Reflect upon the fact that God's thoughts and ways are most often very far above your own thoughts and ways. Try to humble yourself before the Suffering Servant and abandon all ideas that do not flow from His Heart. My Suffering Servant, I thank You for Your suffering and death and for the redemption that flows from Your sacrifice of love. Help me to shed all false expectations that I have of You, dear Lord, so that I will be guided by You and Your mission of salvation alone. Jesus, I trust in You.Image via Pixabay.Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved. Used with permission via RSS feed.

Time stamps: 00:14:24 — Our personal histories with the Fast & Furious franchise 00:30:55 — History segment: The history of the Fast & Furious franchise; director Justin Lin; on the weekend of Fast Five's release, Dwayne Johnson Tweets the news that Osama bin Laden has been killed 00:49:55 — In-depth movie discussion 02:02:15 — Final thoughts and star ratings Laci and Matt hop in a go-fast car and head for Rio de Janeiro to join up with Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel), Brian O'Conner (Paul Walker), and their whole extended family, as they attempt the heist of the century. All while trying to evade federal agent Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson), the deadliest agent you'll find in Hillary Clinton's State Department. We discover how fascinating Vin Diesel is for Laci, who has had startlingly little exposure to the man of the vast empire he controls. We try to figure out what it is he does well… because it's hard to say what it is, there's just something about him. Honestly, that's true for Paul Walker, Jordana Brewster, and Tyrese Gibson as well. It's not that they're captivating actors. They just have a certain quality that you can't help but love. We also get into the history of the Fast & Furious series and the strange journey it took to becoming a Star Wars-level international blockbuster franchise. Next week: Pain & Gain (2013) The Summer of Rock is our summer 2025 miniseries covering the movie career of Dwayne Johnson through nine movies, presented in chronological order. Starting with his attempt at crossing over from the world of wrestling, The Rock's career got off to a bumpy start before finally taking off in the 2010s. But it wasn't long before the bumps returned, and we'll be telling the story for you all summer long! Bonus video: Matt reviews Planet 51 (2009), the bonkers science fiction family film that was Dwayne Johnson's first animated movie: https://youtu.be/-lG6Gnwe1GY?si=0gOccnMr7Pev3PPd Subscribe to our Patreon, Load Bearing Beams: Collector's Edition for $5 a month to get extra episodes! patreon.com/loadbearingbeams Sources: “'Fast Five' Will Transition Franchise From Street Racing To Future Full Of Heist Action” by Nikki Finke | Deadline (2011) - https://bit.ly/4kqBbtm “How Paul Walker nearly quit the ‘Furious' franchise” by Amy Kaufman | Los Angeles Times (2015) - https://lat.ms/4kpmqH6 “The remarkable evolution of the Fast and Furious movie franchise” by Zach Harper | CBS Sports (2015) - https://bit.ly/3IaSYHF Artwork by Laci Roth.

Howlin' Pelle is a joy to be around. As the longtime lead singer for Swedish garage rock legends The Hives, he brings big energy on stage and off. The band are known for their live shows, and their forthcoming new album is one they wrote with a stadium sensibility in mind. So when The Hives returned to Australia for the first time in 10 years, I asked him to choose his blockbuster songs. From AC/DC to Outkast to Billie Eilish, this is a fist pumping, heart filling conversation about music's power.AC/DC - Thunderstruck OutKast - Hey Ya Cyndi Lauper - Girls Just Want To Have FunBillie Eilish - Bad Guy Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
