Bill Dedman, Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter and New York Times #1 bestselling author of Empty Mansions, shares the extraordinary story of a reclusive copper heiress, the battle over her fortune, and the HBO series adaptation now in development. As an investigative journalist, Bill Dedman has built his career writing stories that change the way we see the world. It was that reporter's instinct—paired with relentless curiosity—that led him to one of the most extraordinary tales of American wealth: the mysterious life of Huguette Clark and the spending of a great American fortune. Had Bill not stumbled onto her story—and brought it to light in Empty Mansions—her final wishes might well have been lost in the legal battle over her $300 million estate. Huguette was the daughter of copper magnate and U.S. senator W.A. Clark, one of the richest men in America. She grew up in dazzling extravagance: the largest home in New York City, with 121 rooms, four art galleries displaying rare art, and a $100,000 pipe organ that filled the halls with music. There was also Bellosguardo, the family's 23-acre estate in Santa Barbara with sweeping views of the Pacific. She traveled to Europe, attended champagne soirées and black-tie balls—it was, by any measure, a life lived in grandeur. And yet, in stark contrast, Huguette later chose seclusion. For decades, Huguette lived reclusively in her Fifth Avenue apartments, surrounded by paintings by Renoir, Degas, and Corot, and by her vast collection of antique dolls—thousands of them, some dressed in custom Dior. She painted portraits, read voraciously, and built elaborate miniature temples by hand, each costing up to $100,000 to make. In her eighties, though still in excellent health, she chose to move into a modest hospital room, where she remained for the next twenty years—her whereabouts unknown even to longtime friends. Meanwhile, her staff kept her mansions in New York, California, and Connecticut just as she left them—waiting, it seemed, for her return. What makes Huguette's story even more remarkable is her quiet generosity to friends, strangers, and staff: $30 million to her nurse, a Stradivarius violin for the nurse's son, a Rolls- Royce for the chauffeur, a Renoir, fine jewels, Christmas cards with $30,000 checks enclosed—among many other gestures that changed the lives of those around her. Her choices were so unusual that distant relatives, left out of her will, seized on Huguette's eccentricities as grounds to question her capacity, sparking a legal battle over her fortune. Was she being manipulated? Was she unwell? Crazy? "Did you hear about the dolls?" Had they been Birkins, she'd be on the pages of Vogue... Bill uncovers a more nuanced truth: a woman of elegance and discretion, a loyal friend and deeply caring person, a trained artist dedicated to her craft. "It takes a while to get close enough to someone's choices so that they start to make sense," he said. That insight runs through Empty Mansions, the New York Times #1 bestseller that continues to captivate readers. A brilliant reporter and storyteller, no one but Bill Dedman could have written this story with such depth and intrigue. Learn more about your ad choices.

The unassuming violinist, donning a baseball cap and T-shirt, set up near Washington D.C.’s L’Enfant Plaza subway station. He moved the bow across the strings, making melodious tunes. But commuters rushed past, oblivious. He played an entire music program with only a handful of people stopping to listen. If the crowd had only known they were rushing past Joshua Bell, one of the greatest virtuosos of our generation who the night before played at the Library of Congress. Bell played several of the most difficult, mesmerizing violin pieces in the world, all on a 1713 Stradivarius worth roughly $3.5 million. It’s easy to be unaware, to miss wonders right in front of us. This was Jacob’s experience as he journeyed to Haran (Genesis 28:10). He stopped and set up camp in a simple spot that seemed like any other, just a place to lay his head for the night. God appeared to him in a midnight dream, however, telling him that his numerous descendants would bless “all peoples on earth” (v. 14). He also assured Jacob that He would “watch over [him] wherever [he] would go” (v. 15). When he awoke, Jacob said, “Surely the Lord is in this place, and I was not aware of it” (v. 16). God is everywhere, “[filling] heaven and earth” (Jeremiah 23:24). He’s present in the most ordinary places. Our invitation is to keep our eyes and ears open, to watch and listen for God.

En 24 horas de RNE nos asomamos a un thriller rodeado de música, con elementos muy realistas y una atmósfera que solo puede crear el arte: El misterio del último Stradivarius, la nueva novela de Alejandro Guillermo Roemmers, poeta, dramaturgo y artista por la paz. En El misterio del último Stradivarius, con prólogo de Mario Vargas Llosa, nos explica el autor, confluyen tres géneros: "novela histórica, un thriller y una novela de objeto". Roemmers cuenta que se documentó muy bien sobre el meticuloso proceso de creación de estos violines tan notables: "Están compuestos de tres maderas diferentes, pero todos tienen una madera especial que es del norte de Italia, del abeto rojo que produce una sonoridad. La tapa posterior es de arce y la parte de las cuerdas, que tiene que ser muy resistente por la tensión que tiene, suele ser de ébano. Cada artesano obtiene un resultado diferente. Cada instrumento tiene un sonido diferente, que muchas veces tiene que ver con la personalidad del luthier que lo que lo hace", añade el escritor.Roemmers describe esta novela como "una aventura" que pasa por épocas de Europa muy turbulentas de los últimos tres siglos: "La invasión napoleónica en Venecia, la peste en Nápoles, el comienzo de la Primera Guerra Mundial, un campo de prisioneros en la Segunda Guerra Mundial... Hay un poquito de todo", cuenta. Una trama que se entrelaza con la de unos investigadores que tratan de desentrañar un crimen desde Paraguay: "Ambas tramas se van acercando hasta coincidir en un momento. Y todo entre la historia real ambientada con la mayor verosimilitud posible. Hay algunos personajes reales y otros de ficción". Entrevista completa en RNE Audio.Escuchar audio

Have you ever rushed past something extraordinary without noticing? That's exactly what happened when Joshua Bell, one of the world's greatest violinists, played his $3.5 million Stradivarius in a Washington DC metro station during rush hour. Out of 1,100 commuters, only six stopped to listen. The children noticed—they tried to stop—but parents hurried them along, focused on schedules and destinations rather than the masterful performance unfolding before them.This fascinating social experiment raises profound questions about our perception. If we can't pause to appreciate world-class music when it's right in front of us, what else are we missing? Today, I challenge you to make a choice: look for and listen to the beautiful things around you. Take a walk somewhere you can appreciate nature. Visit your favorite place—that spot where you experience those "aha" moments of wonder and gratitude. In slowing down and noticing, we connect not just with the world around us but with its Creator. Join me each weekday morning for five minutes that will help you start your day right, with perspective and purpose. What beauty will you notice today?We would love to hear your comments.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal...How many times have we heard these words? Back in 2007, the Washington Post ran an article by Gene Weingarten called “Pearls Before Breakfast”. In it, he chronicles an experiment by the newspaper, in which world-renowned violinist Joshua Bell put on a baseball cap and a t-shirt, and entered the L'Enfant Plaza metro station in Washington DC. Once there, he removed his Stradivarius violin from its case, and began to play. This is the music you're hearing right now. This an artist who has sold out opera houses and played for heads of state, playing a $4 million dollar violin. Of the approximately 1,000 people who walked past, only seven stopped to listen.  And so it is, sometimes, with our national identity as Americans. We are busy, we are desensitized, that it is an act of the will to stop, screen out the noise, and appreciate for a moment just how fundamentally unique and beautiful our country is. And the Declaration of Independence, the founding document of our country, has its own special music. In an effort to listen, I sat down with Brenda Hafera, Assistant Director of the Simon Center for American Studies, here at the Heritage Foundation. —Follow Brenda Hafera at Heritage.org:https://www.heritage.org/staff/brenda-haferaWashington Post Video of the Joshua Bell Experiment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnOPu0_YWhwFull Text of the Declaration of Independence: https://www.archives.gov/founding-docs/declaration-transcriptHave thoughts?

Era una noche de invierno del año 1820 en la ciudad de Londres. Un hombre mal vestido, evidentemente pobre, entró temblando de frío en una tienda que compraba y vendía violines. Debajo del brazo llevaba un bulto. El dueño de la tienda, Arthur Betts, le preguntó: —¿En qué puedo servirle, señor? —Me estoy muriendo de hambre —le contestó el hombre—. ¿Cuánto me ofrece por este viejo violín? Betts tenía ya varios violines viejos, pero por ayudar al hombre hambriento pagó por el violín una guinea, que era una antigua moneda inglesa equivalente a veintiún chelines, es decir, poco más que una libra esterlina. El hombre tomó la moneda de oro y se perdió en las sombras de la noche. Arthur Betts, que era músico y fabricante de violines, tomó el arco y lo pasó sobre las cuerdas del viejo violín. El resultado fue un tono maravilloso que despertó su curiosidad. Así que iluminó con una vela la parte interior del violín y vio allí grabado en la madera el célebre nombre italiano «Antonio Stradivari». Junto al nombre aparecía la fecha «1704». Tan pronto como comprobó que éste era el famoso violín Stradivarius que habían buscado en toda Europa durante los últimos cien años, Betts salió corriendo por la puerta en busca del vendedor, pero el hombre se había esfumado. Posteriormente Betts vendió el violín por quinientas libras, y después de varios intercambios de dueños, en 1886 se vendió por mil doscientas libras, mil veces más del valor que le dio Betts inicialmente. Hay muchas historias de violines perdidos que fueron comprados por irrisorias sumas de dinero, pero esta, al parecer, es la única historia basada en documentos que atestiguan su veracidad. Lo que tiene en común con esas otras historias menos fidedignas es que el dueño no tenía idea del verdadero valor de lo que poseía. Es posible que esta sea una fiel representación de la vida de muchos de los que nos consideramos cristianos. En medio del frío y del hambre espiritual que nos azota, tenemos a nuestra disposición algo muy valioso, lo suficiente como para sacarnos de esa pobreza. Sin embargo, ni se nos ocurre que tenga tanto valor. Al contrario, ese algo no representa más para nosotros que una cura temporal para aliviar nuestras penas. Así que lo menospreciamos, como si lo estuviéramos vendiendo por una monedita, y seguimos padeciendo de hambre y de frío. A pesar de que nos hace falta, no nos valemos de él por no reconocer su valor. No obstante, cada uno de nosotros puede llevar consigo ese tesoro que basta para satisfacer todo lo que jamás pudiera necesitar. Se trata del Señor Jesucristo, el único tesoro que es más que suficiente para sacarnos de la pobreza y la miseria espiritual. Lo cierto es que Cristo no sólo basta para todo, sino que lo es todo.

En el año 1985, un joven violinista llamado Joshua Bell tocó con su Stradivarius en el metro de Washington D.C., disfrazado como un músico callejero. Miles pasaron sin notar quién era. Solo siete personas se detuvieron. Días antes, él había llenado un teatro con entradas de más de $100 cada una. Su música era la misma, pero el ambiente la hizo invisible. Un crítico escribió: “A veces lo más sublime pasa desapercibido por el ruido de la vida”. De la misma manera, la voz de Dios a menudo no se escucha porque estamos demasiado ocupados, distraídos o llenos de ruido interior. El Señor Jesús buscaba lugares apartados para orar. Elías lo oyó en un silbo apacible y aún hoy, Dios sigue hablando... pero pocos se detienen a escuchar. Quizá estás esperando una señal, pero lo que necesitas es silencio. No de Dios, sino tuyo. Apaga el ruido. Haz una pausa. Allí, en lo quieto, hallarás dirección, consuelo y propósito. La Biblia dice en Salmos 46:10: “Estad quietos, y conoced que yo soy Dios...” (RV1960).

In this episode of Journeys of Discovery, Michael Hayman sits down with internationally renowned violinist and author, Min Kym. A child prodigy who found her voice through the violin, Min shares the extraordinary story of her deep connection to music - from growing up in a traditional South Korean home to the devastating theft of her beloved Stradivarius. Min reflects on the pressures of early success, the identity crisis that followed the loss of her violin, and how she ultimately found her way back to music. She and Michael discuss the profound relationship between musician and instrument, the emotional weight of artistry, the reality of perfectionism, and the cathartic process of writing her memoir, Gone: A Girl, a Violin, a Life Unstrung.  Recorded at Cadogan Hall in collaboration with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, this is a conversation about music, talent, and what it takes to begin again. 

Helena Rathbone has long been a central and beloved figure in Australia's musical life. As Principal Violin and sometimes leader of the Australian Chamber Orchestra, she brings both incisive musicianship and deep artistic integrity to everything she touches. She's equally at home leading string ensembles, mentoring young musicians, or stepping into a solo spotlight.In this wide-ranging and warm interview, Helena reflects on her rich musical life as Principal Violin of the ACO and co-director of the upcoming ACO Unleashed tour. She shares stories from her musical upbringing in a singing family, her training in the UK including at the Guildhall School of Music, her experiences with the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, and her decision to move to Australia to join the ACO 30 years ago. She talks about her passion for mentoring young musicians through the ACO's emerging artist programs, her treasured Stradivarius violin, and the emotional significance behind her music choices.Helena Rathbone co-directs the Australian Chamber Orchestra for ACO Unleashed around Australia from June 21 to July 2.

Reaching back to the first season of Clear and Vivid, a replay of the July 2018 episode when the violin virtuoso tells Alan why he likes to talk to his audience as well as play for them; why he plays Bach very differently from Tchaikovsky; and why the first time he played the Stradivarius that was to become his 30 years later, “I thought that I'd died and went to heaven.”

Hai Wonder Kids, kembali dalam renungan anak GKY Mangga besar. Judul renungan hari ini adalah YANG TERBAIK Mari kita membaca Firman Tuhan dariMAZMUR 139: 14Aku bersyukur kepada-Mu oleh karena kejadianku dahsyat dan ajaib; ajaib apa yang Kaubuat, dan jiwaku benar-benar menyadarinya. Wonder Kids, Antonio Stradivari adalah seorang pembuat biola di tahun 1700-an. Nama 'Stradivarius' dalam bahasa Latin berarti 'sempurna.' Antonio berkata bahwa membuat biola yang kurang baik adalah seperti tidak menghormati Allah, karena Allah memberikan talenta khusus kepada Antonio untuk membuat biola.  Allah juga memberi kamu talenta yang unik, yang tidak dimiliki orang lain. Misalnya, kamu bisa menyemangati teman, bermain basket, atau melukis keindahan ciptaan Allah. Ada tugas khusus yang hanya bisa kamu lakukan karena Allah sudah memberi kamu bakat untuk itu. Bayangkan hidup ini seperti orkestra besar. Kamu mendapat alat musik dan lagu untuk dimainkan. Gunakan bakatmu dengan sebaik-baiknya untuk memuliakan Allah."  MARI KITA BERTUMBUH DI DALAM ANUGERAH TUHAN "Wonder Kids, apa bakat yang Allah berikan kepadamu? Kalau kamu belum tahu, coba tanyakan kepada orangtuamu, teman, atau gurumu. Lalu pikirkan bagaimana kamu bisa menggunakan bakatmu untuk memuliakan Allah."  Mari kita berdoa  "Tuhan, terima kasih karena Engkau menciptakanku dengansangat baik dan istimewa. Tolong aku untuk menghargai diriku sendiri dan orang lain. Dalam nama Tuhan Yesus aku berdoa, Amin."  "Wonder Kids, KAMU DICIPTAKAN TUHAN DENGAN SANGAT LUAR BIASA DAN ISTIMEWA. Tuhan Yesus memberkati."

En este PopArt! nos acompañó Alejandro Roemmers - Poeta y escritor argentino. Hablamos del Festival internacional de poesía en Granada España, de su poesía, libros, su reciente obra El misterio del último Stradivarius y su pensamiento literario.

Dans cette comédie intitulée Les Musiciens de Grégory Magne, tout se joue au cœur d'un quatuor réuni pour un concert unique, attendu par les mélomanes du monde entier. Un évènement qui va s'avérer difficile à monter, avec quatre virtuoses aux egos surdimensionnés. Stradivarius est le nom qui fait rêver tous les musiciens. Ceux qui, en tout cas, pratiquent un instrument à cordes. Des violons, des altos ou des violoncelles, fabriqués par Antonio Stradivari dans son atelier de Crémone au XVIIIe siècle. Est-ce le bois dont ils sont faits, ou le souci de la perfection du luthier ? Ce sont en tout cas des instruments exceptionnels et évidemment devenus très rares.Dans le film dont on parle aujourd'hui, Astrid Thompson, la fille d'un multimillionnaire, a réussi à en réunir quatre. Deux violons, un alto et un violoncelle pour les faire jouer ensemble pour un concert unique. C'était le rêve de son père disparu. Et elle veut le réaliser. Mais c'est sans compter sur le caractère des quatre virtuoses choisis pour ce moment exceptionnel, à l'ego bien développé et incapables de travailler ensemble.Le film s'intitule Les Musiciens et il sort aujourd'hui dans les salles en France.

The Rule of Thumb. I like the show where a guy brings a Stradivarius violin that he found in his grandmother's attic and wants a few million dollars for it. So, the shop owner brought in an expert to see if it was authentic. So, the expert arrives, examines the wood and structure, and concludes that... The post Gospel-Homily for Palm Sunday (2025) appeared first on St. Clement Eucharistic Shrine.

Do you ever doubt how rare you are? Consider the Stradivarius. 

Viitorul este alchimia multor lucruri și întâmplări care, aparent, nu au legătură unele cu altele. Există vreo legătură între muzică, agricultură, business, științe grele, curiozități exotice? Da, există. Am invitat astăzi la „Noi venim din viitor” pe un om care le aduce pe toate laolaltă. Este businessman în domeniul agriculturii, compozitor de muzică clasică și pasionat de științele grele care încearcă să ne reveleze alcătuirea intimă a universului nostru.Haideți să le luăm pe rând. Muzica nu este despre note. Muzica este vibrația care trezește în noi versiunea noastră mai bună, ascunsă sub zgura vieții cotidiene. În esența ei, muzica face treaba asta: ne eliberează de zgura pe care am pus-o pe noi și ne deschide ochii către ceea ce e mai bun în noi.Asta a făcut compozitorul Dan Popescu atunci când a compus concertul de muzică clasică „Vântul, Apa și Pământul” (Wind, Water, Earth). A fost interpretat pe scenă de un trio de excepție: Alexandru Tomescu la vioară (și nu una oarecare, ci Stradivarius), Sînziana Mircea la pian și Ștefan Cazacu la violoncel.Am ascultat acest concert și am simțit vraja muzicii, acele momente privilegiate în care devii imponderabil și te conectezi la stele. Da, muzica nu este despre note, ci despre vibrația pe care dialogul lor o produce pe diverse instrumente.Dan Popescu nu doar compune muzică. Omul a studiat electronica și telecomunicațiile și este actualmente un om de afaceri în domeniul agricol. A fondat firma AECTRA AGROCHEMICALS, cu care conectează agricultura românească la viitor.L-am invitat la emisiunea „Noi venim din viitor” pentru a explora împreună alchimia unui om care duce România în viitor prin afaceri și prin muzică. Nu vă ascund că, personal, pe mine m-a lăsat cu gura căscată.În ce privește businessul, mai multe despre ceea ce face puteți afla la adresa: aectra.ro

Violines y violoncelos que llevan el nombre de su Luthier (su creador). No hay quien les iguale; no hay nada que se le asemeje. La perfección estampada en cada curvatura, en cada clavija, en cada puente, tiene la firma de la excelencia. Por muchos años han estado ahí sin que nadie los toque y solo están en el museo del palacio real para ser admirados por su belleza. ¿Pero es acaso el ser observados para lo que fueron creados? Rotundamente no.Hay ocasiones en que, al igual que esos instrumentos, perdiendo de vista el propósito por el cual fuimos creadas. Nos convertimos en piezas de museo, en exhibiciones de aparador, sin sentido y sin misión, sin propósito ni objetivos. Centradas en nosotras mismas, nos perdemos el privilegio de usar nuestras facultades de las cuales hemos sido provistas para alegrar el corazón de otros.Cierto día, la reina Sofía y el rey Juan Carlos I, decidieron hacer vibrar las cuerdas de aquellos instrumentos por tantos años dormidos en sus vitrinas y los mejores músicos fueron traídos al palacio para ejecutarlos. Así lo describe María Eugenia Rincón en su libro Sofía, una mujer: «Y fueron usados y escuchados y vividos, recobrando así su verdadera misión, dejar de ser piezas de museo para sonar en la Sala de Columnas del Palacio de Oriente por primera vez en muchas centurias».Su verdadera misión. Tal frase hizo vibrar mis pensamientos al aceptar que también algunas veces he olvidado mi verdadera misión y paso los días en un aparador. ¿Cuál es tu misión? Eres hija del Rey y estás en su palacio, pero, ¿estás desempeñando el papel que te ha tocado ser? ¿O estás dormida cuál Stradivarius sin emitir para el mundo melodías de gozo?La buena noticia para hoy es que el gran Artista quiere tomarte en sus brazos para hacerte cumplir tu verdadera misión. Ya sea en casa, con tu familia, ya sea en el trabajo, con tus compañeros, sea en la escuela, con tus amigos; todos ellos necesitan oír de ti la música del cielo que emana a través de una vida santificada que precede a la maravillosa armonía que viviremos en la eternidad.

In Los Angeles, a night-time curfew has been imposed in areas impacted by the devastating wildfires, as police warn against looting. Also: a Stradivarius violin heads to auction with an estimated $18m price tag.

Antes y después de cada exposición, hay un trabajo de las galerías que a menudo pasa desapercibido, un trabajo cultural muy tapado por la faceta comercial. Para mostrar ese trabajo, Pedro Marín Boza ha escrito 'Galerías de arte: conceptos, historias y otras particularidades', editado por Cátedra. Está incluido en la colección Básicos de Arte que dirige una autoridad en la materia, Estrella de Diego. Algo que el autor quiere dejar claro desde el comienzo: las galerías de arte no solo venden, no solo cumplen una función comercial, marchante no es el único sinónimo de galerista.Este martes, el Ministerio de Cultura, ha anunciado la compra de Casa Gomis, obra de Antonio Bonet Castellana, por 7 millones 250 mil euros. El anuncio lo hacía el ministro Ernest Urtasun en la propia Casa Gomis, también conocida como La Ricarda, en El Prat de Llobregat, en Barcelona. Una obra singular de la modernidad arquitectónica en España en un paisaje natural. El Ministerio de Cultura hará de Casa Gomis un centro cultural en torno al arte y la naturaleza. El Cuarteto Casals, un prestigioso esemble de música de cámara que el próximo 20 de enero volverá a tocar esta pieza en el Teatro Real de Madrid. Hablamos de un concierto solidario: 'Stradivarius por la Dana' en el que se podrá escuchar el sonido, con sus matices, melodías, del Cuarteto Palatino, los Stradivarius de Patrimonio Nacional que hacía más de 25 años que no salían del Palacio Real.Y nos vamos con Martín Llade que viene con su sesión de música clásica y el disco de Galatea & Acis, 'La Pispersione'.Escuchar audio

In which researchers squabble for centuries about the secret ingredient that made one Cremonese craftsman the greatest musical instrument-maker of all time, and John seasons guitars under a bus. Certificate #36611.

In the 1950s, a schoolteacher named Carleen Hutchins attempted a revolution in how concert violins are made. In this episode, Craig Eley of the Field Noise podcast tells us how this amateur outsider used 18th century science to disrupt the all-male guild tradition of violin luthiers. Would the myth of the never-equaled Stradivarius violin prove to be true or could a science teacher with a woodshop use an old idea to make new violins better than ever? We also learn about the mysterious beauty of Chladni patterns, the 18th century technique of using tiny particles to reveal how sound moves through resonant objects–the key to Hutchins' merger of art and science. In this episode, we hear the voices of: Quincy Whitney, Carleen Hutchins biographer and a former arts reporter for the Boston Globe. Myles Jackson, a professor of the history of science at Princeton. Joseph Curtin, a MacArthur-award winning violin maker. Sam Zygmuntowicz, an extremely renowned violin maker and creator of Strad3D. Carleen Hutchins herself.   You can subscribe to Craig Eley's Field Noise podcast to hear the original version of this story. This episode was edited by Craig Eley and Mack Hagood. Music is by Blue Dot Sessions and Marc Bianchi. The archival interview clips of Carleen Hutchins were provided by filmmaker James Schneider. The interview with Quincy Whitney was recorded by Andrew Parrella at New Hampshire Public Radio. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Strad violin is noted for its tonal qualities and superior craftsmanship. And for its price tag. There are many theories why the Strad sounds so great, from the wood to the lacquer, to the simple fact that Antonio Stradivari was really good at what he did.
