Welcome to the third episode of Cov's jams. We'll start with a couple electronica pieces from Arkadii Kaplan: Corporate Success and Chasing the Shadow. I also featured Kaplan in the second episode of Cov's Jams, way back in 2016. I'm glad to be back. Next up are two dubstep selections: Time to Army by Muciojad and Sweet Nothing by K4MMERER. Daniel Bautista's Symphony Number 5 will close out the episode. Daniel Bautista wins at Free, Libre, and Open Source. Not only is he playing public domain Beethoven, but he recorded and mixed the album (in May and June of 2008) on a Gentoo Linux box. Gentoo is how I really learned Linux. He's still releasing libre licensed albums and his newer releases have video recordings which he edits in kdenlive. The first four tracks are under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike license: Corporate Success and Chasing the Shadow by Arkadii Kaplan, Time to Army by Muciojad, and Sweet Nothing by K4MMERER. Daniel Bautista's Symphony Number 5 is licensed Creative Commons Attribution. Thank you for listening to this third episode of Cov's Jams. I hope we can enjoy some new tunes together soon!

The finale of our history of the Ukraine war – for now. As Ukraine's 2023 counter-offensive begins and Putin responds with mere nihilistic destruction, the stakes couldn't be higher. Now Arthur Snell takes stock of the war so far. Ukraine's fight for freedom could preserves the security of Europe's hinterlands, and Russia's failures have shown how NOT to fight a war. But history tells us that the fall of great powers puts global peace in grave peril. How can we prevent chaos in Russia spilling out across Europe and perhaps beyond?

How Putin's war has reshaped the world. In Ep.7: Russia's invasion of Ukraine shattered the rules-based international order. Now the strongmen are scrambling to take advantage. Arthur Snell looks at vast powerplays of Russian information warfare and Chinese influence across Africa and the developing world. Will China see financing Putin's faltering Forever War as a good bet? And what is in store for Putin now that there are Russian resistance units active inside Russia itself?

Telling the history of the war that's reshaping the world. In Ep.6: How Ukrainian bravery and steadfastness amazed the world. These are the human stories of how a country much smaller than Russia was able to stand together under Putin's astonishing onslaught – why a shovel is a soldier's best friend – and how Ukrainian civilians who never thought of themselves as fighters found themselves rushing towards the front line.

Telling the history of the war that's reshaping the world. In Ep.5: As Putin's assault falters and his army degenerates into retreat and atrocity, Russia's self-image as a bulwark against fascism falls into tatters. Arthur Snell looks at the incompetence, factionalism, corruption and failure to plan which created this debacle – how Russia remains obsessed with the Great Patriotic War – how Chechnya and Georgia provided dry runs for Ukraine — and the cocktail of self-destructive impulses, self-pity and authority-worship that still drive ordinary Russians to support the war.

We need to worry about that urge and who gets pulled into its vortex.” – Peter Pomerantsev • “The Russian attitude is, we saved the West from fascism. Now look at these ingrates.” – Jade McGlynn • “Putin was a pretty mediocre director of the FSB.

Telling the history of the war that's reshaping the world. In Ep.4: Putin planned to break Europe's resolve under the twin effects of his assault on Ukraine and his energy war. Instead he bound NATO and the EU together more tightly than ever. This is the story of how Putin's recklessness created the ‘Zeitenwende', the turning point in European history where German illusions about Russian cooperation faded away… and Ukraine became a new bulwark of freedom.  Hear next week's edition of Doomsday Watch: The Ukraine War immediately when you support the podcast on Patreon: http://www.doomsdaywatch.co.uk • “Putin was sending a message to the West.

Warning: The episode contains distressing material. In Ep.3 of our history of Putin's war: As the Russian assault stalls, the Ukrainian city of Mariupol becomes a source of humiliation for Putin. He resolves to obliterate it and its people. War crimes on the scale of WWII ensue.  Arthur Snell talks to journalists, eyewitnesses and campaigners to reveal the enormity of Russian atrocities across Ukraine – the targeting of hospitals and children – and the forced disappearances and murders of Ukrainian resisters. This is the story of how the self-declared “anti-Nazi” Russian army brought mobile crematoria and mass killing into the heart of Ukraine… and what is being done to bring those responsible to justice.

They were screaming, Show this to Putin. He is killing our children.” – Evgeniy Maloletka “Ukraine used attritional defence to bleed – literally bleed – the Russians of men and material.” – Mike Martin “This felt like the V1 and V2 attacks on British civilians during the Second World War.

Telling the history of a war that's reshaping the world. In Ep.2: Russia thought they'd take Kyiv in three days. Instead Putin's invasion has gone down as one of the most infamous fiascos in military history – while Ukraine's courage and fighting skill has stunned the world. How did Putin get it so wrong? And how did Zelenskyy's defiance transform the conflict? Arthur Snell talks to military analysts and historians to unearth the truth about the pivotal first weeks of the war: catastrophe for Russia, glory for Ukraine. Behind the cruelty and monstrous waste a strange question emerges: Did a dysfunctional, shambolic Russia really intend to invade Ukraine at all? Hear next week's edition of Doomsday Watch: The Ukraine War immediately when you support the podcast on Patreon: http://www.doomsdaywatch.co.uk “How did one of the world's great military powers manage to make such a mess of things?” – Arthur Snell “The Russians didn't bring much military equipment. What they did bring was parade uniforms to march through Kyiv when it was all over.” – Peter Caddick-Addams “The Russian FSB spent vast sums of money preparing for the collapse of the Ukrainian Government, which they confidently expected…” – Arthur Snell “ Putin is a very 19th-century figure. He believes that Russia has a birthright to be a great power.“ – Mark Galeotti “The experience of any Russian who lived through the 1990s is that reality can disappear around you at any time. People learned to negotiate chaos.“– Peter Pomerantsev “The central Russian experience is the Great Patriotic War… They think their moral right to dictate to others comes from 1945.” – Jade McGlynn Photograph courtesy Ceng Shou Yi/NurPhoto Incidental music in order of appearance: Gustav Mahler's Symphony Number 5 performed by Jason Weinberger and the WCF Symphony Gustav Mahler's Symphony Number 9 (First Movement) performed by the Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra ‘Thy Resurrection' performed by the Music of Kyiv-Pechersk Monastery ‘The Blessed I Have Already Chosen' by Maksym Berezovsky, performed by Kyiv Chamber Choir Written and presented by Arthur Snell.

Telling the history of a war that's reshaping the world. In Ep.1: How Russia's febrile history, Putin's paranoid resentment and Western complacency led to an historic crime against a peaceful nation, the destruction of the rules-based international order, the largest European land action since the Second World War… and a conflict of unprecedented brutality. In weekly episodes Arthur Snell talks to soldiers, civilians, analysts and journalists to tell the story of the war and capture the enormity of Russia's crimes. This is the first draft of history.

Today I'm speaking with Johan de Meij, a Dutch composer and conductor who has been self-publishing his music ever since the premiere of his symphony number one, based on the Lord of the Rings, which premiered 35 years ago this month and catapulted him to fame within the world of wind orchestra music.  We had a fantastic conversation about Tolkien, creative orchestration, marketing compositions through unique titles, the history of wind orchestra music, what to do with success, and a host of other topics.  His music is distributed through Hal Leonard, and a new edition of the Symphony Number one will be released next month.

As CNS gets underway this weekend in Florida, (August 29-31) featuring Willie Walsh, Director General of IATA, on his first public mission with gravitas after his appointment, I would gladly ask him questions regarding the IATA approach. Starting with Air Cargo, is One Record the totem for which IATA decided to ditch its IATA FIATA program? Was the entire IATA FIATA negotiation just a straddle strategy? Time to celebrate 30 years of the CNS Partnership recalling the people that made the "Partnership" go Meet Francesco Parisi Up Close & Personal When Parisi went into business in 1807 Napoleon was alive and signed a peace treaty with Russia; Ludwig von Beethoven debuted his Symphony Number 4 and Robert Fulton launched his first steamboat on the Hudson River in New York. Today in 2019, the quiet and unassuming Francesco Parisi (third generation) is a constant force for good as former President of FIATA and active builder of global transportation. Sad to report our colleague Steve Prince of Woodstock, Georgia died of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis on Friday August 20, 2021. He was 72 years of age. Steve had served as publisher of Air Cargo World since 1991 and later he spent many years serving with the Board of TIACA promoting and bettering the cause of the air cargo industry. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/geoffrey-arend/support

Have you ever heard symphony number 9? But not just any symphony number 9. I’m talking, of course, about the one by Beethoven. My favorite composer. And this symphony is one of my favorites of his. “But what’s the big … Read the rest The post Symphony number 9 is a favorite of mine appeared first on Tony Funderburk.

When we listen to classical music, some of us might think we hear a story in the melody - but others will not. Some of us might know about the life of the composer and project their biography onto the piece – but others will listen with ears unbiased by context. The problem is that meaning doesn’t actually live anywhere that can be pinpointed in a particular sound or melody. Novels, on the other hand, tell us a story both about the characters within the text, and the music they listen to. So what happens when we read about music in their fiction? Can novels also help us to imagine the story of a tune? Does it change our interpretation of the novel if we already know the song being referred to and ‘hear’ it in our mind as we read? These are difficult and perhaps ultimately unanswerable questions, but Katie Harling-Lee invites you to try in this composition of words and music.

Geraldine is holidaying in Russia. First stop Moscow, then onto St Petersburg and soon a cruise down the Volga. It’s incredibly beautiful but also confronting. Geraldine reminds Eliza that more than half a million people died of hunger in the siege of Leningrad in the Second World War. The holiday has given Geraldine new insights into President Putin and his desire to recreate the country’s past glories. The school year has finished in Beirut. Eliza and her family are well and truly integrated into the Beirut community, but many of their friends are moving. The best part about expat life is meeting new people, the worst part is saying goodbye. Eliza is travelling to France next week and is still pinching herself that the flight is only four hours!

Dmitri Shostakovich wrote his stunning Symphony Number 4 while he was under great scrutiny and his life was in danger in communist Russia. After keeping it hidden for decades, he finally performed it in 1961 after Stalin's reign had ended. It's around that time that Greg heard it for the first time, and for this episode, he and Daniel discuss the symphony's intriguing history at length.
