===== MDJ Script/ Top Stories for December 12th Publish Date:  December 12th    Commercial: From the BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Friday, December 12th and Happy Birthday to Frank Sinatra I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Pedestrian safety improvements coming to south Cobb Gateway Marietta CID seeks public input on 12 projects The Georgia Ballet Presents: The Nutcracker Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on milk As well as Shane Delancey the Director of the Christmas Tradition at the Strand Theatre All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  Now here is Shane Delancey the Director of the Christmas Tradition at the Strand Theatre BREAK: THE STRAND STORY 1: Pedestrian safety improvements coming to south Cobb  Cobb County’s making moves to keep pedestrians safer in south Cobb, tackling two big projects: a pedestrian bridge near Factory Shoals Road and new bollards at Mableton Town Square Park. Let’s start with Factory Shoals. That bridge over I-20? Built in 1963, and, well, it shows. No sidewalks, no bike lanes—just a narrow shoulder that’s barely walkable. Commissioner Monique Sheffield said it’s been a problem for years, especially for folks working at nearby businesses. Now, the county’s greenlit a plan for a new pedestrian bridge alongside the old one, connecting sidewalks on both sides. And Mableton Park? Bollards are coming to stop cars from driving onto the grounds—because, yes, that’s been happening. STORY 2: Gateway Marietta CID seeks public input on 12 projects  The Gateway Marietta CID wants your thoughts—yes, yours—on 12 infrastructure projects they’re planning. These aren’t just random ideas; they’re focused on Franklin Gateway, South Marietta Parkway, and Delk Road. What’s on the table? Everything from streetscapes and trails to bridge replacements and new road connections. Some projects, like the Rottenwood Creek Trail extension ($20 million!) and Franklin Gateway bridge rebuild, are already in motion. Others, like adding Gateway signage or narrowing roads for multiuse trails, are still in the “what do you think?” phase. Your input will help shape what gets prioritized. Got opinions? Take the survey before the master plan wraps next year. Visit engage.publiccoordinate.com/en/project/gateway-marietta-cid-project-prioritization. STORY 3: The Georgia Ballet Presents: The Nutcracker  The Georgia Ballet’s The Nutcracker is back, running Dec. 18–23 at the Jennie T. Anderson Theatre, and it’s bringing all the holiday magic you’d expect—plus a little extra sparkle this year. Here’s the twist: they’ve teamed up with Hamp & Harry’s, a Marietta Square favorite, to add some festive flair. Think Nutcracker-themed cocktails (yes, there’s wine and beer too) in the lobby before the show and during intermission. The ballet itself? Pure enchantment. Tchaikovsky’s iconic score, Clara’s midnight adventure, snowflakes, sweets, and Daet Rodriguez’s choreography. There’s even a Sensory-Friendly performance on Dec. 18—perfect for kids or anyone needing a gentler experience. Tickets start at $23. Don’t wait. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info.  We’ll be right back. Break: Villa Rica Wonderland Train STORY 4: North Cobb Christian student wins statewide essay contest  North Cobb Christian seventh-grader Samille Shy just snagged first place in Georgia for her essay, “What Is Patriotism to Me?”—a big win in the VFW’s Patriot’s Pen contest, which had over 120,000 entries nationwide. Samille’s take on patriotism? It’s about giving back. She wrote about volunteering at a food pantry, helping out at The Humane Society, singing with her school chorus on Veterans Day, and being part of the Sea Cadet Corps. The Georgia VFW loved it, awarding her top honors. Next stop? The regional competition. Not bad for a middle schooler, huh? STORY 5: McEachern rolls into state championship game  Every time McEachern scores, the announcer calls out the updated score. And when the opponent has zero? Oh, the crowd lives for it. They stretch it out—“zerooooooo”—like it’s a victory chant. They’ve had plenty of practice. Over the last two seasons, McEachern’s flag football team has gone 51-2, allowing just 2.9 points per game with 35 shutouts. Monday was no different. The Indians blanked Lithia Springs 19-0, then crushed North Forsyth 33-0 to punch their ticket to the state championship at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Now, McEachern heads to the championship, chasing back-to-back titles. GEORGIA TECH: No. 22 Georgia Tech is heading to the Pop-Tarts Bowl to take on No. 12 BYU on Saturday, Dec. 27, at Camping World Stadium in Orlando. Kickoff’s at 3:30 p.m., and you can catch it live on ABC. This marks Tech’s third straight bowl trip—something they haven’t pulled off since 2012-14—and their 48th all-time, which ranks 14th in college football history. With a 9-3 record, it’s their best regular season since 2014. BYU (11-2) comes in hot, despite two losses to Texas Tech. It’s a ranked-vs.-ranked showdown, Tech’s first since the 2014 Orange Bowl. History’s on their side—they’re 2-0 in this bowl. I'm Keith Ippolito and that’s your MDJ Sports Minute. And now here is Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on milk We’ll have closing comments after this.

The Cincinnati Contemporary Jazz Orchestra also known as CCJO is one of the Midwest's most prominent jazz bands. Founded in 2013, CCJO is currently a 17-piece not-for-profit ensemble dedicated to performing, preserving and teaching jazz as a living art form. More than a decade ago, Rob Parton – the former artistic director of the CCJO – floated the idea of creating a new jazz version of “Nutcracker.”   One might ask why, when in 1960 a couple of jazz giants named Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn created their own jazz version of the work called “The Nutcracker Suite,”which became an iconic and beloved holiday jazz standard.   Moving to the present day, along comes the dynamic duo of CCJO's current artistic director Eric Lechliter and Doug Lillibridge the CCJO board president who were not at all intimidated, and have now created their own jazzy take on the Nutcracker called the “Nutcracker Remix”.   This recording is a 12-track album featuring nine reimagined tracks from the Tchaikovsky ballet and three bonus Christmas-themed tracks sung by powerhouse jazz singer Mandy Gaines.  Eric and Doug have “thrown down the gauntlet” to establish CCJO's place as a standard-bearer for holiday recordings. Here is our conversation, along with snippets of what we are sure will become a holiday classic. 

Get ready to leap, twirl, tiptoe, and imagine as we step into the magical world of Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker! In this special holiday episode, Ms. Elizabeth, Forte the Lion, and our wonderful guest Rosie (age 7!) lead your little ones through three favorite Nutcracker moments with music, movement, imagination, and lots of giggles. Join me for our 6th Annual Nutcracker Challenge, beginning Monday, December 15th. Each day, you'll receive a video from our Nutcracker course with simple, joyful ideas for extending the music and movement fun at home. On the final day, we'll gather for a live Zoom class so we can make music and dance together!

Baseado no filme Os Agentes do Destino (The Adjustment Bureau, 2011), o episódio promove uma profunda reflexão filosófica sobre a dualidade entre destino e livre-arbítrio. Através da história do político David Norris e sua luta para viver um amor que desafia um plano supostamente traçado por misteriosos "agentes do destino", os professores abordam temas fundamentais como Dharma, Karma, intuição, vontade, provas da vida e o papel da consciência nas escolhas humanas. Inspirados por tradições filosóficas do Oriente e do Ocidente, como o estoicismo, o idealismo kantiano e os ensinamentos de Helena Blavatsky, a conversa propõe que o ser humano, ao desenvolver sua consciência, pode deixar de ser um simples cumpridor de ordens e passar a construir o próprio caminho — não em oposição às leis da Natureza, mas em harmonia com elas. A importância da audácia, da perseverança e da busca pelo sentido mais profundo da vida está presente em toda a narrativa do episódio, que convida o ouvinte a olhar para os sinais do cotidiano com mais atenção, e a reconhecer que a liberdade não se resume à ausência de limites, mas à capacidade de responder com sabedoria, justiça e amor aos desafios da existência. Participantes: Paula Poloni, Gustavo Massen e Danilo Gomes Trilha Sonora: Romeu e Julieta, de Tchaikovsky

Christmas repertoire books featuring solo fingerstyle guitar arrangements are great for the holiday season! Whether you simply want to get into the Christmas spirit or you need to perform Christmas tunes at your gigs, there are a number of great Christmas repertoire books. Last year I did a similar multi-book review, but I need to put out an update since I have since gone on a buying spree and purchased 4 more books that I'd been curious about. In this review I will look at the original three books that I reviewed: Hal Leonard's “Fingerpicking Yuletide,” Mark Phillips' “Christmas Carols for Easy Classical Guitar” (Cherry Lane Music Company), and John Hill's “Classical Guitar Christmas Sheet Music” (Hal Leonard) As well as my four new books: Michael Wood's “Echoes of Christmas Past,” Bruce Emery's “Christmas Fingerstyle Guitar,” and Doug Young's “Christmas Carols for Fingerstyle Guitar” AND “A DADGAD Christmas.” And finally I'll mention one book that I don't have, but I can see enough from previews to be able to compare to the other books: Hal Leonard's “Fingerpicking Christmas” To be clear, all books are suitable for either steel string guitar or nylon string classical guitar. I will demonstrate tunes from each book so that you can see and hear what you're getting. Now, whether you are just looking to enjoy playing holiday tunes for yourself, with your family and friends, or on stage, there are several factors to consider. Christmas music is really only acceptable in the month of December, so if you are like me then you'll start preparing in November. As these tunes are kept on the shelf for 10 months of the year, I generally look for the easiest arrangements that still sound as good as possible. I need to be able to whip these into shape in a reasonable amount of time. Perhaps you (unlike myself) are looking for the most incredible sounding arrangements possible, regardless of their difficulty? One of these books in particular fits that bill. Another important factor to consider is whether you are looking to play instrumental arrangements or if you are looking to lead a singalong. Some books are better suited to one or the other. I'm going to try to guide you to the book or books that are best for YOU. Each of these books is valuable in its own way, but one may fit you better. Hal Leonard's “Fingerpicking Yuletide” is the only book out of these that has popular modern/mid-twentieth century tunes like Holly Jolly Christmas, Frosty the Snowman, Jingle Bell Rock, and Let It Snow! Hal Leonard is a publishing giant and has the ability to publish these popular tunes that are protected by copyright. Late-beginner/intermediate. Pretty good arrangements, especially as a starting point. No audio recordings. All of the other books contain traditional Christmas carols like O Come, All Ye Faithful, The First Noel, Jingle Bells, and Silent Night. These are all of the tunes that fall under the realm of public domain, so authors can arrange them without worrying about legal issues or royalties. Out of all of these other books, two books stand out for containing beautiful, yet easy to play arrangements. Wood's “Echoes of Christmas Past” is #1, Phillips' “Christmas Carols for Easy Classical Guitar” is #2. Wood's arrangements are incredibly playable and sound so so good. Very flowing and arpeggiated with a folksy touch. Never too many notes at once, so easy on the hands. No lyrics written into the music, and no audio recordings. Phillips' arrangements also flow very well with lots of arpeggiation and pedaling on the open G string. Definitely has some classical guitar vibes. Once again, no lyrics, but this one does come with a CD for the audio recordings. If you are the type of player who wants a simple arrangement that you can enhance, or if you want to lead a singalong and need a really straightforward arrangement, Bruce Emery's “Christmas Fingerstyle Guitar: Plain and Fancy” and Doug Young's “Christmas Carols for Fingerstyle Guitar” are very valuable books. Each contains the most basic arrangements with block chords harmonizing each melody. These are excellent for beginners and work great as lead sheets for intermediate and advanced players (as a platform from which you can create your own variations). Young's book is a bit easier. Emery's book provides each carol at three difficulty levels. Emery's has lyrics in the music so it works better for singalongs. Young's has lyrics on the opposite page from the music, so usable for singalongs, but not ideal. Both provide audio recordings. These two books are both great gigging books, but I if I had to choose, I'd rather have the Wood or Phillips book at a gig. Doug Young's “A DADGAD Christmas” is unique and incredibly beautiful. Much more difficult in comparison – suitable for intermediate and advanced players. Audio recordings are available on Spotify and make for great listening! Some really satisfying arrangements, but not my first choice of Christmas gig book – I generally want Christmas gig tunes to be on the easier side. Hill's “Classical Guitar: Christmas Sheet Music” contains arrangements that can absolutely work on steel string guitars, but they are written only in treble clef. These arrangements are all a bit more difficult to play, regardless of treble clef vs. TAB, and they don't necessarily sound better than the arrangements of the other books. Many arrangements just feel clunky with difficult fingering. One thing that I do like is the arrangement of Tchaikovsky's “March” from the Nutcracker, which you won't find in any of the other books. If you are a classical guitar teacher, these would definitely be useful to use with your students. No audio recordings. So, to organize all of this information: Only one for mid-twentieth century tunes: Hal Leonard's “Fingerpicking Yuletide” Best for solo instrumental gigging: Wood's “Echoes of Christmas Past” is #1, Phillips' “Christmas Carols for Easy Classical Guitar” is #2.  Hal Leonard's “Fingerpicking Yuletide”is an equally important gigging book for me too just because of its arrangements of popular tunes. Best for singalongs: Hal Leonard's “Fingerpicking Yuletide”, Bruce Emery's “Christmas Fingerstyle Guitar: Plain and Fancy”, and possibly Hal Leonard's “Fingerpicking Christmas” Most beginner friendly: Probably Doug Young's “Christmas Carols for Fingerstyle Guitar” orBruce Emery's “Christmas Fingerstyle Guitar: Plain and Fancy,” then Wood's “Echoes of Christmas Past” is #1, Phillips' “Christmas Carols for Easy Classical Guitar” Most sonorous arrangements: Doug Young's “A DADGAD Christmas” Don't buy: Hill's “Classical Guitar: Christmas Sheet Music” Performance: Holly Jolly Christmas, Frosty the Snowman – Hal Leonard's “Fingerpicking Yuletide” Come, All Ye Faithful – in all books other than Hal Leonard's “Fingerpicking Yuletide” andDoug Young's “A DADGAD Christmas” Silent Night – in all books other than Hal Leonard's “Fingerpicking Yuletide” My own books: Fingerstyle Blues Guitar: An In-Depth Study of the 12-Bar Blues in E Major – Books 1 and 2 are available in paperback or as an eBook through Amazon [https://a.co/d/g7Udsso (Book 1) and https://a.co/d/aDbh4H0 (Book 2)]. The first priority of these books is to quickly get you playing a solo instrumental 12-bar blues, and then to build on it until you can freely improvise or “jam.” You should be up and running by the end of the third chapter, and each following chapter will add icing on the cake.

Learning to arrange melodies will also help your fingerstyle songwriting and your understanding of the inner workings of fingerstyle guitar. My upcoming book, Arranging for Fingerstyle Ukulele, will be published by Mel Bay in 2026.

A Banda de Música Municipal da Estrada celebrará este sábado o Concerto de Santa Icía no Teatro Principal A Estrada prepárase para unha das citas musicais máis destacadas do ano: o Concerto de Santa Icía, que terá lugar este sábado 22 de novembro ás 20:00 horas no Teatro Principal. A actuación, organizada pola Banda de Música Municipal da Estrada e dirixida por Álvaro Varela Ferradáns, reunirá máis de setenta músicos sobre o escenario. O repertorio escollido para esta edición destaca pola súa diversidade estilística e polo equilibrio entre música clásica, contemporánea e creación galega. O público poderá gozar da brillante Overture to “Candide” de Leonard Bernstein, da potente Danza Sinfónica de James Barnes, da obra Pórtico do compositor estradense Antón Alcalde, e da espectacular Abertura 1812 de Tchaikovsky, unha das pezas sinfónicas máis populares e impoñentes do repertorio mundial. O concerto completarase con Pepe Núñez, do compositor Juan Sánchez, que achegará un toque máis cercano e festivo ao programa. A entrada será gratuíta, mais será necesaria a retirada previa de convites no Departamento de Cultura do Concello da Estrada, debido á elevada demanda que adoita acompañar esta celebración. O director da banda, Álvaro Varela, destaca que esta cita é “un momento de encontro coa veciñanza e unha oportunidade para poñer en valor o traballo e a ilusión de todos os músicos”, ao tempo que subliña a importancia de manter viva esta tradición ligada á patroa da música.

What if the thing that makes people laugh at your art is the same thing that makes them listen closer? That's the tension—and the opportunity—at the heart of our conversation with cellist and filmmaker Nick Canellakis, whose viral sketches and serious performances are two sides of one craft. We dig into the roots: a musical family, early piano, and the moment the cello took hold. Then the parallel story: childhood home videos evolving into a full-fledged filmmaking habit, culminating in a Curtis holiday “skit night” that became a real short film. Nick walks us through his modern toolkit—single-camera iPhone shoots, simple mics, thoughtful coverage, and Adobe Premiere—to show how cinematic instincts can thrive without massive crews. The secret isn't chasing trends; it's writing what you know: the anxious, funny, fiercely devoted inner life of musicians.That creative momentum has reshaped his concertizing. Nick shares how a five-minute live sketch can prime an audience for Tchaikovsky or Dvorak without diluting the music's weight. We talk about the Orlando Philharmonic collaboration, the balance between entertainment and excellence, and why he refuses to become “a comedian who plays cello.” The music leads, the comedy widens the door, and both raise the stakes for connection.We also explore his role on the Curtis Institute faculty and a fresh teaching model where students study with multiple mentors, including visits from artists like Gary Hoffman. It's a system built for synthesis: different bowings, fingerings, and philosophies that invite players to own their choices and find their sound. Finally, Nick offers grounded advice for young musicians—swing bigger, don't sell yourself short, and choose paths for love, not fear. If you've wondered how to blend passions without losing rigor, this one maps the territory.If this conversation moved you, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review so more musicians and creators can find it. For more information on Nick Canellakis: https://www.nicholascanellakis.com/biographyYou can also find Nick Canellakis on Instagram and Facebook: @nick.canellakis_cellistIf you are looking for in person/virtual cello lessons, or orchestral repertoire audition coachings, check out www.theCelloSherpa.comFollow us on Facebook, Instagram, Threads & YouTube: @theCelloSherpaFor more information on our sponsor: www.CLEAResources.com

This Day in Legal History: 2000 Presidential ElectionOn November 7, 2000, the United States held a presidential election that would evolve into one of the most significant legal showdowns in American history. The race between Republican George W. Bush and Democrat Al Gore came down to a razor-thin margin in Florida, where just hundreds of votes separated the two candidates. Under state law, the closeness of the vote triggered an automatic machine recount. What followed was a legal and political firestorm involving punch-card ballots, partially detached chads, and controversial ballot designs like the “butterfly ballot,” which some argued led to voter confusion.Litigation quickly erupted in Florida state courts, with both campaigns fighting over recount procedures and ballot validity. Central to the legal debate was whether Florida counties could use different standards in determining voter intent during manual recounts. The legal issues raised tested interpretations of the Equal Protection Clause and the boundaries of state versus federal authority in managing elections. Amid national uncertainty and media frenzy, the dispute reached the U.S. Supreme Court in Bush v. Gore.On December 12, 2000, the Court issued a 5–4 decision halting the Florida recount, citing equal protection concerns due to inconsistent recount standards across counties. The ruling effectively secured Florida's 25 electoral votes for Bush, granting him the presidency despite losing the national popular vote. The decision was criticized by many for its perceived partisanship and for explicitly stating it should not be viewed as precedent. It remains one of the most controversial Supreme Court cases in modern history.The legal battles following the November 7 election exposed deep vulnerabilities in U.S. election infrastructure and prompted calls for reform, including updating voting technology and clarifying recount laws. The case continues to shape discussions around judicial involvement in elections, federalism, and democratic legitimacy.A federal judge is expected to rule on whether President Donald Trump violated the law by deploying National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon to suppress protests. The case, brought by Oregon's attorney general and the City of Portland, challenges the legality of Trump's domestic military deployment under emergency powers, with broader implications for similar plans in other Democrat-led cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, and Washington D.C.U.S. District Judge Karin Immergut, who already issued a temporary order blocking the deployment, will now decide if that block should become permanent. The central legal question is whether the Portland protests legally constituted a rebellion, which is one of the few conditions under which federal troops may be used domestically.The Justice Department argued the deployment was justified, citing violence at a federal immigration facility and describing Portland as “war-ravaged.” Defense attorneys for Oregon and Portland countered that most protests were peaceful and that any violence was limited and contained by local authorities.A Reuters review revealed 32 federal charges tied to the protests, mostly for assaulting federal officers. Only a few resulted in serious charges or potential prison time.This case marks a significant test of civil-military boundaries and the limits of presidential emergency powers, and may ultimately be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court.Judge to rule on Trump's Portland troop deployment | ReutersSean Charles Dunn, a former Justice Department employee, was acquitted of misdemeanor assault by a federal jury in Washington, D.C., after a high-profile trial over an incident in which he threw a sandwich at a Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officer during a 2025 protest. The case, which gained viral attention, stemmed from an August 10 altercation during President Trump's law enforcement surge in the capital. Video footage showed Dunn yelling at officers and then throwing the sandwich, which reportedly splattered mustard and left onion on the officer's equipment.The jury deliberated for about seven hours over two days before finding Dunn not guilty under a statute that criminalizes assaulting or interfering with federal officers. Prosecutors argued the sandwich throw interfered with official duties, while Dunn's defense contended it caused no injury and was symbolic, intended to divert law enforcement from what Dunn feared was an impending immigration raid at a nearby LGBTQ+ nightclub. The CBP officer testified the sandwich left minor messes but no harm, and later received humorous gifts from coworkers related to the incident, which the defense used to downplay its seriousness.The verdict is another setback for the D.C. U.S. Attorney's Office, which has struggled to secure convictions in protest-related cases stemming from Trump enforcement policies. Dunn, who had been fired from the DOJ shortly after the incident, expressed relief and said he believed his actions defended immigrant rights. The presiding judge denied a defense motion to dismiss the case mid-trial but ultimately left the decision to the jury, which rejected the prosecution's claim that the act met the legal threshold for assault.Sandwich Hurler Acquitted of Assault Charge in Viral DC Case (2)U.S. District Judge John McConnell ordered the Trump administration to fully fund SNAP benefits (food aid) for 42 million low-income Americans by Friday, rejecting the administration's plan to issue reduced payments during the ongoing government shutdown. McConnell sharply criticized the administration for what he described as using food aid as a political weapon, and warned of irreparable harm if full benefits were not provided, including hunger and overwhelmed food pantries.The USDA had initially planned to suspend benefits entirely in November due to a lack of congressional funding. It later proposed covering only 65% of benefits using limited contingency funds—an option McConnell said was inadequate and failed to address administrative challenges, such as outdated state computer systems unable to process reduced payments. Some states estimated it would take days to weeks to reconfigure their systems for partial payouts.McConnell said the administration should instead use a $23.35 billion tariff fund—previously used for child nutrition—to fully fund November benefits. His ruling followed a related case in Boston, where another judge also found that the government was legally obligated to use available emergency funds to keep food aid flowing.The Trump administration appealed the ruling and blamed Senate Democrats for blocking a funding bill that would end the shutdown. Vice President J.D. Vance criticized the court's decision as “absurd,” framing it as interference in a political stalemate.Trump administration must fully fund food aid benefits by Friday, US judge rules | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.This week marks the anniversary of the death of Tchaikovsky, who passed away on November 6, 1893 according to the Gregorian calendar—November 7 on the Julian calendar still used in Russia at the time. His death, just days after the premiere of his Sixth Symphony (Pathétique), remains a subject of speculation and sorrow in classical music history. In honor of that date, we're closing the week with one of his earlier and more intimate works: the String Quartet No. 1 in D Major, Op. 11.Composed in 1871, the quartet was Tchaikovsky's first major chamber piece and reflects his growing confidence outside the orchestral realm. Though best known for sweeping ballets and symphonies, here Tchaikovsky demonstrates a delicate sense of form and emotional restraint. The second movement, “Andante cantabile,” became especially beloved—Leo Tolstoy reportedly wept when he heard it performed.Unlike his dramatic orchestral works, this quartet offers a quiet depth, full of folk-inspired melodies and lyrical interplay between the instruments. It balances elegance with melancholy, a quality that would come to define much of his later music. Tchaikovsky himself cherished the piece, often arranging and revisiting it throughout his career. The “Andante cantabile” was even played at his own memorial.As we mark November 7, it's fitting to reflect on the more introspective side of a composer whose life and death still stir emotion more than a century later. Tchaikovsky's String Quartet No. 1 doesn't shout—it speaks gently, as if in conversation, and in that quiet voice, it endures.Without further ado, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's String Quartet No. 1 in D Major, Op. 11 – enjoy!

Hollie McNish has been writing poems about – as she puts it – ‘anything and everything' since she was seven years old. Her work now reaches audiences of millions, through her books, performances and short videos, making her one of the UK's most widely shared poets. In 2017 she won the Ted Hughes Award for her book Nobody Told Me, a collection of poetry and diary entries that she kept from the moment she discovered she was pregnant until her daughter was three. She has published six other collections, including her most recent, Virgin, which explores how one six letter word holds such power. Her choices include music by Telemann, Joseph Bologne Chevalier de Saint-George, Nina Simone and Tchaikovsky. Presenter Michael Berkeley Producer Clare Walker

  This is Michael Clem's Episode!   The Myth, the Magic, The Mysterious! 25% of eddie from ohio, 100% wit, grit, & spit!  So Here we are, back together again.  It's been a long time since we've hung out, so it's good to see you! I give a little update at the top of the episode, but suffice it to say, it's good be back after a long hiatus! Michael Clem is on the show today, with a conversation we had oh, about a year ago (still moving forward, ya'll, just not too swiftly). Mike is a smart, witty, hilarious, thoughtful and supersweet guy who is always up for a good stroll along a mountain path, which is by coincidence the very thing we did! I first knew Mike from eddie from ohio, a folk rock band I fell in love with in the 90s and followed steadily until they hung it up just a few years ago. It was cool to get to know him over the years as a colleague and a friend, and was so excited when he agreed to do this podcast.   You might remember I interviewed former bandmate, Robbie Schaefer, back in 2019, and we get to finally hear Mike's side of the story, as well as lots of great nuggets about life, house shows, songwriting classes and Tchaikovsky. Mike can be found at michaelclem.com, as well as his YouTube Channel, where you can find a video of Mike performing a song we chatted briefly about, Philmore Hall, from his 50 Clementines album, featuring the absolute perfect choice for a trumpet soloist you could find for this great song! Also ones we chatted about:  Number Six Driver & Walk Humbly Son.     Songs played on the episode: Squirrels Roll Rivanna

There are so many great apocryphal stories in the long history of classical music, from the reason Tchaikovsky wrote his Sixth Symphony to what famous composers supposedly said on their deathbeds, to my favorite story: how Joseph Haydn's Symphony No. 96, The Miracle, got its name. Apparently, during the premiere of the symphony, a chandelier fell, but miraculously didn't hit anyone. Hence, The Miracle Symphony. The chandelier did, in fact, fall, but we now know it happened during the premiere of Haydn's Symphony No. 102, which has no nickname. Coincidentally, or perhaps not so coincidentally, the 96th Symphony is performed far more often than the 102nd, likely because of its nickname, even though it's the nickname of the wrong symphony. The Barber Violin Concerto has a great and true story behind it. But before certain information was revealed in 2010, the story everyone knew was quite different. The original version goes like this: Barber had completed the first two movements of his Violin Concerto and sent them to the soloist scheduled to premiere the work, Iso Briselli. Briselli didn't like the concerto, claiming it wasn't virtuosic enough, and asked Barber to write something more difficult. Barber, perhaps with an evil laugh, obliged and returned with the third movement. When Briselli received it, he realized he couldn't play it because of its extreme difficulty and ultimately withdrew from the premiere, which instead went to violinist Albert Spalding. It's a perfect “Icarus flying too close to the sun” kind of classical music story, but as it turns out, it isn't the full story. In 2010, letters were released between Barber, Briselli, and the real instigator in this little operetta, Briselli's violin teacher, Albert Meiff. I'll get into the whole story later, but it's a good one, even if it's not quite as cinematic as the legend. More important than the dispute over its last movement is the remarkable beauty and creativity of this masterful 20th-century concerto. Barber's Violin Concerto is one of my favorite pieces to play and to conduct, and it has charmed audiences ever since its premiere. It features Americana music of a kind only Copland could equal, as well as a heartbreaking oboe solo that might be one of the greatest moments in the history of American classical music. And then there's that pesky third movement, a challenge to every violinist (and orchestra) and a movement that remains controversial for many reasons.

In this engaging episode of Guy Shrink, host Bill Rothman sits down with Zak Vassar, CEO of the Toledo Symphony Orchestra, to explore why men should embrace the symphony as a powerful antidote to the chaos of modern life. Vassar shares his passion for classical music, emphasizing its ability to cut through the noise of "doomscrolling" and digital distractions, offering a visceral and authentic experience that fosters emotional depth and presence. From the transformative power of live performances to their role in enhancing leadership skills, this episode highlights how symphonic music can inspire men to feel deeply, think differently, and reconnect with what truly matters. Vassar recommends three must-hear works—Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, Shostakovich's Fifth Symphony, and Tchaikovsky's Sixth Symphony—for their profound narratives of resilience, defiance, and vulnerability. These pieces, he argues, resonate with the male psyche, addressing struggles like anxiety, professional pressures, and personal identity. By attending a symphony, men can escape the urgency of daily life, tap into a primal connection, and walk away sharper and more grounded. Tune in to discover how the symphony can be a game-changer for mental clarity and emotional strength.   Connect with the Guy Shrink Podcast across all platforms here: https://linktr.ee/guyshrink

No silêncio de um planeta coberto por destroços, emerge uma pequena centelha de vida, humanidade e esperança. É nesse cenário, aparentemente devastado, que a animação Wall-E nos convida a refletir sobre o que nos torna verdadeiramente humanos. Neste episódio do podcast da Nova Acrópole, os professores Paula Poloni e Gustavo Massen, juntamente com Danilo Gomes, exploram os simbolismos dessa obra encantadora, que transcende sua forma infantil para tocar o coração filosófico de cada um. Mais do que uma crítica ao presente, o filme revela uma possibilidade de recomeço — um retorno à Terra não apenas como lugar físico, mas como símbolo de sentido, de lar, de reencontro com as leis da vida e com os outros seres que a compartilham conosco. Participantes: Paula Poloni, Gustavo Massen e Danilo Gomes Trilha Sonora: Valsa das Flores, de Tchaikovsky

Every Russian knows him purely by his patronym. He was the general who triumphed over Napoleon's Grande Armée during the Patriotic War of 1812, not merely restoring national pride but securing national identity. Many Russians consider Field Marshal Mikhail Illarionovich Golenischev-Kutuzov the greatest figure of the 19th century, ahead of Pushkin, Tchaikovsky, even Tolstoy himself. Immediately after his death in 1813, Kutuzov's remains were hurried into the pantheon of heroes. Statues of him rose up across the Russian empire and later the Soviet Union. Over the course of decades and centuries he hardened into legend. As award-winning author Alexander Mikaberidze shows in Kutuzov: A Life in War and Peace (Oxford UP, 2022), Kutuzov's story is far more compelling and complex than the myths that have encased him. An unabashed imperialist who rose in the ranks through his victories over the Turks and the Poles, Kutuzov was also a realist and a skeptic about military power. When the Russians and their allies were routed by the French at Austerlitz he was openly appalled by the incompetence of leadership and the sheer waste of life. Over his long career--marked equally by victory and defeat, embrace and ostracism--he grew to despise those whose concept of war had devolved to mindless attack. Here, at last, is Kutuzov as he really was--a master and survivor of intrigue, moving in and out of royal favor, committed to the welfare of those under his command, and an innovative strategist. When, reluctantly and at the 11th hour, Czar Alexander I called upon him to lead the fight against Napoleon's invading army, Kutuzov accomplished what needed to be done not by a heroic charge but by a strategic retreat. Across the generations, portraits of Kutuzov have ranged from hagiography to dismissal, with Tolstoy's portrait of him in War and Peace perhaps the most indelible of all.

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.”
