1892 opera by Jules Massenet

L'effet Werther (tiré d'un roman de Goethe paru en 1774), est un phénomène qui décrit comment la mort médiatisée d'un personnage ou d'une célébrité peut en entraîner d'autres. Marilyn Monroe, Dalida, Kurt Cobain, Robin Williams… Après chacun de ces décès très couverts par les médias, les études montrent que le taux de suicide augmente en moyenne de 13 %. Mais il existe un effet inverse, moins connu et pourtant tout aussi puissant : l'effet Papageno. En quoi consiste cet effet ? Cela veut-il dire qu'il ne faut pas parler de suicide dans les médias ? Écoutez la suite de cet épisode de "Maintenant Vous Savez". Un podcast Bababam Originals, écrit et réalisé par Laura Taouchanov. À écouter aussi : En quoi le suicide forcé est-il une forme de féminicide ? Qu'est-ce que l'effet Werther ? Comment le papier toilette permet-il de lutter contre le suicide au Japon ?

Send us Fan MailTGTPTU's olds take a break from handing out shiny nickels and Werther's Originals warm from their pockets and yelling at clouds to join Gen Z cohosts Thomas and Jack for the latter's third pick from Ron Howard, the child star turned hack director's big studio, Industrial Light & Magic, four-quadrant blockbuster COCOON (1985). Chosen due to nightmares it'd given to, and an insane plot retelling by, Jack's friend, this first-time watch for him is remembered fondly as a family outing and rewatch by Gen X cohosts Ken and Ryan. That friend's plot summary of extraterrestrials passing in human skinsuits abducting retirement home residents after seducing them with youthful lives of breakdancing and sexual congress does sound terrifying, but the film filters much of this through an all-star cast of Golden Age Hollywood actors (including this film's Oscar-winning Best Supporting Actor Don Ameche and his four-out-of-four-star gams) and the youthful innocence of child actor Barret Oliver from The NeverEnding Story (1984) and the titular Daryl in D.A.R.Y.L. (1985). The flick also has a mid-twenties Steve Guttenberg in short shorts. Who likes the Gute in short shorts? We like the Gute in short shorts. Exclusive to listeners of this episode, Ryan reveals the location of Atlantis; Thomas considers sex as an and/or with elderly person(s); Jack reveals his childhood-trauma-by-proxy; and Ken is unimpressed by the chase scenes but very into Gwen Verdon's legs. Meanwhile, John Ritter's testicle enters the chat. This episode is, to borrow a phrase, “blue steel; a cat couldn't scratch it.” THEME SONG BY: WEIRD A.I.Email: thegoodthepodandtheugly@gmail.comFacebook: https://m.facebook.com/TGTPTUInstagram: https://instagram.com/thegoodthepodandtheugly?igshid=um92md09kjg0Bluesky: @goodpodugly.bsky.socialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6mI2plrgJu-TB95bbJCW-gLetterboxd (follow us!):Podcast: goodpoduglyKen: Ken KoralRyan: Ryan Tobias
Jim Shannon and Todd Ritter welcome back two familiar faces to the corner of Rick House in Frankfort: Diane Strong, the driving force behind the Bourbon on the Banks Festival, and Bo Cumberland, the festival's videographer and distillery film maker. Together they settle in for a relaxed preview of the 2026 Bourbon on the Banks Festival — now in its seventh year — touching on new events, expanded programming, sold-out tickets, and the evolution of the single barrel program that has become one of the festival's most celebrated features. On the Tasting Mat: - James E. Pepper 1776 Single Barrel Bourbon (Bourbon on the Banks 2025 Pick): A barrel selected the prior year by Jim, Todd, and Bo at James E. Pepper Distillery in Lexington. Clocking in at 109.4 proof, this single barrel pours with rich aromas of cherry cola, leather, and a subtle barrel funk. The palate delivers a lush butterscotch sweetness — evoking Werther's Original hard candies — balanced by a satisfying peppery bite on the mid-palate. The finish is long, warm, and refuses to fade. A confidently balanced cask-strength pick available at the festival for around $60–65. *(00:01:54)* - Jeptha Creed Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Single Barrel Reserve (Bourbon on the Banks 2025 Pick): A four-grain bourbon — built on the distillery's heirloom Bloody Butcher corn alongside wheat, malted barley, and rye — bottled at 119.52 proof from Warehouse B after seven years and one month of aging. The nose opens with intriguing complexity, revealing sweet cinnamon, a whisper of root beer, and a hint of fresh strawberry. The palate is full-powered and richly flavored, landing on buttered cinnamon pancakes with a wave of deep caramel. A distinctive expression that showcases just how compelling Jeptha Creed's long-aged releases have become. *(00:20:05)* On the Tasting Mat: Beyond the pours, the crew digs deep into everything Bourbon on the Banks 2026 has to offer: a sold-out Bourbon Bell River Tour with Ingram Distillery, the returning Whiskey Thief Kickoff Party (barrel burning included), a free family-friendly Friday night on the lawn with circus performers and a mermaid, the Culinary Bourbon Geek class with Peggy Noe Stevens now pushed to 2 p.m., a Friday VIP Reception and Auction sponsored by Larkin Bourbon, a Saturday morning brunch at Cypress and Oak, expanded single barrel picks from eleven distilleries including Angel's Envy, Pursuit Spirits, Jeptha Creed, Jackson Purchase, Boondocks, and others, and an after-party headlined by Creekwater with bluegrass openers Hancock and Schaus. Twilight tickets for the October 3rd main event are still available at bourbononthebanks.org. Be sure to visit thebourbonroad.com

The Budget is always a fizzer in the sense that most of it is announced days in advance. There are a few sweeteners on the day, but this time, unless there's a rabbit about to be yanked from a hat, even they might be more Werther's Original than chocolate cake. The best time to read about the Budget is always the following Monday – that's when you get the real juice. All the cuts that pundits missed on the day become clear once the dust has settled. This Budget is one of many that's seen Nicola Willis spending more than Grant Robertson did. The surplus has been pushed out more times than you can shake a stick at. It's meant to be 2030. Nicola has no choice but to honour that. What she should do is come out today and tell us we're going to get there early, otherwise what has all 'cutting', relative term by the way, been for? Capital spending will be the aim of the game. Not all spending is bad, of course, handouts and made-up ministries? Not great. Roads and hospitals? Good. We're up over 40% of debt to GDP, and many people argue we can and should spend more. And yes, we can, and yes, we probably should. Not on day-to-day stuff – that's dumb. We are not America. We are not Europe. We don't have huge domestic demand and are quite prone to earthquakes and weather events. Any spending we do must be careful and calculated because let's be honest, our economy is more fragile to shocks, both at home and abroad. Which is why the surplus keeps getting pushed out. Which is why we need to unshackle ourselves from a structural deficit, and the sooner we can do that, the better off we'll be. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Alors, il vaut quoi le dernier Foenkinos ? Grâce à des textes courts, souvent comiques et philosophiques à la fois, Foenkinos est devenu le chouchou des Français, et il revient cette année avec Je suis drôle, une réflexion sur le succès, l'art, et l'humour, des thèmes qu'il connaît bien soit dit en passant.

Do you ever feel frustrated about work dominating your life? Maybe in your free time, you try to make up for that by enjoying yourself and having a busy social life. You go to the cinema, fit in a workout and so on. But these activities sometimes end up putting more pressure on you than the pleasure you get out of them. What if I told you you could have a thoroughly satisfying evening, without it needing to be productive at all? Over on Tiktok, a concept called “soft evenings” has emerged to combat society's obsession with hyperproductivity and hustle culture. What does it involve? How do I get started then? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions! To listen to the last episodes, you can click here: What is Hugh Jackman's 85% rule? What is burnout? What is the Werther effect?

Maya and Amy open the show asking: Tiger Woods, why don't you get a driver?!?!? On to the Miami Open. The ladies stay in a new place. Maya is naive about hotel stairwell treasures. Walking down a Florida street is always an adventure. The ladies buy the perfect amount of vacation groceries, and if you have ever been on vacation, you know how hard this is. Maya makes the best breakfast ever. The Miami Open DID NOT DISAPPOINT. Amy and Maya look for the good swag. No, they did not get the $100 hot dog. You are talking to hot dog purists. Don't waste your Wagyu on a hot dog. The ladies have their amazing seats again next to the player's box with coaches and family. Hailey Baptist is sitting a few seats away. First match: Jannik Sinner vs. Frances Tiafoe. Sinner's forehands are the hardest a human can hit anything. Seeing Martina Navratilova causes Amy an injury. Coco Gauff wears a hat? Martina, Cocoa, Big Foe, and Sinner! The Uber home was a “premium experience” filled with war movie explosions, machine gun fire, and Werther's Originals. The gals also get “back in the tank”. If you know, you know. The best product came from two nerds who don't have girlfriends, but they're pretty sure if they did, said girlfriends would want to shower with them. Amy and Maya have a great rooftop dinner starring an amazing Euro-trash DJ and a tiny, angry man. Best trip ever!
Renato Pettoello"Il giovane Goethe"Ernst CassirerMorcelliana Editricewww.morcelliana.netIn fuga dalla Germania nazista, Ernst Cassirer trova riparo in Svezia e lì, all'Università di Göteborg, tra il 1940 e il 1941, realizza il sogno di tenere un corso su Goethe. Nelle lezioni qui proposte, rinuncia allo sguardo del filosofo e del filologo, per condurre chi ascolta alla scoperta di Goethe uomo e artista, con luci e ombre, lasciando parlare il più possibile le sue opere: Götz von Berlichingen, I dolori del giovane Werther e la prima stesura del Faust, le poesie, gli scritti autobiografici e scientifici, le lettere e i diari. Ripercorrendo l'evoluzione della personalità di Goethe fino ai ventisei anni, le sue esperienze di vita e il modo in cui queste hanno trovato espressione in letteratura, Cassirer svela il legame profondo che sente con un genio la cui grandezza non è sminuita dal suo essere, prima di tutto, uomo. Così, di fronte alle nubi che si addensano sul futuro, grazie a Goethe egli sente lontani «il peso e la cupa oppressione dell'esistenza» e si rischiara «il buio in noi e attorno a noi».Ernst Cassirer (1874-1945) è stato uno dei maggiori filosofi del Novecento. Tra le sue opere nel catalogo Morcelliana ricordiamo: Goethe e il mondo storico. Tre saggi (2025 2ed.); Descartes. Dottrina, personalità, impatto (2024); Natura e filosofia in Descartes, Leibniz e Spinoza. Lezioni e conferenze 1933-1937 (2023); Il concetto di sostanza e il concetto di funzione (2018).Renato Pettoello, ordinario di Storia della filosofia all'Università di Milano, per Scholé ha pubblicato (con N. Moro) Dizionarietto di tedesco per filosofi (20182) e curato l'edizione di I. Kant, Prolegomeni ad ogni futura metafisica che possa presentarsi come scienza (2018). Presso Morcelliana ha curato la traduzione di Kant spiegato a Napoleone (2019) di Ch. de Villers e di opere di Cassirer, Simmel, Kroner e Gilson.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/
Anyone expecting a lolly scramble from the government today is going to be disappointed. At best, one or two old Werther's Originals. As we've been talking about for the last few weeks, this government can't, politically, splash cash when oil's forcing inflation up. The $60 billion borrowed and spent during the pandemic, half not actually on COVID expenses, was fuel on the fire to an already raging inflation inferno. The Reserve Bank and government were both blowing into the same sail. It got us up on the foils for a while but ultimately just delayed the pain we're now still feeling. The new Governor, imported from Sweeden, will give a key speech later this morning after the market opens with a hint of how they'll react to the latest international catastrophe to reach our shores. Any whiff of central government is planning to borrow and spend to cushion the blow would complicate her job. The reality is, when the shite hits the fan, things get messy. Somebody has to pay. There is no free ride, no free bus. No free train. If we don't pay today, we'll pay tomorrow. And let's not forget, we're now officially on notice from at least one of the big rating agencies. We need to be cutting, not borrowing. Balancing the books, not setting them in fire. Again. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
According to the government, air pollution is the “largest environmental risk to public health”, and accounts for between 28,000 and 36,000 deaths each year. But did you know that the air you breathe might be impacting not only your physical health but also your mental well-being? It's the largest environmental risk to public health because harmful pollutants like fine particulate matter, ammonia and nitrogen dioxide get into our bodies, affecting the eyes, nose and throat, heart and blood vessels and the respiratory system. But there are also risks regarding our mental health. A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association in February 2023 reported on the link between air pollution and psychological disorders. What did the study find? Who can be affected by air pollution? And how can we protect ourselves then? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Ci sono momenti della storia in cui qualcosa si spezza — e non si spezza nelle istituzioni, nei trattati, nelle leggi: si spezza dentro l'uomo, a partire dal momento in cui l'Europa scopre che la ragione, da sola, non basta più, che esiste un luogo più profondo — il cuore — in cui si decidono il destino individuale e quello dei popoli.Non è un semplice passaggio letterario. È una mutazione spirituale.Con I dolori del giovane Werther e con Le ultime lettere di Jacopo Ortis entra in scena un giovane che non accetta il compromesso, che non sa vivere “umanamente”, cioè moderatamente; che non tollera l'ipocrisia del decoro, la prudenza calcolata, la misura borghese. È l'eroe romantico: fragile e assoluto, generoso e iracondo, assetato d'infinito e incapace di adattarsi. Un uomo che sente di essere nato per “alte e nobili cose”, ma che la storia condanna all'angustia, all'esilio, alla sconfitta.Attorno a lui si apre la Natura — non come sfondo, ma come rivelazione. Davanti ai paesaggi di Caspar David Friedrich, l'uomo contempla l'infinito e vi si specchia. Il Sublime non è più una categoria estetica: è un'esperienza esistenziale. L'universo intero può raccogliersi nell'anima, e l'anima può tremare davanti all'ignoto.Poi l'amore. Non sentimento regolato dall'etichetta, ma assoluto che divinizza e consuma. Dalla disperazione di Werther al sacrificio di Violetta nella La traviata — nata dalla Marguerite del romanzo La signora delle camelie —, l'amore diventa forza che eleva e distrugge, che chiede tutto, che non ammette mezze misure. Amare fino a morire. O trasformare la morte in sigillo di autenticità.

Episode Description: What does it take to turn a scandal into a comeback?
Interpreten: Guilmette, Bouchard-Lesieur, Henric, Dolié, Orchestre de l'Opéra Normandie Rouen, Dumoussaud Label: Palazzetto Bru Zane EAN: 8055776010243 Zum Glück gibt es immer wieder Vereinigungen, Stiftungen, Labels etc. die es sich zur Aufgabe gemacht haben, ein bestimmtes Repertoire wieder erlebbar und wieder hörbar zu machen. Palazzetto Bru Zane kümmert sich z.B. vorbildlich um das französische Repertoire zwischen 1780 und 1920, und das nicht nur als Zeitzeugnis und Momentaufnahme, sondern auf allerhöchstem künstlerischem Niveau. Auch bei Jules Massenet, wie Michael Gmasz berichtet. Wer Jules Massenet bisher ausschließlich als Opernkomponisten wahrgenommen hat, der hat einiges versäumt. Wobei ich dazusagen muss, die Wiederentdeckung seiner Orchesterlieder verdanken wir ausschließlich Palazzeto Bru Zane bzw. Bru Zane, dem Zentrum der Französischen romantischen Musik, angesiedelt in einem alten Palazzo in Venedig. Bis vor wenigen Jahren spielte diese Musik keinerlei Rolle, erst durch die Erforschung wurden viele dieser Werke erst wieder spiel- und somit hörbar gemacht. Kein Wunder, dass von den 24 hier aufgenommenen Stücken, gleich 23 als Weltersteinspielungen zu erleben sind. Mit dieser CD ist die Gesamtaufnahme sämtlicher Orchesterlieder von Massenet auch abgeschlossen. Sopranistin Hélène Guilmette, Mezzosopranistin Marie-Andrée Bouchard-Lesieur, der Tenor Julien Henric sowie der Bariton Thomas Dolié singen in Begleitung des Opernorchesters aus Rouen, dirigiert von Pierre Dumoussaud. Große Stimmen, die in der französischen Musik hörbar beheimatet sind. Hier erklingt Musik voller Lyrismus, Eleganz, Sinnlichkeit und dramatischer Effektivität, fein orchestriert, mit reichlich Platz für die jeweiligen Sängerinnen und Sänger. Und soll der legendäre Joseph Hellmesberger bei der Uraufführung des Werther 1882 in Wien gesagt haben, „Bei der Oper von Massenet is a Masse net von Massenet“, so ist es hier originelle und originäre Musik aus seiner Feder, durchaus den zeitweiligen Moden entsprechend.

In the second part of this series, we'll examine how it is that Goethe came to his conception of the Daemonic, involved as it is with Spinoza's pantheism. Goethe's introduction to Spinoza was largely through Herder, and his friendship with Herder he described as one of the most important in his entire life. We'll consider Herder's personality and some of the most important aspects of Herder's worldview, as well as the use of the term "daemonic" as Herder received it from his mentor, the "Magus of the North", Hamann. In the latter half of the episode, we'll look at the specifics of how Goethe describes the Daemonic in Dichtung und Wahrheit and in Conversations with Goethe, in which he describes it as a force that pushes against all limits and manifests in prodigious human beings. We'll relate the idea to Werther, Faust, and consider some of Goethe's real-world examples of it.

You may know Hugh Jackman as the star of X-Men, The Greatest Showman, and Les Misérables, but did you know that he has a secret to success that involves working less, not more? That's right, Hugh Jackman follows the 85% rule, an unofficial guide to life that says we should try hard at things, but not too hard. In other words, we should aim to work at 85% of our capacity, rather than 100%. But why would he do that, and does it really work? Does the science back up this claim?

Jim and Todd welcome Pete Barger, co-founder of Southern Distilling Company, to the show for a deep dive into the history and revival of Statesville, North Carolina—once known as the "Liquor Capital of the World". As one of the nation's largest privately owned distilleries, Southern Distilling balances a massive contract distilling operation with their own award-winning Southern Star brand, all while championing a "grain-to-glass" philosophy that supports over 5,000 acres of local farmland. The tasting kicks off with the Southern Star Bottled-in-Bond Straight Rye Whiskey. Crafted with a unique mash bill featuring 51% Abruzzi rye, this expression leans floral and approachable rather than aggressively spicy, offering notes of buttery rye muffin, honeyed tea, and a touch of ginger. Next, the group samples the limited-edition Southern Star Bourbon Finished in Honey Barrels. Sourced from a single barrel exchange with a local apiary, this cask-strength bourbon delivers a rich, creamy profile packed with butterscotch and toasted Werther's Original notes, balancing the natural sweetness of wildflower honey with bold bourbon character. Finally, Pete showcases their innovation with the Southern Star American Single Malt. Unlike many pot-still single malts, this 114.8-proof expression is produced on a continuous column still, resulting in a distinctively American profile bursting with "fruit cup" flavors—greenish banana, juicy fruit, and poached pear—layered over a robust grain-forward base. Throughout the episode, Pete shares fascinating insights into the "science and geometry" of their palletized warehousing, the advantages of continuous distillation for malt, and the distillery's commitment to reviving heritage grains like Abruzzi rye. Be sure to check out our private Facebook group, "The Bourbon Roadies" for a great group of bourbon loving people. You will be welcomed with open arms!
Larry Werther offers a cautiously optimistic outlook on the U.S. economy, highlighting the resilience of the consumer sector despite softening labor markets and elevated stock valuations. He discusses the nuances of a K-shaped economy, where upper-income spending remains robust, while lower and middle-income households face increasing pressure. Werther also delves into the transformative potential of artificial intelligence, acknowledging both its promise and the inevitable market corrections for certain AI stocks, drawing parallels to past tech bubbles.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Send us a textThe label promised berry jam; our glasses screamed butterscotch. We cracked open Great Lakes Brewing's Cookie Exchange milk stout expecting a sweet, fruity holiday twist and instead found caramel, coffee, and a full-on Werther's vibe. After a pre-show feast and one too many smoothie-style pours at a local favorite, we got honest about why pastry stouts can overwhelm a full palate and when a single dessert beer is the right move. Then we reset with Samuel Smith's Winter Welcome Ale—a classic, lightly skunky European-style ale that trades spice overload for clean malt, easy bitterness, and genuine drinkability.Between sips, we share a Rising River shoutout, a golf simulator discovery, and the pre-snow scramble that always hits the week of Thanksgiving. We talk roofs and gutter guards, small-town nights out, and the way winter rituals shape what you drink: a light, balanced ale for game day, a pastry stout for a slow night, and a fruit-forward option when leftovers lean rich. Our ratings are clear, our jokes are warm, and our gratitude is real—because these seasonal beers aren't just flavors; they're part of the moments we remember.If you're stocking up for the holidays, skip the spice bombs that dry out your tongue. Reach for a classic winter ale you can share across the table, and save the cookie stouts for that single slow pour after dessert.

This week is all poetry—our first all-poetry week of the Immersive Humanities project! After struggling through young Werther, I decided I needed to step back and understand Romanticism as a movement. I offer a brief review of the history leading up to Romanticism; after all, most movements are reactions against what precedes them. The printing press and Protestant Reformation blew open European thought, leading to centuries of philosophical upheaval. Empiricists like Bacon and Hume insisted that knowledge must be tested; rationalists like Descartes and Spinoza trusted pure reason. Kant eventually tried to unite both. Their world gave rise to the Enlightenment—and then came the Romantics, pushing back with emotion, imagination, and nature.That's the world our poets wrote in. This week I used Pocket Book of Romantic Poetry and read Blake, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Byron, Shelley, and Keats (skipping Novalis and Hölderlin). I loved some poems, disliked others. Blake's mystical, anti-Christian tone left me cold. Wordsworth's childhood wonder won me over. Coleridge's Rime of the Ancient Mariner shocked me--it's gripping, almost epic. Byron was brilliant, scandalous, and endlessly readable. His Prisoner of Chillon might have been my favorite poem of the week. Shelley felt dreamlike and visionary, while Keats, to me, seemed talented but young. What did the world lose when he died?Reading these poets in their historical context changed everything. They're passionate, experimental, and surprisingly radical—not quaint! We are missing out when we resort to tired anthologies to get to know these poets--something that I didn't expect to feel so strongly about! Paired with Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony and Chopin's preludes, this week was a revelation.LINKTed Gioia/The Honest Broker's 12-Month Immersive Humanities Course (paywalled!)My Amazon Book List (NOT an affiliate link)That cool Medieval Science Book The Genesis of Science by James HannamCONNECTThe complete list of Crack the Book Episodes: https://cheryldrury.substack.com/p/crack-the-book-start-here?r=u3t2rTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/ LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5GpySInw1e8IqNQvXow7Lv?si=9ebd5508daa245bdApple Podcasts -
The Psychology of Self-Injury: Exploring Self-Harm & Mental Health

This week we leave the Middle Ages far behind and land squarely in the emotional whirlwind of Romanticism with Goethe's The Sorrows of Young Werther. Written in 1774 when Goethe was just twenty-five, the novel became what might be the first true worldwide bestseller—so influential that young men across Europe dressed like Werther, and suicides even spiked in imitation of his tragic end.Werther himself is…a lot. His passion for Charlotte—who is engaged, then married, to another man—spirals into obsession. When he realizes life without her is unbearable, he stages an elaborate, melodramatic exit: visiting friends for final goodbyes, embracing Charlotte while they read Ossian together (a scene straight out of Inferno's Francesca and Paolo), and then borrowing her husband's pistols to kill himself. The ending is bleak, as it should be.Goethe's writing is wonderfully accessible, but Werther's self-indulgent emotionalism reveals the contradictions of early Romanticism: exalting nature and feeling while refusing the grounding work of actual life. Still, this novel opens a door into the powerful reaction against Enlightenment rationalism—a door we'll walk through next week with the Romantic poets. Things are about to accelerate.LINKTed Gioia/The Honest Broker's 12-Month Immersive Humanities Course (paywalled!)My Amazon Book List (NOT an affiliate link)CONNECTThe complete list of Crack the Book Episodes: https://cheryldrury.substack.com/p/crack-the-book-start-here?r=u3t2rTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/ LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5GpySInw1e8IqNQvXow7Lv?si=9ebd5508daa245bdApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/crack-the-book/id1749793321 Captivate - https://crackthebook.captivate.fm
Today some real meat and potatoes Italian opera. Oh, wait, perhaps we should call it spaghetti alla bolognese rather than meat and potatoes. So often on the podcast I bring singers to the fore that are not as well known as some of the biggest stars in opera. But today I bring you both Luciano Pavarotti and Mirella Freni, two of the most popular and celebrated Italian opera stars in the history of opera, especially opera in the late twentieth century. As many already know, the two singers both grew up in Modena, where their working-class mothers worked in the same cigar factory; as budding opera singers, they subsequently studied voice with the same teacher in Mantova. They remained lifelong friends and often sang together, especially in La Bohème. In 1980, the two returned to their native Modena where they performed together at the Teatro Comunale di Modena, known since 2021 as the Teatro Comunale Pavarotti-Freni. The concert was conducted by Freni's ex-husband Leone Magiera, also a native of Modena. In this concert, they performed duets from their shared repertoire: Elisir d'amore, Traviata, and L'amico Fritz. They also performed solo arias from La figlia del reggimento and Vespri siciliani (Freni) and Werther and L'africana (Pavarotti). The material is supplemented on today's episode with arias from both singers in contemporaneous live performances at the Arena di Verona. And this entire songfest is topped with the cherry of a live 1965 concert on French television of “O soave fanciulla” in which their joined voices are heard in the first flush of youth. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and author yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

Butterscotch detonates at 114 proof. That's where our Weller Foolproof tasting takes off—one bottle from 2024, another from 2025—and the room splits over oak tannins, finish length, and whether a splash of water makes the magic or mutes it. We bring the community into the glass, reading live notes from listeners while we map out how Buffalo Trace's weeded mashbill underpins both Weller and the Pappy Van Winkle line.We walk through the Weller family tree—Special Reserve, Antique 107, Weller 12, Full Proof, and limited runs like CYPB—and explain how non-chill filtration and barrel entry proof shape texture and flavor. Expect a nose packed with caramel, brown sugar, wafer, and cocoa; a palate that screams Werther's without turning flabby; and a long, assertive finish that some read as leather or tobacco and others as dark chocolate with a bitter edge. Then we test “Knobs on Ice” for a proofed-down look at how dilution shifts oak, softens heat, and tweaks balance.Beyond tasting notes, we dig into the realities of availability. Why Weller vanishes from shelves, how lotteries and border-town stores change the game, and where MSRP actually lands when you get lucky. We close with the Old Louisville Whiskey Company's Barrel Bottle Breakdown scoring: nose, body, taste, and finish—and Weller Foolproof walks away with 15.75 out of 18.

Em Salmo 119.9-16, o Pr. Leandro Peixoto apresenta uma poderosa reflexão sobre como o jovem pode permanecer puro em meio aos desafios da juventude. A mensagem revela que a verdadeira sabedoria e felicidade não estão em seguir o coração, mas em submetê-lo à Palavra de Deus. Com exemplos marcantes da literatura — de Werther, de Goethe, a Bento Santiago, de Machado de Assis — o sermão mostra os perigos de uma vida guiada pelas emoções e prazeres, e contrasta isso com a vida de Davi, que encontrou prazer e direção na lei do Senhor. A pregação destaca que sobreviver espiritualmente à juventude envolve três campos de batalha: intelecto, emoções e vontade — e que a vitória em cada um deles só é possível quando a mente é renovada, o coração é guardado e a vontade é moldada pela Escritura. Uma pregação expositiva fundamentada na teologia reformada, que exorta os jovens (e todos os cristãos) a buscar pureza, prazer e perseverança na Palavra, encontrando nela a verdadeira liberdade e alegria duradoura em Cristo.

More than two years and nearly two hundred episodes ago, I published an episode on the great Italian tenore di grazia Cesare Valletti. Today I revisit his recorded legacy, focusing on his prowess in the French repertoire, both in opera and, rather uncharacteristically for an Italian tenor of the era, mélodie. Not only do I present the complete 1965 LP entitled Cesare Valletti Sings French Art Songs, which was his final release on the RCA Victor label, but I supplement that with two fantabulous death scenes from two of Jules Massenet's most popular operas, Manon (a live 1954 recording pairing Valletti with Victoria de los Angeles at her most memorable), and Werther (a 1962 studio recording of excerpts from the opera featuring Rosalind Elias, the dearly beloved mezzo-soprano of blessed memory.) Valletti once again reveals himself an artist of refined taste, as well as (in the operatic excerpts) a surprisingly powerful and forthright vocal present and (in the song repertoire) an interpreter with superb French diction and exquisite insight into the half-lit atmosphere of the genre.

On 21 July, the opera world lost one of its finest tenors, David Rendall, at the age of 76. Rendall began his career in the mid-seventies as a lyric tenore di grazia specializing in bel canto and in the music of Mozart. His voice expanded and deepened over the years to encompass French roles (Des Grieux, Faust, Werther), 19th century Italian repertoire from Rodolfo to Otello, and finally Wagner roles from Lohengrin to Tristan. This episode explores his origins from his earliest recordings made before he ever considered a career in music, to live operatic recordings made between 1975 and 2006. Rendall's family was a deeply musical one: his wife, Diana Montague, is a legendary mezzo-soprano, and their son Huw Montague Rendall is one of the brightest lights in the present-day operatic firmament. The episode includes Rendall singing song cycles by Britten and Schubert, and operatic rarities by Rossini and Alfano. In all of the music offered, David Rendall's impeccable technique, patrician musicianship, and deep expressive connection to the music are heard to full effect. His memory will surely be a blessing to all who knew, heard, loved, and admired him. Many thanks to Huw for his advice in the preparation of this episode.

[@ 2 min] Alright, this week…Maestro Enrique Mazzola goes Inside the Huddle! The Italian conductor just wrapped up performances of Massenet's "Werther" in Berlin, but his summer season continues stateside with debuts at the Grand Teton and Aspen Music Festivals before returning to Chicago for his *other* little gig. [@ 28 min] And then…in 'Listener Mailbag,' a vocal coach and a sound tech walk into a bar…I mean opera. Let's see what happens as someone experiences their first opera EVER at Santa Fe! [@ 41 min] Plus, in the ‘Two Minute Drill'…Peter Gelb puts his foot in his mouth (legally speaking), and a famous soprano's foundation is being evicted for not paying rent...you have to wait for the drill to find out which soprano. Or scrub through the episode if you're impatient, I'm not your dad. GET YOUR VOICE HEARD operaboxscore.com facebook.com/obschi1 operaboxscore.bsky.social
