  • L'italia E L'eurovision Song Contest Un Rinnovato
    La musica unisce l'Europa… e non solo C'è chi la definisce "La Champions League" della musica e in fondo non sbaglia. L'Eurovision è una grande festa, ma soprattutto è un concorso in cui i Paesi d'Europa si sfidano a colpi di note. Tecnicamente, è un concorso fra televisioni, visto che ad organizzarlo è l'EBU (European Broadcasting Union), l'ente che riunisce le tv pubbliche d'Europa e del bacino del Mediterraneo. Noi italiani l'abbiamo a lungo chiamato Eurofestival, i francesi sciovinisti lo chiamano Concours Eurovision de la Chanson, l'abbreviazione per tutti è Eurovision. Oggi più che mai una rassegna globale, che vede protagonisti nel 2016 43 paesi: 42 aderenti all'ente organizzatore più l'Australia, che dell'EBU è solo membro associato, essendo fuori dall'area (l’anno scorso fu invitata dall’EBU per festeggiare i 60 anni del concorso per via dei grandi ascolti che la rassegna fa in quel paese e che quest’anno è stata nuovamente invitata dall’organizzazione). L'ideatore della rassegna fu un italiano: Sergio Pugliese, nel 1956 direttore della RAI, che ispirandosi a Sanremo volle creare una rassegna musicale europea. La propose a Marcel Bezençon, il franco-svizzero allora direttore generale del neonato consorzio eurovisione, che mise il sigillo sull'idea: ecco così nascere un concorso di musica con lo scopo nobile di promuovere la collaborazione e l'amicizia tra i popoli europei, la ricostituzione di un continente dilaniato dalla guerra attraverso lo spettacolo e la tv. E oltre a questo, molto più prosaicamente, anche sperimentare una diretta in simultanea in più Paesi e promuovere il mezzo televisivo nel vecchio continente.

  • Yangtze's Distance Lures Slovenian Swimmer's Plunge Sports Yu Yilei World News 2004-02-14 07:13
    August 31, 2006 Advanced Search China Daily Advertisement Top News Home News Business Home News ... ... Opinion Feature Yangtze's distance lures Slovenian swimmer's plunge Sports Yu Yilei World News 2004-02-14 07:13 HK Edition Martin Strel may not know much about the Yangtze River, but he thinks he knows to Business Weekly how to beat it. Beijing Weekend Supplement The professional marathon swimmer from Slovenia is about to launch his latest bid to Shanghai Star conquer another of the world's famous rivers. This time in China. 21Century Strel, who will turn 50 this summer, plans to spend about two months swimming the majority of the 4,600-kilometre river that in many ways is a symbol for China. He will swim during the day and break at night to sleep in a boat, only to start again the next morning from the spot where he finished the day before. The aquatic journey - organized in co-operation with China International Sport Travel Company - will likely start at the beginning of June in Batang in Southwest China's Sichuan Province and end in China's financial hub Shanghai. "Ni hao, wo shi Ma Ding, wo xiang yao you chang jiang (Hi, I am Martin and I want to swim Yangtze River)," Strel declared yesterday in Beijing in hesitant Chinese. The bulky Slovenian has a rich experience in marathon swimming. He conquered the Danube River in Europe in 2000, and set the Guinness world record by swimming 3004 kilometres in 58 days. He beat his own record two years later with another mighty challenge - swimming the 3,797 kilometres from the Mississippi's source to its estuary in 68 days.

Fifty-four years after Germany played host to the second ever Eurovision Song Contest, the musical jamboree comes to Düsseldorf this May. It’s a very different world since ARD staged the show in 1957 with just 10 nations in a small TV studio in Frankfurt. This year, a record 43 countries will take part in the three shows, with a potential audience of 35,000 live in the Esprit Arena. All 10 nations from 1957 will be on show in Germany, but only two of their languages survive. The creaky phone lines that provided the results from the 100 judges have been superseded by state of the art, pan-continental technology that involves all the 125 million viewers watching at home. It’s a very different show indeed. Back in 1957, Lys Assia attempted to defend her Eurovision crown and this year Germany’s Lena will become the third artist taking a crack at the same challenge.

  • The World's Last
    OPEN WATER HEROES The world’S LAST SUPERHERO It’s been four years since Slovenian endurance swimmer Martin Strel became the first person to swim the length of the Amazon. Sarah Warwick caught up with the hard-drinking, hard-swimming legend as he attempts what could be his biggest challenge yet… Is Martin Strel super human? There are many moments in the film Big River Man, made about his epic, 66-day journey down the length of the Amazon, that make you think he must be. The very idea of his 3,272 mile swim is terrifying: a man takes on one of the longest and widest rivers in the world, a place known for its lethal sharks, snakes and man-eating fish. Despite suffering dizziness, nausea, diarrhea and sunstroke – and 22 members of his 25-strong support team ending up in hospital – he completes it, by swimming 52 miles a day every day for two months. Aside from the pain, what those who’ve seen the film of his 2007 journey will remember is the extraordinary tenacity and fortitude of Martin Strel – qualities that lead one member of his team to refer to him on camera as "the world’s last super hero". People will also remember the suggestion of madness that runs through the film: Martin’s obsessional consumption of wine and horse burgers; burgeoning paranoia and fear of local Amazonian villagers; defiance of health professionals who tell him he could die at any point; and an insanity born of mental exhaustion that culminates in Martin trying to electrocute his own head with what looks like a car battery.
