  • The Wife of Manoah, the Mother of Samson
    546 THE WIFE OF MANOAH, THE MOTHER OF SAMSON Magdel le Roux University of South Africa P O Box 392, UNISA 0003 E-mail: [email protected] (Received 21/04/2016; accepted 06/07/2016) ABSTRACT The last account of the judges is that of Samson (Judges 13–16). This account has all the elements of a blockbuster. All the indications are that Samson would be an extraordinary person. And yet, even though Samson may be regarded as some sort of hero, the story suggests that Samson was also the weakest or most ineffective of the judges. Tension is created through the juxtaposition of “ideal” and “non-ideal” bodies. An alternative ideology, as a hidden polemic, is concealed in the account. As in the case of Achsah (Judges 1:11–15) and Deborah (Judges 4–5), the nameless wife of Manoah (the mother of Samson) serves as an illustration of “countercultural rhetoric” as a hidden polemic. INTRODUCTION In the dominant cultural ideology of the Israelite tribes, ideal, whole bodies were those of male Israelite soldiers without any defects. This is the image that comes to mind when one first reads about the strong man, Samson, although in time one becomes more aware of his weaknesses than his strengths. These accounts (Judges 14–16) are full of violence and of Samson’s personal revenge, but they also describe his weakness for women. In the case of Samson, an ideal male body develops into an “unwhole body” in that an aesthetic element is added to the story: God favours Samson despite his disobedience (Chs 14–16).

  • An Afternoon with Porgy and Bess Tuesday, Dec
    College of Arts and Sciences College of Arts and Sciences ORIN College of Arts and Sciences GROSSMAN AN AFTERNOON WITH PORGY AND BESS TUESDAY, DEC. 8 • 5 p.m. click here to learn more about the artist Porgy and Bess was George Gershwin’s greatest labor of love and his most controversial masterpiece. When it opened on Broadway in 1935 it was attacked on all sides for its racial themes, its dark plot, the use of operatic devices such as recitative, and its length. The opera’s treatment of African American life has always stirred controversy, yet the opera contains Gershwin’s greatest music, some of which is familiar to everyone. This presentation explores the story of Porgy and Bess and the fascinating history of its life on the stage. It will include a performance of “Summertime,” “My Man’s Gone Now,” “It Ain’t Necessarily So,” and “Bess, You Is My Woman Now” in special arrangements by the great American pianist, Earl Wild. Orin Grossman has been delighting audiences the world over with his unique approach to performing and explaining great American and European music. As a performer he is in demand as an interpreter of the music of George Gershwin, playing his songs and classical compositions around the world, including Italy, Egypt, Australia, and Russia, where he performed Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue and gave the Russian premiere of Gershwin’s Second Rhapsody with the St. Petersburg Philharmonic to a standing ovation. Dr. Grossman graduated magna cum laude from Harvard College with a bachelor’s degree in music.

  • Wichita Symphony Orchestra Gershwin's Magic Key Young
    Wichita Symphony Orchestra Gershwin’s Magic Key Young People’s Concerts January 26-28, 2016 Family Concert January 30, 2016 George Gershwin (September 26, 1898 – July 11, 1937) was an American composer and pianist. Gershwin's compositions spanned both popular and classical genres, and his most popular melodies are widely known. Among his best-known works are the orchestral compositions Rhapsody in Blue (1924) and An American in Paris (1928) as well as the opera Porgy and Bess (1935). He began his career as a song plugger in a music store on Tin Pan Alley (played songs for people to decide if they would buy the song sheet), but soon started composing Broadway theatre works with his brother Ira Gershwin. Ira wrote the lyrics/words while George wrote the music. He moved to Paris to study with Nadia Boulanger, where he began to compose An American in Paris. After returning to New York City, he wrote Porgy and Bess with Ira and the author DuBose Heyward. Porgy and Bess is now considered one of the most important American operas of the twentieth century. In his jazz compositions he captured music from immigrants so not to lose that rich music, the voice of the American soul. Gershwin moved to Hollywood and composed numerous film scores until his death in 1937 from a brain tumor. Gershwin's compositions have been adapted for use in many films and for television, and several became jazz standards recorded in many variations. Many celebrated singers and musicians have covered his songs. The Roaring Twenties is a term for the 1920’s in the Western world.

  • Zu Ella Fitzgerald Vom 2.12.2019
    Ella Fitzgerald Story auf Radio 700 vom Montag, den 2.12.2019, 18.55 - 21.00 Uhr Autoren: Klaus Huckert/Uwe Lorenz Einleitungsmusik: A Tisket, A Tasket Anmoderation: In der heutigen Sendung des Jazz-Cocktails wollen wir uns mit dem Star des Vocal- Jazz Ella Fitzgerald beschäftigen. Im 20.Jahrhundert prägte keine andere Stimme den Jazz so sehr wie die von Ella. Ihre Beinamen waren „The Queen of Jazz“ oder „The first Lady of Jazz“ bzw. auch „The first Lady of Song“. Zur Eröffnung haben wir bereits ihren ersten Millionen-Hit „A Tisket, A Tasket“ aus dem Jahr 1938 gehört. In der fast sechzig Jahren währenden Welt-Karriere nahm die Sängerin mehrere hundert Platten auf, erhielt 14 Grammys und eine Vielzahl an Ehrungen. Schnelle Tempi im Bebop-Gesang, melancholischer Grundton bei Balladen, mitreißender Groove bei Swing-Nummern und hochinteressante Scat-Einlagen kennzeichneten ihren Stil. Basis ihres Könnens war eine Genauigkeit in der Intonation und glasklare Töne, wie man sie heute selten findet. Ihr Repertoire umfasste den Swing, Bebop, Blues, Bossa Nova und Gospel. Musik aus dem genannten Repertoire (Swing, Bebop, Blues, Bossa Nova und Gospel) z.B. „Please don’t talk about it when I am gone“ (Swing“) CD „Count Basie/Ella Fitzgerald: The perfect Match“, „One note Samba“ (CD „Ella & Pass …Again“) Track 14, „St. Louis Blues“ (CD „Ella & Basie The Perfect Match Track 10), „Mack the Knife“ (Swing) (CD Ella in Berlin, (10er Pack REEL TO REEL) …….. Die Anfangsjahre von Ella Fitzgerald (Take 1) Ella Jane Fitzgerald – geboren 1917 in Newport News/Virginia, verstorben 1996 in Beverly Hills/Kalifornien -, hatte eine relativ schwierige Kindheit.
