He would have been as engrossed as he had been during his last visit in May 2002, when he sat rapt in the first row listening to Walter Laqueur lecture on terrorism. The breadth of his curiosity was remarkable. He relished regular contact with his vast collection of Berlin friends and followed the Academy’s program closely from a distance. This spring he would have wanted to hear every detail of the visits of three veter- an Middle East experts. I can imagine the pleasure he would have taken in hearing the Scharoun Ensemble play compositions by Lukas Foss, how he would have conversed with Michael Geyer about nationalism, and how he would have listened attentively to Tom Geoghegan’s social prognoses. We were blessed to have him as long as we did, but we wish he were still here to cheer us on. –Gary Smith A Magazine from the Hans Arnhold Center Trustees of the American Academy 04 Remembering Stephen Kellen The Academy commemorates the life Published twice a year by the American Academy in Berlin Honorary Chairmen Number Eight – Spring 2004 of its great benefactor, friend, and mentor, Stephen Max Kellen.

They never left his side. Anna-Maria, the city of his birth, Berlin, andO the city he adopted, New York. As he was fond of saying, – Anabelle Garrett »I became a very good New Yorker but have always remained a good Berliner.« The American Academy embodies these three loves. The Academy’s Berlin home is the house in which Anna-Maria grew up and where she lived when Stephen courted her. The Academy was founded on the idea that it would be a living bridge between two communities about which Stephen cared deeply. It would be a bridge for people, including, importantly young people, and for ideas bringing Germany and America closer together and enriching both. Stephen gave every encouragement for the Academy to grow quickly into the role he envisioned for it. But as it grew (some- “I believe in love times even more rapidly than he expected), he admonished us – in another of his favorite phrases – »quality, not quantity« and work, and their must be our touchstone.

Wer die Zeitungen liest, kann es sicher nicht verpasst haben: in Dresden wird seit Oktober 2014 wöchentlich gegen den Islam und die Islamisierung Deutschlands und Europa demonstriert. Diese Protestbewegung nennt sich “Patriotische Europäer gegen die Islamisierung des Abendlandes”, kurz Pegida. Vor einem Jahr war alles noch ruhig in Dresden. Die Teilnehmerzahl der Demonstrationen wuchs aber schnell. Anfangs war die Teilnehmeranzahl noch relativ gering. Am 3. November lag sie auf ca. 1000. Am 8. Dezember lag sie schon auf 10.000, am 12. Januar sogar auf 25.000.1 Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich damit, wie die deutsche Zeitung Die Zeit in dem Zeitraum von Dezember 2014 bis Ende April 2015 über Pegida geschrieben hat. Die Zeit ist eine deutsche Wochenzeitung, die sich selbst als liberal bezeichnet.

  • 17 by Francis Mallett and Simon Obert on 20 June 1962 Johanna
    Beiträge A Case of Mistaken Identity? The Jalowetz Portrait by Richard Gerstl by Francis Mallett and Simon Obert On 20 June 1962 Johanna Jalowetz, the widow of the conductor and Schoenberg pupil Heinrich Jalowetz (d. 1946), wrote a letter to the art historian Otto Breicha. In those years Breicha was conducting research into the painter Richard Gerstl, in particular gathering information for a cata- logue of his works. In this connection he turned to Johanna Jalowetz, knowing that she owned “a painting by the artist.”1 Johanna Jalowetz re- sponded to his questions by noting that she possessed a Gerstl self-portrait, a “pointillist drawing” in ink on paper that probably “dates from the year 1906/7.” It bore, she continued, an “extraordinary resemblance” to the artist and was “a gift from him.”2 But she then added a paragraph whose contents can only have taken Breicha by surprise: At the same time, Gerstl painted to order a life-size three-quarter-length oil portrait of my husband in a pointillist technique. When we moved away from Vienna we left the said portrait for safekeeping with a relative, Alois Kurzweil. Our many changes of residence (at that time an opera conductor’s lot) made it impossible for us to look after the painting. And by the time we became more settled, after the First World War, we had lost all contact with and trace of Alois Kurzweil.3 1 Otto Breicha, letter of 4 June 1962 to Johanna Jalowetz, carbon copy in the Otto Breicha Archive, Leopold Museum, Vienna. We wish to thank Dominik Papst of the Leopold Museum for making available to us this and the following letter (see note 3).

Sausage Excellence for Over 70 Years A Proud Heritage The Bende family has been in the food trade since 1935 when a young Miklos Sr. opened his first grocery store in Hungary. He ran several grocery stores in Budapest and Miskolc before immigrating with his wife and young son in 1956. Soon after arriving in the United States, the family returned to its meat cutting and grocery roots, opening the first Bende store in Chicago’s Burnside neighborhood. Sev- eral stores followed, as did a reputation for preparing out- standing smoked meats. While we have grown and adopted new technologies, we still use the original old world recipes carried from Hungary by our grandfather. Using only the most authentic ingredients allows us to remain true to our high family standards and proud Hungarian heritage. Left top, our Lincoln Avenue store, circa 1964.

  • A Heretic in the Schoenberg Circle: Roberto Gerhard's First Engagement with Twelve-Tone Procedures in Andantino
    Twentieth-Century Music 16/3, 557–588 © Cambridge University Press 2019. This is an Open Access article, distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution licence (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), which permits unrestricted re-use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. doi: 10.1017/S1478572219000306 A Heretic in the Schoenberg Circle: Roberto Gerhard’s First Engagement with Twelve-Tone Procedures in Andantino DIEGO ALONSO TOMÁS Abstract Shortly before finishing his studies with Arnold Schoenberg, Roberto Gerhard composed Andantino,a short piece in which he used for the first time a compositional technique for the systematic circu- lation of all pitch classes in both the melodic and the harmonic dimensions of the music. He mod- elled this technique on the tri-tetrachordal procedure in Schoenberg’s Prelude from the Suite for Piano, Op. 25 but, unlike his teacher, Gerhard treated the tetrachords as internally unordered pitch-class collections. This decision was possibly encouraged by his exposure from the mid- 1920s onwards to Josef Matthias Hauer’s writings on ‘trope theory’. Although rarely discussed by scholars, Andantino occupies a special place in Gerhard’s creative output for being his first attempt at ‘twelve-tone composition’ and foreshadowing the permutation techniques that would become a distinctive feature of his later serial compositions. This article analyses Andantino within the context of the early history of twelve-tone music and theory. How well I do remember our Berlin days, what a couple we made, you and I; you (at that time) the anti-Schoenberguian [sic], or the very reluctant Schoenberguian, and I, the non-conformist, or the Schoenberguian malgré moi.

  • You Know You're..." Group, So I Decided to Make One! :=) I'll Add Some Here, and As People Join and Post Their Own, I'll Add Them
    Well, every other culture has their "You Know You're..." group, so I decided to make one! :=) I'll add some here, and as people join and post their own, I'll add them. So let's see... You Know You're Hungarian... 1. When you use sour cream more than ketchup. 2. When your parents come to visit for 3 weeks and you all stay in a one bedroom apartment. 3. When feeding your guests is your main priority even if they claim they're not hungry and in which case you get slightly offended/upset that they don't want your hospitality. 4. When someone says that Hungarian "is like Russian and all those other Slavic languages," and then you have to go into great detail about the origins of Hungarian with a scolding history lesson. 5. When Paprika is just as important as salt & pepper on the table & in food. 6. When you know what Unicum is and prefer it over Jagermeister. 7. When it's shocking for you to realize that TV channels of foreign countries don't broadcast full live coverage of kayak-canoe and water polo world championships in prime time. 8. When you tell someone that you are Hungarian, they ask "Are you hungry?" Then you congratulate them on being the millionth person to say that to you. 9. When you've heard, "If you're hungry, why not go to Turkey?" at least once in your life. 10. When you have a relative who's named Attila. Or Jozsef. Or Janos. Or Laszlo.

After presenting the theoretical basis for this report, which builds on an earlier project’s publication (Doomernik & Ardon 2018) and is enriched by the empirical findings of the CEASEVAL research that connects the relevance of a local perspective with an analysis and review of alternative forms of shaping the Common European Asylum System. To transform the CEAS into a sustainable and equitable common asylum and migration framework this report points towards three possible fundamental changes that might make the CEAS more sustainable and foster equity.

Arnold Schönberg rencontre Richard Gerstl, un jeune peintre autrichien de vingt-trois ans. Le compositeur, dont la musique peine à rencontrer le succès, décide d’inviter le jeune homme dans sa maison du 9e arrondissement de Vienne afin qu’il lui enseigne la peinture, ainsi qu’à sa femme Mathilde, sœur d’Alexander von Zemlinsky. Au fil des mois, Gerstl gagne la confiance et l’estime de Schönberg qui, de neuf ans son aîné, le prend sous son aile et l’aide à obtenir des commandes de portraits. Cette inégalable proximité permet au jeune peintre de rencontrer de nombreux artistes et de se lier d’amitié avec les élèves du compositeur au rang desquels figurent Alban Berg, Anton Webern, Heinrich Jalowetz, Karl Horwitz et Erwin Stein.
