ON Stagevolume 10 • Issue 3 WE ARE PREPARING to WELCOME YOU BACK October 2020 ® ON Stagevolume 10 • issue 3 WE ARE PREPARING TO WELCOME YOU BACK may 2020 volume 9 • issue 10 Stage ON THE ARTS BRING HOME with the NCPA@home digital series and other cultural offerings from around the world PLUS HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE LAST SIX DIGITAL ISSUES AND MORE Chairman’s Note lanning future activities here at the NCPA is a truly fascinating study in futurology. Tall claims from Pvarious sources, predicting that they would have a vaccine within x months/years, still need verification. From absorbing advanced digital technology to perching a renowned conductor on a huge scaffolding to conduct La bohème in the open is an indicator of the lengths organisations will go to, to bring back audiences, where the real experience is difficult to replicate. However, the second-best experience of witnessing performances at home certainly needs to be pursued for the dual purpose of immediate gratification with current standards, as well as in many cases, invaluable archiving. Our head of the Digital Division, a four-time National Award winner, has written about our plans in this issue. Added inputs will surely be discussed when our council meets, fairly soon. An interesting gathering of the decision-makers heading performing arts centres and major institutions from the United States, Europe, the U.K., Australasia, etc. seemed to seriously veer towards various attempts to bring audiences back. Certainly, the sad pictures of football and tennis tournaments played sans the vital element – people – were convincing enough. So, the future effort of the NCPA also needs to concentrate in these directions. I am happy to inform you that the ON Stage will revert to its printed format from the October issue, and pay tribute to our editor Snigdha Hasan, who emerged unscathed from all these changes.

  • Transantiquity
    TransAntiquity TransAntiquity explores transgender practices, in particular cross-dressing, and their literary and figurative representations in antiquity. It offers a ground-breaking study of cross-dressing, both the social practice and its conceptualization, and its interaction with normative prescriptions on gender and sexuality in the ancient Mediterranean world. Special attention is paid to the reactions of the societies of the time, the impact transgender practices had on individuals’ symbolic and social capital, as well as the reactions of institutionalized power and the juridical systems. The variety of subjects and approaches demonstrates just how complex and widespread “transgender dynamics” were in antiquity. Domitilla Campanile (PhD 1992) is Associate Professor of Roman History at the University of Pisa, Italy. Filippo Carlà-Uhink is Lecturer in Classics and Ancient History at the University of Exeter, UK.

Brussels PRINTED FOR MELINE, CANS A.ND C"., EOILEVARD DE WATERLOO, Zi. M DCCC XXXIX. MR V. un:ve PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION. To assist in the detection of spurious and the correction of inaccu- rate pedigrees, is one of the purposes of the present publication, in which respect the first Volume has been of acknowledged utility. The two together, it is hoped, will form a comprehensive and tole- rably correct Register of Pedigrees. It will be observed that some of the Mares which appeared in the last Supplement (whereof this is a republication and continua- tion) stand as they did there, i. e. without any additions to their produce since 1813 or 1814. — It has been ascertained that several of them were about that time sold by public auction, and as all attempts to trace them have failed, the probability is that they have either been converted to some other use, or been sent abroad. If any proof were wanting of the superiority of the English breed of horses over that of every other country, it might be found in the avidity with which they are sought by Foreigners. The exportation of them to Russia, France, Germany, etc. for the last five years has been so considerable, as to render it an object of some importance in a commercial point of view.

  • ARSC Journal, Fall 1989 213 Sound Recording Reviews
    Sound Recording Reviews The Music and Arts Programs of America CD offers the entire broadcast program of January 19, 1952, a typical though not particularly exceptional example of Reiner's work on the radio at this time. His Bart6k "calling card" included the two Rumanian Dances in the orchestration of Leo Weiner (not Tibor Serly, as indicated). He recorded both the Debussy Suite and Ravel's Le tombeau de Couperin music two days later with the same orchestra for RCA Victor, and had previously recorded Til Eulenspiegel with the RCA Victor Symphony Orchestra, which included players from NBC. The gem of this present CD is the Ravel Suite, a superb reading of that composer's precise timbre and rhythmic subtlety. Possibly for legal reasons, the orchestra is labelled "The Symphony of the Air," a designation that did not appear until after Toscanini's retirement in 1954. Despite minor pitch problems, the CD transfer is acceptable for its vintage, if only because the RCA Victor recordings of the three principal works are no longer available. Of these recordings from broadcasts, the two most important by far are the Salome and the Walkilre Act II, not only for Fritz Reiner's conducting but also for their exceptional casting. In both releases, the sheer excitement generated by singers and conductor will overcome any sonic limitations. Reviewed by Philip Hart New Reiner CDs Beethoven: Piano Concerto No. 4 in G major, Op. 58 (Recorded Orchestra Hall April 22, 23, 1963); Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-flat major, Op. 73 (Recorded Orchestra Hall May 4, 12, 1961).

  • Euripides and Gender: the Difference the Fragments Make
    Euripides and Gender: The Difference the Fragments Make Melissa Karen Anne Funke A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2013 Reading Committee: Ruby Blondell, Chair Deborah Kamen Olga Levaniouk Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Classics © Copyright 2013 Melissa Karen Anne Funke University of Washington Abstract Euripides and Gender: The Difference the Fragments Make Melissa Karen Anne Funke Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Ruby Blondell Department of Classics Research on gender in Greek tragedy has traditionally focused on the extant plays, with only sporadic recourse to discussion of the many fragmentary plays for which we have evidence. This project aims to perform an extensive study of the sixty-two fragmentary plays of Euripides in order to provide a picture of his presentation of gender that is as full as possible. Beginning with an overview of the history of the collection and transmission of the fragments and an introduction to the study of gender in tragedy and Euripides’ extant plays, this project takes up the contexts in which the fragments are found and the supplementary information on plot and character (known as testimonia) as a guide in its analysis of the fragments themselves. These contexts include the fifth- century CE anthology of Stobaeus, who preserved over one third of Euripides’ fragments, and other late antique sources such as Clement’s Miscellanies, Plutarch’s Moralia, and Athenaeus’ Deipnosophistae. The sections on testimonia investigate sources ranging from the mythographers Hyginus and Apollodorus to Apulian pottery to a group of papyrus hypotheses known as the “Tales from Euripides”, with a special focus on plot-type, especially the rape-and-recognition and Potiphar’s wife storylines.

  • My Top 10 Violin Music
    My Top 10 Violin Music Prepared by David Chan for GTA Audio January 16, 2012 *Prior consensus and permission by the GTAA group are mandatory, before this write-up will be copied or forwarded to any party outside the group. Thank you! Foreword This is my first write-up on a series of ten that I aim to share my beloved music with my friends in the GTAA. Please bear with the fact that I never studied music, never played any instrument and have attended too few concerts. The lists of music are solely my personal favorites, and are not intended to be comprehensive in each category. My picks of the performance are also based on my own limited experience, and are not supposed to be the best of that piece. Therefore please treat them as notes of a music lover or an audiophile, rather than those of a music critic or a reviewer. I know very little about chamber music; the quintets, quartets, trios, sonatas and the like and therefore I would shy away and leave it to the more capable hands and ears, like those of our dear friends, Lawrence and Len, to do justice for this rich music category. I’ll consider my time and effort well spent if the write-ups will lure some of you to search and buy the music, and attract feedback on some other important titles as well as alternative recordings that I neglected to include. I’ll also give higher priority to those recordings that are more accessible and affordable, and whenever possible show their CD equivalents.

These were his final recordings. The Verdi Requiem excepted, these are all major contributions to Reiner's recorded repertory, the Carmen being especially welcome for its stylish though old-fashioned performance.

Fritz Kreisler made this remark after hearing Hassid (or Chasyd, the name with which he was born) in the late thirties at the invitation of the teenager's teacher, Carl Flesch. Kreisler's statement must be taken as hyperbole inspired by astonishment, a response shared by other invited guests such as Szigeti and Thibaud, but echoed with unsettling consistency by many veteran collectors ofviolin recordings.
