Theatre and Music in Roman Macedonia
TRIANTAFYllIA GIANNOU THEATRE AND MUSIC IN ROMAN MACEDONIA To Prof. G. M. Sifakis, with gratitude ABSTRACT: This article aims to examine theatrical and musical activ ity in the Macedonian region during the Roman era. Literary and epi graphic evidence, theatre buildings and dramatic monuments present only some facets of the diversity of cultural life in Roman Macedonia, which we endeavour to reconstitute. At the same time, through the extant scraps of information we attempt to trace the history of Greek theatre up to the end of the Imperial age, stressing the scenic and thymelic contests but also including the performances of musicians, mimes, pantomimes, and other “paratheatrical” artists. HE FIRST DECADES OF ROMAN SOVEREIGNTY over the Macedonian Tkingdom were a time of cultural and economic decline; gradually, how ever, some of the new administrative centres (e.g. Amphipolis and Thes salonike) would become active, Beroia would assume a more important role, and Roman colonies would be founded. This is the new political con text within which we shall be following both the continuation of panhel lenic and local theatrical and musical shows and the changes that emerged in the artistic and religious life of the Macedonians through the interven tions of the Roman administration and the impact of Roman culture gen erally. Our attention will focus on theatrical and musical events and on performances of “paratheatrical” artists: mimes, dancers, buffoons, con * This study was written within the framework of the “Ancient Theatre Electronic Docu mentation Project” (under the aegis of the Institute for Mediterranean Studies); the first part was published in Logeion 6 (2016); a version of it was published in Greek (2012). -

OLYMPIC GAMES MONTREAL July 17 - August 01, 1976
Y.E.A.H. - Young Europeans Active and Healthy OLYMPIC GAMES MONTREAL July 17 - August 01, 1976 Canada boycotted by Africa... The 1976 Summer Olympics, officially called the Games of the XXI Olympiad ( French : Les XXIes olympiques d'été ), were held in Montreal , Quebec , in 1976, and the first Olympic Games held in Canada . Montreal was awarded the rights to the 1976 Games on May 12, 1970, at the 69th IOC Session in Amsterdam , over the bids of Moscow and Los Angeles . It is so far the only Summer Olympic Games to be held in Canada. Calgary and Vancouver later hosted the Winter Olympic Games in 1988 and 2010 , respectively. The vote occurred on May 12, 1970, at the 69th IOC Session in Amsterdam, Netherlands . While Los Angeles and Moscow were viewed as the favourites given that they represented the world's two main powers, many of the smaller countries supported Montreal as an underdog and as a politically neutral site for the games. Los Angeles was eliminated after the first round and Montreal won in the second round. Moscow would go on to host the 1980 Summer Olympics and Los Angeles the 1984 Summer Olympics . One blank vote was cast in the second and final round. Toronto had made its third attempt for the Olympics but failed to get the support of the Canadian Olympic Committee , Based on www.wikipedia.org which selected Montreal instead. The Games were officially opened by Elizabeth II. The Olympic torch was lit by Stephane Prefontaine and Sandra Henderson (see photo) . Twenty-nine countries, mostly African, boycotted the Montreal Games when the International Olympic Committee (IOC) refused to ban New Zealand, after the New Zealand national rugby union team had toured South Africa earlier in 1976 in defiance of the United Nations ' calls for a sporting embargo. -

Olympie de Spontini, entre tragédie lyrique et grand opéra Tout travail sur l’adaptation lyrique des œuvres littéraires a pour mérite d’attirer l’attention sur quelques titres oubliés de l’histoire de l’opéra, éclairés seulement par le nom illustre de l’écrivain qui en fournit la source. Le danger peut toutefois être double. On prêtera volontiers une trop grande attention à quelque œuvre mineure, rehaussée exagérément par une origine littéraire qu’elle ne mérite guère. On prêtera beaucoup, aussi, à tel écrivain censé avoir nourri, à son corps défendant et en tout anachronisme, tantôt le melodramma romantique, tantôt le grand opéra historique, simplement parce que ces genres lyriques ont puisé dans son œuvre. -

Spontini's Olimpie: Between Tragédie Lyrique and Grand Opéra
Spontini’s Olimpie : between tragédie lyrique and grand opéra Olivier Bara Any study of operatic adaptations of literary works has the merit of draw - ing attention to forgotten titles from the history of opera, illuminated only by the illustrious name of the writer who provided their source. The danger, however, may be twofold. It is easy to lavish excessive attention on some minor work given exaggerated importance by a literary origin of which it is scarcely worthy. Similarly, much credit may be accorded to such-and-such a writer who is supposed – however unwittingly and anachronistically – to have nurtured the Romantic melodramma or the historical grand opéra , simply because those operatic genres have drawn on his or her work. The risk is of creating a double aesthetic confusion, with the source work obscured by the adapted work, which in turn obscures its model. In the case of Olimpie , the tragédie lyrique of Gaspare Spontini, the first danger is averted easily enough: the composer of La Vestale deserves our interest in all his operatic output, even in a work that never enjoyed the expected success in France. There remains the second peril. Olimpie the tragédie lyrique , premiered in its multiple versions between 1819 and 1826, is based on a tragedy by Voltaire dating from 1762. Composed in a period of transition by a figure who had triumphed during the Empire period, it is inspired by a Voltaire play less well known (and less admired) than Zaïre , Sémiramis or Le Fanatisme . Hence Spontini’s work, on which its Voltairean origin sheds but little light, initially seems enigmatic in 59 gaspare spontini: olimpie aesthetic terms: while still faithful to the subjects and forms of the tragédie lyrique , it has the reputation of having blazed the trail for Romantic grand opéra , so that Voltaire might be seen, through a retrospective illusion, as a distant instigator of that genre. -

GAMES INFORMATION The Olympic & Paralympic Movement The International Olympic Committee (IOC) was created in 1894 and the fi rst Olympic Games of the modern era opened in Athens on April 6, 1896. The goal of the Olympic Movement is to build a peaceful and bet- ter world by educating youth through sport, by bringing together ath- letes from all countries in sincere and impartial competition, and by sharing with a spirit of friendship, solidarity, and fair play. No discrimina- tion of any kind is allowed against any country or person on grounds of race, religion, or politics. The International Paralympic Committee (IPC) was founded in 1989 and is one of the largest sport organizations in the world. Representing the vast majority of athletes with a disability, it has taken sport to a new and higher level, providing unique opportunities from a developmental to an elite sport level. Today, thousands of athletes participate in more than 300 international competitions every year all over the world. Through its ideals and activities, the IPC seeks the continuous global promotion of the values of the Paralympic Movement, with a vision of inspiration and empowerment. Every person or organization that plays any part whatsoever in the Olympic and Paralympic Movement must accept the supreme authority of the IOC and the IPC and shall be bound by their rules. The Olympic and Paralympic Games are held every four years, at which time athletes of all nations affi liated with the worldwide Olympic Movement are assembled for fair and equal competition. The Olympic Movement celebrates an “Olympiad,” a period of four successive years. -

A consideration of over 1500 opera reviews from close to thirty periodicals, however, paints a more complex picture. In addition to a fascination with the supernatural, composers were drawn to a variety of libretti, including Biblical and Classical topics, and considered the application of recitative and other conventions most historians have overlooked because of their un-German heritage. Despite the variety of approaches and conceptions of what a German opera might look like, writers from Vienna to Kassel shared a common aspiration to develop a true German opera. The new language of concert criticism found from specialized music journals like the Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung to the entertainment inserts of feuilletons like the Zeitung für die elegante Welt made the operatic endeavor of the early nineteenth century a national one rather than a regional one as it was in the eighteenth century. ii Copyright 2010, Kevin Robert Burke iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First, I would like to offer gratitude to all my colleagues, friends, and family who supported me with encouraging words, a listening ear, and moments of celebration at the end of each stage. -
