  • Luciano Pavarotti Is Dead at 71
    September 6, 2007 Luciano Pavarotti Is Dead at 71 By BERNARD HOLLAND Luciano Pavarotti, the Italian singer whose ringing, pristine sound set a standard for operatic tenors of the postwar era, died Thursday at his home near Modena, in northern Italy. He was 71. His death was announced by his manager, Terri Robson. The cause was pancreatic cancer. In July 2006 he underwent surgery for the cancer in New York, and he had made no public appearances since then. He was hospitalized again this summer and released on Aug. 25. Like Enrico Caruso and Jenny Lind before him, Mr. Pavarotti extended his presence far beyond the limits of Italian opera. He became a titan of pop culture. Millions saw him on television and found in his expansive personality, childlike charm and generous figure a link to an art form with which many had only a glancing familiarity. Early in his career and into the 1970s he devoted himself with single- mindedness to his serious opera and recital career, quickly establishing his rich sound as the great male operatic voice of his generation — the “King of the High Cs,” as his popular nickname had it. By the 1980s he expanded his franchise exponentially with the Three Tenors projects, in which he shared the stage with Plácido Domingo and José Carreras, first in concerts associated with the World Cup and later in world tours. Most critics agreed that it was Mr. Pavarotti’s charisma that made the collaboration such a success. The Three Tenors phenomenon only broadened his already huge audience and sold millions of recordings and videos.

  • Warten Auf Das Neue Album
    # 2018/01 dschungel https://jungle.world/artikel/2018/01/warten-auf-das-neue-album In diesem Jahr erscheint das neue Album von The Breeders Warten auf das neue Album Von Dierk Saathoff Zehn Jahre sind vergangen, seit The Breeders ihr letztes Album veröffentlicht haben. Nun wurde ein neues für 2018 angekündigt. Die beiden Gitarre spielenden Frauen sahen sich zum Verwechseln ähnlich, auch ihre Singstimmen waren kaum voneinander zu unterscheiden. Der Moderator Conan O’Brien, in dessen Sendung dieser Auftritt 1993 stattfand, hatte die Band anhand ihrer Selbstbeschreibung angekündigt: »Just a bunch of rock chicks who like to play loud guitar music.« Und das taten die Breeders dann auch, vor einer Videoprojektion, die Menschen beim Billard zeigte, spielten sie laute Gitarrenmusik, genauer gesagt den Song »Divine Hammer«, wobei man nicht eindeutig klären kann, ob in dem Stück über einen gigantisch großen Penis oder doch über eine ­reli­giöse Erweckung gesungen wird. Über die Breeders wird durchgängig kolportiert, es handele sich bei ihnen um ein Nebenprojekt der Bassistin der Pixies, Kim Deal. Mit der Verwendung des Wortes »Nebenprojekt« geht eine Abwertung einher, eingefleischte Fans der Pixies reden sich so ein, die Mitglieder ihrer heiligen Band seien auf diese verpflichtet, wenn einer von ihnen noch in einer anderen Band involviert ist, sei das nur eine Spielerei, passiere nur ­nebenbei. Für Kim Deal war es wohl mehr als das: Genervt von den Attitüden des Sängers der Pixies, Frank Black, gründete sie 1989 wohl nicht zufällig eine fast ausschließlich aus Frauen bestehende Band, die Breeders. Auch Tanya Donelli und Josephine Wiggs hatten schon in anderen Bands gespielt und suchten bei den Breeders ein neues Umfeld, um besser das musikalisch verwirklichen zu können, was ihnen vorschwebte.
