Danmarks Nationalbank Issues the Sixth in Its Series of Thematic 20-Krone Coins with Specially Chosen Danish Towers As the Motif on the Reverse

27 January 2005 Ref.: 2005-04E Landet Church adorns new thematic coin On 28 January 2005, Danmarks Nationalbank issues the sixth in its series of thematic 20-krone coins with specially chosen Danish towers as the motif on the reverse. Seen through chestnut leaves from the grave of Elvira Madigan and Six- ten Sparre, the tower of Landet Church on the island of Tåsinge reaches towards the sky on the reverse of the new thematic coin. Landet Church is a traditional Danish village church, built around 1150-1200 in the Age of the Valdemars, with the tower and porch added later. The church tower was built in 1634. The sculptor Øivind Nygaard is the artist behind the tower motif from Landet Church. The hearts and pistol that Øivind Nygaard has woven into the chestnut leaves around the tower symbolise the tragic love story of Elvira Madigan and Sixten Sparre. "In addition to showing a Danish church tower, the pictorial metaphors seen on the coin, combined with the view of the tower of Landet Church, are intended to tell a story and interpret the history and mythology of the church," Øivind Nygaard ex- plains. The Landet Church tower coin is issued as a 20-krone coin in an edition of 1.2 million. It is of the same size and alloy as the ordinary 20-krone coin in circulation. The face of the coin shows a profile of the Queen by the sculptor, Professor Mogens Møller. The new thematic coin can be purchased from banks and Danmarks Na- tionalbank from 28 January 2005. The next tower coin is expected to be issued in the autumn of 2005. Pictures can be downloaded from www.nationalbanken.dk – Press room, Photogallery.

The Other Tchaikowsky
The Other Tchaikowsky A biographical sketch of André Tchaikowsky David A. Ferré Cover painting: André Tchaikowsky courtesy of Milein Cosman (Photograph by Ken Grundy) About the cover The portrait of André Tchaikowsky at the keyboard was painted by Milein Cosman (Mrs. Hans Keller) in 1975. André had come to her home for a visit for the first time after growing a beard. She immediately suggested a portrait be made. It was completed in two hours, in a single sitting. When viewing the finished picture, André said "I'd love to look like that, but can it possibly be me?"

When I sneaked a glance I saw that his eyes had narrowed and he held his mouth slightly open, as if ready to speak but unable to bring out the words. Finally, he managed a weak, "Would you say that again?" It was April 1985, and I had just arrived in London to enjoy six months of vacation and to fulfill an overdue promise to myself.

HANZHI WANG, Accordion
HANZHI WANG, accordion Photo: Matt Dine COMMUNITIES DIGITAL NEWS (Washington, DC): “Ms. Wang dazzled all at the full house at the Kennedy Center with her skills and musicianship. She offered a program of surprisingly daring and eclectic repertoire, including a wide range of classical repertoire explored so masterfully that it seems as if these works had actually been written for the accordion in the first place. It was a genuinely eye-opening evening. Hanzhi Wang is undoubtedly well on her way to a brilliant career that is certain to be much discussed.” OBERON’S GROVE (New York): “Hanzhi Wang gave a remarkable performance. She displayed staggering virtuosity and a gift for drawing colors and magical dynamics from her accordion. It was an inspiring mixture of passion and finesse. Putting a regal polish on every phrase, her sparkling technique held the audience in a state of breathlessness, as thrilling to watch as to hear.” NEW YORK MUSIC DAILY: “Hanzhi Wang isn’t the first accordionist to specialize in classical music, but she is the first one ever to earn inclusion on the Young Concert Artists roster. That’s a pretty big deal. Nothing beats the plaintive lusciousness of Wang’s instrument of choice. She has a magically dynamic new album, and her Carnegie Hall debut in Zankel Hall is one of THE big accordion events of the year in New York. ” Musical America Worldwide New Artist of the Month, July 2018 First Prize, 2017 Young Concert Artists International Auditions First Prize, 40th Castelfidardo International Accordion Competition (Italy) Peter P.

Citat kan naturligtvis göras efter sedvanliga regler. 1. Upptakten Det är på morgonen den 23 juli 1889, i en liten glänta i Nørreskov på ön Tåsinge i Danmark. Föga anar väl den lilla skara som samlats här att de står inför vad som skulle komma att kallas ”århundradets kärlekssaga”. Eller att nästan varenda människa fortfarande kommer att ha hört talas om denna händelse ännu hundratjugofem år senare. Eller att historien blir tema för allt från skillingtryck, religiösa pamfletter och romaner till filmer, baletter och musikaler. Eller att det skrivs böcker som denna. Här i Nørreskov finns nu bland andra provinsialläkare Møller, poliskommissarie Egense och tingsnotarie Jansen, alla här i tjänsten. Orsaken till att de kommit hit är de båda lik en bondkvinna funnit kvällen innan, liken av en man och en ung kvinna. Vid mannens sida ligger en revolver. Skottskadorna på kropparna talar sitt tydliga språk: den unga kvinnan har mördats av mannen vid hennes sida, sedan har han uppenbarligen skjutit sig själv. Förutom de tre tjänstemännen har åtskilliga nyfikna lockats till platsen, bland annat en semesterfirande svensk, som rapporterar sina iakttagelser till Skånska Aftonbladet i Malmö.

RÉTROSPECTIVE BO WIDERBERG, CINÉASTE REBELLE Du 12 Août Au 1Er Septembre 2020
ÉTÉ 2020 RÉTROSPECTIVE www.cinema-star.com BO WIDERBERG, CINÉASTE REBELLE du 12 août au 1er septembre 2020 années 60 ont été une des périodes les plus florissantes du Les cinéma suédois, notamment grâce à la création de l’Institut du film suédois en 1963. Plusieurs jeunes réalisateurs suédois étaient à cette même période très inspirés par la Nouvelle Vague française : envie de liberté, sensualité et priorité donnée à la transmission de l’émotion plutôt qu’à la perfection technique. Le résultat fut un ci- néma suédois plus réaliste. Bo Widerberg (1930–1997) fut le réali- sateur le plus important de cette mouvance. Le cinéma de son pays lui paraissait alors rigide, provincial et arriéré, il était alors en quête d’émancipation, inspiré par Cassavetes, Demy et Truffaut. Des his- toires d’hommes qui défient l’ordre établi et de femmes qui refusent l’asservissement. Des histoires qui, malgré de nombreux prix dans les plus grands festivals, étaient tombées dans l’oubli. Des histoires d’une liberté folle que nous sommes fier.e.s de vous faire (re)décou- vrir. LE PÉCHÉ SUÉDOIS BO WIDERBERG - 1963 - 1h32 - (SE) - VOST Avec Inger Taube, Thommy Berggren, Lars Passgard... Suède, années 50. Britt Larsson, jeune ouvrière en usine, fait la connaissance de Björn, d’origine bourgeoise, cultivé mais compliqué, qui disparaît aussitôt. Elle rencontre ensuite Robban, jeune guitariste et chanteur, canaille mais touchant, dont elle tombe enceinte. Elle décide de garder l’enfant. Mais leur « couple » ne tient pas le choc, elle em- ménage seule mais Björn réapparaît par le plus grand des hasards… Tableau d’une jeunesse qui se cherche et rejette les tabous, un magnifique portrait de femme libre dans un esprit Nouvelle Vague.
