IN THE END YOU GET EVERYTHING BACK (LIZA MINNELLI)

The afterlife is an infinity of custom shelving, where everything you have ever loved has a perfect place, including things that don’t fit on shelves, like the weeping willow from your parents’ backyard, or an old boyfriend, exactly as he was in your second year of college, or an aria you love, but without the rest of the opera you don’t particularly care for. My favorite joke: Q: You know who dies? A: Everyone! Because it’s true. But ask any doctor and they’ll say that prolonging a life is saving a life. Ask anyone who survives their surgeries, and they’ll say yes, to keep living is to be saved. I do think there’s a statute of limitations on grief, like, certainly, how someone died can be sad forever, but who can be sad simply about the fact that Shakespeare, say, is dead, or Sappho, or Judy Garland, or Rumi. There’s a Twitter account called LizaMinnelliOutlives, which put into the world a set of thoughts I was having privately, but the Twitter account is kinder than I had been, tweeting things “Liza Minnelli has outlived the National Rifle Association which has filed for bankruptcy” and “Liza Minnelli has outlived Armie Hammer’s career” to take the sting out of the really painful ones, like “Liza Minnelli has outlived Jessica Walter,” or like “Liza Minnelli has outlived George Michael” or “Liza Minnelli has outlived Prince.” In my own afterlife, the custom shelves are full of Liza Minnellis— Liza in Cabaret, Liza in Arrested Development, Liza singing “Steam Heat” on The Judy Garland Christmas Special, Liza on the Muppet Show, Liza in Liza’s at the Palace, and because this is heaven, Liza won’t even know she’s in my hall of loved objects, just as I won’t know that my fandom has been placed on her shelf for when Liza Minnelli has outlived Jason Schneiderman, waiting for Liza Minnelli when Liza Minnelli has outlived Liza Minnelli, which is what fame is, and what fame is not, and if Jason Schneiderman outlives Jason Schneiderman, and your love of this poem waits for me on one of my shelves, and will keep me company for eternity, thank you for that. I promise to cherish your love in that well-lit infinity of forever. In one theory of the mind, the psyche is just a grab bag of lost objects, our wholeness lost when we leave the womb, when we discover our own body, and so on and so on, our wholeness lost and lost and lost, as we find ourselves smaller and smaller, which is why heaven is an endless, cozy warehouse, where nothing you loved is gone, where you are whole because you get everything back, and by everything, I mean you.

Robert Calvin Bland (Robert Calvin Brooks; January 27, 1930 – June 23, 2013), known professionally as Bobby "Blue" Bland, was a blues singer. He developed a sound that mixed gospel with the blues and R&B. He was described as "among the great storytellers of blues and soul music... [who] created tempestuous arias of love, betrayal, and resignation, set against roiling, dramatic orchestrations, and left the listener drained but awed." He was sometimes referred to as the "Lion of the Blues" and as the "Sinatra of the Blues". His music was influenced by Nat King Cole. He was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame in 1981, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1992, and the Memphis Music Hall of Fame in 2012. He received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 1997. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame described him as "second in stature only to B.B. King as a product of Memphis' Beale Street blues scene." #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn6wkepriNF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

the ceo and chair of sony music australia and new zealand personally calling and getting daryl braithwaite to stay an extra day because harry wanted him… and then the polite but transactional way daryl was treated…

this is probably just normal music industry stuff, with daryl being a sony artist and seasoned professional. but he’s also an aria hall of fame inductee and a national treasure. it feels so fake and entitled. and it shows how much power harry has inside sony.

It’s a circus, and Harry is the main freak show. Everyone else just waits for the summons from the clown car.

Seems pretty humiliating for a seasoned performer, but I suppose everyone knows which side the bread is buttered.

Anyway, it’s good to know the old circus animals can still jump through the same dehumanizing hoops. And also, that abject humiliation for a “national treasure” is just one phone call away.

Kind of funny to think about praise from Van Morrison, Stevie Nicks, Elton John, Paul McCartney etc. Like who called them 😂😂😂

Nick Cave The Bad Seeds - "From Her To Eternity" - Live 1989

Live 1988

Nicholas Edward Cave AO FRSL (born 22 September 1957) is an Australian singer, songwriter, poet, lyricist, author, screenwriter, composer and occasional actor. Known for his baritone voice and for fronting the rock band Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Cave's music is characterised by emotional intensity, a wide variety of influences and lyrical obsessions with death, religion, love and violence.

Born and raised in rural Victoria, Cave studied art in Melbourne before fronting the Birthday Party, one of the city's leading post-punk bands, in the late 1970s. In 1980 they evolved towards a darker and more challenging sound that helped inspire gothic rock, and acquired a reputation as "the most violent live band in the world". Cave became recognised for his confrontational performances, his shock of black hair and pale, emaciated look. The band broke up soon after moving to Berlin in 1982, and Cave formed Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds the year after, later described as one of rock's "most redoubtable, enduring" bands. Much of their early material is set in a mythic American Deep South, drawing on spirituals and Delta blues, while Cave's preoccupation with Old Testament notions of good versus evil culminated in what has been called his signature song, "The Mercy Seat" (1988), and in his debut novel, And the Ass Saw the Angel (1989). In 1988, he appeared in Ghosts... of the Civil Dead, an Australian prison film which he both co-wrote and scored.

The 1990s saw Cave move between São Paulo and England, and find inspiration in the New Testament. He went on to achieve mainstream success with quieter, piano-driven ballads, notably the Kylie Minogue duet "Where the Wild Roses Grow" (1996), and "Into My Arms" (1997). Turning increasingly to film in the 2000s, Cave wrote the Australian Western The Proposition (2005), also composing its soundtrack with frequent collaborator Warren Ellis. The pair's film score credits include The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007), The Road (2009) and Lawless (2012). Their garage rock side project Grinderman has released two albums since 2006. In 2009, he released his second novel, The Death of Bunny Munro, and starred in the semi-fictional "day in the life" film 20,000 Days on Earth (2014). His more recent musical work features ambient and electronic elements, as well as increasingly abstract lyrics, informed in part by grief over his son Arthur's 2015 death, which is explored in the documentary One More Time with Feeling (2016) and the Bad Seeds' 17th and latest album, Ghosteen (2019).

Cave maintains The Red Hand Files, a newsletter he uses to respond to questions from fans. He has collaborated with the likes of Shane MacGowan and ex-partner PJ Harvey, and his songs have been covered by a wide range of artists, including Johnny Cash ("The Mercy Seat"), Metallica ("Loverman") and Snoop Dogg ("Red Right Hand"). He was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame in 2007, and named an Officer of the Order of Australia in 2017.

Live 1988

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds (1984–present)

The band with Cave as their leader and frontman has released seventeen studio albums. Pitchfork Media calls the group one of rock's "most enduring, redoubtable" bands, with an accomplished discography. Though their sound tends to change considerably from one album to another, the one constant of the band is an unpolished blending of disparate genres, and song structures which provide a vehicle for Cave's virtuosic, frequently histrionic theatrics. Critics Stephen Thomas Erlewine and Steve Huey wrote: "With the Bad Seeds, Cave continued to explore his obsessions with religion, death, love, America, and violence with a bizarre, sometimes self-consciously eclectic hybrid of blues, gospel, rock, and arty post-punk."

Reviewing 2008's Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!! album, NME used the phrase "gothic psycho-sexual apocalypse" to describe the "menace" present in the lyrics of the title track.[23] Their most recent work, Ghosteen, was released in October 2019.

In mid-August 2013, Cave was a 'First Longlist' finalist for the 9th Coopers AMP, alongside artists such as Kevin Mitchell and the Drones. The Australian music prize is worth A$30,000. The prize ultimately went to Big Scary. In a September 2013 interview, Cave explained that he returned to using a typewriter for songwriting after his experience with the Nocturama album, as he "could walk in on a bad day and hit 'delete' and that was the end of it". Cave believes that he lost valuable work due to a "bad day".

Another long one.

Bob Jones University has the enviable reputation of presenting one of the finest cultural series to be offered anywhere in America. Certainly no other university offers as many top quality programs featuring internationally known artists as does the opera, concert, and drama series at BJU.

This season's programs will include a grand opera, two Shakespearean productions, a chamber symphony, a concert pianist, a musical drama, a vocal duet, a folk singer, and Verdi's "Requiem.

Nine programs are included in the series, and a limited number of season subscriptions are still available at the programs and productions office for $12.50 each. Individual tickets to the one-night performances will not be available.

All programs are presented in Rodeheaver Auditorium, and curtain time is 8 p.m.

Opening the 1967-68 series Oct. 24 will be Benjamin Britten's moving musical drama, "Curlew River." featuring a company of 25 including first desk players of the Little Orchestra Society and members of the Concert Opera Association of New York. Thomas Scherman will be musical director of the company.

The famed Bob Jones University Classic Players will present Shakespeare's "As You Like It," Thanksgiving Thursday and Friday, Nov. 23 and 24. The Shakespeare repertoire group is listed by the international "Shakespeare Survey" as one of the "noteworthy classic repertoire companies" in the United States.

On Dec. 7 Guiseppe Campora -- the distinguished young leading tenor of the Metropolitan Opera and La Scala, Milan -- joins his talents with one of America's most beautiful and gifted singing actresses, Dorothy Coulter, for a delightful evening of opera arias and duets.

Following a highly successful career in Europe. Campora made his Metropolitan Opera debut in 1955 in the role of Rodolfo in "La Boheme." Miss Coulter, a soprano, also made her debut at the Met in "La Boheme." She has appeared with major opera companies in this country and in Europe and has been featured in leading roles in several productions on NBC-TV opera.

America's first permanent chamber symphony -- the Chamber Symphony of Philadelphia -- will be heard in a concert Feb. 1. The symphony, composed of 36 players, will present a program featuring masterpieces of the baroque and romantic periods as well as compositions by outstanding contemporaries, some of which have been especially commissioned.

Anshel Brusilow, conductor, made his debut as a violinist at Carnegie Hall when he was just 17. He has conducted the world renown Philadelphia Orchestra and other major symphonies. Most recently, he was guest conductor of the National Symphony in Washington, D.C.

'The fifth program of the series will feature Stephen Bishop, American-born prodigy pianist, in a recital March 4. The 26-year-old pianist appeared with the San Francisco Symphony while still in his teens.

On March 28 and 30 the Bob Jones University Opera Association will present a fully staged production of Verdi's opera, "Rigoletto." Guest soloists from the Metropolitan and other leading opera companies include Sherrill Milnes, baritone, as Rigoletto; Doris Yarick, soprano, as Gilda; John Craig, tenor, as the Duke; and Ara Berberian, bass, as Sparafucile.

The latter two singers have appeared in BJU Opera Association productions on previous occasions Mr. Berberian sang in "Faust" in 1964, and Mr. Craig was heard in "Lucia di Lammermoor" in 1965.

The artistry of singer-guitarist Kay Britten has been heralded throughout England and the United States. She will present a recital at BJU April 30. Having a high degree of artistic integrity and devotion to folk music in its original and authentic form, she brings a dimension all her own to folk music. Her unusually large repertoire includes songs in several languages, and she has a particular interest in songs of the British Isles.

A highlight of the university's commencement week activities will be the second production of the season by the BJU Classic Players -- Shakespeare's "King Lear," on May 23 and 28. Dr. Bob Jones Jr., president of the university, will portray the title role.

The ninth and final production of the season will be Verdi's "Requiem," which will be presented May 25 and 27 by the BJU Oratorio Society and Symphony Orchestra. Guest artists singing the solo roles include Walter Fredericks, Peter Harrower, and Miss Antonio Kitsopoulos.

The stars do I my judgment pleasure.

A current member of the Canadian Opera Company Ensemble Studio, Mr. Cairns was recently seen as the Prince of Persia in Turandot, the Witch in Hansel and Gretel, Gamekeeper in Rusalka, and is covering Alfredo in La traviata. He’s performed Don Ottavio in Don Giovanni and Gherardo in Gianni Schicchi with the Centre for Opera Studies in Italy, Liberto in The Coronation of Poppea with Opera Theatre of St. Louis, and Detlef in The Student Prince at the Chautauqua Institution, where he placed first in its Sigma Alpha Iota Competition. Other roles include Count Belfiore in La finta giardiniera, Sam Kaplan in Street Scene, Sam Sharkey/Lumberjack in Paul Bunyan. A force in competition, Mr. Cairns is a semifinalist in the 2022 Metropolitan Opera Eric and Dominique Laffont Competition and a finalist in the 2022 Neue Stimmen Competition. He was the First Prize winner of the 2018 Canadian Opera Company Ensemble Studio Competition and winner of the CBC Music Young Artist Development Prize. Mr. Cairns earned his master’s degree in opera performance at the University of Toronto. Hello, dear Matthew! Thank for accepting my invitation. It is such a pleasure for me to have you interviewed! You have just returned as a winner of the 2022 Metropolitan Opera Eric and Dominique Laffont Competition. How was this experience for you and what lessons have you learned from it? Winning the Metropolitan Opera Eric and Dominique Laffont Competition was a wild ride. To have the chance to sing on that famed stage, where many greats have sung, and be supported by one of the worlds finest orchestras was truly a dream. What set this competition apart from others was the level of support that we were given from the Metropolitan Opera Staff. Upon arrival to New York City they made it their priority to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed to succeed. We had coaching’s and dramatic sessions to make sure we were prepared and felt comfortable singing in such a large space. They also gave us tickets to all the Operas that were being performed at the Met during our stay. It was a surreal experience to watch a production from the audience and then to sing on the stage shortly after. I learned no amount of mental preparation could calm my nerves, and to trust my voice in a large hall. How do you prepare for an important competition? What do you have in mind when choosing the repertoire and maybe the most important question, how do you deal with stage fright? I normally like to make sure my arias are well prepared and feel comfortable to sing even when I might feel exhausted or stressed. As far as repertoire selection goes, I choose arias that I love, that I know an audience will love. Sometimes competitions have restrictive repertoire requirements that make it harder for certain fachs to create a cohesive repertoire package, but my rule of thumb is “Sing what you love to sing, that you know you sing well”. I suffer from stage fright every time I sing. What helps me is to reassure myself that I have done the work and I am ready to show up and do my job. A quick prayer before I go on stage helps, but generally I get quite nervous for competitions, auditions, and performances. reposted from https://opera-charm.com/

Robert Calvin Bland (Robert Calvin Brooks; January 27, 1930 – June 23, 2013) known professionally as Bobby “Blue” Bland, was a blues singer.

He developed a sound that mixed gospel with the blues and R&B. He was described as “among the great storytellers of blues and soul music... [who] created tempestuous arias of love, betrayal, and resignation, set against roiling, dramatic orchestrations, and left the listener drained but awed.” He was sometimes referred to as the “Lion of the Blues” and as the “Sinatra of the Blues”. His music was influenced by Nat King Cole.

He was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame (1981), the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (1992), and the Memphis Music Hall of Fame (2012). He received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award (1997). The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame described him as “second in stature only to B.B. King as a product of Memphis’ Beale Street blues scene.” #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence
