Explanation: An intriguing pair of interacting galaxies, M51 is the 51st entry in Charles Messier's famous catalog. Perhaps the original spiral nebula, the large galaxy with whirlpool-like spiral structure seen nearly face-on is also cataloged as NGC 5194. Its spiral arms and dust lanes sweep in front of a companion galaxy (right), NGC 5195. Some 31 million light-years distant, within the boundaries of the well-trained constellation Canes Venatici, M51 looks faint and fuzzy to the eye in direct telescopic views. But this remarkably deep image shows off stunning details of the galaxy pair's striking colors and extensive tidal debris. A collaboration of astro-imagers using telescopes on planet Earth combined over 10 days of exposure time to create this definitive galaxy portrait of M51. The image includes 118 hours of narrowband data that also reveals a vast glowing cloud of reddish ionized hydrogen gas discovered in the M51 system.

Cafe Sperl…

Das Café Sperl ...

ist ein traditionsreiches, denkmalgeschütztes Wiener Kaffeehaus Ecke Gumpendorfer Straße und Lehargasse im 6. Wiener Gemeindebezirk Mariahilf.

1880 eröffnete Jacob Ronacher, Bruder von Anton Ronacher (dem Gründer des bekannten Etablissement Ronacher), ein Kaffeehaus unter dem Namen Café Ronacher im Eckgebäude Gumpendorfer Straße / Lehargasse. Die Ausgestaltung des Lokals im Stile eines Ringstraßen-Cafés mit Parkettboden, Stühlen von Thonet, Marmortischen, Kristallluster und Caramboltischen wurde von den Architekten Wilhelm Jelinek und Anton Groß ausgeführt. Noch im selben Jahr gab Ronacher jedoch das Geschäft auf und verkaufte es an die Familie Sperl, die es unter dem Namen Café Sperl weiterführte. 1884 wurde Adolf Kratochwilla Inhaber des Lokals, behielt aber den inzwischen etablierten Namen bei.

Zu den Stammgästen des Sperl zählten in der Zeit vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg eine kuriose Mischung aus Künstlern – Schriftstellern, Malern, Architekten, Komponisten, Musikern, Schauspielern – und Militärs der nahen k.u.k. Kriegsschule, zu letzteren zählten beispielsweise der spätere Chef des Generalstabs der österreichisch-ungarischen Armee Franz Conrad von Hötzendorf und Erzherzog Josef Ferdinand.

Von 1895 bis 1942 unterhielt der Künstlerbund Hagengesellschaft (aus dem 1900 der Hagenbund hervorgeht) hier seinen Stammtisch. Ebenfalls 1895 fand sich im Sperl der Siebenerclub, dem Josef Hoffmann, Leo Kleinradl, Adolf Karpellus, Maximilian Kurzweil, Koloman Moser, Joseph Maria Olbrich und Friedrich Pilz angehören, die später zusammen mit weiteren Künstlern die Wiener Secession ins Leben riefen. Darüber hinaus zählten in jener Zeit Joseph Lewinsky, Alexander Girardi, Edmund Eysler, Richard Heuberger, Karl Millöcker und Franz Lehár zu den Stammgästen des Sperl.

Nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg nahm das Café seinen Betrieb wieder auf. 1968 übernahm Manfred Staub das Lokal von der Familie Kratochwilla und ließ es 1983 unter Erhaltung des denkmalgeschützten Ensembles renovieren. In den Folgejahren erlangte das Sperl verschiedene Auszeichnungen, so wurde es 1998 zum Österreichischen Kaffeehaus des Jahres ernannt und erhielt 2004 die Goldene Kaffeebohne. Zu den Stammgästen der jüngeren Vergangenheit zählten die Schriftsteller Jörg Mauthe, Robert Menasse und Michael Köhlmeier.

The Johann Strauss Society of Great Britain —  Composers — Richard Heuberger

[clavierissimo]

Italian mezzo-soprano Alice Barbi (1858-1949) with Brahms outside the Imperial Hotel in Vienna, 1892. Brahms wrote about her to Richard Heuberger: "From someone like Barbi we can all learn! Above all the Italian lady sings supremely steadily, with a solid pulse, and projects the structure of every piece she sings."

[mykristeva]

A sabiendas de ser una fuerza histórica inevitable, Schönberg logró ser un clásico sin haber sido reconocido en vida como tal. Como afirma Charles Rosen:  “En la actualidad ya no tenemos la obligación de persuadir a nadie de su importancia, y ni siquiera de valorar su obra; sin embargo, esta no puede entenderse sin tener en cuenta la resistencia que despertó.” La grandeza de Schönberg radica en haber intuido como lo hicieran Bach y Beethoven la esencia de la música y haber explorado su expresividad polifónica hasta los límites de lo audible. Exploración que inicia en esta ópera sin palabras, Noche transfigurada, y que obsesivamente conducirá hasta el opus 21, Pierrot Lunaire. Uno de los más eminentes críticos de la época, Richard Heuberger, pese a ciertas reticencias, reconocía la hondura de dicha exploración en un artículo publicado en Neue Freie Presse (24/03/1903). “Solo  una naturaleza seria y profunda puede encontrar sonidos semejantes, solo un talento extraordinario puede lograr brillar de tal modo en caminos tan oscuros.” Extraordinario estallido de creatividad que tras un periodo de gran silencio cristalizaría en la aritmética de los doce tonos. Inalcanzable búsqueda de la que ya este primer testimonio da cuenta. Inicio de la ascensión expresionista, que él mismo quebraría, abocado como estaba al extremo. “Sin duda las obras de arte importantes son en general las que aspiran a un extremo; las que se destruyen en el intento y cuyas líneas quebradas quedan como cifras de la innombrable verdad suprema.” (Adorno)

The Brewers Association announces this year's 2019 Research Grants recipients including Oregon State University's Pat Hayes.

Press Release

Boulder, Colo.  … The Brewers Association (BA)—the not-for-profit trade association dedicated to small and independent American brewers—today announced the recipients of its 2019 Research and Service Grants Program, designed to further the development of a healthy and sustainable raw materials supply chain. This year, 17 grants totaling $509,058 were awarded to researchers and organizations across the country.

“Ensuring a healthy supply chain is critical for our members,” said Bob Pease, president & CEO, Brewers Association. “As the agricultural landscape weathers a number of challenges, the Brewers Association is proud to fund grants that will enhance beer production and enable a more sustainable future.”  The BA has provided more than $1.7 million in funding for 77 projects since the inception of the grant program in 2015. Funding has supported research and service grants addressing public barley and hop variety development, hop disease and hop aroma, as well as supporting affiliated national and state-level grower organizations.   “We are grateful to the Brewers Association for the grant ‘Stable and Sustainable Dryland Production of High Quality Malt Barley’ to Montana State University,” said Dr. Jamie Sherman, assistant professor, Plant Sciences and Plant Pathology, Montana State University. “The support of the Brewers Association will enable the creation of barley lines with high malt quality under dryland conditions.

Minnie Nast (10 October 1874 – 20 June 1956) was a German soprano. She was born in Karlsruhe and studied at the Karlsruhe Conservatory, making her début at Aachen in 1897. She studied singing at the conservatory in Karlsruhe under Hermann Rosenberg and with Bianca Bianchi in Salzburg. She made her debut in 1897 at the Stadttheater in Aachen. In 1898 she joined to the Hofoper in Dresden. Here she appeared up to the end of her stage career (1919). On 26. 1. 1911 she sang at the Hofoper in Dresden in the premiere of R. Strauss’s "Der Rosenkavalier". She appeared in Dresden also in two other opera premieres of Richard Strauss: on 21. 11. 1901 in "Feuersnot", on 25. 1. 1909 in a small role in ‘’Elektra’’. The other premieres in which she appeared in Dresden were "Das war ich" by Leo Blech (6. 10. 1902), "Alpenkönig und Menschenfeind" by the same composer (1. 10. 1903), "Barfüßele" of Heuberger (1905), "Die Schneider von Schönau" by Jan Brandts-Buys (1. 4. 1916) and "Coeur As"  by Eduard Künneke (1913). She created the title role in G. Puccini’s ‘’Madama Butterfly’’ for Dresden. She made guest appearances in Amsterdam (1902, 1910 as well as in 1917 as Sophie in "Rosenkavalier"), Berlin (1906), Munich, St. Petersburg, Vienna (1906, 1908) and Prague (1903). In 1905 she toured through the USA and Canada. Her stage repertoire included Cherubino in "Figaros Hochzeit", Pamina in "Zauberflöte", Marguerite in ‘’Faust’’, Mimi in ‘’La Bohème’’ and Eva in "Meistersingern". She was married to the Karl von Frenckell, who served as Finnish consul in Dresden. In 1919 she sang for the last time in Dresden in G. Puccini’s ‘’Boheme’’ and then worked as a pedagogue in Dresden.

Alice Laura Barbi (1 June 1858 – 4 September 1948) was an Italian mezzo-soprano and violinist. She had a short, yet successful career as a concert performer. She was a close friend of Johannes Brahms. She began studying music at a young age under her father Henry's guidance. She was a near-prodigy violinist,[2] debuting at the age of seven. After staying in Egypt she studied in Bologna at the Conservatorio Giovanni Battista Martini. She was trained in musical theory and studied multiple languages. She attended lectures by Carlo Verardi. She later dedicated herself to singing, studying with Luigi Zamboni and Alessandro Busi in Bologna and later with Luigi Vannuccini in Florence.  Barbi started her singing career alongside Antonio Cotogni and Giovanni Sgambati in a concert at the Quirinale. Her public debut was a concert organized by impresario Andreoli in Milan on 2 April 1882. The program included four arias from Handel, Haydn, Jommelli, and Rossini. Schumann and Schubert were her specialities for recitals. A review by William Beatty-Kingston in The Theatre praised the two chamber music recitals she gave at Prince's Hall in July 1886. He referred to her as the best cantatrice di camera in Europe and described her singing as "the outcome of a rare and surprising combination of natural gifts and indefatigable cultivation." Her program for the recitals illustrated the development of vocal music since the 17th century. Beatty-Kingston wrote that "All the laudatory adjectives in my vocabulary are insufficient to express my sense of the beauty, grace and poetical feeling characterising her rendering of these compositions, one and all." In addition to singing, she performed as a violinist on occasion. Barbi spent considerable time abroad, traveling to Austria, Germany, England, and Russia. Barbi found an ardent admirer in German composer Johannes Brahms and the pair were close friends in his final years.  Brahms wrote to Austrian composer Richard Heuberger about Barbi toward the close of 1890, relating that "From someone like Barbi we can all learn! Above all the Italian lady sings supremely steadily, with a solid pulse, and... projects the structure of every piece she sings."  Brahms arranged for Barbi to visit Clara Schumann that autumn. The first time he heard her sing one of his songs, he said, "Today I've heard my songs for the first time." Brahms would accompany Barbi around Venice. While their relationship was platonic, it was the subject of gossip and Brahms told Ignaz Brüll that she was the only woman he had wanted to marry after middle age.
