Emily Skillings - When I Was a Glacier

That Bruegel painting
of hunters returning
in winter, the filmmakers
go nuts for it. A sad rabbit
on a stick & more. It’s like
really in there, tonally—
a male, disappointed
group trudge towards
a more lighthearted
communal flurry, women
and children full of fire
upholding weird roofs
doing the real work.

A moment ago I moved
something (not particularly
large) to the other side
of the table and felt
so old and immense

Alfred Hitchcock’s “Strangers on a Train” (1951)

Voi avete un cor fedele

In 1775 Mozart received a commission to write the substitution aria “Voi avete un cor fedele,” K. 217, for an unknown soprano in an Italian comic opera troupe passing through Salzburg. The aria, which was inserted into Baldassare Galuppi’s comic opera Le nozze di Dorina, was undoubtedly better suited to the unknown soprano’s voice than the original one. In this aria we see an early manifestation of the opera buffa style years before Mozart composed his Italian comic opera masterpieces - Le n...

Hoje na Gulbenkian

O muito aguardado regresso da pianista Martha Argerich ao Grande Auditório Gulbenkian concretiza-se na presente temporada com um concerto, a todos os títulos, especial: não apenas partilhará o palco com o altamente reputado Cuarteto Quiroga, como interpretará a solo, numa rara cedência a esse registo, uma Partita de Bach.
