Burnished Bernstein and Cosmic Cacophony Submitted by Lindsay Perigo on Mon, 2018-05-14 03:37
New Zealand's premier Big Band were in outrageously good form in Wellington on Friday and Saturday nights. The New Zealand Symphony Orchestra's hallmark precision and passion, their flagrant virtuosity and sinful zest, were on such shameless display that one feared the arrival of some branch of the Fun Police.
Passive, scared people refusing to act waste the time and money of their bettersSubmitted by Anonymous on Sun, 2018-05-13 20:35
I was reading this discussion of mathematician and hedge fund manager Edward Thorp's book _A Man for All Markets: From Las Vegas to Wall Street, How I Beat the Dealer and the Market_ http://curi.us/2107-i-liked-ed... And one part quoted from the book particularly stood out: True Bigotry Submitted by Kyrel Zantonavitch on Wed, 2018-05-09 23:23
If you criticize a single black, Hispanic, woman, gay, or Muslim today, in the post-1960s era, this is automatically considered an attack upon all of them.
NZ Racism & Unearned Guilt Submitted by Olivia on Wed, 2018-05-09 04:35
By Olivia Pierson I’ve lived in this country for 40-odd years, mostly in areas that would be called white middle-class suburbs. I went to a very middle-class girls’ high school and have held down jobs in a wide variety of fields of employment. I have a circle of friends from many different backgrounds, but never once have I met someone who could truly be called a flat-out racist, i.e, someone who really hates people of a different ethnicity.

The Filth Go After Kenneth Clark and Civilisation Submitted by Grant Jones on Sat, 2018-05-05 00:57
Kenneth Clark (1903-1983) was an eminent, British art historian and museum curator. His most well-known work is the landmark documentary series Civilisation that was aired on the BBC in 1969. He sub-titled the documentary - and the companion book that followed - as "A Personal View." His concentration is on the visual arts that was his forte. He also emphasizes the deep connection between art and religion during most the time-frame covered in the book and documentary.

Berlioz, Debussy and Ravel Things got underway in a rather puzzling fashion on Saturday night at the Fowler. With the obligatory preliminaries over—switch off cell-phones, join the players in the bar for drinks after the show, etc.—the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra appeared to spend the next eight minutes repeating its tune-up routine and not quite succeeding at it.

Momentous MahlerSubmitted by Lindsay Perigo on Mon, 2018-04-09 03:14
It is said of Gustav Mahler that as a conductor he was a despot and a perfectionist. "To him there was no such thing as a minor detail," Harold C. Schonberg writes. "... Mahler would not tolerate inattentive or careless playing. Never in his life did he encounter an orchestra that satisfied him in his search for perfection." After conducting the premiere of his 5th Symphony in 1904, Mahler himself said, "Nobody understood it. I wish I could conduct the first performance fifty years after my death."
