    When we think of Ludwig van Beethoven images of a stormy and passionate but tortured genius are brought to mind, alongside the transformative effect of his work on musical history. All of these things are true, but no artist lives in a vacuum, and even music that opens a portal onto 'the infinite realm of the spirit' has its wider context. Illustrated with music from each period, this enlightening life history tells us about Beethoven's place in society from his earlier career as a fine pianist, his life on the edge of the Napoleonic war, his professional triumphs and many romantic misfortunes, and that famous defiance of deafness and declaration that he would 'seize Fate by the throat'. The musical excerpts included the 'Pathétique' and 'Moonlight' Sonatas, 'Diabelli' Variations, Symphonies Nos. 2,3,6 and 9, 'Emperor' Concerto, Missa solemnis and Fidelio, among many others.

    Michael Magid’s  It’s Not What it Looks Like is a a mix of self deprecating “misunderstandings” and biographical accounts of an upbringing in a mixed cultured environment.  Magid discusses never really accepting an identity; and eventually coming to grips that being mixed (and feeling out of place) is okay. The album was recorded at the Genghis Cohen Theater in West Hollywood, CA.

    Hérémence is home to one of the most imposing examples of 20th century Swiss architecture. The village, remotely situated far from any urban centres, subsisted on agriculture and livestock farming until the construction of the nearby Grande-Dixence hydro-electric dam catapulted it to the forefront of modernity. The use of concrete for this modern masterpiece, the church of St Nicholas, made possible the sculptural volumes in its design. Constructed 1967-1971 to the design of Walter Maria Förderer, its bold architecture is characterised by a succession of voluminous structures and minute attention to detail. It is these innovative qualities which make it such a unique building.

Classic films now become audiobooks with many featuring the original stars from way back when. Here's This Land Is Mine starring Charles Laughton & Maureen O'Sullivan.
