  Según Paolo Bortolameolli, uno de los directores de orquesta más reconocidos e influyentes de su generación, la música clásica ha sido erróneamente asociada a un espectro conservador e inaccesible: un desacierto lamentable que debe ser revocado derribando cualquier tipo de barreras y generando puentes de masificación desde el entusiasmo de sus protagonistas. Con este ánimo, y a través de ensayos tan amenos como perspicaces, Bortolameolli comparte las peripecias de su oficio, momentos de su joven carrera y, de manera sutil y profunda, recorre las obras que lo han maravillado y definido profesionalmente, narrando sus historias, argumentos, anécdotas y particularidades técnicas a través de una entrañable carta dirigida a su hijo.
  
  Rubato es una generosa radiografía de las influencias e inquietudes de un artista y, al mismo tiempo, una invitación a decodificar las grandes piezas musicales mediante nuestra propia interpretación o, en específico, nuestras propias sensibilidades.

  Known for his growling vocals and for the distinct poetry of his lyrics, Tom Waits has amassed over the course of three decades a devoted cult following. The Early Years collects the lyrics—formative and classic—from the first ten albums of this true bard of hard living. A celebration of both his words and of the artist himself, this lyrical biography charts the course from Wait's emotional debut album, Closing Time (1977), to the experimental stirrings in Heartattack and Vine (1991) and One from the Heart (1992). Here the words achieve a new potency, adding further dimension to this singularly gifted artist.

  Big Show The - Episode 10

  As the 1950s dawned America was a colossus militarily, economically and culturally.  It bestrode a globe it was doing so much to shape in its own image.  But it had concerns; the threat of communism.  And for the Movies and Radio there was another concern: the emerging rise of Television. 
   
  For Radio, still in its golden age of mass audiences and star filled programmes, they had a handy solution with ‘The Big Show’.  Its premise was simple but effective.  Take 90 minutes of air-time and fill it with the stars of stage, screen and radio doing comedy sketches, drama extracts and musical numbers. 
   
  It sounds simple enough and aided by a huge budget from NBC it was a success, staffed by the best writers and technical team in the business. 
   
  Hosted by Tallulah Bankhead, with her sharp and acidic wit and her brilliance at ad-libbing ‘The Big Show’ was big entertainment with big stars for a big audience.

  ‘The streets are full of admirable craftsmen, but so few practical dreamers.’ – Man Ray
   
  Welcome to the world of fringe movies. Here, artists have been busy putting queer shoulders to the wheels, or bending light to talk about First Nations rights (and making it funny, to boot), or demonstrating how a personality can be taken apart and put back together, all during a ten-minute movie which might take years to make.
   
  In Practical Dreamers, twenty-seven artists dish about how they get it done and why it matters. The conversations are personal, up close and jargon free, smart without smarting.
   
  Mike Hoolboom talks footage recycling with Alessa Cohene (Supposed To) and Jubal Brown (Life Is Pornography); investigates the documentaries of Donigan Cumming (My Dinner With Weegee); looks at the Middle East with Jayce Salloum (This Is Not Beirut); discusses identity with queer Asian avatars Richard Fung (Dirty Laundry), Midi Onodera (The Displaced View) and Ho Tam (The Yellow Pages), and First Nations vets Kent Monkman (Blood River) and Shelley Niro (Honey Moccasin); and addresses the visions of Peter Mettler (Gambling, Gods and LSD).
