Harsent's direct libretto here is all the difference in the world from Tony Harrison's crude and sickly one for 'Yan Tan Tethera' and is with the music rather than against it. While 'The Mask of Orpheus' has a scale and perfection like no other opera, 'The Minotaur' is technically easier to stage and has a more conventional structure. This makes it more direct than 'The Mask...', with more concentrated sheer sonic power and, dare one say, clearer access into Birtwistle's mastery of music drama. This performance and production is well nigh perfect, horrifying, multi-level, tragic (in the exact sense) but shows hope as well. Ariadne wants to end the presumed slaughter of youths and maidens every 7 years by the Minotaur in his labyrinth but her human side complicates matters (she falls for Theseus) and in Birtwistle's opera we get the viewpoint of the Minotaur. Few sacrificial Athenians have met a bloody end but Theseus is focused on slaying him and the Minotaur knows that it will have to happen. In the layered subtlety of this masterpiece we are drawn into questions of 'that which has been decreed', inevitability, the will of the Olympian gods and goddesses and the instruments of that will. If hope has brief reward the immortals have other fates in store for the key characters and, as is typical in Birtwistle's work, time itself becomes an implied character.

If I waited 17 years for Vineland, I'd be suicidal with disappointment. Mason & Dixon is the true follow up to Gravity's Rainbow. Vineland is atrocious. He did it better with Inherent Vice, the death of the hippie dream, the hypocrisy of former hippies embracing Reaganomics. The reference to the "when to scream 'Geronimo'? Before or after the glass breaks?" with Zoyd Wheeler jumping through a window to get his disability check is just bad. He references Gravity's Rainbow's opening lines in Inherent Vice, with a surfer's scream "coming across the sky." I.V. is just better.

Today in France, Arverns are called "Auvergnats", and now this ancient tribes territory had been melted with the Aedui's territory, mentioned by Gaius Julius Cesar in his book : "Gauls war"... I grew up in a little town called "Romagnat" (Rome is the biggest ), just under the ancient oppidum of Gergovie, where this f****** roman guy was defeated by Vercingetorix, the ultimate leader of an ultimate shout from Gauls to Rome. I used to spend every Fridays and week-ends when I was a kid with a friend or alone klimbing upon the Plateau of Gergovie...those ancient people touch me, and I feel close to them (even if I have a German name who came later by my father, and a very, very old name and morphology, before the celts invasion of France 's territory; by my mother...and I' my one of the tirth's human beings that can drink milk as an adult 😅). In this video we can here more than one Carnix, and see the guy using it by another to carry it...and maybe we can imagine that with proper harnesses, warriors whom role was to play this impressive music instrument were very efficients...we can imagine a lot of things, and this video blowed my mind...thank you mister 😎👍

Being a diva and acting like a moron socially isn't excused by "Geniuses aren't like ordinary ppl," and to call an actor a genius is...odd at best. Actors play make-believe for a living, memorizing lines written by other people and trying to project emotion, all while avoiding, during a live performance, having the audience jeer or throw rotten tomatoes at them. Please use the word genius to describe people who actually are (Leonardo, Newton, and Curie, are). Chefs, actors and Kanye West aren't.

Should poetry exist? If so, whose? What role does the reader play in qualifying the work(s)? What about canon? The gatekeepers? What will AI do to poetry and poetics? If poetry is called poetry, is it poetry for others? Isn't poetry just a product of poetics? Does a static poetics, and thus a static poetry, exist? Whose art? Whose interpretation? Whose world? What function does the context play in the reception of language, the qualification of 'art'? Does art exist? Should it? Why and why not? Is art inevitable? Is miscommunication, exclusion, needed for one thing to be not the other thing? If art is inherently exclusive, what should we exclude? People? Or conventions? Or contexts outside of the now? Please answer these questions...we are trying to find the answer...

I am a Beat Poet and I write to express myself to bring out imagery feelings of love, anger, loss, despair, loneliness and the beauty I see, the injustice, the terrible, the hurt, the abandonment, etc. I only speak for myself. I cannot speak for other Beat poets or artists I can only guess. Maybe this helps you.

"Laughton was a genius, and there is no room for genius in the theatre. He was greater than I was." Laurence Olivier
@elizabethcsicsery-ronay16334 ай бұрын
Olivier is right. I thought Olivier was the greatest I"d ever seen, but I have to admit Laughton was even greater. Good for Olivier to recognise it. Laughton thought he was ugly and fat, but boy, his acting made you fall for him. Marlene Dietrich called him "the sexiest man in the world."

True!! Olivier had the looks vs Laughton had the talent & subtlety.
