Seiji Ozawa: 8 Essential Recordings
  + stars: | 2024-02-09 | by ( Javier C. Hernández | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
He also left behind an extensive and varied discography: recordings of warhorses like Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 6 with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, which he led for 29 years, as well as of more obscure pieces, such as Henri Dutilleux’s “The Shadows of Time.” While his live performances sometimes drew mixed reactions from critics, many of his recordings — from Boston, Berlin, Japan and elsewhere — are considered standards. “Even at my age, you change,” Ozawa, then in his 70s, told the author Haruki Murakami. “And practical experience keeps you changing. This may be one of the distinguishing features of the conductor’s profession: The work itself changes you.”

OVIEDO, Spain (AP) — American actor Meryl Streep on Friday received Spain’s prestigious Princess of Asturias Arts Award at a ceremony presided over by the Spanish royal family in the northern city of Oviedo. “Empathy may be a radical form of outreach and diplomacy useful in other theaters of endeavor” she said. Others honored at the ceremony were bestselling Japanese author Haruki Murakami, who won the literature prize and U.S. biologists Jeffrey Gordon, Peter Greenberg and Bonnie Bassler, who received the scientific and technical research prize. Sports award winner, Kenyan marathon legend Eliud Kipchoge, said in a speech that running for him was much more than a physical exercise. “We must make our world a running world, because a running world is a happy world.

OVIEDO, Spain (AP) — For Japanese author Haruki Murakami, the bloody conflict in the Gaza Strip is a horrendous example of how our world is divided by walls, both physical and metaphorical. And I’m also aware that the Palestinian situation that I saw when I visited Israel is miserable,” Murakami told The Associated Press in an interview. “In my novels, walls are real walls. But of course they are also metaphoric walls at the same time,” the 74-year-old writer said. “When I’m writing a novel, my head is filled with bugs, but I still write novels using the brain,” he said.

Rallies and petition drives have protested against the plan that will also tear down and replace the Meiji Jingu Stadium, built in 1926, which is now home to the Yakult Swallows team. The council and its national panel for Japan also called on Mitsui Fudosan and other developers to withdraw immediately. In June, the Mitsui Fudosan-led group launched a website for queries from the public, aiming to build "understanding and empathy" for the project.

[1/2] An aerial view shows Meiji Jingu Stadium and Chichibunomiya Rugby Stadium in Tokyo, Japan December 3, 2022. The U.N. cultural agency's panel, the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS), urged the government to review the plan. Rallies and petition drives have also voiced opposition to the plan, which includes the demolition and replacement of the Meiji Jingu Stadium, built in 1926, and now home to the Yakult Swallows team. Ruth, Gehrig and five other baseball Hall of Fame inductees were part of an All American team that played at Meiji Jingu Stadium during their barnstorming Japanese tour.

In the redevelopment plan, Meiji Jingu and a neighboring venue, the Chichibunomiya Rugby Stadium, which opened in 1947 and was used as a soccer venue during the 1964 Summer Olympics, would be demolished in phases. The entire project, which includes skyscrapers and a hotel, is scheduled to be completed by 2036. At that point it will have been just over 100 years since a lineup of M.L.B. stars played five games at Meiji Jingu during a tour of Japan in 1934. Ruth put on a show by hitting 13 home runs, five of them in Meiji Jingu.
TOKYO, Jan 17 (Reuters) - Thousands of baseball fans have signed a petition to save an iconic Tokyo stadium nearly a century old where Babe Ruth once played and which inspired best-selling author Haruki Murakami to first pick up a pen. "The citizens of Tokyo are going to regret it," said Robert Whiting, who has written books on Japanese baseball and who over the weekend started an online petition to save the stadium, which "reeks of history." "They're going to lose a really beautiful, quiet, relaxing spot and a great place to watch a baseball game," he told Reuters. Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig played there in 1934 as part of a Japanese tour, making the stadium only one of a handful remaining where Ruth played. By noon on Tuesday, Whiting's petition, addressed to Tokyo governor Yuriko Koike and several others, had almost 10,000 signatures.
Elefantul este animalul care a devenit simbol reprezentativ în numeroase legende și element cognitiv al budismului. În arta feng-shui-ului însă, aduce noroc, iar în mitologie și religie este un simbol al onoarei. #3 „Povestea cu elefantul vizirului” de Ivo AndricLa Travnik se instalează noul vizir, un tiran anonim însetat de sânge. Povestea cu elefantul vizirului, care dă și titlul volumului, nu este doar o parabolă despre rădăcina răutății omenești, ci o întreagă istorie a suferinței popoarelor iugoslave aflate sub stăpânire otomană. #5 „Cum am împușcat un elefant” de George Orwell„Cum am împușcat un elefant” reunește o sumă de eseuri literare ce oferă cititorilor o perspectivă cuprinzătoare asupra vieții și operei lui George Orwell.
