Photo: Ernö Rapee (1891 -1945)  was Hungarian-born American symphonic conductor in the first half of the 20th Century whose prolific career spanned both classical and popular music. His most famous tenure was as the head conductor of the Radio City Symphony Orchestra, the resident orchestra of the Radio City Music Hall, whose music was also heard by millions over the air.
A virtuoso pianist, Rapée is also remembered for popular songs that he wrote in the late 1920s as photoplay music for silent films. When not conducting live orchestras, he supervised film scores for sound pictures, compiling a substantial list of films on which he worked as composer, arranger or musical director.

The first of a series of podcasts, the ART IN LIFE series by JA International Theatre where we explore the subtle mystifications through which the written and spoken words in poetry, verse, prose or drama and movies affect our lives, inform our world views and finally by giving us a language to describe our universe, help build it.  This series will consist of freewheeling interviews with artists on how words have impacted them at critical moments of their life. 
In this first podcast,  we interview Dan Cotterall, a Lisbon based Franco-New Zealander actor,  writer and theater manager on the inimitable influence of Ted Hughes on his life, thoughts and viewpoints.

Cavafy And Hirshfield: The Art in Life series Podcast

A set of 11 original piano nocturnes by pianist composer, Phil Best. 

Nocturnes are dark, melancholic virtual love songs full of pathos and longing. Each one feels like an intimate soliloquy about unrequited love, heartbreak and desire.

Inspired by Chopin's masterpieces of this genre, Phil explores a more contemporary approach, mixing in jazz, blues, pop and filmic elements.
