Ein Interview mit Ruth Baldinger, Schweizer Bildhauerin
Bill: In this week’s show visit a Swiss artist, Ruth Baldinger whose exhibition with an interesting group of women artists Susanne Nielsen visited this summer, Ruth spoke about her sculptures, many made of stone and later made with a mixture of concrete and wire . Her sometimes serious and more recently, playful pieces are kinetic, parts of them can be rearranged by the work’s new owner.
We would like to also invite you to join us at the opening of the Sarasota opera season, where Die Fledermaus , Johann Strauss Jr’s famous light opera will begin the season on November first.
Liebe Hoerer, ich darf Ihnen heute die Schweizer Kuenstlerin Ruth Baldinger vorstellen, deren Werke ich diesen Sommer in der Naehe von Zuerich hoch ueber dem Greiffensee in einer Galerei sah und mit der ich dann eine Unterhaltung fuehrte, ueber ihren Werdegang als Bildhauerin, und ueber ihre Ideenwelt.
Dass die Ausstellung “Alte Schachteln” hiess, bedeutete viel zur Thematik, aber soll Sie nicht von der Ernsthaftigkeit der einzelnen Arbeiten aus Beton,Eisen und Holz ablenken. Sie waren alle sehens- und erfahrenswert. Ich war angetan.
Wir moechten Sie auch auf die Premiere der Sarasota Opernsaison mit der Strauss Oper Die Fledermaus aufmerksam machen, kommen Si emit wenn sie am 1.November 2013 beginnt und rufen Sie gleich fuer Karten an. www.sarasotaopera.org.

Interview mit der Schweizer Bildhauerin Ruth Baldinger
Vor ca. fuenfundzwanzig Jahren entflammte sie, Ruth Baldinger, schweizer Kuenstlerin, fuer die Arbeit der Bildhauerrei, die sie zusammen mit einem Gefaehrten in Zimbabwe, Afrika fuer sich mit entdeckte. Inzwischen gibt es Werke nicht nur aus dem spaeter 17 Tonnen von dort in die Schweiz gebrachten Serpentin.
Spielerisch und leicht geht es derzeit zu, und dass sie und ihre 8 Kolleginnen sich selbst nicht immer zu Ernst nehmen, geht aus der Ausstellung und vor allem dessen Titel hervor “Alte Schachteln”, was sich auf den Behaelter, aber auch auf den Menschen beziehen koennte. Ich sprach mit Ruth und lernte einen interessanten Menschen kennen, den ich Ihnen nun vorstellen darf.

Freuen Sie sich naechste Woche auf unser Interview mit Sean Anderson, Barriton aus South Carolina, der Dr. Eisenstein in dieser Operette singt und spricht.
The Counselor ist diese Woche unser ganz grosser Filmtip! Geschrieben ist das drehbuch (diesmal keine Romanvorlage von ihm) von Pulizer Prizegewinner Cormac McCarthy, der schon viele Filmstoffe gesorgt hat,besonders die dunkle Seite des Lebens beleuchtet. Wie ein Theaterstueck laeuft diese Geschichte eines in Geldschwierigkeiten geratenen Rechtsanwaltes im Kreise ganz weniger nicht minder intensiver Gegener und scheinbarer Partner , die auf seiner Seite stehen, ab. Bildschoene Nahaufnahmen, ein Gedicht an schoenen Frauen und markanten Maenner Portraits, dazwischen schoenste Armani-Fashion und sogar zwei Cheetas, die elegant und sehr symbolisch fuer die Jaeger, die menschlichen, stehen, und wie diese endlich in eine Art unbestimmte Zukunft aufbrechen. Star und Superbesetzung mit Michael Fassbender als dem Counselor, Javier Bardem wieder einmal als Zentralfigur und undurchsichtig wie er auffaellig spielt, Penelope Cruz, eine elegante und zwielichtige Cameron Diaz, Brad Pitt in Cowboykluft.

to reach out to the community, make the orchestra more accessible and enhance
that experience for concertgoers. We hope this new initiative will
provide an opportunity for more adventuresome music lovers to see and hear a
concert from our musicians’ unique perspective. The on-stage seating
option will also give people a glimpse into the backstage area of what goes on
just prior to a concert as well as some of the preparations musicians are
making just before going on stage to perform.”
