From the Naxos Blog: Six Sounds of Shakespeare (Mar 20, 2020)

Source: Hogarth Shakespeare March 21 marks the European Day of Early Music. By way of a slightly contorted response to the occasion, I thought we might take a look at William Shakespeare’s influence on composers, not through the contemporary contributions they made to performances of his plays (he lived from 1564 to 1616), but by taking stock of how The Bard has inspired and permeated the output of generations of composers since his day. ...more

From the Naxos Blog: Is there a doctor in the mouse? (May 01, 2020)

Source: The Flemish American As I write this blog, I’m in a lock-down situation in London arising from the Covid-19 epidemic. What was planned as a quick 7-day visit to the capital has turned into a longer-term relationship, since my home base of Thailand has pulled up the drawbridge against returning travellers such as myself. I’m staying in a hotel near London’s Paddington Station, and my permitted daily emergence to do a spot of ...more

SAINT-SAËNS, C.: Ascanio: Ballet / Overtures to Stage Works (Malmö Symphony, Märkl) (8.574033)

Saint-Saëns’ operatic works contain instrumental music of vivacity and charm but have been undeservedly overlooked. Ascanio contains a substantial and elaborate divertissement that fellow composer Reynaldo Hahn termed ‘the entire Renaissance in a few pages’. Les Barbares, a tale of conquest and revenge, includes a vivid Prologue and joyful ballet, while La Princesse jaune with its pentatonic writing, and La Jota aragonese laced with Spanish vitality, show the composer at his most generously carefree.

RACHMANINOV, Sergey: Piano Solo Recordings, Vol. 6 - Victor Recordings (1922-1924) (8.111413)

After the end of his contract with Edison, the period covered in Volume 5 (8.111408), Rachmaninov signed for Victor in April 1920 and recorded for the company for the rest of his life. Victor was keen to record their star pianist in his own compositions, as well as short works by Chopin and popular encore pieces. This volume also contains the very rare test pressing of Le Cygne in Alexander Siloti’s transcription, and the premiere release first take of Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No. 2 first movement, recorded acoustically in 1924.

Zo maak jij van de telefoon een modern marketingkanaal #spon

Online marketeers sturen op conversie data maar vaak ontbreekt hierin een belangrijk kanaal. En dit kanaal is telefonie. Marketeers steken veel geld en energie in het meten en optimaliseren van online campagnes. Zij sturen op KPI’s en ROAS zodat zij precies weten wat elke geïnvesteerde euro oplevert. Maar op het moment dat de telefoon overgaat, tasten veel marketeers in het duister. Dat betekent dat essentiële conversie data ontbreekt bij het optimaliseren van campagnes. Lees verder om erachter te komen hoe je met call tracking je telefonische conversies inzichtelijk krijgt en zo je campagnes kunt optimaliseren op basis van volledige data.

Blended onderwijs, maar in welke verhouding?

De vraag of we na de crisis wel écht terug willen naar de oude manier van werken roept links en rechts emotie op. Het blijkt namelijk nogal af te hangen van de vraag wat je daarmee bedoelt. Velen missen het échte overleg, vooral met collega's, maar voor sommige vormen van digitaal onderwijs blijkt videobellen juist weer een uitkomst. Wat wel werkt en niet zullen we leren, maar ervaring uitwisselen is de eerste stap. NIMA B/C in One Day werkt prima.
