Anniversary, Concert, Family, life, New Year, Vienna

Today 1 January is a quiet day, it’s 5C outside, no snow, no wind, no one in the street, grey skies, all is shut down. This year 2022 marks for my family an anniversary of sorts, our ancestor arrived at Quebec City on a French War Ship with his regiment in 1662 some 360 years ago. He was part of many French Regiments sent to Canada to put an end to the Indian wars threatening Montreal and other settlements. He established himself, had a farm and the rest is history.

I listened to the New Year’s Day concert from Vienna, it was nice but had none of the glamour of previous years, the concert hall was half empty and there was little in terms of flower mass decorations usually found for this concert. It was all very restrained no doubt due to the difficult situation with Covid. However I like the part where they follow this little butterfly from the greenhouses of the Schonbrunn Palace and all over Austria along the Danube etc. The close up of this fragile butterfly landing on beautiful flowers is enchanting. This is a country we always love spending time in, Austria is so civilized.

I do pray that 2022 will see us return to a more normal situation. However as with Climate Change I fear that we are in for some turbulence and rough seas ahead. The future will not be for the faint of heart.

So let’s look forward in a positive manner. I read this saying today and I thought well suited for the year to come.

“Let it be in your heart that every day of the new year will be the best day of the year”

Best Wishes!

New Year’s Day

2020, art., life, Music, Musikverein, Vienna

Today is Levée Day in PEI and in the Capital Charlottetown 44 Levée took place. This year I worked at my Club to greet our visitors who came to pay their respects. We had 750 visitors, I shook hands with all of them and wished them all a Happy New Year. In the Ballroom, Moose Milk was served with a very generous dose of Jamaican Rum. Lots of fruit cake and cookies also and the Club Bar was open. The great Parlour had a roaring fire going and our house musician played on the piano waltzes and other dance music of the 1880 to 1900 period. We also had for good measure lots of sunshine streaming into the large Italianate windows. It is amazing to see so many people all in the space of 3 hours.

A very funny incident, it really made me smile, one of our visitor was upstairs in what use to be the bedrooms and office of the Lowden Family. On the wall an old telephone, the model is the type we all had in our kitchens in the 1960-70, it is black and rotary dial. It still works perfectly but for a person under 35 it gets strange looks. This person was I would say about 25 years old and she said to her friend; my grandmother had such a phone in her kitchen but I don’t think I know how to use it. I told her it still worked fine, she was amazed, how could that be. So I told her to go and try it,  she picked up the receiver and heard the dial tone. Her friend then told her what number to dial and bingo they got to speak to another family member in town. Much amazement and giggling over this experience. I could not help laughing at this, so very strange to me, I went in my lifetime from the rotary, to touch tone to pocket phones to iPhones with face time. Makes you feel old but at the same time think that you have lived through a lot of change.

When I came home I went to look for the Vienna New Year’s day Concert from the Musikverein, which celebrates 150 years in 2020. The Conductor this year was the Latvian Andris Nelsons.  Also this year the Salzburg Music Festical is 100 years old, when the Salzburg Festival in Austria was first held, in the summer of 1920, it consisted of just half a dozen performances of Hugo von Hofmannsthal’s morality play “Jedermann” (“Everyman”). Since then, the festival has grown into one of the grandest events on the world’s cultural calendar. It will celebrate its centennial in the summer with more than 200 performances in 44 days of operas, symphonies, concerts and plays. Music with a local angle by Mozart (Salzburg’s favorite son) and Richard Strauss (one of the festival’s founders) will be featured. We went to Salzburg for the Festival several years in a row and taking in up to 3 concerts a day, all in formal dress.

In 2020 it is also Ludwig Van Beethoven’s 250th Birthday born in Bonn, North Rhine Westphalia in today’s Germany and spent most of his life in Austria.

Here is an excerpt of today’s concert. If you wonder about all the masses of flowers in the Golden Saal they are provided by the Public Works dept of the City of Vienna each year.

Then for dinner, Will cooked a very tender pork loin and ratatouille with roasted potatoes and we had a bottle of champagne, it is New Year’s Day after all!

Hope you had a good New Year and that it will continue all during the year.

Seid umschlungen Millionen • Johann Strauss II composed and dedicated to his friend Johannes Brahms in 1892.

great conductors

Conductors, France, Francis Poulenc, George Pretre, Maria Callas, Vienna, Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra

Last night at home we were talking about George Prêtre, the great French conductor and how he was a favourite with the Vienna Philarmonic Orchestra. This morning I discovered he had died last night at the age of 92 at his chateau de Vaudricourt à Naves near Castres in France. The XXth Century gave us some very great conductors, to me they are people who do not beat time but feel the music and try to get the orchestra to share in that feeling and show the melodic nuance in a composition. This is not easily achieved and few can do it, he certainly could.

He will conduct the premier of Francis Poulenc, La Voix Humaine in 1959. He will also work with Maria Callas for many years. He will conduct during his long career all the great orchestras of the world. He became a favourite conductor in Vienna. He had style and pleased the public, a man of great intelligence and an athlete who practiced judo and karate. He once said, with a sly smile, that as Conductor he never had to use it on any of his musicians.

2017, Charlottetown, New Year, party, PEI, Prosit NeuJahr, Tracadie, Vienna, Wien

We were at this great party to usher in the New Year with two Fireworks display on Grafton Street in front of the Legislature, on a beautiful if slightly cold evening, drinking champagne in our tuxedos. Had the most wonderful food all prepared in great variety by our friend Pico.  We will remember fondly this party for years to come as it was our first New Year’s Eve on PEI.

This will be a lazy morning since it is raining and we have high winds. So let’s listen as tradition dictates to the New Year Day Concert from the Musikverein with the Vienna Philarmonic this year under the baton of Maestro Gustavo Dudamel in Vienna. Prosit NeuJahr!

Austria, Empire, Europe, Guapa, Middle East, Saleem Haddad, Stefan Zweig, Vienna

I have this old habit, in the evening before going to sleep I like to read a little. Most of my reading is done in bed at night, I find this soothing and it helps me to fall asleep. In the last few weeks I have read two books by Stefan Zweig, (1881-1942), born in Vienna in a wealthy privilege family and died in Petropolis, Brazil in a suicide pact with his second wife Lotte Altmann. He was a famous writer, journalist, biographer of the first part of the 20th century and his books remain to this day great to read and give the reader wonderful insight. He also knew and was friends with all the great intellectuals of that time and do not be surprise to see him associated with so many famous people it is head spinning, Sigmund Freud, Romain Rolland, Richard Strauss, Rainer Maria Rilke and many others.

The first book was the celebrated biography of Marie-Antoinette the ill-fated Queen of France. I have already written on it in a previous post and I recommend it if you want to go beyond the fiction and the Hollywood version of her life.

The other book is the last one ever written by Zweig, The World of Yesterday. He mailed the manuscript to his editor the day he and his second wife committed suicide in Brazil.

14171321.jpeg

Zweig describes himself as a European in the old world sense and at the same time a European of what we know today as the European Union. He is also an enigma for us who live at the end of the 20th and now in the 21 century. He was married for many years to Frederike Maria Von Winternitz but never mentions her in this book which covers the period from his birth in 1881 to 1925. The reader could be excused for thinking that Zweig was single, he divorced her in 1938 and she lived on until 1971.  Was he a very private man? I do not know, in The World of Yesterday he certainly speaks volume about himself and his famous friends, his work, the people he knew and frequented, his travels, about being an assimilated and integrated Jew in the Austro-Hungarian Empire and he describes and analyses in minute detail the society of the time, a society which has totally disappeared now and lives on in print. You have to imagine a world, Europe, the old Empires ruled for hundreds of years by Princes and Sovereigns and then the total collapse in 1919, everything changing forever in a radical  manner with the rise in Europe of Fascism and Bolchevism in Russia.

Zweig misses the old world, what he calls the Age of Golden Security assured by an aged Emperor (Franz-Joseph) over a vast Empire comprising dozen nationalities, languages and various religions. He explains the commercial reasons for the First World War, a war promoted by French and German Armament dealers and British and German competing merchant marine. Decades of Peace in Europe, the last war was in 1870 and lasted just over 3 weeks had lulled people into believing that not much would happen in 1914. No one could imagine that by November 1918 their world would no longer exist.

Zweig did spend part of the war in Zurich in neutral Switzerland, a land of plenty in a sea of wont. He describes a scene at the end of the war in 1918, the Kaiser in Germany has already gone into exile in Holland. Zweig stands on the platform of the Train Station at the Border with Switzerland on the Austrian side, everything around him is tattered and the people look tired and sad, the defeat and fall of the Austrian Empire is dawning on them. Zweig notices how the Station is becoming crowded with people, officials and Austrian soldiers though no trains is expected, he notices a beautiful black train of highly polished cars pulling slowly into the station, it’s the Imperial train, at the window stands Emperor Karl and his wife Empress Zita who are leaving Austria and going into exile, He refused to abdicate and simply left quietly, ending the 900 year rule of the Hapsburg dynasty, Zweig notices how everyone is silent and looks embarrassed, Zweig felt at that moment that this was truly the end. The end of it for him, for the world he had known, yes and how he then maybe went into a state of deep melancholy. The years that followed will see the rise of economic difficulties, Fascism in many European countries, the great depression, anti-semitism, nazism, the rise of Communism and then the Second World War. Of course for Zweig life goes on but on a different track, having the financial means he then travels abroad fleeing the chaos of the new and territorially small Republic of Austria, he will go to England as Freud did, to North America and finally to Brazil. Despite having a new young wife Lotte Altmann, he feels he cannot re-invent himself and fears aging, the past of Old Europe haunt him.

zweigvilla_20070329_002.jpg

Zweig’s Villa in Salzburg on Kapuzinerberg 5, it is a private house today.

I find Zweig to be a complex person, a highly educated, refined person, he seems to be several people at once, the great writer, the friend of the cognoscenti, living in a world at the top of the social pyramid but then the other person appears emotional, overly sentimental, detached, revealing little of his personal life, this may be simply his 19th century sensibilities, gentile upbringing of not burdening people with personal details, something unknown to us in our world of the selfie.

SHaddad2_©-Sami-Haddad.jpg

The other book I read was just published by a first time author Saleem Haddad, a young thirty something man. Saleem Haddad is a writer and aid worker. He was born in Kuwait City to an Iraqi-German mother and a Palestinian-Lebanese father, and has lived in Jordan, Cyprus, Canada and the U.K. He has worked with Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders) and other international organizations in Yemen, Syria, Iraq, Libya, Lebanon, and Egypt. He and his partner have a greyhound, Jack and live in London.

His book published in March is entitled Guapa, the name of a Gay underground bar. I found this novel after a friend of mine who owns a bookstore café in Jordan recommended it to me. I liked the book instantly, the story is fast moving and happens in an unnamed Arab country, I was convinced it was Damascus the Capital of Syria but the author Haddad based the city where the protagonist lives on several cities, Amman, Beirut, Cairo. He does this on purpose and it works very well, though the President Dictator reminded me of Bashar Al-Assad and his wife Asma in their description in this book, this is why I thought it might be Syria.

Guapa gives a very accurate portrait of Arab life, family and society, I recognized it instantly, I came to care about Rasa and the people around him.  Haddad says; Not naming the country also allows the story to take on a metaphorical nature: I really didn’t want to write a book that would be sold as an anthropological or political ‘study’ of one country. Instead I wanted to draw on common themes young Arabs across the region could relate to, regardless of their background. The book also shows in the narrative of the story that Arabs are not a monolithic group and the region is populated by many other people who are not Arabs.

The story of the book is about Rasa, a twenty-something-year-old gay man living in an unnamed Arab country, as he negotiates family, societal expectations, queerness, love, police brutality, authoritarianism, decorum, revolution, imperialist narratives, and Islamist extremism—all in the space of twenty-four hours. Throughout Rasa’s journey, the reader is thrown back into the losses, definitions, redefinitions, and rebellions that orbit his life. I would recommend reading this book for anyone who wishes to understand this part of the World and the people living in it. As they say, We are not in Kansas anymore.
