THE MOZART EFFECT: “MUSIC FOR THE SOUL”

THE MAGIC FLUTE” BY MOZART: ANYTIME, ANYWHERE!

One of the best musicians of all time. Just divine. What is your favorite Opera and why?

“THE MAGIC FLUTE” by Mozart

“Papageno tries to hang himself on a tree but is saved by the three spirits, who remind him that if he uses his magic bells he will find true happiness (e.g. with Papagena).”

QUEEN OF THE NIGHT ‘ARIA’: THE “EVIL QUEEN” ARCHETYPE? (Mozart)

“Mirror, mirror of mine, is there anyone more beautiful than me? The “Evil Queen” is obsessed with her own beauty and seeks constant validation, doing so much as standing before a magic mirror, to confirm her as the most beautiful every morning.”


‘CARMEN’ BY BIZET: “CARNAL LOVE’ — BETTER THAN DAYTIME SOAP OPERAS

Aria: “L’amour est un oiseau rebelle”


BALLERINAS, THE DANCING ANGELS: JUST CAN’T TAKE OUR EYES OFF OF THEM. WHAT IS “SWAN LAKE” ALL ABOUT? IT IS ABOUT THE STRUGGLE BETWEEN LIGHT & DARKNESS

“Taking a solitary walk by the lake, the young Princess Odette encounters the wicked Von Rothbart. Overcome with fear, she turns and runs in the hope of escaping his evil power. However, she is not quick enough, and Von Rothbart casts a spell on Odette, transforming her into a swan.”

OPINION January 2025

LANGUAGE IS A VIRUS: SPREAD LOVE, NOT HATE

“In a sense, every form of expression is imposed upon one by social factors, one’s own language above all.” (Edward Sapir)

“During the 1960s William S. Burroughs developed his thesis that the word – language – is quite literally a virus. Much of Burroughs’ writing was a working through of the implications of this theory for understanding human subjectivity and intervening in its (re)production.”

Linguistic anthropologists often “draw comparison(s) to how viruses spread and replicate, suggesting that language can similarly infect individuals and populations, rapidly changing their communication patterns and cultural norms through transmission and adaptation, often referencing the idea that languages can spread across regions and evolve over time without a single, centralized control, much like a biological virus.” SPREAD LOVE, NOT HATE

HOW LONG WILL THIS PANTOMIME LAST? *THE DONALD TRUMP REALITY SHOW*

“I paint objects as I think them, not as I see them”  (Picasso)

“The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls” (Picasso)

Starring: Donald J. Trump – Season 2 – “Grand Finale” (The final, exciting, and often spectacular part of an event or performance)

Reality Show Highlights:

While President Trump appears to be energetic and motivated by patriotic sentiments and love for his Country, this House believes his questionable principles and visible mental instability are real challenges to the successful implementation of the “America First” Program. Incongruent tariff threats, counter-productive mass deportation threats, overwhelmingly executive orders, the malignant “normalization” of foul language, the ill-treatment of the (free/independent) press, and the abhorrent ‘spirit of vengeance’ and political persecution aren’t indicators of a “peaceful and prosperous” path ahead. For the record, this House (also) believes that the majority of Trump’s supporters are people of truly good intentions who believed in his “campaign promises” without checking the “fine print”.
