Farah: Tiny Klayman Rally Was 'A Show Of Force By The American People' That Will Save The Country
Earlier this month, WorldNetDaily editor Joseph Farah wrote that "millions of tea-party activists are just waiting, like me, for an invitation to come to Washington to show the world some Americans still care about the principles upon which the nation was founded." He got his wish with Larry Klayman's event where, Klayman said, "millions" would "occupy Washington D.C." for a "Second American Revolution." Farah even spoke at the rally.
Of course, the rally was a complete bust. Only around one hundred Tea Party activists showed up, far from the millions Klayman predicted would "occupy parks, sidewalks, public areas" until Obama resigned or was forced out of office.
But Farah was so inspired by the tiny rally that he believes it will launch a new anti-Obama movement, lamenting that the media refuses to cover the "growing undercurrent of rebellion." In a column this week, he describes the gathering as an event where "hundreds rallied near the White House to make the case for what amounts to a second American revolution through a show of force by the American people."
"There's a growing recognition that America is nearing the point of no return," Farah writes.
Nobody is yet daring to address it in what is euphemistically called "the mainstream media," but there's a strong and growing undercurrent of rebellion among some of the most accomplished retired military brass in the nation.
Yesterday, retired Maj. General Paul E. Vallely made his most passionate and forceful case for the "forced resignations" of Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Biden and the top leadership in Congress from both parties for policies he says are "destroying America."
He's calling for massive demonstrations in the streets like the kind that brought down the government of Mohamed Morsi in Egypt.
"We are in a war for America," he told WND.
He's right.
And he's not alone in making such dire observations.
Of particular concern to the generals – including Lt. Gen. William G. Boykin, a founder of the Army's elite Delta Force, and Medal of Honor recipient Maj. Gen. Patrick Henry Brady – is what appears to be a purge of the top officer class in the U.S. military characterized by some as part of an all-out attack on America's armed forces.
Yesterday, for the first time, hundreds rallied near the White House to make the case for what amounts to a second American revolution through a show of force by the American people.
Among the speakers at that rally was former Rep. Bob Barr who holds a unique role in American history. He was the very first member of Congress to call for the impeachment of Bill Clinton. It came at a time when the idea of impeachment was considered preposterous by the ruling class and the media. Yet, it came to pass within a relatively short period of time. Today, dozens of members of Congress are already on the record as supporting the impeachment of Barack Obama for high crimes and misdemeanors.
Those crimes have been well chronicled in the book "Impeachable Offenses" by New York Times best-selling authors Aaron Klein and Brenda Elliott, published earlier this year.
There's a growing recognition that America is nearing the point of no return – a historic moment of critical mass, the threshold, the boiling point.
It's all part of a conscious betrayal of the principles upon which America was founded. The only thing that can stop it is a massive outpouring of strength and force by the remnant of Americans who will dare, as America's founders did, to sacrifice their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor to preserve and restore liberty, morality and common sense no matter the cost.
It's time to decide whether you will sit back and watch the American Dream pass quietly into the night or if you will stand up boldly and courageously in response to the clarion calls for an uprising.
It's time. The hour is late. Get mobilized. Be ready.
America may not get another chance.

New insight into the genetic causes of epilepsy
Scientists screening the DNA of large cohorts for known and suspected epilepsy associated genes are finding that, while some genes are implicated in discrete phenotypes or forms of epilepsy, other genes are implicated in a wider range of phenotypes. Although ion channel genes are a common cause of epilepsy, the researchers also report a significant number of epilepsy patients with mutations in non-ion channel genes. The studies have important implications for treatment, prognosis and risk counseling.

The Persuasionists moved to 'graveyard' slot
BBC Two has moved its new sitcom The Persuasionists out of its prime-time schedule. Episode 4 was originally due to be broadcast tonight (Wednesday 3rd February) at 10pm, but the channel has replaced the under-performing sitcom with a repeat of Grumpy Old Women instead. This is a fairly drastic step, as the listing magazines and the schedules printed in many of today's papers still show The Persuasionists as broadcasting tonight, which is likely to lead to some viewer confusion.
BBC Two says the remaining three episodes of the series will now instead be broadcast on Thursday nights at 11:20pm. This post-Newsnight position is often referred to as a 'graveyard slot' by those in the industry: it's a low-profile area of the schedule normally only employed to host repeats of programmes like The Culture Show.
The Persuasionists, a sitcom about creatives who work in the advertising industry, stars Adam Buxton, Simon Farnaby, Iain Lee, Jarred Christmas and Daisy Haggard. It was created by Bwark Productions, the company behind The Inbetweeners, and written by Jonathan Thake, a former advertising executive.
It would be fair to say the sitcom hasn't performed as well as expected, with last week's episode only managing to muster an audience of 330,000 - a figure significantly below the average for BBC Two's 10pm slot. The comedy has also attracted many negative comments. A review in The Stage said: "The Persuasionists is a mess, infused with that embarrassing mania that invariably takes hold of sitcoms free from humour, plot or characterisation", whilst The Guardian labelled the show as "the eighth circle of sitcom hell". Viewers haven't been kind either, with one blogger suggesting that Trading Standards should investigate why the programme has been labelled a comedy. Last week the negative comments on a BBC blog resulted in star Adam Buxton taking time out to record a humourous video response to the criticism.

NBC 5 Investigates has learned the accused Fort Hood shooter Maj. Nidal Hasan receives extraordinary treatment in jail while victims of the attack argue they have been forgotten and mistreated by the U.S. Army.
While a prisoner awaiting trial, Hasan is ferried by helicopter nearly every day, complete with an additional helicopter escort and security detail, for the 20-mile journey between the Bell County Jail and Fort Hood, courtesy of the United States Army and American taxpayers.
The Army told NBC 5 Investigates the daily helicopter rides are necessary because the jail does not have the proper facilities for Hasan to work on his legal defense and transporting Hasan by car creates additional security concerns. Fort Hood does not have its own jail, so Hasan is being held at the Bell County Jail under a special Army contract.
Inside the Bell County Jail, the Army requires the Bell County Sheriff provide a private guard for Hasan at least 12 hours a day. He lives in a special room that, using U.S. Army funds, was equipped to specifically accommodate the injuries he suffered after he was shot by officers responding to the attack on the Army post.

Interest in ancient rhetoric and its relevance to modern society has increased dramatically over recent decades. In North America, departments of speech and communications have experienced a noticeable renaissance of concern with ancient sources. On both sides of the Atlantic, numerous journals devoted to the history of rhetoric are now being published. Throughout, Aristotle's central role has been acknowledged, and there is also a growing awareness of the contributions made by Theophrastus and the Peripatetics. Peripatetic Rhetoric After Aristotle responds to this recent interest in rhetoric and peripatetic theory.
The chapters provide new insights into Peripatetic influence on different periods and cultures: Greece and Rome, the Syrian- and Arabic-speaking worlds, Europe in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, and the international scene today. Contributors to this volume include Maroun Aouad, Lucia Calboli Montefusco, Thomas Conley, Tiziano Dorandi, Lawrence D. Green, Doreen C. Innes, George A. Kennedy, Michael Leff, and Eckart Schutrumpf. This comprehensive analysis of the history of rhetoric ranges from the early Hellenistic period to the present day. It will be of significant interest to classicists, philosophers, and cultural historians.

The true real truth about making funds online is this, most of you reading this write-up right now will never ever make a dime online. Why? Nicely for different motives. For one, your also lazy to really just take what you discover and set it to great use. You would instead acquire an e-book, study via it, set it on your virtual bookshelf and then go acquire another one. Why are you performing this? Most likely due to the fact each book you study tells you about a funds making approach that really involves you performing perform. And given that you are looking for a way to make funds online without having performing any perform, you just proceed to acquire product soon after product.
Whenever you set an work in to the direction of internet site visitors to the product you are capable to normally visit a great price for your greenback. The "effort", when i mentioned in the earlier sentence normally requires promotion with the internet site you place around offer your product, write-up marketing and advertising, promotion on social websites this sort of as Facebook, and publishing with ads online. It's not as hard as it can seem however it does need hard perform on your portion. Don't forget, funds doesn't just slide on us for practically nothing. This even can be stated for Invoice gates as nicely as other actually rich men and women. They'd to perform to get there.
As I mentioned, for a whole lot of men and women $1 million greenback appears pretty unbelievable, so we'll begin with a bit much more plausible number.say $100,000 launch-that's nevertheless a pretty big number, but one most men and women can wrap their heads around.
In addition, when you decide on your approach, you might not have good results with each solitary key phrase or each solitary product. It's not the nature of Internet marketing and advertising – it's the nature of existence.
Lets just take it aside bit by bit and expose how all the self proclaimed gurus propagate this lie.Sunshine goes a long way to support cleaning. Enable begin of with the rookies head set, they get their Website all set up. They are full of hope and aspirations. So what do they do?
Firstly eBay is the most recognisable market on the world wide web. It has much more publicity and visitors than any other market. Remarkably a lot of men and women mostly believe it is a place to acquire and have not considered to use it as a your own virtual retailer. The edge of making use of it as your own virtual retailer is that you don't want your own internet site it is all there for you.
Now if you are performing a big launch.one that generates this sort of funds, you have to have a staff of some form. Even if your launch doesn't be successful you had to have a staff. Possibly your staff is three men and women and you are splitting it three methods.say you have a tech man, a copywriter and the big photograph individual. Now you break up the $36,000 three methods and so you each and every get $12,000.
If you have an e-book to offer, post it to Clickbank and affiliate marketers will offer it for you. Your product or service will get quick publicity when submitted to Clickbank for affiliate marketers to offer. If you're looking to revenue from home or Solo Ads Clickbank need to be your first end previously mentioned all other folks.
No one at any time mentioned receiving rich was easy, that's one of the motives we know scams when we see them. If receiving rich was easy absolutely everyone would be rich and no one would be reading this write-up. Acquiring rich is not easy and it's not something that you can only do for a few hrs a working day and make a decent revenue. Even the richest entrepreneurs nevertheless devotes hrs a working day to their product and their pursuit to make funds. The only distinction among them and you is that they have a site that men and women really visit that makes them funds.
I was bogged down and one of the 97%twenty five that failed with outdated Mlm/Network Advertising and marketing techniques till I discover the right way to industry online. Do your self a favor and check out the techniques of Mike Dillard. You might or might not want to proceed to follow his way of pondering on sponsoring/recruiting online; but you will surely get a obvious vision of the likely of Mlm/Network Advertising and marketing online.
If you are looking to make some added money and have no clue where to commence, you should have a seat and be positive to read through this article from leading to base and I will make clear how to get commenced five minutes from now.
Build a checklist of buyers. You have to think prolonged term in your internet marketing and advertising strategy. There's been a lot of cases where men and women manufactured income on the web for a limited while using a unique approach, but when that approach stops functioning they are accomplished.
I have been trying to John Chow for above a year now. It wasn't until finally I located Linked Content material that I was capable to bring in consistent income. Do not get me wrong, I make good income doing other things as well, but when things are heading gradual with my other companies Affiliate Content material arrives to the rescue.
Once you have their e-mail addresses, you can send out them e-mails. This is where the developing proceeds. Don't get started by sending them offers, hoping they will purchase some thing. Take your time. Introduce your self, permit them get to know you, permit them truly feel cozy with you. Ship them a link to one more cost-free merchandise, some thing good. Or give them actually good details in your e-mails. Allow them to look ahead to receiving an e-mail from you.
Are you nevertheless scratching your head or not happy with the tips I have offered so far? Properly if writing tons of content articles and having surveys doesn't actually sound like your cup of tea, there is always the different of Discussion board Booster.
Use outsourcing. You will find that there are a number of elements of your business that will virtually require you to solicit the help of specified companies. If you write content articles, for instance, it tends to make feeling to use an article submission support to distribute your perform. It can consider days to post your content articles to hundreds of internet sites if you do it manually. Submission companies can do the very same perform in seconds. That frees precious time up for you to concentrate on other elements of your business.
Just make positive that your marketing and advertising is specific. In other words and phrases, market place in entrance of people who are interested in what you market. Don't waste your time on men and women who aren't interested in what you have to supply.
Four: Uncover a mentor – There are numerous business homeowners that supply their companies as a mentor that will help you understand how to create your business to be successful. If you yet again, decide on very carefully, you can find an individual who will give you all the help that you will want. Just make positive that you decide on an individual that is successful so they can demonstrate you how they did it. Don't be taken in by every person you listen to about that is earning income with their business. Often do your research prior to choosing.
These 3 income creating ideas are Tested and Confirmed but there are a complete ton of other methods to make income on the web but I have employed these myself so know them to perform wonderful.
If you are studying this you should be fascinated in earning further funds on the internet. The question is however how is absolutely everyone earning a month to month income on the internet? The truth is that most people fail to work at home. They lack knowledge of what to do, and in which to begin.
Make a quite descriptive checklist of what you search for, and write them downward. Define your want simply. Saying you want economic independence is just not ample. WHY you want individual independence and what you should do with it is what we find here.
Not a good deal of people had been doing it then, and my results had been amazing! Within no time, I experienced all these different internet web sites that experienced my back links and my banner adverts, and they had been offering my stuff on their pages. I wasn't spending everything for it up entrance. I was only spending for results.
Legitimate ways to John Chow, as I said prior to, doesn't occur quickly. So the very best and speediest way to get began is to find out about it, comprehend it and have a good deal of people helping you. That is why I determined I required a site that was developed around teaching me and helping me to turn into successful. That place is Wealthy Affiliate. You can get began there appropriate now and begin your quite initial lesson on how to tap into this enormous marketplace.
Note most importantly that none of these are motion steps from which YOU can earnings. They may possibly construct your knowledge foundation, but unless people get knowledge straight from your brain, which I call "consulting," you are not offering.
All you need to do is sign-up with them and produce an account and submit your site's url for review. Now you need to have your site set up with some great content material prior to doing this so that you can get accepted. You should also have some lawful pages on your weblog like a privateness policy, a phrases of provider and a speak to page. These are required to comply with FCC laws and to adhere to Google's AdSense TOS.
One: Discussion boards – You can discover a good deal of aid from people that hold out in community forums. Several net organization proprietors will use community forums to talk to other organization proprietors, share suggestions, complain, request queries and give answers to other people. A home organization forum is a quite useful source that you can use to get all the aid that you need to construct a successful organization.
You'll get mentoring from the owner of the business. He'll generally maintain your hand and walk you via the complete procedure. You can't actually fail. I dislike to say it but if you fail with this system you should be some sort of stupid.
If you're pouring a good deal of funds into paid out advertising and marketing (specifically spend for each click), and you're not observing any sales coming in, then you will want to rethink your method. Consider switching to a a hundred%25 free advertising campaign. If this appears ineffective or you believe that it will take way too much time, I urge you to give it a shot.

The show that redeems itself!,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: Mutant X: Season 1 [DVD] [2001] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
After the first 2 episodes (if you haven't seen this show before, like I hadn't until this First Season DVD Set) there's no way you're going to believe me when I tell you this is a solidly entertaining and extremely stylish show. It's impossible to put your finger on any one bad feature at the start of this series centring on a world of new mutants, because EVERY aspect of their introduction is hideously embarrassing and laughably poor in its execution (Shalimar's pouting being the least of the problems). But something I must mention- the special effects that illustrate some of the mutant powers are very poor effects indeed and so incredibly cringe-worthy. Trust me- you'll firmly believe within the first 10 minutes of the first episode that the only basis for this show is the 'X-Men' comics and a group of actors who happened to have some spare time between waitressing at Starbucks and auditioning for ketchup commercials (I can't begin to comment on the writing!). But from episode 3 onwards, EVERYTHING comes together and 'Mutant X' comes into its' own. It's surprising and quite admirable how the producers, actors and writers manage to turn around in a considerably short space of time what could have been an absolute disaster had it continued in the same painful vein of those early episodes. From awful to gripping in the blink of an eye, I guarantee and from then on things only get better, episode by episode, consistently excellent in my view until the thrilling finale to the season.
Admittedly, even at its height, 'Mutant X' remains Saturday afternoon, somewhat forgettable television (although probably a great show for all the family) and so does not come close to the enduring brilliance of shows like 'Alias', 'Firefly' or 'Dark Angel', or to other programmes geared to a more young-adult and above audience, but there are comparisons to be drawn from those shows. The fight scenes in 'Mutant X' (I risk saying) are even better than the fight scenes in 'Alias', the exploration of minorities in society and the importance of coming to celebrate our individuality is an improvement on the similar issues at the heart of 'Dark Angel' and the special effects (even the mutant powers before too long) are incredibly visceral and compliment the action very well and come to rival those of 'Firefly'. But what this show in its own right manages impressively and effortlessly is to convey a unique message in each episode. Although as a whole I would say that redemption is the key to the season- Mason Eckhart (the baddie) remains the unredeemable character- while all others are neither white nor black, but somewhere in between...even the members of our band of injustice-fighting heroes, which is refreshing. I was also reminded of cult programmes like 'La Femme Nikita' (which shares a producer with M-X) and 'Deep Water Black', but this show has a tone all of its own, which again you'll find hard to believe after the first 2 episodes, which fail miserably in setting up a convincing world for these gifted characters. Some good points to convince you it's definitely not all bad- the sets and the locations in 'Mutant X' are SPECTACULAR, there are twists and turns in many of the stories that you won't see coming and aren't predictable for even the most jaded fan of the genre, and whether a new feature of this DVD or something the show already possessed- it has a slick, stark and quite beautiful look. By episode (10), I wanted to write this review to extol the virtues of 'Mutant X', but I held off until I'd watched all 22 episodes just in case it took a turn for the worse and descended into the horror of the first 2 introductory episodes, but thankfully it remained enjoyable, fresh, classy television all the way through. So in summary, by the end of this first season 'Mutant X' has redeemed itself (and more!)- an extremely shaky start, but well worth your time and money. Also...regarding this DVD package...the extras are numerous and appealing- tons of outtakes, a whole host of info. on the series and the commentaries were all impressive, while the plastic case is cheap but functional and the menus are attractive and very easy to use.

Sub standard quality product,
This review is from: Mutant X The Complete First Season [DVD] (DVD)
I'm not rating the show itself which I thoroughly enjoyed but this re-release box set.
It's nice to have 5 episodes on a disc as it takes up less discs than the original releases. To me this does come at a cost as I found that the image doesn't play too smoothly and reminds me of many years ago of the playing DVDs on my computer. Not sure if this is because the programme is so compressed on whether it is just a poor transfer. Not a big fan of the packaging which is fold out cardboard with plasticv inlay trays. I am not a big fan of this style of packaging as it gets damaged and knocked too easily. This set is released by Delta who I have never come across until now. The original relases were released by Contender if I remember rightly. I much prefer the quality of the original releases even if they take up more space.

This review is from: Mutant X: Season 1 [DVD] (DVD)
Iam a long time fan of Marvel Comics in particular the X-MEN and i was curious as to how this series was.
It was a typical series nothing to make it stand out. The fight sequences were loughable with too much use of the wire technique. The character powers were interestesting but not shown to its full potential due to poor special effect/fighting technique (may have something to do with finances). The actors appeared to be posing more than portraying their characters. After saying all that iam still happy to have purchased it. |

Wages, Supervision and Sharing
Instrumental efficiency wage models predict an inverse relationship between wages and supervision with this relationship being more pronounced amongst firms participating in employee sharing. My theoretical exposition predicts that an increase in remuneration reduces monitoring more in "sharing" than in "non-sharing" firms. I explore these predictions using the 1998 Workplace Employee Relations Survey. My empirical results confirm an inverse relationship between supervision and pay, but the trade-off is only heightened by performance-related pay and employee share ownership schemes. I find that employee share ownership and performance-related pay are more successful in alleviating the need to monitor.

Bernarda Fink, Wigmore Hall
The Wigmore Hall marks the 75th anniversary of the death of Maurice Ravel with a series of concerts that run through to June 2012.
An evening of strange-bedfellow one-acts in high-concept stagings, mindbogglingly delightful.
On February 19, 2015, Pacific Symphony presented its annual performance of a semi-staged opera. This year's presentation at the Segerstrom Center for the Arts in Costa Mesa, California, featured Georges Bizet's Carmen. Director Dean Anthony used the front of the stage and a few solid set pieces by Scenic Designer Matt Scarpino to depict the opera's various scenes.
Although the English National Opera has been decidedly sparing with its Wagner for quite some time now, its recent track record, leaving aside a disastrous Ring, has perhaps been better than that at Covent Garden.
On Friday February 20, 2015, San Diego Opera presented Mozart's Don Giovanni in a production by Nicholas Muni originally seen at Cincinnati Opera.
In a production first seen in Houston several years ago, and now revised by its director John Caird, Puccini's Tosca has returned to Lyric Opera of Chicago with two casts, partially different, scheduled into March of the present season.
Henri Dutilleux's music has its devotees. I am yet to join their ranks, but had no reason to think this was not an admirable performance of his song-cycle Correspondances.
In 1980, the Metropolitan Opera commissioned composer John Corigliano to write an opera celebrating the company's one-hundredth anniversary. It was to be ready in 1983.
English National Opera's revival of Peter Konwitschny's production of Verdi's La Traviata had many elements in common with the production's original outing in 2013 (The production was a co-production with Opera Graz, where it had debuted in 2011).
You might believe you could go to an opera and take in what you see at face value. But if you did that just now in Lyon you would have had no idea what was going on.
I wonder whether we need a new way of thinking — and talking — about operatic 'revivals'. Perhaps the term is more meaningful when it comes to works that have been dead and buried for years, before being rediscovered by subsequent generations.
Hopefully this brilliant new production of Iphigénie en Tauride from the Grand Théâtre de Genève will find its way to the new world now that Gluck's masterpiece has been introduced to American audiences.
Tristan first appeared on the stage of the Théâtre du Capitole in 1928, sung in French, the same language that served its 1942 production even with Wehrmacht tanks parked in front of the opera house.
Arizona Opera presented Eugene Onegin during and 1999-2000 season and again on February 1 of this year as part of the 2014-2015 season. In this country Onegin is not a crowd pleaser like La Bohème or Carmen, but its story is believable and its music melodic and memorable. Just hum the beginning of the "Polonaise" and your friends will know the music, if not where it comes from.
Florian Boesch and Roger Vignoles at the Wigmore Hall in Ernst Krenek's Reisebuch aus den österreichischen Alpen. Matthias Goerne has called Hanns Eisler's Hollywooder Liederbuch the Winterreise of the 20th century. Boesch and Vignoles showed how Krenek's Reisebuch is a journey of discovery into identity at an era of extreme social change. It is a parable, indeed, of modern times.
Lyric Opera of Chicago's new Anna Bolena, a production shared with Minnesota Opera, features a distinguished cast including several notable premieres.
On Tuesday January 27, 2015, San Diego Opera presented Giacomo Puccini's La Boheme. It is the opera with which the company opened in 1965 and a work that the company has faithfully performed every five years since then.
Last year we tracked Orfeo on his desperate search for his lost Euridice, through the labyrinths and studio spaces of Central St Martin's; this year we were plunged into Macbeth's tragic pursuit of power in the bare blackness of the CSM's Platform Theatre.
Béla Bartók's only opera, Duke Bluebeard's Castle, composed in 1911 and based upon a libretto by the Hungarian writer Béla Balázs, was not initially a success.
Káťa Kabanová is, they say, Janáček's first mature opera — it comes a mere 20 years after his masterpiece, Jenůfa.
Nice's golden winter light is not that of England's North Sea coast. Nonetheless the Opéra de Nice's new production of Peter Grimes did much to take us there.
The Wigmore Hall marks the 75th anniversary of the death of Maurice Ravel with a series of concerts that run through to June 2012.
Mixing piano song with chamber music, Bernarda Fink's recital titled "Une rare émotion", placed Ravel's vocal music in the context of his era. That "rare emotion" was a search for alternatives to mainstream culture, exemplified by exotic, alien places. While British colonialism belittled other cultures, the French saw in "orientalism" potential for creative growth. Ravel's fascination with non-western concepts wasn't effete, but an act of affirmative courage.
Bernarda Fink began her recital with Ravel's Cinq mélodies populaires grecques (1904-6). Their simplicity is deceptive for they represent a very different aesthetic to the often florid fin de siècle lushness popular at the time. Perhaps it's significant that the poet who wrote the texts, Michel-Dimitri Calvocoressi, persuaded Ralph Vaughan Williams to study with Ravel instead of with Vincent d'Indy. Fink and Christopher Glynn, her pianist, are right not to overdo the folk origins of these songs, for they herald Ravel's later work, like Rapsodie espagnol and even Boléro. Perceptively, Fink and Glynn juxtaposed these songs with Debussy's Chansons de Bilitis, written only 5 years previously, preceding the languid sensuality of La Flûte de Pan with Camille Saint-Saëns Une flûte invisible (Flautist : Adam Walker)
Moire stellar, however, was Fink's performance of Ravel's very early Shéherézade (1903). "Asie, Asie, Asie", she sang, her voice glowing with excitement, "Vieux pays merveilleux des contes de nourrice". Then, she intoned the words "Je voudrais voir des assassins souriant", almost parlando, hinting at menacing mysteries". Emotional extremes and daring — Ravel was by no means as mannered as the dandy image he presented.
Jules Massenet's Élégie (1872) was a reminder of the French Romantic tradition, here transcribed for cello (Marie Bitlloch) which nicely complimented Fink's lower register. The highlight of the evening, nonetheless, was Fink's performance of Ravel's Chansons madécasses (1926). This is Ravel's exoticism in full glory. Fink's singing took on a shimmer that brought out the suppressed erotic tension. Her Aoua! was spectacular, vibrant with horror. "Méfiez-vous des blancs, habitants du rivage", she sang. Beware of the whites, who make enticing promises, but bring carnage. The violence is even more terrifying when Ravel follows this outburst with Il est doux. A man is sitting under a palm tree, a woman is preparing his meal. The music lilts languidly. But who is the man, and who is the woman? After Aoua!, we should beware. Ravel is provocative. Exoticism isn't safe.
Fink and Glynn sang Debussy's Trois mélodies de Paul Verlaine (1891) and a selection of Fauré songs from his op 39 and 76, including the lovely Les roses d'Ispahan which often makes me swoon, but after that Aoua! anything but Ravel seemed tame. Glynn's transcription of Poulenc's Priez por paix, for voice, piano, flute and cello ended the evening on a more soothing note.
