Cinéma m'était conté, 30ème émission ! Mais surtout le début d'une nouvelle saison sur les ondes de Radio Campus Lille (106.6 FM). Et de mettre à l'honneur une figure emblématique du 7ème art : Sylvester Stallone ! 

Sylvester Stallone est né le 6 juillet 1946 à New York. Après avoir débuté sa carrière au cinéma avec des petits rôles au début des années 1970, il se révèle au grand public en 1976 dans le célèbre film Rocky, dont le récit narre l'histoire d'un boxeur de Philadelphie nommé Rocky Balboa. Ce succès lance sa carrière et engendre une série de huit films rencontrant un succès critique et commercial sur une période de plus de quarante ans. Stallone s'investit de même dans le cinéma dramatique en incarnant des personnages plus sombres dans des films comme FIST (1978), La Taverne de l'enfer (1978), Les Faucons de la nuit (1981) et travaille pour des réalisateurs tels que Norman Jewison et John Huston. En 1982, son incarnation du personnage de John Rambo, un vétéran traumatisé par la guerre du Viêt Nam dans Rambo lui permet d'obtenir le deuxième rôle le plus emblématique de sa carrière. Le succès du film entraîne la production d'une autre série de quatre suites centrées sur le personnage. À partir du milieu des années 1980, il s'oriente vers les productions à gros budget : les suites de Rambo, mais aussi Tango et Cash (1989), Cliffhanger (1993) et Demolition Man (1993). Hormis quelques drames tels que Copland (1997), les suites de Rocky et plusieurs tentatives dans la comédie, les films d'action restent son principal genre d'interprétation, comme la série des Expendables (2010-2023) dont le dernier volet est prévu pour le 11 octobre 2023. 

Cette 30ème émission est structurée de la façon suivante : 

Ouverture : Daylight de Rob Cohen.

Les incontournables : Rocky de John G. Avildsen et Rambo de Ted Kotcheff.

Flic et taulard : Haute sécurité de John Flynn et Copland de James Mangold.

Entre villes et sommets : Les faucons de la nuit de Bruce Malmuth (avec Rutger Hauer) et Cliffhanger de Renny Harlin.

Première réalisation : La taverne de l'enfer.

Conclusion : L'expert de Luis Llosa avec Sharon Stone et James Woods. 

Une émission co-animée par Christophe Colpaert et Christophe Dordain avec le soutien de Cédric Poelvoorde. 

A propos de Cinéma m'était conté : elle est diffusée sur Radio Campus Lille (106.6 FM), le samedi de 14h à 15h.

Cinéma m'était conté reviendra le 7 octobre avec une émission consacrée à Luc Besson. En attendant, vous pouvez nous retrouver sur Facebook et Twitter.

A fresh season of City Ballet The Podcast kicks off with New Combinations host and Associate Artistic Director Wendy Whelan in conversation with Repertory Director Craig Hall, Company Pianist Craig Baldwin, and Principal Dancer Chun Wai Chan. Each is intimately involved in the development of Justin Peck’s Copland Dance Episodes, NYCB’s first non-narrative, evening-length work since Balanchine’s 1967 piece Jewels. As Baldwin, Chan, and Hall relate, the experience of taking part in this momentous creation is one rich with the beauty and distinctly American qualities of Copland’s music, and the sense of unfettered humanity and community in Peck’s choreographic process.

Meet the 22-23 Akron Symphony Orchestra Season Opener—American Fanfare— with host Ken Heinlein and Music Director Christopher Wilkins. 

Six Americans compose portraits of our nation and our people. Copland’s brass and percussion fanfare salutes civilians serving our country through simple daily acts. Gershwin’s jazz-age portrayal of an American visitor to Paris revels in musical tone painting. Shakamaxon is the historic Indian village—bordering on present-day Philadelphia—where Chief Tamanend signed the 1682 treaty between William Penn and the Lenape Indians. Jerod Tate’s spirited dance for strings pays respectful and playful homage to the Lenape people.

Conrad Tao is the pianist, composer and new music champion who appears in two concerts presented by the Seattle Symphony this week. He spoke with KING FM Creative Director, Dacia Clay.  Conrad talks about his recital in Octave 9 on March 6 and his appearance at the SSO Celebrate Asia concert this weekend.  And he introduces us to a lesser known side of Aaron Copland.  Copland's outspoken activism as a gay man in early 20th Century America is often overshadowed by the composer's iconic and bucolic ballet music.

In this special bonus episode of See the Music recorded live in the David H. Koch Theater, Resident Conductor Daniel Capps briefly surveys the history and unique musical qualities of Aaron Copland’s Rodeo, which provides the score for Justin Peck’s Rodeo: Four Dance Episodes. Capps and the NYCB Orchestra demonstrate how Copland uses familiar folk songs and rhythmic invention to convey a distinct Americanness, achieving for the piece a place in the “very fabric of American identity.” (13:13)

Rodeo (1942) by Aaron Copland

Aaron Copland did as much as anyone in establishing American concert music on the world stage, and his ballet scores proved to be among his most important and influential works. Grohg is the most ambitious example of his Parisian years, a precociously brilliant one-act ballet scored for full orchestra, inspired by the silent film expressionist film Nosferatu. The first example of Copland’s new ‘Americanized’ music of the 1930s was Billy the Kid, based on the life of the 19th-century outlaw and heard here in its full version. This was the first fully fledged American ballet in style and content: brassy, syncopated, filmic and richly folk-flavored. Host Raymond Bisha introduces this release in the latest episode of Naxos Classical Spotlight.
