H7STERIA BBC Concert Orchestra





Author: BBC


Last Update: december 3, 2012

Quotation: "A hundred years after its premiere, Arnold Schoenberg’s fiercely brilliant and totally Surreal sextet Pierrot lunaire still has the ability to unsettle audiences. Based on bizarre and brassy texts by Symbolist poet Albert Giraud, Schoenberg plays music puppeteer with his landmark Opus 21. Pierrot, the sad, old, Italian pantomime clown: lovestruck, blasphemous, mocking, violent and finally nostalgic. The half-spoken, half-sung twisted melodrama with its splash of cabaret and high art reflects Schoenberg’s own numerological manias..."

New England Patriots Young Offensive Line to Be Tested Sunday


Author : Sean Rollins

Date of publication : November, 30 2012

                                                                                 Stew Milne-US Presswire

Abstract : Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins will be a big one for the New England Patriots offensive line. After losing Pro Bowlers Matt Light and Brian Waters prior to the season there were several questions about the line. But the young and inexperienced group has held its own. Probably, their big test will be this match against the Dolphins.

Extract : "The most important player on the Patriots is unquestionably Brady.  Even with all the injuries and an inconsistent running game, the Patriots have the best offense in the NFL leading the league in yards per game and points per game. The AFC East title is now within reach and the most important thing for the Patriots success is the health of their MVP candidate quarterback.  That will be a test Sunday with a limited passing attack and a young offensive line missing their two most experienced players up front.  They’ve been questioned and tested all year but Sunday may be the biggest test so far."

Index terms : New England Patriots players, Miami Dolphins, Offensive line, injuries.
