TRANSCRIPTIE

Ciao ,

Welkom, bij deze eerste internationale podcast van 1MEMO.

Mijn naam is Michel van der Burg.

Vandaag is het woensdag 14 februari 2024. Valentijnsdag.

Ik wandel in het Groene Hart van Nederland…terwijl ik deze eerste 1 memo podcast maak in het Nederlands.

Tja … wat is zo’n 1-memo ?

In ‘t kort : gewoon ‘iets’…
wat ik dagelijks publiceer .

Een foto, film – kort, lang – tekst, audio…

Niet persé dagelijks, dacht ik aanvankelijk…
toen ik daar aan begon.

Maar ik doe ik dit nu eigenlijk dagelijks , al bijna 10 jaar…

Gestart in juni 2014 met publiceren in het Engels….
voor een internationaal publiek, hopelijk…

De focus is altijd op visueel werk, meest film.

Nu ik graag podcasting toevoeg,
realiseer ik me plots
dat het grootste deel van mijn materiaal
in het Nederlands is – mijn moedertaal.

In filmwerk wordt dat zonodig vertaald, dus dat is geen probleem.

Maar een internationale podcast is anders…

Het podcasten hier zal in het Nederlands, Engels en Frans zijn.

Gisteren de première van de Engelse editie van deze post – en nu dan de Nederlandse première.

Ik zal de taal in de titels aangeven.

Tenslotte … waarom deze ① memo’s ?

Tja, voor een antwoord citeer ik hier graag de Nederlandse schrijfster Marja Pinckaers – uit haar boek 16 versie 61 :

‘Elke dag maak ik wat.
Dan is er ‘s avonds iets op de wereld
wat er ‘s ochtends niet was.

Of mischien toch,
maar moest ik het nog zoeken
en vond ik het •’

Bedankt voor het luisteren.

Ciao…

TRANSCRIPT

Ciao ,

Welcome , at this 1st international podcast ,
at 1MEMO.

My name is Michel van der Burg.

Today it’s Tuesday , Feb. 13, 2024 .
I am walking in the Green Heart of Holland…while making this first 1 memo podcast.

Well , what is a 1 memo ?

In short — It’s just a thing…I publish daily.
A photo, film, text, audio …
Not necessarily daily …

But I have been doing this daily , actually , for almost 10 years…now…

Started June 2014.
Publishing in english ….
for an international public , hopefully…

The focus is on visual work, mostly film.

Now that I like to add podcasting,
I suddenly realize , that most of my footage is in Dutch – my native language. In film work , that is translated , so , no problem.

However an international podcast is different .

Podcasting here will be in dutch, english, french .

Here first the english edition – tomorrow the dutch edition.

I will indicate the language in the titles.

So why these ① memo’s ?

Well , for an answer , I like to quote here the dutch author Marja Pinckaers ,

(my translation) :


Every day I make something.
Then in the evening
there’s something in the world
that wasn’t there in the morning.

Or maybe it was there,
but I still had to look for it
and I found it •

Thank you for listening ,
…ciao

The Abbey by Queen George & Amir Kovalski | 20231201

🎵 All my life I was alive …
I’m sorry …

Listen at Apple Music , or buy in iTunes Store | The Abbey by Queen George & Amir Kovalski – Link https://music.apple.com/us/album/the-abbey-single/1718026913

Song sung by Isabella’s great-grandchild Ameet Kanon (aka Queen George) , who explained today – Friday , December 1, 2023 – at the premiere :

“The Abbey – it’s been so special and personal keeping you to myself, but your message was always too big for me not to share it …

… This is Isabella Weinreb Castegnier. She is my great-grandmother. On April 19th, 1943, pregnant with my grandmother, she jumped out of a moving train headed to Auschwitz. She was being sent to her death, simply because she was a Jew. She understood that it was now or never, die at the destination or die trying, so she jumped. In the years to follow this epic jump, the Abbeys of Brussels became a place of hiding, survival, and safety for them time and time again.”

‘Entartete Art’ 1935 – Coleman Hawkins & Leo de la Fuente in Holland | 20231123


‘Entartete Art’ 1935 – Coleman Hawkins & Leo de la Fuente in Holland

American saxophonist Coleman Hawkins announces and plays – accompanied by Leo de la Fuente on piano – on his tenor saxophone ‘I wished that I were twins’.

In 1934, Coleman Hawkins left the Fletcher Henderson Orchestra and Amerika, moved to Europe, and joined the Jack Hylton Orchestra in England. Hylton and his band made regular ‘continental’ tours, and started another European tour January 1935 accompanied by Coleman Hawkins in Holland. At the end of January 1935 Hawkins joins the dutch band The Rambers … for 8 days … because Hawkins was denied entry to Germany because of his race, while Hylton and his band continued their tour without him and play for eight days at the Berlin Philharmonic Hall.

To end this special week with Hawkins well, the bandleader of The Ramblers – Theo Uden Masman – arranged with Decca for recordings 4 february 1935 in Pulchri Studio in The Hague, Holland, including this : I wish I were twins…that was also recorded on film by Polygoon (Polygoontoon) for the dutch cinema news for next week .

Coleman Hawkins is accomponied here on film by the dutch jazz pioneer Leo de la Fuente on piano , playing ‘I wished that I were twins’ . After the recordings, Hawkins moves further into Europe.

Leo – Leonard Henriques – de la Fuente, who was born Jewish in Amsterdam 28 March 1902, was deported by the nazi’s to Auschwitz on 2 November 1942, and died 30 April 1944 ‘somewhere in Mid Europe’.
