Italian opera librettist, poet and Roman Catholic priest Lorenzo Da Ponte died #OTD in 1838.
He wrote the libretti for 28 operas by 11 composers, including three of Mozart's most celebrated operas: The Marriage of Figaro (1786), Don Giovanni (1787), and Così fan tutte (1790). He was the first professor of Italian literature at Columbia University, and with Manuel Garcia, the first to introduce Italian opera to America.

#OTD in 1782.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's opera Die Entführung aus dem Serail premiered in Vienna with the composer conducting, after which Emperor Joseph II anecdotally remarked that it had "too many notes".
The German libretto is by Gottlieb Stephanie, based on Christoph Friedrich Bretzner's Belmont und Constanze, oder Die Entführung aus dem Serail.

Aww, Radio and TV at this time of the year are full of Christmas contemplation – often paired with wonderful end of the year reviews... Don't you love it too?
NO?!
Then get ready for
RADIO IRRTUM!
↓↓↓ German version far below the English one ↓↓↓
Yes, the upcoming issue of #RadioIrrtum! will have NOTHING of this and be aired anyway this Saturday, 2024/12/21, 8:00pm UTC+1/Berlin time. At Alex Berlin FM at 91MHz or DAB+ K7D around #Berlin and worldwide at
https://www.alex-berlin.de/radio-livestream .
#Radio Irrtum! is a German language #radioShow exploring the sonic vastness of the #underground. Emitted transmissions may raise your attention for new unheard #music all over the genre spectrum all over the planet. Also it's totally fine to ignore that German language aspect - 'cuz it's all about the #music!
This time I make your Xmas presents basically wrap themselves in weird ways by just pushing out super evil sonic waves containing
- Hamburger Schule #PostPunk
- Polish #CasioPop
- #Acid
- #GrimeRap
- #DnB of various flavors
- #IDM
- #technicalDeathMetal
- the best #Berlin #Punk I've ever played (!)
- #tapeLoopRomance
Yeah, a bit of an electronic overweight with all the DnB and IDM stuff this time – sorry about that… but this basically is what came across my "desk" this month.
At least there is #CreativeCommons included – coming right of the #acidDecember24 happening pulled of by the mighty #Basspistol crew (still running, you may still submit your selfmade tracks - I know, I will) and there is, lemme repeat that, really really well done Berlin punk in here.
If at least a bit interested in kewl new unusual #music, tune in! 📻
I'll post playlist + manuscript later here (provided I’m home, else it will come up the day after). And if you have questions? I'll gladly answer! Just ask!
CU all on Saturday! :)

Bis zur Sendung… vielleicht? :)
Little Trooper - Hidden Hatchway is out now! ✨
Listen here:
https://renegadesofjazz.bandcamp.com/album/stand-up
Check it out if you feel like hearing some fun and quirky feel good music!
Little Trooper was a side project of David Hanke back in the day, inspired by Luke Vibert's Wagon Christ project. Ten years later Stand Up and Hidden Hatchway are two singles to be re-released from this album. Hidden Hatchway is out today, and Stand Up comes out on July 26.
French dramatic mezzo-soprano, composer and pianist Pauline Viardot was born #OTD in 1821.
Viardot made her operatic debut in 1839 in London. She performed in a wide range of operas, including works by Rossini, Bellini, Donizetti, and Meyerbeer. Viardot was a muse and collaborator to many composers and writers, including Ivan Turgenev. She was influential in the music community, promoting works by young composers such as Johannes Brahms and Gabriel Fauré.

2020: Started recording original songs and uploading to Soundcloud to a positive reception. Original project was to grab people I had worked with in the past and record something with them. Recorded a few songs with Reid playing some bass and guitar parts on various tracks, and he sung Proud Woman. Recorded one song with Kaaren which Reid also played some guitar on.
2021: Worked on some music solo after having some difficulties with arranging recording sessions with others. Undertook the massive task of learning Blender to make the Space Pop music video.
2022: Lost job. Lost a ton of project files from a computer crash. Attempted and catastrophically failed to assemble a band to take #DgarMusic to the live scene. Ended up deciding that if Harry Nilsson can write songs without ever performing live, so can I. Got some part time creative work. Then #Dgar joined Mastodon.
2023: Told awful jokes, posted terrible memes, and promoted my music on Mastodon. Met amazing Fedizens and connected with incredible musicians, songwriters, and artists. Got played on underground online radio stations, created my own hashtags, and grew my audience.
2024: Wanted to get back into recording, so my New Years Resolution was to write a song a month. Did my first collaboration with an artist from another country (@Onj) which was awesome. I ended up breaking my new years resolution after six months and six new songs after family tragedy struck thrice. My mother passed away, and a few weeks later, we lost my older sister in a traffic accident. The stress of all this may have been the reason my younger sister then presented with “Functional Neurological Disorder”, or #FND. Thankfully she is on the road to recovery now, although that road seems very long and difficult. I’m currently dabbling with some YouTube projects while I get my songwriting mojo back, namely #CillasGarden, and a #Valheim Let’s Play.
Future: I’m having trouble writing songs at the moment - I’m not in the right headspace, I guess. I’m jotting down ideas here and there, but I’m also toying with the idea of working on some sort of album. I really want to do a #Satisfactory Let’s Play when 1.0 drops next month too. I also have to figure out how to get more people to listen to my #music because the stats would suggest only about 1% of the people following me have ever played one of my tracks. The stats are on the right trajectory though which, I hope, is an indication that I’m doing something right.
Once again, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to all of you who enjoy my work and share this journey with me. Your support has kept me going, even when all I wanted to do was give up.
Big love. Forever grateful.

Lehto - Rdywhn is out now! ✨
With this new single, @lehto delivers another proper one to soundtrack messy club nights. As shown on the recent early summer single ‘Jupe,’ he’s confidently able to slot between the oldskool Breakbeat and UK Garage vibes.
Rdywhn consists of a warm and funky bassline over a 2step beat, topped with some catchy vocal cuts. 🎵

"Nel puro ardor della più bella stella
Aurea facella di bel foco accende
E qui discendi su l’aurate piume
Giocondo nume e di celeste fiamme
L’anima mea."
Nel puro ardor (from 'Euridice')
Italian composer Jacopo Peri died #OTD in 1633.
He wrote what is considered the first opera, the mostly lost Dafne (c. 1597), and also the earliest extant opera, Euridice (1600). He is sometimes known by the byname lo Zazzerino (lit. 'the blond one').
I went ahead and got signed up for the Twitch DJ Program.
My new account will need some followers though: https://www.twitch.tv/thefreshbeets . I'm happy to return the favor, of course.
I hope Twitch links this new one with my already Affiliated account soon so I can get some subscribers going too.

English engineer and writer on music George Grove was born #OTD in 1820.
He is best known as the founding editor of Grove's Dictionary of Music and Musicians. He stated, in the prospectus of the dictionary, in March 1874, that "The want of English works on the history, theory, or practice of Music, or the biographies of musicians accessible to the non-professional reader, has long been a subject of remark."
