Growing up in a Chicago distillery, he initially wanted to become a gangster because the then eleven year old saw nothing but drug dealers and criminals. It should turn out differently. Quincy Jones discovered his love for music by chance the first time he sat at a piano. From then on, things went very fast: he received a scholarship at the Barklee College of Music in Boston, toured with Lionel Hampton, led his own bands, worked for Frank Sinatra, wrote film music and, together with Michael Jackson, produced the best-selling album (Thriller) of all Times. Quincy Jones has reinvented himself over and over again over the years. Whether jazz, pop, soul or hip-hop, he always got involved in experiments and was hungry to tread new paths.

There is immense admiration for the grandmaster in the music industry. This can also be felt at the symphony concert. The guest singers bow to him, kiss his bald head, enthusiastically press his hands. “The one and only”, it is said several times. In between they really heat up the audience, which energetically moves to the rhythms and sings along. A dancer who imitates Michael Jackson and interprets his steps in a very creative way also creates the atmosphere. The hall is boiling, there is enthusiasm on the stage. Everyone is having fun, especially Quincy Jones, who is reaping the fruits of his decades of work that evening.

Tutzing (dpa) – Leslie Mandoki took her time. Ten years after the last studio record, the new work of his Mandoki Soulmates is now being released – the opulently furnished double album “Living In The Gap” / “Hungarian Pictures”. You see and you hear: It must have been a show of strength for the 66-year-old mastermind and namesake.

Not only because the drummer, composer and producer who lives and works in Tutzing on Lake Starnberg (Bavaria) has once again brought together around two dozen top-class musicians from jazz, rock and blues. But because with the sound carrier he delivers an epic, almost two-hour monument beyond all common styles and listening habits – message and cue included.

Leslie Mandoki, who fled to Germany from what was then still communist Hungary in an adventurous way in 1975, is certainly a talented musician. But the former member of the Ralph Siegel hit project Dschinghis Khan is brilliant as a networker, string puller and contact maker. Like hardly any other pop artist, the man with the distinctive mustache succeeds in picking up and knotting threads.community service paragraph

Celebrities mourn Karl Dall

The best evidence: his Mandoki Soulmates project, which he launched around 30 years ago. The “soul mates” include around two dozen music greats in 2019 – including: Al Di Meola, Till Brönner, Simon Phillips, Mike Stern, Jethro Tull boss Ian Anderson and the singers Chris Thompson (Manfred Mann’s Earthband), Bobby Kimball (Toto ), Peter Maffay and David Clayton-Thomas (Blood, Sweat Tears).

“No Indians, just chiefs” – that’s how world-class saxophonist Randy Brecker, also a member of the Mandoki clan, sees it: “We’re all band leaders, that’s what makes the project so interesting. Each of us has our own musical vision – but we do look and listen to Leslie. He knows exactly what he wants to hear. “

The musical skills that the “Hungarian Quincy Jones” (Di Meola) required of his stars for the new double album rarely fits into style drawers. And the epics, sometimes over 19 minutes long, are as far removed from today’s charts as goulash is from vegetarian: complex jazz-rock arrangements, virtuoso runs in unison, repeated changes in tempo. It rocks, it jazzes. Sometimes it becomes anthemic, sometimes bulky, then again euphoric refrains let the sun rise.

While Mandoki and his men refer to current political developments on “Living In The Gap” with titles such as “Young Rebels”, “Mother Europe” and “Turn The Wind”, album number two (“Hungarian Pictures”) offers a three-quarters of an hour progressive – Rock suite, largely based on compositions and themes by the Hungarian composer Béla Bartók (1881-1945).

For Leslie Mandoki, his new work is more than just another piece of music: “It’s a statement against the destruction of our culture of debate,” says the politically active musician. “Mob tweets” are poison for a differentiated dialogue. But: “Our music is not just a sociopolitical tweet, but a feature section article with many messages.”

Three weeks after the release of the double album – from October 31st – the Mandoki Soulmates are bringing their “sounding arts pages” on a four concert tour (October 31, Hamburg, November 7, Munich, November 8, Dortmund, November 9, Berlin).

Because of the coronavirus pandemic, Beethoven’s birthplace Bonn is celebrating the composer’s 250th anniversary in around a week, especially online and in the media. The program with concerts without an audience could be experienced on radio, television and the Internet, announced the organizers of the anniversary year on Wednesday. December 17th marks the 250th anniversary of the baptism day of Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 – 1827) recorded in a church book in Bonn. On this day, conductor Daniel Barenboim and his West-Eastern Divan Orchestra give a concert in the opera. The performance will be broadcast and streamed on 3Sat, on WDR television and radio.

Due to the Corona restrictions, the festival program for the 250th birthday of the most performed classical composer was extended into the next year. It was originally supposed to end on December 17th, but many planned concerts and events had to be canceled. “By extending the jubilee by another 250 days in the new year, we want to give as many artists as possible the chance to realize their concerts and projects that were initially canceled,” said the chairman of the supervisory board of Beethoven Jubiläums GmbH, Günter Winands.

On the day before the christening day, on December 16, the Beethoven Orchestra organized an evening on the development of the increasingly deaf composer. A piece by the American jazz trumpeter and music producer Quincy Jones entitled “Ode to Joy” will also be premiered.

Two people died and over 200 became ill in Spain due to spoiled pork. The manufacturer’s factory was closed.

In Spain, a woman died on Tuesday after eating spoiled pork – the second death in a week related to over 200 cases of listeriosis in the country. The 74-year-old died in Seville in the southern Spanish region of Andalusia of the bacterial infection, as the regional government announced. A week ago, a 90-year-old had died of Listeria.

According to the regional government, a total of 196 people fell ill in Andalusia. There were also seven diseases in other regions of Spain. A woman lost her baby to the disease. A British man was diagnosed with the disease in France after eating rotten meat in Seville.

Authorities had previously warned that a garlic-filled pork product called “La Mecha” was the cause of the listeriosis outbreak. The manufacturer’s factory has since closed and all products have been recalled from stores. Listeria develop mainly in milk and finished products and are particularly dangerous for the elderly, people with weak immune systems and pregnant women.

Korbach / Kassel (dpa) – The Hessian sausage manufacturer Wilke remains closed after germs have been found in the meat. The Kassel administrative court had rejected an urgent application by the company against the closure, said a court spokesman.

The company had thus defended itself against the decision of the food control of the Waldeck-Frankenberg district to stop production after the discovery of Listeria. Wilke could now lodge a complaint with the Hessian administrative court on the matter.

Listeria had repeatedly been found in Wilke-Wurst. Three deaths have been linked to the company’s goods in Twist Valley-Berndorf. Wilke has meanwhile filed for preliminary bankruptcy. The 200 employees do not know what to do next. The insolvency administrator does not comment publicly on the future of the company and the public prosecutor in Kassel is investigating negligent homicide.

According to the judges, the district has correctly identified violations of the company’s food law. The administrative court particularly highlighted one of the auditors’ findings: They reported about a storage room in which there was meat that was unfit for consumption and should be disposed of. “The room was filled with completely rotten goods, mold, rot, stench … there was a smelly liquid on the floor,” the judges quoted as saying. Driving through this liquid was said to have brought goods outside in a vehicle. Then one drove again through the smelly liquid into rooms that were considered clean.

The described shortcomings make it understandable that the company offers ideal conditions for the “settlement, increase and spread of Listeria”, explains the administrative court. The court has no doubt that the company has no alternative to the production stop and recall, “in order to minimize as much as possible significant and serious dangers to life and limb of a large number of people.”

It is unclear whether there will be main proceedings in the legal dispute over the company closure. According to the administrative court, this would be necessary if Wilke should seek compensation claims against the district because of the closure. According to estimates by the food-enjoyment-restaurants union (NGG), a resumption of operations is unlikely. “I see it in black,” said trade union manager Andreas Kampmann: The only hope for the employees is still that an investor can be found who has a new use for the company.
