Bones Chapel

The chapel was built in the 17th century on the initiative of three Franciscan friars. Their goal: to convey the message of temporariness and fragility of human life. This message clearly comes across to visitors of Bones Chapel right at its entrance through the sign “We bones that are here, for yours we wait”. In fact, it shows Baroque’s men macabre taste for necrophilia.

The chapel lies on the site where initially the monks’ dorm and reflecting room were. It has three naves of about 61.3ft long and 33ft across (18.7m x 11m). Natural light strategically comes in the naves through three small gaps on the left side. It is a very dark place! Be brave…

Bones and human skulls carefully spread and connected with cement cover the walls in Bones Chapel and its eight pillars. Bricks plastered in white and painted with motives symbolising or referring to death build up the domes. Other than the bones themselves, religious statues and paintings in Renaissance and Baroque styles also decorate Bones Chapel.

Rows of skulls, cornices and white naves ornament the arcades. In total, there are around 5000 human skulls in Bones Chapel, among numerous bones. They all came from graves in the convent church and from other churches and cemeteries in Evora.

n the 16th century there were almost 42 monastic cemeteries in the city, which occupied too much space. As a solution, monks extracted bones from the ground and used them to build and “decorate” this chapel.

The Chapel of Bones is a monument of penitential architecture. It is dedicated to Senhor dos Passos, a character representing quite impressively the suffering of Christ in his walk towards Calvary with the cross on his back.

I'm rearranging the home office as I've got so very bored of the current look which has become cluttered. So, the Intel iMac is sharing the same desk as the iMac G3 for tonight until I get another desk (same as the one in the pic) so I can put them side by side and have one huuuuge long desk with more space to put all my peripherals on. It feels nice to be pointing in a different direction :)

Volvo B10BLE Wright Renown YC51 LXZ retains the base livery of Harrogate Connect but with Y&C fleetnames and logo added as a temporary measure until the allocated B10BLE's arrive in York bearing the new livery (which are continually being pushed back due to other Lancashire-based fleets taking priority at the paintshop, potentially the York B10's won't arrive until September) - the bus is seen at the end of an inbound 31 service from Easingwold. The last two inbound services come along Bootham as can be seen here - this section of the road is a bit of an odd setup as it's a key arterial route into the city but only has about 3 or 4 buses come along towards the city in any given day, the services more frequent all go the other way.

So I mentioned that the Rapax shutter on the 101mm Raptar lens that came with the camera could use some love. I'm trying to decide if I should spend the money to have a CLA (clean, lube and adjust) done on it or if I should get adventurous and try it myself. For the time being, it's half usable. I think the high speed mechanism is ok and the T&B settings are functional. So it's ok for everything except the 1/10th to 1 second settings.

While I ponder what to do with the original lens/shutter combo, I decided to put together another lens/shutter that I could sub in if need be. The lens is a Kodak 105mm Anastigmat in a Kodak Compur shutter that came off an old Kodak Recomar folding 6x9 camera (another project...don't ask...). I'm pretty sure this is another Tessar derived lens, so it should be a decent performer when stopped down. While the slow shutter speeds are a little slow on the Compur, they're at least predictable (as opposed to the Rapax that is not predictable in the slightest). I whipped up a rough but functional lensboard out of some 3/32" bass wood. Should I need shutter speeds longer than a 1/10th but shorter than something I could reliably time on the bulb setting, I can get the Anastigmat to fill in.

I'm keeping an eye open for a 101mm Kodak Ektar which was kind of the benchmark for the 2x3 press cameras. If I can pick one of those up, I might do so and then tear down the Rapax on my own. If not, reports on the 101m Raptar aren't too bad, so it might be worth the cost of a professional CLA.

Vienna Concert House (2006)

The Wiener Konzerthaus was opened in 1913. It is on the 3rd Viennese district road (Lothringerstraße) at the edge of the Inner City between Schwarzenberg Square and City Park .

Architectural History

Ludwig Baumann planned Olympion Art Show 1908, the main building Concert Hall, detail

1890 for a planned house music festivals should be considered as multi-purpose building to address a broader public than the just 200 meters away traditional Viennese Musikverein. The design by architect Ludwig Baumann for a Olympion contained several concert halls except an ice rink and a Bicycleclub. In addition, an open-air arena should offer 40,000 visitors. The skating rink and its adjacent buildings were realized in 1899 by Baumann plans, the Art Nouveau ensemble but fell in 1960 to a construction of the InterContinental Hotels Group to the victim. The Vienna Ice Skating Club is located on the then reduced by about a third place today. The popular freestyle wrestling at the Haymarket took place here.

Organised by Gustav Klimt and his friends art exhibition Vienna 1908 was held in a temporary exhibition building on the undeveloped site of the later concert hall. The Wiener Konzerthaus was finally built 1911-1913 by the Europe-wide Viennese theater architects Ferdinand Fellner and Hermann Helmer Younger (Office Fellner & Helmer ) in collaboration with Ludwig Baumann.

The theme of the concert hall was:

A facility for the care of fine music, a collection of artistic aspirations, a home for music and a house for Vienna.

On 19 October 1913 the Concert Hall in the presence of Emperor Franz Joseph I with a gala concert of the Vienna Concert Society was opened (now the Vienna Symphony Orchestra ). Richard Strauss composed this be Festive Prelude Op 61. Was combined with this modern work Beethoven's 9th Symphony - the juxtaposition of tradition and modernity should be so much in the first concert of the house.

The disintegration of Austria-Hungary brought tremendous social upheaval and financial crises - and thus flexibility and versatility was also necessary for lack of money. In addition to classical repertoire, there were in the 1920s and 1930s, important world premieres (including Arnold Schoenberg and Erich Wolfgang Korngold ), concerts with jazz and pop songs, speeches from science to spiritualism and poetry readings (including Karl Kraus ). Dance and ballroom events, some large conferences and world championships for boxing and fencing completed the program.

After the annexation of Austria to the German Reich in 1938, the program for impoverished "non- degenerate entertainment operation ", to many artists remained only the emigration.

After 1945, the concert hall also had the secondary task , " prop up " the bruised Austrian self-confidence in a musical way. In addition to the standard repertoire of classical and romantic and the Viennese Waltz , there were still premieres (eg Schoenberg's oratorio The Jacob's Ladder 1961) and international jazz and pop concerts. From May 1946 spaces for recording studios and administration at the German and in Vienna living music producer Gerhard Mendelson were rented, who is considered one of the most important pop producers in Austria in the postwar period.

After several modifications that changed the original Art Nouveau decoration slightly , the house was restored from 1972 to 1975 to the only slightly altered original plans. From 1998 to 2001 the house was renovated by architect Hans Puchhammer and expanded to include a new concert hall (New Hall) .

From 1989 to 2002 the Vienna Kathreintanz also took place in the concert hall .

Building

Saw the concert at the House of Lorraine Street (Lothringerstraße), the Schwarzenbergplatz

The floor plan approximately 70 x 40 meters large concert hall with the main entrance at the Lothringerstraße and other inputs in the Lisztstraße includes Haymarket (Heumarkt) since the opening three concert halls:

Large hall with 1865 seats

Mozart Hall with 704 seats

Schubert Hall with 366 seats

The new hall (with 400 seats) was not established until the general renovation of 1998 to 2002. The new hall was renamed at the start of the 2009/2010 season in Berio-Saal.

On the home front, the right and left of the entrance, is the inscription

Honor your German Masters, then you are storing good spirits.

Here is a quote from the final chorus for the opera Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg by Richard Wagner.

In all rooms the same time can take place, since they do not affect each other acoustically different concerts.

Inside stands in the foyer of the original model created in 1878 by Kaspar von Zumbusch Beethoven Monument, which is situated opposite the Concert Hall at the Beethoven place. At the staircase there is a relief homage to Emperor Franz Joseph (1913 ) by Edmund Hellmer . Furthermore, a bust of Franz Liszt by Max Klinger to mention in 1904.

The complex of the concert hall and the building is part of the K. K Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (now the University of Music and Dramatic Art). Adjoining rooms for academic teaching purposes this part of the building also contains the Academy theater with 521 seats, which is used as a secondary stage of the Burgtheater world premieres among other modern plays.

Great Hall and Organ

The Great Hall has a capacity of 1116 visitors (ground floor) and additional 361 balconies and boxes, and 388 in the gallery. The auditorium is 750 m2 and 170 m2 of the podium. In the 1960s the hall was optimized by Heinrich Keilholz.

The organ was built in 1913 in the Great Hall of the Rieger organ (Rieger-Orgel) (Jägerndorf, Silesia) built. The instrument is located on the end wall of the big room, but has no visible Prospectus. The organ is located behind a grid and is thus hidden from the visitors. The cone-chest-116 instrument has five registers on manual and pedal works and is the largest organ in Austria. The special features of the organ counts, firstly, that the four manual divisions are swellable. In addition, the organ comprises a (swellable ) remote work with separate pedal. Stylistically, the organ is "Alsatian Organ reform " aimed at the so-called ideal of where along the lines of major instruments of Aristide Cavaillé -Coll, the strong voices are divided into two manuals. The tracker action is electro-pneumatic. For the inauguration of the instrument Strauss had the " Festive Prelude " for organ and orchestra composed. In 1982 the instrument was restored.

The neoclassical yellow brick Palm Beach County Courthouse was built to the design of Wilber Talley in 1916. An east annex, also designed by Talley, was added in 1927 and other additions in 1955. A 135,000-square-foot wrap-around expansion in 1972, designed by Jefferson N. Powell and Donald Edge mummified the original structure and part of the original building was given away or destroyed. The Palm Beach Memorial Park Cemetery located in Lantana received some of its 12 masonry columns. Six of the columns also stand at the entrance to the Hillcrest Memorial Park Cemetery in southern West Palm Beach. After many individual and collective efforts to save the historic courthouse from demolition, led by community preservationists and Historical Society leaders, the Board of County Commissioners voted in April 2002 to preserve and share the building with the public, committing to pay the estimated $18.5 million to restore the building to its original, neo classical grandeur.

The opportunity paved the way for the Historical Society of Palm Beach County to request space for the countys first history museum inside the restored courthouse. The museums design plans include permanent and temporary exhibit space, each reflecting the influence of the many cultures in Palm Beach Countys diverse history, from the earliest Native American inhabitants to the present day. A central component to the museum expereince will be a visit to the seat of the countys judicial and legislative beginnings, the courthouses two story, 2,897 square foot historic courtroom, located on the third and fourth floors in the center of the building.

28 June 1986 was the annual Lytham Club Day. A procession took place during the morning which saw the main town roads closed. Most buses terminated on Woodville Terrace adjacent to Lowther Gardens. This would include Fylde buses on the 4 to St. Annes and 11A to Blackpool and buses on the 22/22A to Cleveleys. Several duplicates were provided to cope with club day crowds and here Fylde 77 - the sole survivor of Lytham's three 1970 Atlanteans is parked up awaiting an opportunity to assist. By this time 77 was the last DD to retain blue, white and yellow livery and was repainted later in the year.
