# Teatro Giuseppe Verdi

Teatro Giuseppe Verdi (the Giuseppe Verdi Theatre) is a small opera house located in a wing of the Rocca dei Marchesi Pallavicino on the Piazza Giuseppe Verdi in Busseto, Italy, a town closely associated with the life of the opera composer, Giuseppe Verdi. From the 13th century, the “rocca” or “fortress” was the family's palace; it is now the city hall after being acquired by the municipality in 1856. The theatre opened on 15 August 1868 and seats 300.
Prior to 1856, a theatre existed in the same location, and while plans to build a new one were begun in 1845, nothing happened until the municipality took over. Designed by Pier Luigi Montecchini, the theatre is located on an upper level of the City Hall and is reached by a large staircase. Outside the theatre is a bust of Verdi by Giovanni Dupré. The interior
is traditionally horseshoe-shaped with three rows of boxes and an elegantly designed ceiling featuring four medallions representing comedy, tragedy, melodrama, and romantic drama.
Although Verdi opposed its construction (it would be “too expensive and useless in the future”, he said) and is reputed never to have set foot in it, he did contribute 10,000 lire towards the construction and maintained his own box. On opening night, operagoers dressed in green (the color in Italian is verde), the men all wearing green cravats, the women wearing green dresses. Two of Verdi's operas were presented, Rigoletto and Un ballo in maschera. Verdi did not attend even though he lived only two miles away at his home, the Villa Verdi, in the village of Sant’Agata in Villanova sull'Arda.
In 1913, Arturo Toscanini conducted a performance of Falstaff in celebration of the centenary of Verdi's birth and to raise funds for what is now a large monument of the seated composer located in the piazza. In 2001 the theatre re-painted the sets from 1913 for a revival; these were used again in October 2013 for a Verdi bi-centenary performance of Falstaff.
The theatre was extensively renovated in the 1990s. It presents a regular season of opera performances.
# Ryukyukoku Matsuri Daiko North Carolina

Ryukyukoku Matsuri Daiko North Carolina is chapter of the Okinawan Eisa taiko ensemble Ryukyukoku Matsuri Daiko. The organization has chapters in Okinawa Prefecture, mainland Japan, Argentina, Brazil, Peru, Bolivia, and various US locations.

## History

The Ryukyukoku Matsuri Daiko (Ryukyu Kingdom Festival Drums) was formed in Okinawa in 1982 by former members of an Okinawan City youth group. The Ryukyu Kingdom is the ancient name for what is presently known as Okinawa, Japan. Located just southwest of mainland Japan and northeast of Taiwan, it consists of about fifty islands, of which Okinawa is the largest. Due to its unique location, its culture and traditions have been greatly influenced not only by Japan, but also China, Korea and southeast Asia.
In 1994 a chapter of this organization was formed in Jacksonville, North Carolina. The group ranges in age from 5 years through late 20s. The group has performed at many festivals and events in North Carolina as well as New York City, Washington, DC and Virginia.

## Music and Choreography

Ryukyukoku Matsuri Daiko's type of drum dancing is based on the old tradition of "eisa" (Okinawan obon drum dancing), but has a distinctive style of high kicks, karate moves and synchronized dance choreography. This organization was formed for the purpose of providing activities for the teenage youth group to keep them gainfully occupied. The young people of Okinawa gather in the summer "eisa" festival to dance for their ancestors. Using a variety of drums, they sing and dance asking their ancestors for good health and prosperity. The performers dance and drum simultaneously to an exciting blend of traditional and contemporary Okinawan and Japanese music. The group performs with several types of drums: the odaiko (big drum), which is suspended in front of the body by long pieces of purple cloth over the shoulder and back, the shime-daiko (hand-held, flat, two-sided drum), and the paranku (hand-held, flat, one-sided drum).
The logo for all Ryukyukoku Matsuri Daiko chapters around the world is a stylized version of the Japanese kanji for heart imposed over a circle in red and white. The logo symbolizes the spirit of Okinawan eisa taiko and friendship spreading around the world, a theme often promoted by the club.
Performers wear a black and white uniform styled on a Chinese costume called mumunchinhata. The uniform includes a red and gold obi and hachimaki or sagi for members in high school and older. Younger performers wear pink. Adult performers who use only the paranku wear yellow. There are a variety of other colored uniforms including yellow, red and green worn by performers who are dancing special parts.

# The Broken-Link Handicap

The Rudyard Kipling story "The Broken-Link Handicap" was first published in the first Indian edition of Plain Tales from the Hills in 1888, and in subsequent editions of that collection.
Kipling states that horse-racing among the British community in India is a thoroughly immoral pastime in which almost everyone involved loses money. By chance, an otherwise undistinguished horse named "Shackles" proves to be unbeatable over two miles, "so long as his jockey sat still". His owner takes Shackles to the Autumn Races at the station of Chedputter "in the North", and insults almost everyone. They go to the Honorary Secretary and arrange a race to be called "The Broken-Link Handicap" because its purpose is to "break Shackles".
Although Shackles's owner is confident in his horse and his Australian jockey, Brunt, the owner of a less-fancied horse, "The Lady Regula Baddun" (named as a delicate tribute to Mrs. Reiver, see The Rescue of Pluffles), knows that Brunt is traumatised by a horrific fall at the Maribyrnong Plate in Melbourne where four jockeys were killed and often tells of how the jockey Whalley said "God ha' mercy, I'm done for" seconds before he was crushed. He also knows that at one end of the Chedputter course, two old brick mounds enclosing a funnel shaped hollow focus speech in an ordinary tone of voice into a whining echo.
Midway through the race, with Shackles about to pull clear of the pack, Brunt hears a ghostly voice saying "God ha' mercy, I'm done for." He screams and digs his spurs into Shackles, who throws him off. Regula Baddun wins in a close finish. Her owner has won about fifteen thousand rupees. Almost everyone else concerned has been broken, none more so than Brunt who is too unnerved ever to race again.
Kipling comments at the end that what he has related is the truth, but nobody will believe it, even though they will believe the most absurd speculation about Russia's designs on India, or the "recommendations of the Currency Commission".
    All quotations in this article have been taken from the Uniform Edition of Plain Tales from the Hills published by Macmillan & Co., Limited in London in 1899. The text is that of the third edition (1890), and the author of the article has used his own copy of the 1923 reprint.

# Kolt Church

Kolt Church (Danish: Kolt Kirke) is a church located in Kolt Parish in Aarhus, Denmark. The church is situated in the Hasselager neighborhood, south-west of Viby. It is a parish church of the Church of Denmark and there's population of 6.973 within the parish borders (2016).

## History

Kolt Church was built sometime between 1150 and 1250 like most of the small Danish village churches. It is probable that the king had the patronage of Kolt Church in the Middle Ages. In 1433 it is mentioned as Vor Frue Kirke (Church of Our Lady), as written on the altar chalice. In the period between 1661 and 1675 the Danish crown sold the church to the Count Mogens Friis who made it a part of the duchy Frijsenborg. In 1802 the church was sold on auction to members of the parish and in 1924 it became a self-owning institution. Since the 1550s the church has functioned as a church annex to the village Ormslev under joint supervision of Ormslev-Kolt Church Office (Ormslev-Kolt kirkekontor). In 1819 the position as church guardian was temporary and passed around in the parish resulting in poor maintenance as nobody wanted to invest in maintenance and renovation during their short tenures. Today Kolt Church is situated in a neighborhood of Aarhus.

## Architecture

Kolt Church consists of Romanesque apse, chancel and nave with two late-Medieval additions: the porch in the south and the tower in the west. The Romanesque sections are built of rough and hewn granite boulders on a chamfered base; ashlar were used in the corners and around the windows and doors. Gothic vaults were included in the chancel and nave in the late Middle Age. In the masonry of the tower a quantity of re-used granite ashlar is included which may have been brought here from a demolished church. The spire, which is in a mansard style, was erected in the 1700s.
# Teatro Giacosa
