Chanin Building

Chanin used his own architectural department head, Jacques I. Delamarre and Rene Chambellan, an architectural sculptor, to decorate the interiors. Fantastic Art Deco grills, elevator doors, mailboxes and sculptures greeted the visitor. Two bronze-painted plaster reliefs by Chambellan represent Achievement and Success. The means to gain these are represented in six matching reliefs: three are physical, Effort, Activity and Endurance; and three are mental, Enlightenment, Vision, and Courage.

Simone Kermes - Casta Diva

Published on Oct 19, 2013

From Simone Kermes' lovely new album "Bel Canto: From Monteverdi to Verdi"
Which explores the history and evolution of bel canto from baroque to romanticism.
Though her voice is completely wrong for the role of Norma, she does a beautiful job with aria - a prayer for peace to the goddess of the moon. She also demonstrates immense breathe control and flexibility. I imagine her sound is closer to perhaps how Adelina Patti or Jenny Lind sang this piece.
