3) Christian Gerhaher is BaritonDoc

© Barbara Aumueller
http://www.gerhaher.de
See press reviews:
"Baritone Christian Gerhaher put his big,
smooth voice to impressive use in four strictly macho arias, including an
extended one originally intended for Guglielmo in "Cosi fan tutte" but
dropped by Mozart as too heavy for the action. This and Figaro's "Se vuol
ballare," his taunt to his nemesis, Count Almaviva, fell between the cracks
in the "Linz."
Later, there was more Figaro ("Non piu andrai"), along with a switch to
Almaviva ("Hai gia vinto la causa"), requiring a heftier tone. All four
arias were rendered with such veiled snarl and menace that you wondered if
this singer had a lyrical mode. Indeed he did. As an encore, he turned oily
seducer in Don Giovanni's balcony serenade, complete with mandolin
accompaniment."
Andrew L. Pincus - The Berkshire Eagle, 02.08.2008
|
"Between the movements Christian Gerhaher, a
baritone with a rich tone and a seemingly infallible ear for dramatic
phrasing, gave rich-hued accounts of the concert aria 'Rivolgete a lui lo
sguardo' (K. 584) and 'Se vuol ballare,' from 'Le Nozze di Figaro.'
Later in the program Mr. Gerhaher returned to give vital performances of two
more 'Figaro' arias, 'Non più andrai' and 'Hai già vinta la causa,' and, as
an encore, 'Deh vieni alla finestra,' from 'Don Giovanni.'"
Allan Kozinn - New York Times, 02.08.2008 |
"Saturday night in Harris Hall,
baritone Christian Gerhaher sang an extraordinarily fine program of Schumann
songs. Gerhaher's shock of curly hair and shy demeanor drew his audience
close, and his silky sound wove an entrancing spell. His high baritone
soared easily to gleaming high notes, with no sense of strain. He displayed
an actor's attention to words and their meaning, coupled with a musician's
sense of phrasing and dynamics. The music just flowed. Each song in
"Dichterliebe," the centerpiece of the evening, had tremendous
individuality, while fitting seamlessly with the ones around it. That's
outstanding lieder singing.
Harvey Steiman - THE ASPEN TIMES, Aspen, Co Colorado, July 30, 2008

"[...] That last song, a sort
of second movement to the much shorter ones that came before, sounded not
unlike “Der Leiermann” from Schubert’s Winterreise when flute and baritone
presented their lamento over the double bass’ pedal point. Suddenly the
work’s greatness was easy to detect and feel. And throughout there was
Gerhaher’s pianissimo that stood in the room as if spoken: immovable,
utterly exposed, with deadly accuracy and such great delicacy and control
that only superlatives would do it justice: think of a cellist, who manages
to get the finest, yet softest tone from his instrument instantaneously,
instead of wiggling his way to the right pitch and dynamic level. That’s how
Gerhaher’s “Ewig”. They really were “ewig” as they faded into the silence of
the Herkulessaal, not hushed but nearly inaudible – terrific!"

Lessing was born in
Kamenz,
a little town in
Saxony. His father was a clergyman and the author of theological
writings. After visiting Latin School in Kamenz (from 1737 onwards) and
the
Fürstenschule St. Afra in
Meissen
(from 1741 onwards) he studied theology and medicine in
Leipzig
(1746-1748).
From 1748 to 1760 he lived in Leipzig and
Berlin
and worked as reviewer and editor for, amongst others, the
Vossische Zeitung. In 1752 he took his Master's degree in
Wittenberg. From 1760 to 1765 he worked in
Breslau (now Wroclaw) as secretary to
General Tauentzien. In 1765 he returned to Berlin, only to leave
again in 1767 to work for three years as a
dramaturg and adviser at the German National Theatre in
Hamburg.
There he met
Eva König, his future wife.

11) Jonathan Miller is
DirectorDoc
|
Theater and opera
director Jonathan Miller is a “physician and neuropsychologist, a prolific
author and lecturer,” wrote The New York Times.
“[He] knows more than a little about everything. He combines qualities
that shouldn’t be combined in one person: he is both a performer and a
thinker.”
Miller first gained
international prominence with Beyond the Fringe,
the 1960 play that redefined the boundaries of comedy, launching a lunatic
legacy that has stretched from Monty Python
to Saturday Night Live. He
has enjoyed one of the most stellar careers in modern theater, directing
countless plays (including 11 for the BBC’s Shakespeare series) and over
50 operas at some of the world’s most distinguished venues from La Scala
to The Metropolitan Opera.
He has written and
presented several major series for the BBC and PBS including The Body
in Question, a landmark series on the
history of medicine and, most recently, A Brief History of
Disbelief. His books include
The Human Body, The Facts of Life, Subsequent Performances, Nowhere in
Particular and On
Reflection, based on his lectures.
For colleges and
universities interested in an extended visit, Dr. Miller accepts
occasional one or two-week residencies. His multidisciplinary expertise
has made these very popular.

Had Emanuel Miller's introduction to the UK of the child
guidance movement – the precursor of child and adolescent mental
health services – been his only achievement, it would have been
enough by itself to earn him his place among the pioneers of
modern thinking and practice on behalf of children's health and
development.
Born in 1893 in Whitechapel, London to emigre
parents from Lithuania, Miller won a scholarship to Cambridge
University where he studied natural and moral sciences.
Throughout his life, he maintained a keen interest in both
science, especially zoology, and theology. He was a gifted
Hebrew scholar but returned to London and qualified in medicine
in 1918 before returning to Cambridge to extend his studies in
Psychological Medicine.
He devoted particular attention to child psychology, child
psychotherapy and child guidance, and in 1926 – long before the
formation of the National Health Service – he became Honorary
Director of the East London Child Guidance Clinic, the first of
its kind in Europe. He was instrumental in opening a similar
clinic at the West End Hospital for Nervous Diseases.
13) Tom Tarter is
CarDoc
I soon learned that Tom was not
your typical incoming med student. Hailing from the Bronx in New York City, Tom
was 31 years old, recently divorced, and had formerly worked as a bouncer,
psychiatric orderly, and auto mechanic. He told me it had taken him 14 long
years to get into medical school. With his unconventional background, I knew
immediately that he had to be in our film about the training of doctors. I was
particularly intrigued to see how Tom would fit into the rather elitist Harvard
Medical School community.

16) Carl von LINNÉ was BotanicDoc
Carl von Linné, Alexander Roslin, 1775.
Currently owned by and displayed at the
Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
Carl Linnaeus (Carl Linné, Latinized as Carolus Linnaeus, also
known after his
ennoblement as
Carl von Linné (help·info),
May 23 new style (13 May old style), 1707[1]
– January
10, 1778) was a
Swedish
botanist,
physician and
zoologist[2]
who laid the foundations for the modern scheme of
Binomial nomenclature. He is known as the father of modern
taxonomy, and is also considered one of the fathers of modern
ecology (see
History of ecology).
In 1735 Linnaeus moved to the
Netherlands, where he was to spend the next three years. Here he earned his
only academic degree, at the
University of Harderwijk, in 6 days. This degree in Medicine consisted of a
three day printing job of his botanical notes in Latin.
Arriving in Stockholm, he settled as a
physician.
In September 1739 Linnaeus married Sara Elisabeth Morea (Moræaus) and the
marriage took place at her family farm Sveden outside Falun; Sara he had met on
one of his first scientific journeys to the county of Dalarna already five years
earlier 1734. In 1739 he was one of the founders of the
Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences (Kungliga vetenskapsakademin). In 1741 he
ascended to the chair of medicine at Uppsala and moved there. The position was
soon exchanged for the chair of botany.[10]

18) Ulf Johannsen is GuitarDoc and Lied-singer
Born in 1968 I worked as a nurse for 15 years, in the end in psychosomatic
hospitals. After a life crisis I made further studies in holistic medicine and
as a meditation teacher. After a spiritual experience I received my first song
"God I want to live!"
Ever since these songs come to me and I have published 5 albums so far. These
spiritual songs are not limited to a certain belief. I have left medicine to
dedicate my life to music. I am married to Silke and we live in Ammerland
(Germany/Niedersachsen) with our kids Jan and Janine.

Singing in all possible sparts, I like to do since
many years. My best teacher, I ever had, was ANNA REYNOLDS in Mannheim. I`ve
visited many Master- and summer-courses in Austria, Italy and Germany. I prefere
to sing songs from Schubert, Schumann, Brahms a.s.o., but also opera-arias or
oratorien for example from J.S.Bach......To sing the II.Dame in the performance
of "Zauberflöte" from W.A.Mozart I would enjoy very much!!
Yours, Gabriele
otherwise she works as a general practitioner in
Heidelberg.

The direction put it as if it wold be a fight between Torero and a bull in the
