paragraph: Arkady Shilkloper

paragraph: Arkady Shilkloper (born October 17, 1956) is a Russian multi-instrumentalist (horn, alphorn, flugelhorn, vogelhorn, ELEPHANT-Horn, corno da caccia, corno pastoriccio, didgeridoo) and composer, currently living in Germany. He is also known as one of the best jazz performers on horn and alphorn in the world.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Shilkloper was born in Moscow and started playing alto horn at the age of six. and switched to horn in 1967. At the age of eleven he entered the Moscow Military Music School. After two years of military service (1974 - 1976) he studied at the Moscow Gnessin Institute (Gnessin Russian Academy of Music) from 1976 to 1981. At the same time he began his career in the orchestra of the Bolshoi Theatre (1978 - 1985) and also began his first jazz activities.

paragraph: In 1984, he formed a duo with his colleague from the Bolshoi Theatre, bassist Mikhail Karetnikow, with whom he recorded the LP "Move". (Melodiya, С60 26043 003)

paragraph: "Horncall", 1988, by Jeffrey Agrell (Professor of Horn at the University of Iowa School of Music)

paragraph: “Shilkloper and his bass player swing like nobody’s business. He rips and riffs and goes places that horn players aren’t supposed to go without a net, map, seat belt, crash helmet, overhead air support, and a note from their mothers. And he does so with extraordinary ease and musicality. I think maybe nobody ever told him ‘Jazz playing on horn is very difficult, and probably not natural or perhaps the phrase does not translate into Russian.’ I’d walk a camel a mile to hear this guy.”

paragraph: From 1985 to 1989 he played with A. Kirichenko and S. Letov in the band Tri-O (LP "Three Holes").

paragraph: At the same period he was a member of the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra.

paragraph: Since 1986 he collaborates with pianist Mikhail Alperin. Their first album "Wave of Sorrow" (1990) was the first Russian album on ECM. Later Shilkloper participated in three more Alperin recordings for ECM: «North Story» (1997), «First Impression» (1999) and «Her First Dance» (2008).

paragraph: The «First Impression» was recorded in December 1997 at Rainbow Studio, Oslo. Tyran Grillo wrote in his review: "Ukrainian pianist and composer Misha Alperin joins forces for the first time in session with British reedist John Surman (a last-minute replacement for Tore Brunborg) in this melodious, spontaneous set. Augmented by Arkady Shilkloper on horn and flugelhorn, Terje Gewelt on bass, and Jon Christensen on drums, their hypnotic nexus breathes ounces of thematic life into the “Overture” in watery, stepwise motion. Surman’s reptilian soprano takes us in some unexpected directions throughout a holistic introduction, while his unmistakable baritone threads resilient cables through “Twilight house” and “City Dance.” The first of these is where the session truly comes to life through his interactions with Alperin, while the latter serves a touch of groove in a veritable trill buffet (think "Snakeoil"). “Movement” features classical percussionist Hans-Kristian Kjos Sørensen (heard previously on "No Birch") in a spindly improv, the pointillism and melancholy draw of which only thinly veil its composed undercurrent. A lovely solo from Shilkloper on horn rises like a paper lantern lit and offered to the sky. Yet these are but the roofing to the album’s five “Impressions,” each a pillar in the dust."

paragraph: In 1990, the Alperin-Shilkloper duo invites Sergey Starostin, a Moscow Conservatory-educated clarinetist and a researcher of Russian authentic folklore music, which results in the creation of "Moscow Art Trio". The trio tours regularly, though its members now live in three different countries; it is one of the most interesting and well-known Ethno Jazz groups from Russia. In Russia, their albums were released by Boheme Music; in Europe, by Jaro.

paragraph: In 1990, Shilkloper visited US for the first time. According to Leonard Feather from the Los Angeles Times, "the Soviet horn virtuoso was one of four Jazzmen from the Soviet Union who arrived here last week to take part in the 23rd annual University of Idaho Jazz Festival at his home town's namesake city. Shilkloper, 33, on his first visit to the United States was the artistic sensation of the four-day event."

paragraph: Since 1995, Arkady Shilkloper plays in "Pago Libre" with Austrian violinist Tscho Theissing, Swiss pianist John Wolf Brennan and Austrian bassist Georg Breinschmid (since January 2012, new member on double bass: Tom Götze from Dresden).

paragraph: Since 1998, Arkady also plays alphorn, quite an unusual instrument for improvised music. Arkady rates one of the best of the few existing jazz performers on alphorn. His "Pilatus", "Presente Para Moscou" and "Zum Gipfel und zurück" albums feature a lot of his alphorn playing.

paragraph: In 1998 - 2002 Arkady Shilkloper performed with Europe's leading big band, the Vienna Art Orchestra.

paragraph: In 2000, Arkady put together the "Mauve Trio" with "Alegre Corrêa" (guitar) and Georg Breinschmid (double bass). Their debut album "Mauve" (Quinton Records, 2002) was awarded the prestigious Hans Koller Prize of Austria as the "CD of the Year".

paragraph: In 2004, he gave the first performance of the Concerto for Alphorn and Orchestra of Daniel Schnyder, a work commissioned by the Menuhin Festival in Gstaad.

paragraph: In 2012, he started a collaboration with overtone singer Christian Zehnder and John Wolf Brennan

paragraph: In 2015, Jazzahead presented his duet with the young Ukrainian jazz pianist Vadim Neselovskyi.

paragraph: Shilkloper has mastered extended techniques for both the horn and the alphorn. According to Leonard Feather, his control of the horn and his creativity have set a new standard.

paragraph: Joachim Mörlin

paragraph: Joachim Mörlin April 5, 1514, Wittenberg, Electorate of Saxony – May 29, 1571, Königsberg, Duchy of Prussia (later Kaliningrad in the Soviet Union / Russian Federation after World War II - 1945) was a theologian and an important figure in the controversies following Martin Luther's (1483-1546) death. He was the older brother of Maximilian Mörlin, another Lutheran theologian and Reformer.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Mörlin was born at Wittenberg, where his father, Jodok Mörlin, also known as Jodocus Morlinus, was the Professor of Philosophy at the University of Wittenberg. Joachim himself studied at the same University under Luther, Philipp Melanchthon, Justus Jonas, and Casper Cruciger the Elder from 1532 to 1536. After a brief residence at Coburg, he returned to Wittenberg and in 1539 became Luther's chaplain, declining a call to succeed Poliander at Königsberg. While a true pupil of Luther, Mörlin was more influenced by the dogmatics of Melanchthon, though devoid of sympathy with the Philippistic efforts for union with the Reformed.

paragraph: On September 22, 1540, Joachim left Wittenberg to become superintendent at Arnstadt, where, until deposed in March 1543 for his rigid discipline and opposition to union, he displayed great activity, moral earnestness, and courage. But neither the appeal of his congregation nor the sympathy of Luther could overcome the hostility of the Count of Schwartzburg, Günther XL.

paragraph: On May 10, 1544, Mörlin became superintendent at Göttingen. Here he was equally firm in insistence on purity of life and doctrine, and wrote his "Enchiridion catecheticum" (1544), taught rhetoric in the Latin school, and lectured on Erasmus and the Loci of Melanchthon. Mörlin's activity in Göttingen came to an end with his uncompromising resistance to the union advocated by the Interim. On January 17, 1550, after vain protests by both council and congregation to the Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg, Eric II, Mörlin was dismissed from office.

paragraph: Mörlin went to Erfurt, thence to Arnstadt, and finally to Schleusingen, where he lived and preached in the castle of William IV, the Count of Henneberg. Yet even here Mörlin was not altogether safe, and on August 25, 1550, he left Schleusingen, arriving at Königsberg on September 13. There, since Prussia did not belong constitutionally to the Holy Roman Empire, he could not be molested, and was appointed, on September 27, 1550, pastor at the Kneiphöfer Dom and inspector.

paragraph: Section::::Controversy with Osiander.

paragraph: There Mörlin became involved in the Osiandrian controversy, for it was not in his nature to remain neutral. However, the break between Mörlin and Osiander was gradual. When the latter defended his view of justification (act. 24, 1550), Mörlin remained a silent witness; but Osiander's work with on the incarnation and the image of God, and still more his "Bericht und Trostschrift", with its savage attack on Melanchthon, led Mörlin to complain on February 7, 1551, to Albert of Prussia, though he did this so delicately that the duke commissioned him and Aurifaber, Osiander's son-in-law, to assemble the theologians for the conference which was held February 13–17. Here Mörlin's sincere desire for peace was evident, but his suspicion of Osiander increased, even though the latter claimed to be in harmony with Luther, denying the truth of Mörlin's "Antilogia seu contraria doctrina inter Lutherum et Osiandrum". On April 19 Mörlin preached against those who depreciated the merits of Christ, and Osiander rightly took this as directed against himself.

paragraph: The breach was now complete, and after an interchange of recriminations, Mörlin was replaced by Stancarus, professor of Hebrew. Before a new colloquy could be held, however, the duke directed (May 8) first Osiander and then his opponents to present their views in writing. Osiander hesitated, and Mörlin attacked him from the pulpit (May 27). The duke now forced Mörlin to defend his tenets in writing, and further roused him and his followers to passionate resistance by appointing Osiander to administer the bishopric of Samland, and by requiring Mörlin and others to submit to the decision of the church. The characteristic reply (July 21) was that Mörlin and his adherents refused to recognize Osiander's jurisdiction, since he was a heretic, and they appealed to a free synod. Osiander's opponents now continued their attacks and virtually met up a separate church. This was forbidden by the duke (August 12), who sent them Osiander's confession of faith, which was returned unread.

paragraph: The polemics still continued, and Albert in despair sent Osiander's confession to the princes and cities of Germany, urging a synod. Mörlin's position was gaining strength in Prussia, and the majority of the opinions of the churches outside Prussia were also favorable to him. The very refusal of the duke to publish these condemnations of Osiander aided Mörlin, who, on May 23, 1552, published a polemic defending the doctrine of justification against his opponent, in which he clearly set forth the orthodox Wittenberg position, and emphasized the difference between it and Osiander's teaching. Besides continuing to urge the publication of the opinions just mentioned, Mörlin preached a sermon (June, 1552) directed against Osiander, deprecating speculations on the inscrutable essence of God; and Osiander replied with his impassioned "Schmeckbier", in which he arraigned Mörlin and his friends.

paragraph: The controversy increased in pettiness and coarseness, until Albert threatened (July 15, 1552) to depose Mörlin, only to receive the respectful but firm reply that Mörlin held it his divinely commissioned duty to polemize against Osiander. Meanwhile, a second opinion came from Württemberg, and from it both Osiander and Mörlin claimed the support of Johann Brenz, but on October 17, 1552, the weary struggle found its end in the death of Osiander, a defeated man.

paragraph: Section::::Driven from Königsberg.

paragraph: The peace-loving policy of Albert was still to demonstrate its futility. The ambiguity of the Württemberg declaration seemed to him to constitute a good formula of union, and on January 24, 1553, he required that sermons on justification should be preached according to the six Württemberg articles, and that all coarseness should be avoided. This was tantamount to a defense of Osiandrianism, but the great majority of the duke's subjects were opposed, while Mörlin declared himself unable to obey the ducal mandate when contrary to the obligations of religion. This was the only course open to him, but the duke's displeasure was now finally incurred, and on February 16, 1553, he presented his resignation. Three days later he sought refuge in Danzig, where he awaited an expected recall, supported as he was by the council and the citizens. But all appeals to the duke were in vain; and the exile at last resigned himself to his punishment and sought for a new field of activity.

paragraph: Mörlin had not long to wait. Brunswick and Lübeck were rivals for his services; the former won by right of priority, and he entered Brunswick on July 25, 1553. In the following year he received an assistant in the Melanchthonian Martin Chemnitz, and developed a powerful activity, strengthening the Lutheran cause with the aid of the religious peace of Augsburg, and preparing, in 1577, his "Leges pro ministerio Brunsvicensi", which all the clergy of his superintendency were required to subscribe when entering upon office. He assailed the Reformed as bitterly as the Roman Catholics.

paragraph: Again, in 1564, the council of Brunswick enacted that the "Corpus doctrinae" should be subscribed by all theologians, a rule which remained in force until 1672. And this was no dead letter, for in 1566 Johannes Becker, a pastor in Brunswick who had subscribed to the "Corpus" but become a Calvinist, was forced to resign and ultimately was banished from the city.

paragraph: Meanwhile, Mörlin and Chemnitz were active in other inter-Lutheran controversies and in warding off Calvinistic attacks; and the former was the prime mover in the rejection, by the Brunswick clergy, of the doctrines of Schwenckfeld, besides being one of those asked by the council of Bremen to settle the dispute between and Albert Hardenberg. He furthermore defended Hesshusen in his pamphlet "Wider die Landlügen der heidelbergischen Theologen" (1565).

paragraph: Section::::Efforts for Theological Reconciliation.

paragraph: In the struggle with Calvinism Mörlin supported Joachim Westphal, and to this end wrote his "Confessio fidei de eucharistiae sacramento ministrorum ecclesiarum Saxonicarum" (Magdeburg, 1557). At Coswik he sought to mediate between Melanchthon and Flacius, and in his eagerness for peace, when the delegates of the Hanseatic League assembled at Brunswick, he held a conference with Chemnitz, Westphal, and others (January 14, 1557), and reached an agreement on articles tending to reconcile the adiaphorists and those holding to the true Gospel. Mörlin then took these articles to Flacius at Magdeburg, after which he conferred with Melanchthon at Wittenberg, but returned to Brunswick unsuccessful (January 28, 1557).

paragraph: Eight months later Mörlin went to the Colloquy of Worms, but by his opposition to the Philippists and by his withdrawal helped render the conference resultless. In December, 1558, he visited Weimar and Jena to reconcile Flacius and Strigel, and in 1560 he signed the petition of the Jena theologians to the princes to call a Lutheran synod to combat Calvinism. Mörlin was also a prominent figure at the conference of theologians from Lower Saxony held at Lüneburg in July, 1561, and wrote the confession of faith there drawn up, "Erklärung aus Gottes Wort und kurzer Bericht der Artikel", etc. (Magdeburg, Jena, and Regensburg, 1561), which became binding on all pastors in Brunswick; and he again showed his Wittenberg orthodoxy in his "Verantwortung der Präfation so für die lüneburgischen Artikel" (1562).

paragraph: In 1563 the Council of Wesel asked the opinion of the Brunswick theologians for a ruling on the admission of Reformed refugees from England, and the decision was that the immigrants should be received and instructed; but, should they propagate their erroneous views, they should be expelled.

paragraph: In 1566 and 1567 Mörlin found himself compelled to break with his old friend Flacius because of the latter's teaching on original sin; and at the same time he wrote against the Antinomians his "Tres disputationes de tertio usu legis".

paragraph: Section::::Recalled to Königsberg.

paragraph: Meanwhile, inspired partly by him, the struggle had continued in Prussia between the Melanchthonians and the Osiandrian peace-policy of the court. Well informed of all that went on in Königsberg, Mörlin strengthened his sympathisers with his "Historia welcher Gestalt sich die osiandrische Schwärmerei im Lande zu Preussen erhoben" (Brunswick, 1554). In 1555 he published two other pamphlets on the course of events in Prussia; and finally Albert found himself obliged to yield.

paragraph: On November 30, 1566, Mörlin was invited to return to Prussia, but he declined to leave Brunswick. The invitation was repeated, however (January 31, 1567), and after much persuasion Mörlin accepted and obtained leave of absence from the reluctant Council of Brunswick. On April 9, 1567, he and Chemnitz were joyfully welcomed in Königsberg, and at once began the restoration of Melanchthonian orthodoxy.

paragraph: After much consideration it was decided that the confessional bases should remain the Augsburg Confession, the Apology, and the Schmalkald Articles, the only change being the correction of certain false doctrines which had crept in since the formulation of the Augsburg Confession. The duke, assenting to the rejection of Osiandrianism, readily agreed, and on May 6 Mörlin and Chemnitz gave him their "Repetitio corporis doctrinae Christianae", refuting Osiandrianism, Synergism, Antinomianism, Majorism, and similar teachings. Accepted by the synod and the estates, the "Repetitio" was proclaimed by Albert on July 8, 1567, and Prussia was at last free from theological rancor.

paragraph: Section::::Becomes Bishop of Samland.

paragraph: Though offered the bishopric of Samland, and though urged by clergy and laity alike to remain in Prussia, Mörlin still felt bound to Brunswick. Accordingly, promised by the estates (June 8, 1567) that no Calvinists should be allowed at court, he returned to Brunswick. But his stay there was brief, and he was unexpectedly released. Learning that a patricide had been let go free, both he and Chemmtz sharply upbraided the magistracy in a sermon on July 13, and were cited to appear before the court. Under these circumstances the envoys of Albert succeeded in inducing the council, unwilling though it was even then, to let Mörlin go (September 24, 1567). He was now declared bishop of Samland, while Chemnitz was made superintendent. Henceforth until his death, in his new office, Mörlin was active in preaching and catechizing, never ceasing to polemize against Philippists, Synergists, and, above all, Calvinists. He died, aged 57, in Königsberg.

paragraph: Qutubuddin Shaheed

paragraph: Syedna Qutbuddin Shaheed was born in Ahmedabad during the era of the 26th Dai Syedna Daud ibn Ajab-Shah, on the night of 30th Zul-Qada 985 H.

paragraph: During his youth, he accompanied his father, the 27th Dai Syedna Daud ibn Qutub-Shah to Lahore to the court of the Mughal Emperor Jalaluddin Akbar during the fitnat of Sulayman. Akbar had summoned Syedna Daud ibn Qutub-Shah to his court and ultimately issued a royal farmaan in his favor.

paragraph: He was close-confidant to his brother, the 29th Dai Syedna Abdut-Tayyeb Zakiyuddin. The 30th Dai Syedna Ali Shamsuddin was based in Yemen, and Syedna Qutbuddin continued to serve him in India. The 31st Dai, Syedna Qasim-Khan Zainuddin appointed him as his Mazoon (2nd rank following Dai-al-Mutlaq), and then successor.

paragraph: Qutubuddin saheb became Da'i al-Mutlaq in 1054 AH / 1646AD. His period of Fatemi Dawat was from 1054 -1056 AH (1646-1648 AD). He was executed by Aurangzeb, then governor of Gujarat, for heresy.

paragraph: The following is a brief account of Qutbuddin’s martyrdom:

paragraph: In the month of Jumadal-Ula of the year 1056 H/1646 AD, false allegations of “rifadat” (rafidi, one who rejects the sunnat of Nabi Mohammad, and introductions of innovations (bid’at) in Islamic religious practice), were made to Abdul-Ghawi an official of Aurangzeb, Mughal governor of Ahmedabad. A Shia man named Shah-Beg was told to arrest Syedna Qutbuddin, On 28 Jumadal-Ula. Syedna Fir-Khan went along with him.

paragraph: Syedna Qutbuddin spent the next twenty days in prison, meanwhile, Abdul Ghawi instructed his scholars to peruse Syedna’s books, taken from his residence following an arrest, but was unable to discern meaning. On 21 Jumada-l-Ukhra, Syedna Qutbuddin was summoned to an audience in front of Aurangzeb. Abdul Ghawi said to Syedna Qutbuddin, “Admit that you are “rafzi”, repent your past sins, and the Prince will release you.” Syedna Qutbuddin proclaimed, “I am not Rafzi, nor were my forefathers Rafzi. We are truly upon the Sunnat of Prophet Mohammad. I declare that there is no god but Allah and Muhammad is his prophet. I read the Quran, I pray namaaz, give zakaat, fast in the holy month of Ramadan, and perform hajj to the Baytullah. I am a Muslim. How is my blood legal for you to shed?” Unsuccessful in getting a real confession, Abdul Ghawi attempted to gather a group of notables from the city to sign their names to a false confession (mehzara). The majority signed, fearing retribution. The confession was placed in front of a judge, but it was ruled that no verdict could be made without a confirmed confession or testimonial. On 26 Jumada-l-Ukhra, Abdul Ghawi summoned two young children from Syedna Qutbuddin’s household to testify in court against Qutbuddin. They were told that their testimonial (that Qutbuddin was not on the sunnat of the Prophet, and "rafzi") would result in Qutbuddin would be released. When the judge heard this, he ruled in favor of Abdul Ghawi, and issued a death sentence.

paragraph: On the morning of 27 Jumada-l-Ukhra, 1056 H, Aurangzeb approved the execution order. Abdul Ghawi instructed Shah-Beg to carry out the death sentence immediately.

paragraph: He was succeeded by the 33rd Dai, Syedna Feer Khan Shujauddin. Present Dai Syedna Mufaddal Saifuddin is from his progeny, as indicated in tree placed below.

paragraph: Edmund Morel (railway engineer)

paragraph: Edmund Morel (17 November 1840 – 5 November 1871) was a British civil engineer who was engaged in railway construction in many countries, including New Zealand, Australia, and Japan. He was the first foreign Engineer-in-Chief appointed by the Japanese government, for guiding and supervising railway construction.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Morel was born in London on 17 November 1840 (recorded as 1841 on his gravestone). He studied civil engineering at King's College London.

paragraph: Between 1862 and 1863, Morel was involved in railway construction in New Zealand followed by a period in Australia between 1864 and 1865.

paragraph: In 1867, Morel was active in British North Borneo for the Labuan Coal Company, building railways and sinking mining shafts, living at Labuan island, when he was invited to Japan by British envoy Sir Harry Parkes. During his short assignment he made significant proposals to the Japanese government regarding engineering administration and education. The government established the Ministry of Public Works in December 1870 on his advice to integrate the introduction of foreign technologies and their application. Morel designed Japan's first railway, connecting Shimbashi Station in Tokyo with Sakuragichō Station in Yokohama. The locomotives and rails were imported from England. Through discussions with Itō Hirobumi and Ōkuma Shigenobu, Morel advised on what industries and technologies were necessary for Japan to build railways, and through discussions Japan's standard gauge of was established. During poor weather when work on the line was not possible, he took his Japanese engineers and surveyors into his house for lectures.

paragraph: Morel suffered from tuberculosis before his arrival in Japan, and as his condition worsened he resigned his post with the intention going to India. He received a 5,000 yen reward from the Japanese government, a tremendous amount at the time. However, he died in Yokohama on 5 November 1871, shortly before the opening ceremonies for the railway. His grave in the Foreigner's Cemetery in Naka-ku, Yokohama is designated as a "national railway memorial". A bronze bust outside Sakuragichō Station commemorates his work.

paragraph: Morel's wife was long reported to have been Japanese, but this was made up by a novelist to make Morel's story more interesting: he married Harriett Wynder, an Englishwoman, on 4 February 1862 at St Pancras Church in London. She died in Yokohama on 6 November 1871, the day after Morel, from acute nervous or respiratory disease.

A basilica was built in Poreč in the 5th century called Euphrasian Basilica where the relics of Saint Maurus, now the patron saint of the city, are kept in the votive chapel called a martyrium. He is shown on the mosaic of the basilica with a martyr's crown in his hand.
