The Legacy of the World Cup Eight countries have won the World Cup in its 92-year history. The tournament continues to be a pinnacle of achievement in international football.

The Discovery of a Lost Musical MasterpieceThe discovery of a new work by Ralph Vaughan Williams has set the world alight this week. In a box in the archives of London's Morley College, Elaine Andrews came across a previously unknown Vaughan Williams song titled "Before the Mirror," which sets a Swinburne poem inspired by a Whistler painting. The manuscript's workings, its crossings-out and corrections, offer a fascinating insight into Vaughan Williams's creative process, revealing music of surprising tonal adventure and expressive ambiguity written shortly after his marriage in 1897.The Vast Landscape of Lost Musical WorksBut a single song pales into comparison compared to the musical riches that may be lying dormant in libraries, archives and lofts all over the world. One of the most significant musical finds of all time was the treasure-trove of manuscripts by Florence Price found in a derelict house in Illinois in 2009, which included her two violin concertos, Fourth Symphony and dozens of other pieces. This discovery revealed not only wonderful music, but also pointed to the priorities – and prejudices – of music historians.The Systematic Erasure of Female ComposersThat discovery revealed not only wonderful music, but also pointed to the priorities – and prejudices – of music historians. The discovery of previous unknown manuscripts by the most familiar composers – a single page of Mozart, an exercise by Beethoven, a sketch by Haydn – often happen because historians know where to look for ephemera of lives whose every artefact has been combed over for centuries. But that had not been the case for Price, or for other composers who have been musicologically marginalised. Their work is supposed to be "lost" simply because no one had been looking for it.Rediscovering Forgotten Female VoicesThat's why some of the deepest holes in musical history – works that we know composers wrote and that were performed in their lifetimes, but which their biographies say are now "lost" – are by female composers. Francesca Caccini wrote more than 13 stage works in her lifetime in 17th-century Italy, but only one survives today. Caccini's dozen other operas may currently be "lost," but have researchers been looking for them as assiduously as they search for a page by Bruckner or a letter by Mahler?The Case of Joseph BologneThe same goes for at least three complete operas by Joseph Bologne, who lived an extraordinary life in 18th-century France, as composer, violinist, orchestral leader, fencer and soldier, becoming a colonel in the revolution's only all-black regiment. But Bologne's legacy suffered the prejudices of a culture that reinstated slavery and which erased his contribution to the revolution and to musical society after his death in 1799. Now that Bologne's work is at last finding its place there must be renewed focus on recovering these vital "lost" operas from the oblivion that they never deserved.Legendary Lost Works We Can Only Dream OfMind you, there is also lost music whose absence has been known of for centuries – we can only dream of what could be. Bach's St Mark Passion and scores of his cantatas, Monteverdi's Arianna and other stage works, the dozens of quartets and sonatas that Brahms threw out as unworthy, or Sibelius's Eighth Symphony, likely consigned to the flames by Sibelius himself.New Leadership in Classical MusicIn other classical music news, the Royal Scottish National Orchestra has announced that Lithuanian conductor Giedrė Šlekytė is to be their next music director, succeeding Thomas Søndergård from the 2027 season. The appointment comes after just two projects: a well-received week of Mahler's First Symphony, and a subsequent recording session. As the RSNO's chief executive Alistair Mackie said: "When she joined us last year, her musical ideas and the way she works with players spoke for themselves. Giedrė gives the orchestra room to breathe and to play."

Iga Swiatek's Dominant Performance Iga Swiatek gave another indication that she might be back to her brilliant best after destroying Jessica Pegula 6-1, 6-2 on Wednesday and breezing into the Italian Open semi-finals. The Match Details A three-time champion in Rome, Swiatek took little more than an hour to take care of fifth seed Pegula on centre court, in a show of force on her preferred surface not seen since she last won the French Open two years ago. Upcoming Matches and Potential Opponents Swiatek has set up a clash with either second seed Elena Rybakina or Elina Svitolina in the last four. A potential decider with reigning Roland Garros champion Coco Gauff awaits for the winner of that last-four match-up in Saturday’s final. Emma Raducanu's Comeback Meanwhile, Emma Raducanu will make her comeback from illness at the Internationaux de Strasbourg next week. The British No 1 has not played a tournament since Indian Wells in March because of a post-viral illness after she first fell unwell in February, pulling out of four successive events. Road to the French Open Raducanu travelled to Rome and practised ahead of the current Italian Open but ultimately decided she was not quite ready to return. Taking a wild card into Strasbourg means the 23-year-old will gain valuable time on the clay ahead of the French Open, which begins on May 24.

Oswestry Cricket Club’s thriving Women and Girls (WaGs) programme has reached a milestone: ten mother‑daughter pairs are now playing competitive cricket together, contributing to a squad of 33 women and girls who have won the Shropshire hard‑ball league in 2024 and 2025.The Mother‑Daughter Phenomenon at Oswestry Cricket ClubFounded in 2018 by Naomi Payne, the WaGs section grew from a six‑person softball event to a full‑time hard‑ball and soft‑ball team. Jools Payne, the club’s manager and a founding player, describes the atmosphere as “a hoot on the field” while maintaining a competitive edge. Coaching is provided by her husband, former Surrey and Gloucestershire all‑rounder Ian Payne, who brings professional expertise to the grassroots setting.Participation Stats: 33 Players, 10 Mother‑Daughter Duos33 registered women and girls across hard‑ball and soft‑ball formats.10 mother‑daughter pairs ranging in age from 12 to 67.Two‑thirds of the junior players come from the state school sector.Back‑to‑back champions of the top Shropshire recreational hard‑ball league (2024, 2025).Boosting Female Cricket in Shropshire and BeyondThe club’s inclusive approach tackles the national drop‑off in teenage girls’ sport participation highlighted by a 2022 Women in Sport survey. By encouraging mothers to play and creating a nurturing, female‑only training night, the programme fosters confidence, teamwork and long‑term engagement. The group also participates in wider cricket culture, attending England women’s matches and hosting events around the Women’s T20 World Cup.Looking Ahead: Record‑Seeking Goals and Youth PathwaysWith aspirations to enter the Guinness Book of Records for mother‑daughter participation, the WaGs are planning an under‑12 side and a clearer pathway to senior cricket. Upcoming events include a softball festival on 5 July and a viewing party for the T20 World Cup final, reinforcing community bonds while promoting the sport to the next generation.

The Lead: Carla Simón's Unique Approach to Family DramaFamily reunions in European arthouse cinema are almost always unhappy events, on a scale of strife that ranges from simmering resentment to spectacular score-settling. Carla Simón, however, has a rare gift: she makes you leave the cinema with renewed faith that having relatives and keeping in touch with them may actually be a wonderful thing.No film-maker working in Europe now is as capable of turning birthday gatherings, garden parties or poolside barbecues into thrillingly sprawling canvases of human virtue and vice as this 39-year-old rising star. From a riotous water fight in the Berlinale Golden Bear-winning farming drama Alcarràs to a foul-mouthed dinner table singalong in her new film Romería, Simón directs kinship meetings with the attention to detail that other film-makers may invest in action sequences or dance routines.The Event Details: Romería and the Journey to Self-DiscoveryAmong the tricks Simón employs, she explains, is to ensure her actors only read the script once before the camera starts rolling, so they have to improvise to fill the gaps. She takes her casts to parties, for walks and on shopping trips, and if there are disagreements on the way, so much the better. The ultimate secret sauce, though, is to ignore WC Fields's notorious advice and always work with children and animals."I never get bored of working with kids," she says. "When you are only working with adult actors, shooting becomes more like executing an idea that you have in your mind, and I think that is not interesting. With children, you always have this feeling that that things are going to happen in front of the camera by chance. It keeps things alive."Her new film Romería, meaning "pilgrimage" in Spanish, dives deeper into the story of the biological parents she barely got to know. Eighteen-year-old Marina travels to her relatives in Vigo, in north-western Galicia, purportedly to find the death certificate of her biological father, which she needs to study film-making in Barcelona. The initial reaction is warm, but family is a room with dark corners and locked closets.The Personal Journey: Aids, Loss and Family SecretsSimón's fascination with freewheeling scenes of family life was undoubtedly honed through her own biography. Born in Barcelona in 1986, her father died when she was three and her mother when she was six. Both of them succumbed to Aids. She was 12 when her adoptive mother told her that her parents had been infected with the autoimmune disease through their use of drugs.All of her first three films have been strongly autobiographical: Summer 1993 tells the story of a six-year-old girl who moves to an unspecified location countryside to live with her aunt after the death of her mother, while 2022's Alcarràs is specifically set in the Catalan peach-growing community of her adoptive family.In the film, a cache of letters written by her late mother opens up a portal to the time when her parents met and discovered love – for each other, the Atlantic Ocean and drugs. The letters, Simón explains, are real. "She wrote to her friends and family while she lived in Vigo. Her Catalan is full of mistakes, because teaching Catalan was banned under the Franco regime. But they are the most important thing that I have from my mother, because suddenly I can hear her talking."The Impact Analysis: Spanish Cinema and the Legacy of AidsSpanish cinema has a track record in making films where child actors take centre stage: Ana Torrent's spell-binding turn as a young girl obsessed with the Frankenstein tale in Víctor Erice's 1973 film The Spirit of the Beehive is considered an all-time great performance by a minor, and Simón describes it as "a very, very important film for me".During the transition period after Franco's rule, Madrid gave birth to la movida, a countercultural movement that celebrated lifestyles that had been banned under military rule. "All these kids who were raised under Franco and religious oppression, suddenly freedom arrived and they embraced it", Simón says. "They didn't think much about the future or the consequences of what they were experimenting with. And then the drugs came in."When we talk about this generation in Spain, people sometimes use words like shame and blame, but I feel that's really unfair: people like my parents just had bad luck.The Future Direction: Beyond Family in Simón's Next ProjectHalfway through Romería there is a stylistic shift, from the Eurorealism she favoured in her previous works toward something more magical-realist: there is a mysterious cat you might expect to encounter in a Miyazaki film, and an unforgettable dance number set to Vigo punk rocker's Siniestro Total's song Bailaré Sobre Tu Tumba ("I'll Dance on Your Grave")."These three films I've made are kind of a cycle, because they all talk about my family, adoptive and biological. But since I became a mother a few years ago, I feel that my place in the family changed. When you have kids you feel it's a new period in your life, so I feel like maybe doing something that has nothing to do with my family."Her next film, she confides, is going to be a flamenco musical.

Ujiri’s Appointment Signals a New Era for the MavericksMasai Ujiri was introduced last week as the Dallas Mavericks’ president of basketball operations and alternate governor, a move the franchise touts as “a match made in heaven.” The hire places the first African to run a major U.S. sports franchise at the helm of a team owned by the ultraconservative billionaire Miriam Adelson.Background: From Raptors Champion to Dallas’ President of Basketball OperationsUjiri’s résumé includes:2003: Co‑founded Giants of Africa while scouting unpaid.2010: Became the first African general manager of an NBA team (Denver Nuggets).2013: Won NBA Executive of the Year.2018: Traded for Kawhi Leonard, leading the Toronto Raptors to their first championship.2026: Hired by the Mavericks after the Luka Dončić trade saga.Financial Stakes: Draft Picks, Revenue Loss, and Ownership WealthThe Mavericks hold the No. 1 pick in the 2025 draft and selected Rookie of the Year Cooper Flagg, plus the 9th, 30th and 48th picks.The 2023 sale of the team to Adelson was valued at $3.5 billion, a fraction of her estimated $35 billion net worth.Analysts estimate the Luka Dončić trade cost the franchise roughly $100 million in revenue.Adelson has contributed more than $100 million to Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign.Culture Clash: Liberal Advocacy vs. Ultraconservative OwnershipUjiri’s public record includes outspoken support for social justice, anti‑racism initiatives, and humanitarian work across Africa. In contrast, Adelson has labeled pro‑Palestinian and Black Lives Matter activists as “enemies” and is known for her right‑wing political donations. The Mavericks’ fan base leans Democratic, creating a potential flashpoint between the franchise’s new leadership and its owner.Outlook: How Ujiri Could Navigate Politics and Rebuild a FranchiseUjiri faces three immediate challenges:Transforming a roster that missed the playoffs despite a top draft pick.Balancing his advocacy with Adelson’s political stance without alienating either side.Restoring fan confidence after the unpopular Luka Dončić trade.If he can replicate the Raptors’ model—leveraging international talent, fostering a community‑first narrative, and using his platform to address broader issues—Ujiri could reposition the Mavericks as both a competitive team and a socially conscious brand. Failure to do so may deepen the cultural rift and jeopardize the franchise’s marketability.

The Lead Lauren Elkin's book 'Vocal Break' is a celebration of the female voice in all its forms and imperfections. Elkin, a London-dwelling French-American translator and author, examines the female voice through the lens of her own musical passions and explores the rules and expectations foisted on female vocalists. The Event Details Elkin's book is not strictly a memoir, but she mines her past as she examines singers and singing. She digs into notions of self-image, coolness, integrity, and authenticity, and ponders the history of the vocoder and the current vogue for Auto-Tune. The Data Analysis No specific data is provided in the article, but Elkin's research takes in Roland Barthes's 'The Grain of the Voice,' Greil Marcus's 'Lipstick Traces,' and Homer's 'Odyssey.' She also shares surprising facts, such as the French phrase for singing along to a song in a language you don't know: 'chanter en yaourt,' or 'to sing in yoghurt.' The Impact Analysis Elkin asserts that women using their voices is 'not a neutral proposition but a hard-won right' and that judgments on their singing are wrapped up in power and identity. She highlights the physical violence women have endured for daring to sing and be themselves on stage, citing examples such as Ari Up and Tori Amos. The Prediction Elkin notes that 'singing is about wanting that thing that is just beyond reach, and that is why we love it, and need it.' She encourages more people to sing, emphasizing that through music, we can get things that are just beyond our reach, or feel like we have, for the time the music lasts.

The Cultural Phenomenon Returns On a chilly morning at a Silvertown studio behind London City airport, the sunburst intro to Jimmy Cliff's The Harder They Come is on repeat. Dancers run through a routine studded with reggae and dancehall moves. "Get high," commands associate choreographer Neisha-yen Jones with a smile. "Get low!" The ensemble rise and dip. They do the bogle and whine around each other as their watchful director Matthew Xia nods along. They circle Natey Jones who breaks out the opening line: "Well, they tell me of a pie up in the sky." In the distance, a plane leaves the ground. From Film to Theatrical Celebration It's eight months since The Harder They Come's full-throttle takeoff at Stratford East, where the musical was so popular that it is now returning for a second run which will also serve as a eulogy for Cliff who died in November. Playwright Suzan-Lori Parks' adaptation of Perry Henzell's 1972 Jamaican film is bolstered by a handful of her own songs as well as classics including Israelites and Wonderful World, Beautiful People – plus every number on the film's monumental soundtrack. Jones is reprising the role of Ivan (played on screen by Cliff and inspired by real-life outlaw Rhyging), who arrives in Kingston from the country and is dismissed and exploited, before becoming both a hit singer and a fugitive. The Evolution of a Cultural Narrative The original was akin to cinéma vérité, directly evoked spaghetti westerns and veered into blaxploitation territory; Ivan's tale has gained greater warmth, humour and protest spirit on stage. It was the best musical I saw in 2025. "The story is a tragedy but the theatrical event is a celebration," says Xia of his production. Twenty years ago, the film was adapted as a musical with a book by Henzell, also at Stratford East. "It all started at Ivan's Nine Night," Xia recalls. "There was a massive poster of Ivan on the wall, with everyone coming, and it was told in retrospect with vignettes." Choreography and Cultural Connection Shelley Maxwell, recently arrived from Jamaica, was watching the musical in the audience one night and has since become the choreographer of the new production. She has fused the folk dance forms of revivalism and pocomania, learned in her childhood, with reggae, dancehall and moves that today's teenagers can recognise. "I wanted to tap into the youth market," she says. It's brought some enthusiastic feedback from audience members who may not know the film. "Like: 'Oh my God, they did that step I always do at a party!' It allows them to form a connection." Authenticity and Cultural Representation Xia, wearing trainers in the Jamaican flag's colours, and Maxwell, whose tracksuit has the same black, green and gold trim, were intent on instantly transporting their audience to Kingston. The opening, says the director, is an "establishing shot" with characters coming and going on Simon Kenny's magnificent multi-level set, accompanied by Toots and the Maytals' hit Funky Kingston. To borrow from its lyrics, you really can believe everything they do. Even each move in the dominoes game we see is scripted, explains Maxwell, who mapped out the market scene with precision: "Where are you going to? How heavy is the item that you're holding? This is the swing of the hips." Social Commentary Through Performance Xia, whose father came to England from Jamaica in the 1970s, praises the freewheeling realism of the film. "Lots of the background performers are just whoever happened to be in the market that day, or walking through the shantytown. Lots of the actors were people that Perry knew, they had no training." Henzell, says Xia, showed "the part of Jamaica that had always been hidden, people living hand to mouth". The musical depicts a "quartet of oppression" against Ivan, as he takes a stand against individuals representing hypocrisies of the church, law, drugs trade and music industry. Universal Themes and Contemporary Relevance The Harder They Come was both a pioneering example of independent film-making for Jamaicans and a portrait of a newly independent country. Maxwell, who grew up glued to Hollywood musicals, says it was empowering to discover a film full of the Jamaican songs she loved. "I was probably way too young when I saw it. But what I saw was the world around me." She traces how different forms of music played a pivotal part in the country establishing its identity, moving from African forms and American R&B; to mento, ska, rocksteady, reggae and the rise of Bob Marley and Jimmy Cliff. Maxwell captures that chain reaction with a tantalizing question: "What's this groove becoming?" Transforming the Narrative for Modern Audiences The musical also makes its hero's actions more understandable. "In the film, Ivan becomes a kind of wanton murderer," says Xia. In the musical, "he accidentally shoots a police officer when he's under threat, is remorseful, yet also knows that if he gives himself in then that's the end of his journey". Another significant change is the depth given to the principal women – Ivan's mother Daisy and Elsa, with whom he falls in love under the eye of her authoritarian guardian, the preacher. "The moral heart of the piece now resides in those two women," says Xia. Maxwell transforms a brief sequence from the film, in which Ivan imagines a tryst with the devout Elsa, into a floor-trembling set piece when the preacher's congregation lose their robes to indulge in lustful fantasy. The male gaze of the original scene is duly excised: "it had to be like it was both of them in partnership in that fantasy world," says Maxwell, who adds that the nature of dancehall – "grinding, gyrating on another body" required her to use her skillset as an intimacy director.

The World's Longest Football DerbyCarlisle and Barrow will play each other next season in the Cumbrian derby in the National League. The clubs are located at opposite ends of Cumbria and the distance between the two grounds is some 78 miles by car. But this is not the greatest distance between two teams involved in a 'derby'.When considering derbies, we are looking for matches between teams that are linked based upon their proximity or geography, rather than simply historical rivalries like the 'clásico' between Real Madrid and Barcelona.UK Derbies: The Cumbrian ContenderWithin the UK, the Cumbrian derby certainly looks the furthest derby by distance. If we are staying in England, the closest we can get to 78 miles is the A49 derby between Shrewsbury Town and Hereford United, separated by 51 miles, although it should be said that the two teams have not met since the latter was dissolved in 2014.In England, thoughts immediately go to Crystal Palace and Brighton, dubbed the M23 derby, but a quick search reveals that Selhurst Park is a mere 46 miles from the Amex Stadium. It is also 46 miles that separate the stadiums of Plymouth Argyle and Exeter City, the Devon derby. Just behind are Ipswich and Norwich – the East Anglian derby (AKA El Tractico or the Old Farm) – with Portman Road and Carrow Road 45 miles apart.International Long-Distance DerbiesFarther afield, we must mention the derby between Persib Bandung and Persija Jakarta, who take part in the Indonesia derby, or Laga Klasikal as it is locally known, with Persib's Gelora Bandung Lautan Api Stadium lying 108 miles away from Persija's Jakarta International Stadium in Indonesia's capital.Italy is fertile ground for a host of famous derbies, and it is here that we find some of the longest-distance derbies. Of course there is the Derby d'Italia between Milan and Juventus, with 85 miles separating San Siro and Juve's Allianz Arena in Italy's north-west. The Derby di Sicilia between Palermo and Catania spans a whopping 134 miles across the breadth of Sicily, while the Derby delle Isole (Derby of the Islands) between Palermo and Sardinian club Cagliari goes even further – a full 250 miles across the Tyrrhenian Sea.The Champion: New Zealand's 386-Mile DerbyOur winner, though, comes from New Zealand's North Island. With Auckland FC only entering the A-League Men in 2024-25, the New Zealand derby between themselves and Wellington Phoenix is still very much in its infancy but has already blossomed into something substantial. In February, just the sixth edition of the derby, a comical own goal from Wellington goalkeeper Josh Oluwayemi sparked a 5-0 thrashing by Auckland, prompting Phoenix coach Giancarlo Italiano to resign immediately after the defeat. With 386 miles between the two grounds, the NZD is our clear winner.The Evolution of Geographic DerbiesThe existence of such long-distance derbies challenges our traditional understanding of what constitutes a local rivalry. In an era where football has become increasingly globalized, these geographic matchups represent unique connections between communities separated by vast distances. The New Zealand derby, in particular, showcases how even in a country with a relatively small population, football can create intense rivalries across significant geographical divides.The Future of Long-Distance DerbiesAs football continues to evolve, we may see more long-distance derbies emerge, particularly in regions with expanding leagues or where new clubs are formed to serve underserved areas. The New Zealand derby between Auckland and Wellington Phoenix is a prime example of how modern football infrastructure and scheduling can create meaningful rivalries regardless of distance. With the increasing popularity of travel and fan engagement, these long-distance derbies may become even more significant in the future of football culture.Double Winners in FootballDeji Elerewe has won the title with both Bromley (League Two) and Lincoln (League One) this season. Has any other player managed the same feat?We covered this answer 10 years ago in a previous Knowledge, but regular contributor Dirk Maas has come in clutch with some additions, although he does clarify that he has limited his search to the top five leagues in Europe in this century.There are several examples of players winning titles with different teams in the same season, including:Jonas Urbig with Köln (2. Bundesliga) and Bayern Munich (Bundesliga) in 2024-25Leigh Griffiths with Celtic (Scottish Premiership) and Wolverhampton (League One) in 2013-14Urby Emanuelson with Ajax and Milan in 2010-11Daniel Amartey with Leicester City and FC Copenhagen in 2015-16Timothy Weah with Paris Saint-Germain and Celtic in 2018-19Khvicha Kvaratskhelia with Napoli and PSG in 2024-25There are also alternative cases where seasons happen at different times of year, such as David Beckham achieving this by picking up an MLS winner's medal with LA Galaxy and a Ligue 1 winner's medal with Paris Saint-Germain in 2012-13.
