he is a rising star in the music world. and living with the blues the family home in lithuania designed for listening enjoyment. one of the most popular toys of all time are lego building bricks now their story dates back to denmark in the nine hundred thirty s. and since then lego has grown into an empire consisting of museums and even a theme park now lego land in denmark is now celebrating its fiftieth anniversary so we met up with a long time lego land employee to see how these small bricks have inspired big ideas. that is willed to. those the wild animals on the signs. this isn't going into infested with pirates. all eight of the little plastic bricks

it's very nice this very nostalgic. feeling it's because it's been my own childhood in little and and now my son loves it too so it's very nice to make a wish are everything in a child's world i mean something different when i was a child i was only a small train from joe on so a lot of things happen lego is a big thing in denmark and we're quite proud of the brain and i want to show my kids the lego history and the fantasy. at this hour of the morning a lot of this analysis and is all alone in lego land. she and four coworkers keep this miniature world in shape. she makes sure everything's in its place in the replica of norway's delta and. minor repairs are taken care of right away on site. there's

a special method for restoring faded bricks. where with me take a car like this this one is probably like ten or twelve years old so i will take this car to the last master machine and we'll blast past it. and it looks awful when we've done that because the surface is getting very rough and after that we send it to the carpenter and he will paint it with a clear u.v. . paint and it when it's painted just looks like just like a new car. it isn't long before the silence was broken giants invade the little world the village of liviu debuted as the first exhibit when the park opened in the one nine hundred sixty eight. libby translates as little village and it looks like many a small danish community would have a century ago. when not to make surrounds of the park during the day cheerfully stops to chat with visitors this one. and she has quite

a lot what are you doing in the wintertime so what we do is that we we empty all the walls with bring out all the ships and the trains the cars the people all the houses thing outside by getting things we take them to the storage and we clean it all up and then we take the things to do the most up and repair it if it gets broken. the blocks nearest attraction is in the western town of lego rito the flying eagle. it's the first season for the road a coaster. the wild west in town is one of the park's most populous sections. close by is chief long is village for thirty four years has been welcoming children the around his campfire why do they like his so much when it seemingly has nothing to do with logo their legal brakes it matches everything even in. your view

be tried if you look at my g.p. the entrenched relate of bones made of legal. term is made available a good show and the children like to see the like they like the idea of india and playing india. an american indian kemp was at the opening in one nine hundred sixty eight. so too was a safari. generations of children have taken courses at the driving school. is has been living in his teepee since the mid nine hundred eighty s. to the delight of the kids that come his way. i think it's the xperia and it's the same the cheated on loves and it's the same as such a years ago. when jaago came to lego land in twenty sixteen years you can slip into

the skin of an inch on the most important cost of this reading glasses as he caused by not screenings fighting begins with lightning fast moves it's not the only interactive attraction on the bricks no longer enough by themselves i think when the new technologies that are interesting to children it's good for us to try to take advantage of them also in the experiences that we did level so i think the brick will always be called baby land where we're standing now will always be the heart of lego man but then we try to develop with new technologies and new types of rights all the time as well you know most of what crazy rise may come for real lego friends miniland will always be reason enough to visit the dome. well another work of art of sorts the royal academy in london is also celebrating a major anniversary with a special exhibition that plus and other parts of the u.k.

a conductor loren so he's only twenty eight years old but already we're now in orchestras are vying for his conducting skills has been named music director of the gold bank in orchestra in lisbon for next season but before he starts there we caught up with him during a rehearsal in zero. couldn't try to vueling me via team. who does this to me when we did both in fact to all. her sing rock monograph second symphony with the munich philharmonic orchestra. laurence of your team believes a conductor needs to activate something within the musicians. rather than an organisation the challenge lies in radiating energy and a rousing emotions. you can't learn it and you have to be able to stand in front of

a hundred people who don't know and say this is my place and that's as old as he's my but not because you're the boss but because you can say follow me far can see here. we go there together. twenty eight year old the rents of the uk he is from switzerland his mother is a violinist his father was the renowned conductor much of yachting. we catch up with him in zurich between opera her souls this autumn he'll move to lisbon where he'll head the goal banki an orchestra. the orchestra said it chose him because he strives to make each concert a unique experience. it's his first position as musical director. here in zurich he's working with world class tenors. you know he was only a child when he discovered the power of opera. should be

nourished and i can't remember exactly where it was but the opera was simone book a negra carlo the villain dies on stage i remember the opera singer was very tall and had a bald head. afterwards i was backstage with my dad and suddenly there he was again i started to cry i couldn't believe it he was back from the dead. that was my first shock in the world of theater vent yeah to. leap. from his feet just for me it's much more important to dive in deep and to conduct in lots of places and the mainstream you know it makes me sad when i don't have time to work with an orchestra strings or when the singers come and go because they've got engaged elsewhere because it makes me sad you go. by as you can tell some

people can spread themselves thin like that but i don't know how much can and. how far are we prepared to go in view this could be our last evening on stage and really. when lorenzo was fourteen his father marcelo collapsed during a rehearsal and died a short time later him and wished i couldn't human so knows time is precious and as again you have declined that sounded brilliant so now with confidence but also keep the quality of shall i or shall i not at fifty three on the first beat of the i could just.

bring it back a bit. since boost self confidence is often misunderstood. vice i know where i am. and what i can't yet do but i also know what i can do with this can't get. the interview appears to have a brilliant future ahead of him critics describe him as a talent to watch and inspiration one who makes time stand still. is crescendo is only just beginning his love of music and people and his zest for life are infectious. to peace with i got too much sun i was in lisbon last week and it was thirty degrees so what could i do. and for you so i would surfing but didn't have

any sun cream and got burned. for lorenzo. just. time now for a sneak peek into someone's house full of bode and for that we are headed to lithuania where the owners are huge of blues fans so much so that they've built a house in the woods show so they can play their music as loudly as they want but that's not all the entire structure has been designed to optimize the acoustics of the music so visitors with sensitive hearing would be well advised to bring along earplugs when visiting the callon ouse. its natural surroundings remain untouched a modern home nestled in a little way in pine forest. that was built as

a tribute to the blues. hello i'm either just my way from going to the west to meet you a little come to my blues clubs. fighters come and ask us an architect has lived here with his family since two thousand and fourteen the woods aren't far away from the city of quantised but far enough to blast the blues as loud as they want anytime they want it's a house full of passion. goes the wrong one fish because for the blues romance i'm taking it easy this isn't just my lives music little by little my wife has grown accustomed to listening to the blues every day i've taught her about it it's very important to us a little bit more so share my. that's apparent throughout the one hundred seventy square meter house its design is inspired by the music genre even the kitchen island is embellish with old vinyl records.

the center of the house is an open living area spread across several floors. and put in until now more this is the center the heart of the home. it's the room where we hang out together. and we listen to music watch t.v. . or work in the op an area. they both broke but it was designed for good acoustics. that's what the acoustic ceiling construction and paneling a form. of question asked by nellis. the sound is as clear as it would be in a concert hall the integrated sound panels roundoff the aesthetics and ensure optimal . styx without interference. true to the open plan design music accompanies every family member as they go about their business. including when their son ignace

visits. the musical atmosphere is controlled from a single sound station. so there is this some troll music station where we can choose which roam we want music to play and by pressing one or the other button we can turn on and off the music and sound. in a terrace or in the living room. speakers are integrated in groups throughout the house. so the bathroom and bedroom for example are single unit acoustically speaking. the dinner. we spend most of the day with music that's no exception in this room as you can see we have speakers and music equipment. we end the day with music of course with something slightly more relaxing. but music sends us off to sleep.

the family spent many years in the city but they were looking for a place where they could relax and tranquility and listen to the blues undisturbed . once they found the len the main question was how do you create a house that fits into its natural surroundings and differs from the building style typical of the area but also pay homage to the blues. i've always listened to the blues even before the house was built had come here regularly and the sound from the car radio felt really special here we go blues the combination of birdsong and the blues fit really well together. then we took a family vacation by the sea listening to lots of blues music and suddenly the idea came to me so i joined outline of the house in the sound. their son

ignace is also an architect. he and his father drew plans on the computer before creating a three d. model. this kitchen island that swings out to the terrace was a distance idea it bridges the homes interior with the exteriors which is also connected to music. it's a place where where you connect. with nature and the building itself and our architectural philosophy we thought about this a lot about this emotional connection between people and buildings and this is the place for me where i really can serve and the marriage with the with the surroundings with her natural materials with music playing from the house and the birds singing at the same time. there's really authentic music. every night in the forest near columbus they're singing the blues inside and out.
