John Wilhelm

Escape from the Museum

“My profession is IT, my passion is photography.”

Photography was always important in my life. My father was an experienced hobby-photographer and founded at least two local photography-associations. So I grew up in an environment of cameras, magazines, lenses, self made camera-bags, darkrooms and funny weddings.

I wasn’t very excited back then about those films and development processes. It was such a lot of fiddling in my eyes.

The importance of photography changed into joy when I held my first digital cam in my hands. The fire was sparked off and a long journey began, a journey through lots of camera systems, techniques, experiences and finally software products. February 2011, I decided to take a step across the border of plain photography. I entered the world of Photoshop. That was the best thing I ever did… now photography is a complete passion!

‘I love bringing my fantasy to life with the help of my own images, Photoshop and 3D Software. Due to the fact that it’s more an obsession than plain pas

World War II on Deadline

Around 11:30 a.m. on June 6, 1994, John Wilhelm was scheduled to do an interview with CBS radio about his experiences as a war correspondent covering the D-Day landings in Normandy a half century earlier.

Wilhelm, 78, hadn’t been feeling well in recent weeks but was looking forward to the 50th anniversary of one of the defining moments in his life. Unfortunately, he didn’t get to share his story with an audience one last time, dying around 6:45 a.m. that day at his home in Maryland.

Wilhelm was born March 5, 1916, in Billings, Montana. He attended the University of Minnesota and began his journalism career at Chicago’s famed City News Bureau. He eventually hooked on with Reuters and covered the months-long fight to liberate Europe for the London-based news agency.

He was assigned to Omaha Beach on D-Day but his work never made it into print. Wilhelm lost his portable typewriter in the surf and eventually wrote out a dispatch by hand. He described the scene in a June 30 letter to his sister, Ruth, which was excerpted in a 2010 story in the Jeff

Johann Wilhelm Wilms

Dutch-German composer (1772–1847)

Johann Wilhelm Wilms (March 30, 1772 (baptized) – July 19, 1847) was a Dutch-German composer, best known for setting the poem Wien Neêrlands Bloed to music,^[1] which served as the Dutch national anthem from 1817 to 1932.

Biography

Wilms was born in Witzhelden, a small town near Solingen. After receiving lessons from his father and oldest brother in piano and composition, Wilms studied flute on his own. He moved to Amsterdam in 1791 where he played the flute in two orchestras and was soloist in Mozart and Beethovenpianoconcertos, giving them their Dutch premieres. Here, he also received further instruction in musical theory from the Saxony-born composer Georg Casper Hodermann (1740-1802).

Around 1793, his first composition was published, a sonata for keyboard (harpsichord or possibly fortepiano), which is lost. Three years later, Wilms was one of the six founders of the society Eruditio Musica, which organised concerts at which he was active as pianist and composer.

He taught piano at the Koni
