  • The Leaflet Made a Trip Across to Rosedale (Bateman’S Bay) to See Anne Coutts
    T HE L EAFLET --- April 2018 Other news Whilst visiting Canberra in January, Jenny and Wallace Young The Leaflet made a trip across to Rosedale (Bateman’s Bay) to see Anne Coutts. Her late husband, Laurence, was Assistant Minister at No. 1069 Scots’ Church from 1994-96, and many members have fond April 2018 memories of their time amongst us. Late last year Anne had major surgery, but is well on the way to recovery, and sends her greetings to all. Anne Coutts with her rescue dog Charlie William Mackie, grandson of Gordon and Lois Taylor, has recently completed a major project for his Australian Scout Medallion (pictured). William will travel to Sydney in August for the presentation of the award, the highest in Scouting. Well done William! William Mackie with his Australian Scout Medallion project Welcome back to all those who have had holidays in Australia or further afield in recent weeks. As each edition of The Leaflet goes to print we are aware that some of our members are suffering from illness, both in their immediate families or amongst close friends. If you are unable to be with us rest assured that all members of the Scots’ Church family are held in our prayers, and we are just a phone call away if we can help.

  • 'Musical Pitch Ought to Be One from Pole to Pole': Touring Musicians and the Issue of Performing Pitch in Late Nineteenth
    2011 © Simon Purtell, Context 35/36 (2010/2011): 111–25. ‘Musical Pitch ought to be One from Pole to Pole’: Touring Musicians and the Issue of Performing Pitch in Late Nineteenth- and Early Twentieth-century Melbourne Simon Purtell In 1869, English vocal teacher Charles Bishenden complained that the high performing pitch in use in England was ‘ruinous to the voice.’ The high pitch, he reported, was the very reason why many European singers did not perform in Britain.1 ‘For a Continental larynx,’ French soprano Blanche Marchesi (1863–1940) later explained, ‘it is a real torture to sing to different pitches.’ ‘The muscles of a trained larynx act like fine clockwork,’ she wrote, and ‘a change of tone, up or down, alters the precision of their action.’ For this reason, Marchesi believed that ‘musical pitch ought to be one from pole to pole.’2 A standard of performing pitch comprises three fundamental concepts: sound frequency, note-name, and standard. A sound frequency, expressed in Hertz (Hz) or cycles per second (cps), becomes a pitch when assigned to a note in the musical scale, thus determining the pitch of every other note in a particular system of tuning. If, in equal temperament, the A directly above middle C equals 440 Hz, then the C directly above it equals 523.25 Hz. A pitch that is agreed upon, at a given time and place, as the reference point for building and tuning musical instruments to play together, is a pitch standard. Standards of pitch are usually expressed in relation to the note A directly above middle C.

Collectively known as the Australian Convict Sites these places tell the story of the colonisation of Australia and the building of a nation. Fremantle Prison is Western Australia’s most important historical site. As a World Heritage Site, Fremantle Prison is recognised as having the same level of cultural significance as other iconic sites such as the Pyramids of Egypt, the Great Wall of China, or the Historic Centre of Rome. For 136 years between 1855 and 1991 Fremantle Prison was continuously occupied by prisoners. Convicts built the Prison between 1851 and 1859. Initially called the Convict Establishment, Fremantle Prison held male prisoners of the British Government transported to Western Australia. After 1886 Fremantle Prison became the colony’s main place of incarceration for men, women and juveniles. Fremantle Prison itself was finally decommissioned in November 1991 when its male prisoners were transferred to the new maximum security prison at Casuarina. Fremantle Prison was a brutal place of violent punishments such as floggings and hangings.

  • J.E. Dodd 1901
    J. E. DODD ­ A ROMANTIC ORGANBUILDER by Bruce Naylor Contents Life and work Representative organs List of contracts References This article is based upon a talk given at the 0HTA Conference in Adelaide on 30 August, 1980. Josiah Eustace Dodd, organbuilder, was born in Richmond, Melbourne in 1856, died aged 95 years in 1952 and is buried in St Jude's Brighton Cemetery, South Australia. His mother was Irish, his father a Londoner and he married a Scottish wife (1). At the age of 13 he became an apprentice with the firm of Fincham at the princely sum of 2/6 per week (2). It was a great firm and Dodd with his ability and perseverance became a very good tradesman, so much so that when the firm set up here in Adelaide in 1881, Dodd came as co­manager and took over full control in 1888 (3). Both Dodd boys became organbuilders, Eustace and Ebenezer (known as Eb for short) and became part of the firm when Dodd bought out Fincham in 1894. The goodwill was £1,200 and this included the plant and an assurance that Fincham & Hobday would not accept any work in South Australia for 10 years (4). The new firm quickly changed the policies of Fincham & Hobday. Dodd had a flair for publicity. William Sanders was the organist of Clayton Congregational Church, Norwood, and gave the opening recital there in October, 1897; he edited a paper called Music from 1896 to 1900 and it carried a monthly report of what went on in the factory.

  • George Fincham's Tonal Palette: Some Thoughts on Tonal Design
    George Fincham's tonal palette: some thoughts on tonal design John Maidment EXTRACT FROM OHTA JOURNAL JULY 1995, pp.12­17. Based on a paper delivered at the XVIIth Annual Conference of the Organ Historical Trust of Australia on 28 September 1994 at Christ Church, Warrnambool, Vic. George Fincham, who was born in London in 1828, was apprenticed to Henry Bevington, organbuilder, of 48 Greek Street, Soho, on 1 May 1843, at the age of 14­1/2 years. This apprenticeship ran for a term of seven years, after which Fincham worked briefly as a foreman with James Bishop, another distinguished London organbuilder, before departing for Australia in 1852. Both Bevington and Bishop were conservatively minded organbuilders and the range of stops in their instruments differed minimally from those built in the previous century, apart from the introduction of the Clarabella and improved manual and pedal compasses. There was not the sense of innovation to be found in the work of William Hill (based upon continental precedents) or, slightly later, Henry Willis. Fincham would have doubtless visited the Great Exhibition of 1851, as a young man, and inspected the wide range of organs exhibited. The instruments by the continental builders Schulze, from Germany, and Ducroquet, from France, created a profound impression (and lasting influence) but it cannot be established that Fincham's organbuilding style was in any way affected by what he had seen and heard. When Fincham began building organs in Melbourne in 1862, his tonal vocabulary was limited to the type of stops he would have been familiar with in the organs built by Bevington and Bishop.

  • Women in Colonial Commerce 1817-1820: the Window of Understanding Provided by the Bank of New South Wales Ledger and Minute Books
    WOMEN IN COLONIAL COMMERCE 1817-1820: THE WINDOW OF UNDERSTANDING PROVIDED BY THE BANK OF NEW SOUTH WALES LEDGER AND MINUTE BOOKS Leanne Johns A thesis presented for the degree of Master of Philosophy at the Australian National University, Canberra August 2001 DECLARATION I certify that this thesis is my own work. To the best of my knowledge and belief it does not contain any material previously published or written by another person where due reference is not made in the text. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I acknowledge a huge debt of gratitude to my principal supervisor, Professor Russell Craig, for his inspiration and encouragement throughout the writing of this thesis. He gave insightful and expert advice, reassurance when I needed it most, and above all, never lost faith in me. Few supervisors can have been so generous with their time and so unfailing in their support. I also thank sincerely Professor Simon Ville and Dr. Sarah Jenkins for their measured and sage advice. It always came at the right point in the thesis and often helped me through a difficult patch. Westpac Historical Services archivists were extremely positive and supportive of my task. I am grateful to them for the assistance they so generously gave and for allowing me to peruse and handle their priceless treasures. This thesis would not have been possible without their cooperation. To my family, who were ever enthusiastic about my project and who always encouraged and championed me, I offer my thanks and my love. Finally, this thesis is dedicated to the thousands of colonial women who endured privations, sufferings and loneliness with indomitable courage.

  • 'I'll Tell My Mother': Dorothy Hewett And
    ‘I’ll Tell My Mother’: Dorothy Hewett and Literary Feminism after #Metoo Dorothy Green Lecture, July 2020 NICOLE MOORE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES I start by acknowledging and offering my thanks to the Ngunnawal people, on whose land I live and work. Their generosity seeks to keep those of us who live in the ‘Canberra bubble’ safe and educated about the land we occupy. I pay tribute to Elders past, present and emerging, and also to any First Nations people present for the initial online video delivery of this essay, in July 2020, including members of the Association for the Study of Australian Literature. When my colleague Paul Eggert retired from the University of New South Wales in Canberra, he passed on a portrait of the writer and critic Dorothy Auchterlonie Green that now hangs on my office wall. Paul was briefly a colleague of hers in the English discipline here and she is now a ghostly colleague of mine. In formulating this lecture in her name, I thought of her while we fight the same fights she fought—about the worth of literature and the humanities in contemporary education, now under multiform threat; about the uses of Australian literature, identified as such, in thinking and as thinking about the world. I thought about her involvement in the Vietnam moratorium marches and anti-nuclear protest, including protests at the Australian War Memorial against Australian involvement in what was argued to be Cold War aggression in South East Asia and even an imperial war. Anti-war protests, as well as protests calling for the inclusion of the Frontier Wars in AWM and ANZAC memorialisation, are now no longer allowed on any sites close to that institution.
