  • Marquetry on Drawer-Model Marionette Duo-Art
    Marquetry on Drawer-Model Marionette Duo-Art This piano began life as a brown Recordo. The sound board was re-engineered, as the original ribs tapered so soon that the bass bridges pushed through. The strings were the wrong weight, and were re-scaled using computer technology. Six more wound-strings were added, and the weights of the steel strings were changed. A 14-inch Duo-Art pump, a fan-expression system, and an expression-valve-size Duo-Art stack with a soft-pedal compensation lift were all built for it. The Marquetry on the side of the piano was inspired by the pictures on the Arto-Roll boxes. The fallboard was inspired by a picture on the Rhythmodic roll box. A new bench was built, modeled after the bench originally available, but veneered to go with the rest of the piano.

  • Michael Jones – 'Some Forgotten Anniversaries of 2019: Sir Henry (Walford) Davies and Arthur Hinton'
    MICHAEL JONES - ESSAY - Some Forgotten Anniversaries of 2019: Sir Henry (Walford) Davies and Arthur Hinton Michael Jones Independent 2019 marks the 150th anniversary of the birth of two composers who were exact contemporaries. During their lifetimes, one was a major establishment figure, though today they are names unfamiliar to the mainstream establishment. Both completed two symphonies during the 1890s - other orchestral works include pieces for piano and orchestra, operettas and chamber music (including a Piano Quintet, a Piano Trio, violin sonatas, and songs). Both wrote comfortably in the Romantic style of the late nineteenth- and early twentieth centuries, which, however, made them vulnerable to the major stylistic changes which took place more rapidly after World War One. Hinton - in particular – fell into relative obscurity at this time. In contrast, Davies occupied a place in the establishment: his appointments include being Master of the King's Music from 1934 till 1941, Director of Music at the Temple Church and St George's Chapel, Windsor, the first Professor of Music at the University of Wales, and the leading pioneer in music education broadcasting during the 1920s and '30s. In this overview I wish to present brief biographical sketches, together with annotated work lists of both composers in order to attempt to convey a picture of the musical environment of their time and their places within it. Henry (Walford) Davies was born in Oswestry, Shropshire (on the edge of Wales) on 6 September 1869 into a musical family.1 In
