  • Lyrics and Music
    Soundtrack for a New Jerusalem Lyrics and Music By Lily Meadow Foster and Toliver Myers EDITED by Peter Daniel The 70th Anniversary of the National Health Service 1 Jerusalem 1916 England does not have a national anthem, however unofficially the beautiful Jerusalem hymn is seen as such by many English people. Jerusalem was originally written as a preface poem by William Blake to his work on Milton written in 1804, the lyrics were added to music written by Hubert Parry in 1916 during the gloom of WWI when an uplifting new English hymn was well received and needed. Blake was in- spired by the mythical story Jesus, accompanied by Joseph of Arimathea, once came to England. This developed its major theme that of creating a heaven on earth in En- galnd, a fairer more equal country that would abolish the exploitation of working people that was seen in the ‘dark Satin mills’ of the Industrial revolution. The song was gifted by Hubert Parry to the Suffragette movement who were inspired by this vi- sion of equality. 2 Jerusalem William Blake lyrics Hubert Parry Music 1916 And did those feet in ancient time Walk upon England's mountains green? And was the holy Lamb of God On England's pleasant pastures seen? And did the countenance divine Shine forth upon our clouded hills? And was Jerusalem builded here Among those dark Satanic Mills? Bring me my bow of burning gold! Bring me my arrows of desire! Bring me my spear! O clouds, unfold! Bring me my chariot of fire! I will not cease from mental fight Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand Till we have built Jerusalem In England's green and pleasant Land Hubert Parry 1916 Words by William Blake 1804 3 Jerusalem 1916 4 Jerusalem 1916 5 Jerusalem 1916 William Blake imagined a time when Britain would be a fairer more equal society.

  • Lazarsfeld AJVS Final-Layout
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by The University of Sydney: Sydney eScholarship Journals online The English Warner Brother triumphs over religious hegemony on the road to celebrity and dynasty Ann Lazarsfeld-Jensen In late Victorian England, music halls were often besieged by fanatical Christians who wanted to shut them down. Evangelicals manipulated justifiable public concerns about alcohol abuse to conflate popular entertainment with social erosion. The complex legislation surrounding places of entertainment began in the 1830s with concerns about limelight and sawdust, but by the 1880s it was firmly focused on morality (Victorian Music Halls 63) The music hall wars were an alarming threat for the predominantly Jewish artists and hall managers barely one generation beyond refugee poverty. It was unwise for them to oppose anything rooted in the national religious hegemonies, and they could not find a moral high ground to protect their livelihood. In this context, the fin de siècle Jewish theatrical agent, Dick Warner, began to use networks of men’s clubs and newspaper publicity to redefine the industry. The peaceful assimilation of Jews with its concomitant benefits for the pursuit of profit (Jews of Britain 77-79) was not a cynical ambition. Warner subscribed to the Victorian Anglo-Jewish world view of judicious assimilation and restrained observance, and he embraced it as the way forward for theatrical entrepreneurs who were losing ground to what Kift refers to as the “sour-faced, austere and ascetic” social reformers (157). The themes of Warner’s publicity campaign are recognisable today.

However, it is also a city well-served by open spaces. There are numerous small parks which provide relief retreat from city life, while areas such as Richmond Park and Riverside, Hyde Park, Hampstead Heath, Epping Forest and Wimbledon Common are real recreational treasures. Although not so obviously popular, many of our cemeteries and churchyards provide a much overlooked such amenity. Many of those established in Victorian times were designed to be used as places of recreation by the public as well as places of burial. Many are still in use and remain beautiful and interesting places for quiet walks. Some, on ceasing active use for burials, have been developed as wildlife sanctuaries and community parks. As is the case with parklands, there are some especially splendid cemeteries in the capital which stand out from the rest. I would personally recommend the City of London, Islington and St.

  • Hoxton B5 Book
    Extracts from interviews with Hoxton residents edited by Lisa Goldman · photographs by Leo Asemota Introduction by Lisa Goldman, Artistic Director of the Red Room Heritage is something of value which we want to preserve for future generations. But heritage is also a contested concept, based as it is on evolving values which are themselves subject to different - conflicting - needs and interests. As I sit here editing the interviews that make up this booklet, Channel 4’s ‘Time Team’ is digging trenches in Shoreditch Park in order to excavate artefacts relating to pre-war history. Elderly local residents are being asked about their knowledge of, and connection to, the unearthed treasures. Meanwhile, a few hundred yards away, on Pitfield Street, a lovely Victorian school - once home to a very popular youth inclusion project - is being bulldozed, without ceremony or cameras. Local residents I spoke to were upset about the demolition, maintaining, (rightly or wrongly) that there was no consultation. Almost exactly a year ago I walked around the building. It was a boy’s school until the 1950s and after that accommodated all sorts of community activities. Even as we started work on ‘Hoxton Story’, 168 Pitfield Street had already been sold and contained its first luxury show flat. The youth inclusion project – called the Crib - was living on borrowed time. The Crib provided a safe haven for local teenagers, of which up to 500 were regularly involved, drawn from rival ‘territories’ in the area. It was clear from talking to the young people, that the Crib was making a real difference to their lives and prospects.

  • Introduction
    Notes Introduction 1 Keith Summers Collection C1002/71. 2 An example of this very different performance style can be heard in the Roger Wagner Chorale’s version of ‘Rio Grande’, with its key shifts and final Broadway-style flourish on the word ‘Rio!’ (pronounced ‘Ree-oh’). 3 As Frederick R. Karl and Laurence Davies note, Conrad is conflating two songs: ‘The Banks of Sacramento’ and the capstan shanty ‘Santa Anna’ or ‘The Plains of Mexico’ (CL 4: 352n). In 1915, Conrad declined an invitation to collaborate with the British composer Granville Bantock, pleading damaged vocal chords. The details of Bantock’s proposal are not known but since he had recently begun collecting and scoring folk songs from around the world, he could well have approached Conrad about using sea-shanties in an opera or song-cycle. I am grateful to Mr Ronald Bleach for supplying biographical information about Bantock. 4 See Hawthorn, 2003. 5 I am indebted to Mr Gavin Sprott for this information. 6 Times Literary Supplement, 3565 (25 June 1970): 673.
