  • Music Listening for the Easter Season—Easter VI David Hurd, Mus.D. Organist and Music Director Church of Saint Mary the Virgin, NYC
    Music Listening for the Easter Season—Easter VI David Hurd, Mus.D. Organist and Music Director Church of Saint Mary the Virgin, NYC This is the sixth of a series of articles on music, mostly choral, that we might be hearing in live performances in this season, but cannot, due to the current pandemic in which choirs can neither rehearse nor perform in public worship. We all look forward to a time when we again can gather together to perform and enjoy the performance of music. Until that time comes, however, we do have access to a vast library of recorded musical performances. Much of what we now cannot hear live is available for us to experience as previously performed, and now electronically retrievable. An Episcopal Dictionary of the Church, edited by Don S. Armentrout and Robert Boek Slocum, has the following entry about Rogation Days: Traditionally, these are the three days before Ascension Day on which the litany is sung (or recited) in procession as an act of intercession. They originated in Vienne, France, in the fifth century when Bishop Mamertus introduced days of fasting and prayer to ward off a threatened disaster. In England they were associated with the blessing of the fields at planting. The vicar “beat the bounds” of the parish, processing around the fields reciting psalms and the litany. In the United States they have been associated with rural life and with agriculture and fishing. The propers in the BCP (pp. 207-208, 258-259, 930) have widened their scope to include commerce and industry and the stewardship of creation.

  • Arnold Bax and the Poetry of Tintagel
    ARNOLD BAX AND THE POETRY OF TINTAGEL A Dissertation submitted to the College of Fine Arts of Kent State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by William B. Hannam December, 2008 HANNAM, WILLIAM B., PH.D., DECEMBER, 2008 MUSIC ARNOLD BAX AND THE POETRY OF TINTAGEL (213PP.) Director of Dissertation: Theodore J. Albrecht The latter part of the nineteenth and the early part of the twentieth centuries saw what is commonly accepted as a resurgence in music from the British Isles, but to this day, most of the actual music of this resurgence remains unknown to all but the most knowledgeable of art music aficionados. Among the composers active during this period, one of the most heralded in his day but little recognized now is Sir Arnold Bax (1883 – 1953). To the aforementioned aficionados, he is known for several substantial yet infrequently performed contributions to the symphonic repertoire, among them the tone poem Tintagel. Known in England as a composer, Bax carried on a separate life as a writer of poetry and drama in Ireland, working under the name Dermot O’Byrne. At the time of composition of the tone poem, Bax also wrote a four- stanza verse poem titled “Tintagel Castle.” Both were written for and dedicated to the pianist Harriet Cohen, with whom he was having an affair. The focus of this dissertation is an extensive look at the circumstances surrounding the composition of Tintagel, examining factors of development in Bax’s compositional style, his personal life including the affair with Harriet Cohen, and the influence of Yeats and Irish culture on Bax’s writings as Dermot O’Byrne.
