029I-HMVNX1915X07-0000A0.Pdf Orchestral THE NEW SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA (conducted by LANDON RONALD) 12-inch record 5s. 6d. 0842 Herodiade (a) Les Egyptiennes (b) Les Babyloniennes Massenet present record THI.should be deemed the companion of Nos. 0843 and 0844 (" Les Phceni- ciennes " and "Les Gaul- oises ") issued during the last few months. The three records give the music-lover a colour-full picture of the Babylonian splendour of the times of Herod, King of Galilee. It may he remembered that Massenet's opera was produced in London in 1904-but under the title of Salome: the locale, moreover, changed from the Holy Land to Ethiopia, by the British censor's orders ! The records we have made of Herodiade are both of the ballet music that opens Act II. in the opera. King Herod lies on his luxurious couch, the while attendants sing to him. He can think of no one but Salome, and bids the slaves dance to distract his mind. First, the Egyptian women: their posing and pirouetting are vividly suggested by the richness of melody, in the minor mode, which distinguishes the first part of the record. There is the characteristic Oriental flow of wood-wind, backed tip by semi-muffled brass. On an undetermined chord is a pause, announc- ing the more spirited Babylonian dancing women, whose gyrations are more voluptuous and unre- strained, the record tells us. There is a fascination of Eastern idiom in the harmonies as brought out by the skilled combina- tion under their distinguished conductor, Landon Ronald. The record is no less pleasing than the rest of the famous series now standing to the credit of the New Symphony Orchestra. Landon Ronald and his orchestra (in collabora- tion with Thomas Beecham) have recently inaugu- rated a notable series of Promenade Concerts at the Albert Hall. The enthusiastic thousands who attend should taste again the orchestral joys by having N.S.O. records of their favourite master- pieces at home. On pages 77-80 of the complete " His Master's Voice " catalogue are given records embracing almost the full repertoire of this famous orchestra. Egmont Overture, Finlandia Symphonic Poem, Peer Gynt Suite, Schubert's Unfinished Sym- phony, Grieg's Pianoforte Concerto-all these inspiring works, beloved to every heart and ear, are available among the three-score records. (Speed 78) Mr. JOHN COATES (tenor) (with pianoforte accompaniment) xo-inch record 3s. 6d. HE whole king- dom-nay, the T whole musical world-will hail with delight the appear- ance of the celebrated tenor, John Coates. This artist's fame extends o'er wide domains, for of late years he has toured extensively in other lands. Everywhere he has been acclaimed as a tenor of the first flight. His operatic work has been of great importance. Few English artists have the versa- tility to sing in opera as easily as in concert work. Coates is an artist of unbounded talent. His record for July is Brewer's dainty "Ninetta." The performance reveals the fact that the tenor voice is of silken quality and excellent timbre. There is fire in it as well as delicacy of expression. The tone control is exceptional. From declamatory phrase to a caressing open note the voice slips with masterly ease. The emotional traits shown in the singing tell us that john Coates has temperament that lifts him very high among English artists. The record is a delightful conception throughout.

Miss FLORA WOODMAN (soprano) AVISH as we were in the praises of L our New Night- ingale in issuing her first record last month, the public were still more laudatory. Everyone was keen to possess the superb record of " Oh Tell me Nightingale," which was voted a revelation of voice, singing and reproduction.Meanwhile, Flora Woodman's triumphs grow day by day. Her second record is another artless ballad of olden times-the kind of song When Myra sings we seek th' whose performance enchanting sound, requires the "art which And bless the notes that do so sweetly wound; conceals art."

The beauty of the singing and effects can but faintly be conveyed by print. Hearing will enthrall you. The orchestra quickly makes way for the flute whose roulades and flourishes are out-done by the bird-like voice that breaks in on the instrument's carol. The lyric tone-quality that shines out from the record like the shimmer of a precious stone is equalled only by the amazing certainty of attack of this lovely voice. Charming Alma Gluck-how much longer before you leave your American triumphs and smile on us here again ? The few Gluck concerts we have been favoured with have whetted our appetite for more. However, we have her records which are mirror-like reproductions of the original voice and art. The new one is a masterpiece. (Speed 80) Lieut.

This was the first record ever played in the Albert Hall with accompaniment of the full (real) band of the Coldstream Guards conducted by Dr. Rogan. None present will ever forget the electrifying effect on the audience as the tones of " His Master's Voice " Auxetophone rolled through the hall. Many were visibly affected, so touching and uplifting was the song. In declaring that Stewart Gardner's new record of the air is the equal of the old one, we pay our brilliant young baritone the highest compliment. His noble voice resounds majestically with the stately phrases, full religious fervour being imparted to the memorable lines. Either as a piece of pure singing or as an example of interpretation of religious music, it is a little masterpiece. The recording is notably good.

  • 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.

  • COATES of Lynr-L
    ROBERT COATES OF LYNr-l. MASS. AND SOME OF HIS DESCENDANTS Compiled by EVELYN (COAT.ES) AHERIN Printing courtesy of Belle Coates 1970 Syracuse~ New York Ll.brary of Congress Catalog No. 70-148818 Fergus Graphic Arts Printers Chula Vis ta , California ACKNOWLEOOEMENT When asked why she attempted THE GENEALOGY OF ROBERT COATES OF LYNN, MASS. AND SOME OF HIS DESCENDANTS, my cousin Evelyn Aherin gave two reasons. Foremost, she was motivated by the high regard with which she held her father, Chauncey Sterling Coates. She wanted to explore his family background to dis­ cover sources that may have contributed to moulding the out­ standing inner strength and integrity of his character which later exerted such a powerful exemplary force in her own life. Coupled with this filial urge was her determination to prove or disprove--"we are a skeptical lot••--the contention of MAYFLOWER and Revolutionary heritage that cropped up all through her childhood from older members in more than one branch of the Coates family. Years of family talk and hearsay eventually found factual basis in a handwritten, unsigned note among genealogical mat­ erial collected in 1927 by my father, Louis Allen Coates. This note enabled Evelyn to prove our connection through the Leonard­ Bates line to Stephen Hopkins, a MAYFLOWER passenger. Then on the heels of her initial triumph, further research into the Bible records of the Titus Wood family proved the final link to a still more important MAYFLOWER ancestor--Lieut. Governor William Bradford. Here was the zenith of her research. Here she found family belief and esteem doubly justified.

Largely owing to the enthus­ iasm of John Knowles, the compiler of the discography, a list of possible recordings was assembled and approved. EMI kindly made the records avail­ able to us and a master tape was made at their Abbey Road studios earlier this year. Pressing of the records is now under way at Nimbiis Records. The sleeve will include full details of each record used (including date and venue of recording) together with historical notes.
