A HISTORY OF THE CORNISH MALE VOICE CHOIR: THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MUSIC, PLACE AND CULTURE by SUSAN MARGARET SKINNER A thesis submitted to the University of Plymouth in partial fulfilment for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of Humanities and Performing Arts Faculty of Arts July 2013 Susan Margaret Skinner A History of the Cornish Male Voice Choir: the relationship between music, place and culture Abstract This thesis documents and examines the history of Cornish male voice choirs from their origins in the late nineteenth century through to the present day. The evolution of the choirs has hitherto been charted largely through scattered oral testimonies, whereas this work traces the rise, decline and resurgence of the male choral tradition by drawing from a range of primary sources, including newspapers and repertoire in addition to oral history. The thesis is organised chronologically and the main chapters chart the development of Cornish male voice choirs from the Methodist point of origin, to the subsequent expansion of the male choral movement between the wars and thereafter its seeming atrophy. The opening two chapters focus on the background and emergence of the choirs from c.1820 to 1918. The interwar period is covered in three diverse but linked chapters, assessing the socio-economic context, musicological influences and the importance of geographic locality or ‘place’. The impact of the Second World War on the choirs is examined in Chapter Six. The following chapter traces how the choirs remained vibrant in the face of encroaching secularisation during the 1950s and 1960s, and the final chapter assesses the detrimental effects for the choirs of changed musical behaviours and generational issues in the late twentieth century choir. Four key themes which run throughout the chapters are the influence of Methodism, its teachings and choral hymnody; the significance of repertoire and musical directorship; the importance of the male demographic within the local economy; and secularisation and mass popular culture. The connecting thread of the argument for the thesis as a whole is that male voice choirs both reflect and help shape Cornish identity. As will be seen, identity is a fluid, multi-layered concept, but analysis of the changing role and influence of male voice choirs contributes to a deeper understanding of the complex relationship between music, place and culture.

Word count of main body of thesis: 71,835 Signed…………………………............................ Date……………………………………………… xii Introduction In 2003 the inaugural British International Male Voice Choral Festival took place in Cornwall and in subsequent years has established itself as a biennial festival of international repute. The original idea was conceived and brought to fruition by the then director of the British Choral Institute, Dr Roy Wales, an inspirational catalyst in the launch of this major cultural enterprise. English and Welsh choirs numbered among the international gathering participating in both the competition arena and Festival concerts and events. At the conclusion of a performance by one of the overseas choirs, a Yorkshire choir member commented: ‘Technically they are superior to our choirs ... And it’s good to see a lot of young people in the European choirs. The average age of the British and Cornish choirs must be well into the fifties.’1 A Finnish choir integrated innovative choreography into their choral performance, prompting the following remark from a ‘bewildered’ choir member from Manchester: ‘How do you compete with that?’2 Couched within these remarks is a concern for the future of male voice choirs, though neither comment overtly states this. Presentations from eight international speakers at the International Male Voice Choral Festival two years later focused on the subject of the long-term survival of male voice choirs relative to choral traditions.3 The one-day symposium debated the issues of 1 Western Morning News, 5 May 2003. 2 Western Morning News, 5 May 2003. 3 Western Morning News, 12 April 2005.

From the mid-twentieth century to the present day, the socio-musical transformations evident in popular music have reflected generational and gender issues impacting on society to a degree not previously observed.

  • ANNUAL REVIEW 2015/2016 Gwytha Ha Crefhe! 30 Years Preserving and Strengthening Our Cornish Heritage
    ANNUAL REVIEW 2015/2016 Gwytha ha Crefhe! 30 years preserving and strengthening our Cornish heritage In the early 1980’s there was a growing concern that too much of the Cornish heritage was under threat from potential private buyers. Two such sites were Land’s End and Lamorna Cove and there was no organisation in Cornwall with the ability to raise the funds required to save the sites. On the 19th February 1983 a group of people got together with the idea of forming such an organisation with the aim of saving buildings, ancient artifacts and important heritage sites. It was the irst of regular meetings, held at the Royal Hotel in Truro, and the Oficers elected were Acting Chairman The Honourable Robert Eliot, Acting Vice Chairman Mrs June Lander, Secretary Mr John Menhinick, Assistant Secretary Mr Jack Spry and the Treasurer Mr Tim Le Grice. At the meeting it was unanimously agreed that Mr Kenneth Kendall be elected as the irst Patron. Subsequent meetings eventually resulted in the Our Education portfolio includes projects with Primary appointments of The Honourable Robert Eliot as Chairman schools and the funding of transport for class visits to with Mrs Moira Tangye as Vice Chairman, The Hon. Treasurer heritage sites which many schools are taking advantage of Mr Carl Roberts and The Hon. Secretary Mr John Menhinick. due to the dificulty of funding in this area. Mr Jack Spry became the Membership Secretary and a We award bursaries to post graduate students who are solicitor, Mr Robin Bailey, was also appointed. So on the studying Cornish history, and in this we work very closely with 2nd April 1985 the Cornwall Heritage Trust came into being, the Institute of Cornish Studies and Exeter University.
