Celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the Birth of Charles Munch To mark the centennial of the birth of Charles Munch, the Boston Symphony Archives has mounted a display of memorabilia in the Cohen Wing lobby. Using photographs, letters, programs, and other historical documents, the exhibit explores the career of Charles Munch, focusing on his tenure as Music Director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra from 1949 to 1962. In the photograph above, Munch (right) is shown with guest conductor Pierre Monteux (left), himself music director of the BSO from 1919 to 1924, and the train conductor just prior to departing on the BSO's transconti- nental tour in 1953. The Boston Symphony Archives extends special thanks to Bunnell Frame Shop for its generous assistance in mounting this exhibit.

  • A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company
    A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company Sally Elizabeth Drew A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Arts and Humanities Department of Music This work was supported by the Arts & Humanities Research Council September 2018 1 2 Abstract This thesis examines the working culture of the Decca Record Company, and how group interaction and individual agency have made an impact on the production of music recordings. Founded in London in 1929, Decca built a global reputation as a pioneer of sound recording with access to the world’s leading musicians. With its roots in manufacturing and experimental wartime engineering, the company developed a peerless classical music catalogue that showcased technological innovation alongside artistic accomplishment. This investigation focuses specifically on the contribution of the recording producer at Decca in creating this legacy, as can be illustrated by the career of Christopher Raeburn, the company’s most prolific producer and specialist in opera and vocal repertoire. It is the first study to examine Raeburn’s archive, and is supported with unpublished memoirs, private papers and recorded interviews with colleagues, collaborators and artists. Using these sources, the thesis considers the history and functions of the staff producer within Decca’s wider operational structure in parallel with the personal aspirations of the individual in exerting control, choice and authority on the process and product of recording. Having been recruited to Decca by John Culshaw in 1957, Raeburn’s fifty-year career spanned seminal moments of the company’s artistic and commercial lifecycle: from assisting in exploiting the dramatic potential of stereo technology in Culshaw’s Ring during the 1960s to his serving as audio producer for the 1990 The Three Tenors Concert international phenomenon.
