  • An Historical Survey of the Establishment of an Orchestral Tradition in Christchurch to 1939
    AN HISTORICAL SURVEY OF THE ESTABLISHMENT OF AN ORCHESTRAL TRADITION IN CHRISTCHURCH TO 1939 A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the University of Canterbury by Philip Jane University of Canterbury 2009 ii Abstract This dissertation is the first study devoted solely to the history of an orchestral tradition in Christchurch. Within a timeframe stretching from the beginning of the local settlement to the establishment of the first “national” orchestra in 1939, it provides detailed portrayals of all facets of amateur and professional orchestral activity. This includes the histories of all orchestral bodies, their membership, a chronology of concerts, repertoire, programme structure and critical reception. This dissertation explains the advance of orchestral tradition that is at times tentative and at times bold, until it is securely entrenched as a mainstream musical activity in Christchurch. A preliminary narration, which begins in 1857, ends in 1906 with the International Exhibition. This is then discussed as a landmark event for orchestral music in Christchurch. A series of case studies for the period of 1908 to 1939, covers each of the five major orchestral groups that flourished in this period. The case studies also include the footprints of development, the “incidental” music performed by the cinema orchestras, and the “studio only” performances of many broadcasting groups. The role played by minor orchestral groups as an “alternative” music culture is included, along with the impact of orchestras associated with visiting opera companies. The final section is a detailed analysis of the repertoire and programme construction, and a discussion of the people who played an influential role in the development of an orchestral tradition.

Probe tones and poltergeists: Two case studies in diagnosing noise sources. Kenneth A. Cunefare (Georgia Tech/Arpeggio Acoust. Consulting, Mech. Eng., Atlanta, GA 30332-0405, [email protected]) Case #1: Following construction of a new hospital building within a larger campus, residents began to complain about droning noises in the surrounding neighborhood. Blame was laid on HVAC chillers and an MRI chiller installed on exposed roof-tops of the building. However, there were numerous other chillers on buildings on the campus that were not blamed; a test using probe tones eliminated the hos- pital building as the source impacting the community. Case #2: A homeowner complained of intermittent groaning and moaning noises in the home (poltergeist-like). Interviews revealed that the noises occurred essentially randomly; while the homeowner correlated occurrences to whether or not it had recently rained, the correlation was weak. Additionally, the homeowner had found that opening a water tap would cause the sound to fade away; this was suggestive, but since the sound faded away in a short time even without opening the valve, it was not definitive.

  • Considerations for the Execution of Multiple-Stops in German Solo Violin Repertoire from 1676 to 1735
    CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE EXECUTION OF MULTIPLE-STOPS IN GERMAN SOLO VIOLIN REPERTOIRE FROM 1676 TO 1735 Lachlan James O’Donnell Bachelor of Music (Advanced Performance) with Class 1 Honours—Queensland Conservatorium Griffith University A thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2016 School of Music 1 Abstract Many unaccompanied solo violin works from the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries— particularly those written by German composers—contain extensive passages of complex multiple- stopping. Due the inherent physical limitations of the violin, these passages are in many cases impossible to execute precisely as notated. The question of how modern performers can play these passages in an historically informed way is problematic and there is little scholarship that specifically addresses it. This study goes some way towards remedying this situation, by examining the body of repertoire in which these problems are most prevalent: unaccompanied solo violin works of German composers, written between 1676 and 1735. This includes works by J.S. Bach, G.P. Telemann, J.G. Pisendel, H.I.F Biber and J.P. von Westhoff. The study begins by assessing recent scholarship relevant to this issue, with particular attention to investigations of early instruments and playing techniques and research that draws upon historical documents and pedagogical texts to examine seventeenth- and eighteenth-century interpretive practices. The study then examines how performers may practically incorporate this scholarship into their own interpretive approach to multiple stopping. This takes the form of a case study—an account of the author’s own interpretive process leading to a performance of Johann Paul von Westhoff’s Suite in A Major (1683).

  • David Thorpe
    Núñez-Fernández, Lupe, The Shape of Things to Come: New Sculpture, London: Saatchi Gallery, 2011, p. 118 DAVID THORPE David Thorpe was born in 1972 in the UK and completed his MA in Fine Art at Goldsmiths University, London. His most recent solo exhibition was at the Kunstverein Hannover in 2010. He has also had solo shows at the Kunsthaus Glarus, Switzerland, Tate Britain and Camden Arts Centre, Lon- don, and Museum Kurhaus Kleve, Germany. Thorpe lives in Berlin. David Thorpe’s work is concerned with the relationship between objects and their makers, with a particular in- terest in the role of craft and labour in handmade design and art. “I’m play- ing with certain associations,” he has said, “slightly New Age, slightly Space Age, slightly threatening. I’m abso- lutely in love with people who build up their own systems of belief.” This idea is reflected in works that variously refer- ence modernist principles of object-making, utopian social architecture, Japa- nese woodblock prints, and Victorian papercutting. In the past Thorpe has made elaborate collaged paintings, but his more recent work explores the actualisation of pattern through unusual three-dimensional renderings that highlight the tension between exquisite decorativeness and the aura of DIY home-craft manuals. The works shown here all make reference to an interconnectedness between ideology and lifestyle. I Am Golden (2002) is a miniature temple-like structure that also doubles as a plant stand. Endeavours and Private Lives (both 2010) allude to the aesthetics and theories of the Arts and Crafts Movement of the late 19th century and the democratising art ideals of William Morris and John Ruskin.
