    Bath Choral Society Vaughan Williams Symphony No 5 Tippett A Child of Our Time Saturday 21 March 2015, 7.30pm Bath Abbey Soprano: Alice Privett Mezzo Soprano: Kate Symonds-Joy Tenor: David Butt Philip Bass: Alex Ashworth Conductor: Will Dawes Programme £3 Southern Sinfonia contains full libretto bath-choral-society.org.uk Photos by Richard Hurd and Jo Bryant BATH CHORAL SOCIETY Conductor: Will Dawes Southern Sinfonia Leader: Alexander Hohenthal Ralph Vaughan Williams Symphony No. 5 in D Interval Michael Tippett A Child of our Time Soprano: Alice Privett Mezzo Soprano: Kate Symonds-Joy Tenor: David Butt Philip Bass: Alex Ashworth Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1955) Symphony no.5 in D In every one of Vaughan Williams’s nine symphonies, the composer’s evocative style encourages the listener to conjure up mental pictures: the first three even have pictorial titles. ‘A Sea Symphony’ and ‘A London Symphony’ were followed by a ‘Pastoral Symphony’. But the pastoral element in that third work is ultimately ironic. Written while the composer’s personal experiences of the First World War must still have been vivid, it is more a lament for the war’s loss of life and for the loss of a way of life. In many respects the work we will hear tonight is more directly pastoral in its impact. The first performance, conducted by the composer, was held in London in 1943 at the height of the Second World War, but the magical opening immediately transports us far away from chaos and destruction to an Arcadian Forest of Arden. Horn calls emerge mysteriously from this other world, answered by string figurations swirling around in a different key.

  • Les Illuminations, Britten's Persoonlijkheid in De Cyclus
    Universiteit Gent Faculteit Letteren en Wijsbegeerte Vakgroep Kunst-, muziek- en theaterwetenschappen Les Illuminations, Britten’s persoonlijkheid in de cyclus. Imke De Hert 20034451 Masterproef Academische Master in de kunstwetenschappen, optie musicologie Academiejaar: 2007 – 2008 Promotor Prof. Dr. F. Maes Dankwoord Deze scriptie is tot standgekomen via de medewerking en steun van verschillende mensen. Ik zou dan ook willen startten met mijn dank jegens hen te uiten. In de eerste plaats Prof. Dr. F. Maes voor de boeiende opleiding, voor de begeleiding en het promotorschap. Zonder Prof. Maes was mijn aandacht niet op het onderwerp gevestigd. Ik zou ook al de professoren en doctors van de opleiding musicologie willen bedanken voor de gevarieerde opleiding en enkele docenten van het conservatorium voor het verbreden van mijn horizon, respectievelijk F. Rathé en G. Dhondt. Ook gaat mijn dank naar Frank Nuyts die me met zijn expertise als Britten-kenner bijstond. Tevens dank voor de Nuyts-introductie. Mijn mede musicologie studenten draag ik een warm hart toe voor vier jaar steun en raad. Mijn oprechte dank naar mijn zus Lobke en Ingeborg die mij hielp bij de verbetering en het nalezen van deze thesis. En tevens mijn oprechte dank voor mijn ouders die dit alles hebben mogelijk gemaakt en zonder wiens steun ik niet tot het sluitstuk van mijn opleiding was geraakt. Graag zou ik willen afsluiten met een voornemen. Na twee jaar te hebben doorgebracht met Les Illuminations, gaat de cyclus me nauw aan het hart. De dag dat ik afstudeer voor mijn zangopleiding zal ik één lied kiezen, in nagedachte van Benjamin Britten, een opmerkelijk componist.

Its role in Christian theology and spirituality has a much longer history, but by the beginning of the twentieth century, its expressive potential had not been significantly recognized in liturgical choral music. This study examined the relationship between twentieth-century musical silence and the expression of silence as the ineffable in Anglican choral music (referred to as English cathedral music or ECM) of the middle of the twentieth century.

  • Touch the Angel's Hand Performed October 19, 2002 Agnus Dei
    Touch the Angel's Hand Performed October 19, 2002 Agnus Dei César Franck (1822-1890) is one of an improbably large number of French composers who were organists by profession and who retained posts as church organists throughout their career, a group which also includes Saint-Saëns, Fauré and Duruflé. He studied at the Paris Conservatoire where he won first prizes for piano performance at the age of fifteen and organ performance at nineteen. After graduation he took the post of organist at St. Clothilde, which he held for rest of his life and where he developed a reputation not only for his improvisational skills but also as a teacher. He eventually returned to the Conservatoire as a professor of organ, where one of his students was Louis Vierne, who himself became a renowned performer and teacher. And in a musical "six degrees of separation," Vierne in turn taught Lili Boulanger and Maurice Duruflé, both of whom are represented in this program. Franck's reputation as a composer took somewhat longer to establish. He was influenced by Bach, and his interest in harmonic structure and absolute music was somewhat at variance with the French romanticism then in vogue. This Agnus Dei is from Franck's 1861 Mass in A , an unusual work scored for three voices (soprano, tenor and bass), organ, harp and contrabass. Touch the Angel's Hand Touch the Angel's Hand was commissioned and premiered by Mendelssohn Club in 1994 in a program which paired it with the Philadelphia premiere of Benjamin Britten's The Company of Heaven.
