  • Treorchy Male Choir Brief History 1993
    TREORCHY MALE CHOIR BRIEF HISTORY 1993 By Norman Martin Registrar & Honorary Archivist JANUARY Thursday January 14th Tonight’s rehearsal was visited by David Wyndham Lewis, organise of the World Choir Project. After the rehearsal a meeting was held to explain the conditions for a visit by the Choir to Atlanta, Georgia from February 8-12. Time was essential and names of choristers wishing to go must be given on Tuesday. The cost per chorister is £50 with the £50 per man from Choir funds. This is to cover the short fall in air fares of £5,000. Accommodation on travelling to the USA will be met by the World Choir organisation. Thursday January 21st At tonight’s rehearsal Life Membership was conferred on John Davies and Alun Hughes. FEBRUARY Saturday February 6th Warwick University On the day that Wales emerged from its recession by beating England at Cardiff Arms Park 10-9, the Choir travelled to Warwick University to start the year’s engagement programme. For the first time the Choir travelled by Bebb’s buses which left Treorchy at 4.15pm and travelled from the BBC Studios to Cardiff Castle to pick up choristers after the match. The drivers were Wally Underhill and Mike Griffiths. Finally the Choir reached Warwick University in time for tea and sandwiches and the concert started at 8pm. The Mayor presented a large cheque of £2,5000 to Kenilworth Round Table who had organised the concert, the proceeds of which were in aid of the Amanda Bevan Rehabilitation Centre in Coventry. As always there was a large and responsive audience and the choristers were elated with the Welsh rugby success.

  • JOHN Wesley's “DIRECTIONS for SINGING”
    Methodist History, 47:4 (July 2009) JOHN WESLEy’S “DIRECTIONS FOR SINGING”: METHODIST HYMNODY AS AN EXPRESSION OF METHODIST BELIEFS IN THOUGHT AND PRACTICE MARTIN V. CLARKE John Wesley’s “Directions for Singing” was included as an appendage to Select Hymns: with Tunes Annext (1761), a collection of hymn texts and tunes designed for congregational use across the Methodist Connexion.1 Although a list of only seven brief points, it reveals much about the way in which Wesley desired music to be used in Methodist worship and the ben- efits that he believed could be reaped from its effective use. Carlton Young suggests that the “Directions” represent “Wesley’s attempts to standardize hymn singing performance and repertory,”2 which is borne out by their pub- lication together with the tunes of Select Hymns, which Wesley advocated as authentically Methodist. The full significance of these instructions can only be understood when they are considered in relation to the theological and doctrinal position of Methodism, while they need to be assessed alongside Select Hymns and other collections of tunes used within Methodism in order to evaluate their impact. They highlight the importance Wesley attached to Select Hymns, while also offering more general practical advice, before con- cluding with a reminder of the purpose of congregational singing: That this part of Divine Worship may be the more acceptable to God, as well as the more profitable to yourself and others, be careful to observe the following direc- tions. I. Learn these Tunes before you learn any others; afterwards learn as many as you please.

Retrieved from http://www-usr.rider.edu/~vrme/ It is with pleasure that we inaugurate the reprint of the entire seven volumes of The Quarterly Journal of Music Teaching and Learning. The journal began in 1990 as The Quarterly. In 1992, with volume 3, the name changed to The Quarterly Journal of Music Teaching and Learning and continued until 1997. The journal contained articles on issues that were timely when they appeared and are now important for their historical relevance. For many authors, it was their first major publication. Visions of Research in Music Education will publish facsimiles of each issue as it originally appeared. Each article will be a separate pdf file. Jason D. Vodicka has accepted my invitation to serve as guest editor for the reprint project and will compose a new editorial to introduce each volume. Chad Keilman is the production manager. I express deepest thanks to Richard Colwell for granting VRME permission to re-publish The Quarterly in online format. He has graciously prepared an introduction to the reprint series.

The performance was held on the day of the Powergen Cup Semi-Final which saw the London Wasps against the Leicester Tigers, followed by Bath Rugby playing against the Llanelli Scarlets.

In1987 further research was done on the question of tune authorship and musical style; the material was revised several times in the years that followed. As the 500th anniversary of the Reformation approached, it was brought into its present form. An unexpected insight came from examining the tunes associated with the Luther’s hymn texts: Luther employed several types (styles) of melody. Viewed from later centuries it is easy to lump all his hymn tunes in one category and label them “medieval” hymns. Over the centuries scholars have studied many questions about each melody, especially its origin: did it derive from an existing Gregorian melody or from a preexisting hymn tune or folk song? In studying Luther’s tunes it became clear that he chose melody structures and styles associated with different music-making occasions and groups in society.

  • And We Were Singing Hymns and Arias …
    AND WE WERE SINGING HYMNS AND ARIAS ….. More memories from Joe For the third of my lockdown projects, and with the help of Gethin Williams, Keith Warren, Jeremy Wood and Dr Haydn James, I take a look at all the sporting arena performances that the London Welsh Male Voice Choir have been involved in. The Arenas The rehearsals are over. You walk out in your red jackets, heart-thumping, into a half empty stadium and stand on the pitch, pre-match, looking at the vast space of the arena that will, in a short time, be packed to the rafters with fervent supporters. You are performing to a captive audience who’s heart and soul are perfectly in tune with yours and who give you their undivided attention as the atmosphere is ramped up minutes before kick-off. You are privileged to be here, walking on hallowed turf. You feel the excitement and pride of appearing before an expectant nation. You smell the newly cut and watered grass. You hear the roar and stand in unison with your heroes as they walk onto the pitch. There is a moment’s silence as the crowd rises and all eyes are on you, and your eyes are on the conductor, as his baton brings in the band accompaniment before experiencing the spine-tingling emotion of singing your national anthem to an arena packed with rugby fans and a live television audience of millions. You are part of extraordinary matches and witness legends being made, and folklore created in song. You are on the fi eld with The London Welsh Male Voice Choir and you will be part of some of Wales’s most iconic rugby matches in modern times.

  • A Transformational Method for Chorale Generation
    A Transformational Method for Chorale Generation Raymond Whorley1 and Darrell Conklin1,2 1 Department of Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence University of the Basque Country UPV/EHU, San Sebasti´an, Spain 2 IKERBASQUE, Basque Foundation for Science, Bilbao, Spain [email protected],[email protected] Abstract. Music sampled from a statistical model tends to lack long- term structure. This problem can be ameliorated by transforming an existing piece of music into a new one, such that the structure of the original is retained. A method for transforming Bach chorales is pre- sented here. Sampling is constrained by chord symbols, phrase boundary information, soprano note lengths and key regions from the original mu- sic. Two corpora are used: one of hymn tune harmonisations by various composers, and the other of chorale melody harmonisations by J. S. Bach. 1 Introduction A problem with Markov models for music generation is that music sampled from a model tends to lack long-term structure; that is, the output can seem to wander due to the limited context used. The solution proposed here is to transform an existing piece of music such that the new piece is related to the original in some abstract way. To generate a well-structured four-part harmonic texture, hopefully including a coherent and novel melody, a structural template is created from a chorale melody harmonisation by J. S. Bach. Multiple pieces are then generated in line with the template with the aim of finding low cross- entropy (negative mean log probability) solutions, as these tend to be in better compliance with generally agreed rules of harmony [1].
