  • Forty Years On
    FORTY YEARS ON One of the really pleasing features of classical music is the way so many of its devotees are keen to encourage and promote its performance. As early as 1961 a group of members of the Amersham and Chesham Bois Choral Society led by Carol Gray, the Secretary, John Voss, the Chairman and Michael Pelloe, the Musical Director, staged an evening by the Jacques Orchestra. Michael knew Dr Jacques. The following year the orchestra performed again but this time with Leon Goossens. In January 1963 and in October 1964 Opera for All were the artistes; in June 1965 Phyllis Sellick and Cyril Smith. Twelve months later, there were two concerts in one year - the Jacques Orchestra, and La Traviata enacted by Opera for All. It is not surprising that, out of all this musical activity, John Voss, Carol Gray and others should, on 16th March 1967, hold the first meeting of the Steering Committee to arrange the founding of the Amersham Concert Club. They produced a draft constitution. The inaugural meeting was held in St John’s Church Hall on 23rd May 1967 and there was a reception in October in the Crown Hotel, Old Amersham. They invited Gerald Moore to become the Club’s first President. A season ticket for the winter season’s three concerts was priced at one guinea, and single tickets at 10 shillings. On the 4th November Denis Matthews performed at Dr Challoner's Grammar School, two months later, on the 12th January 1968, Opera for All staged a concert at Dr Challoner's High School and the season finished with the Allegri String Quartet on the 4th May, back at the Grammar School.

  • Schubert's Winterreise in Nineteenth-Century Concerts
    Detours on a Winter’s Journey: Schubert’s Winterreise in Nineteenth-Century Concerts NATASHA LOGES Downloaded from http://online.ucpress.edu/jams/article-pdf/74/1/1/465161/jams_74_1_1.pdf by American Musicological Society Membership Access user on 03 June 2021 Introduction For a time Schubert’s mood became more gloomy and he seemed upset. When I asked him what was the matter he merely said to me “Well, you will soon hear it and understand.” One day he said to me “Come to Schober’s to-day, I will sing you a cycle of awe-inspiring songs. I am anxious to know what you will say about them. They have affected me more than has been the case with any other songs.” So, in a voice wrought with emotion, he sang the whole of the “Winterreise” through to us.1 In 1858, Schubert’s friend Josef von Spaun published a memoir of Schubert that included this recollection of the composer’s own performance of his Winterreise,D.911.Spaun’s poignant account is quoted in nearly every pro- gram and recording liner note for the work, and many assume that he meant all twenty-four songs in the cycle, roughly seventy-five uninterrupted minutes of music, presented to a rapt, silent audience—in other words, a standard, modern performance.2 Spaun’s emotive recollection raises many questions, however. The first concerns what Spaun meant by “the whole of the ‘Winter- reise,’” and this depends on the date of this performance, which cannot be established. As many scholars have observed, Schubert most likely sang only the twelve songs he had initially composed.3 Susan Youens recounts that the 1.
