I would like to take credit for this approach, but in all honesty the season-by-season time scale was dictated by the filming schedule of the ITV series The Seasons, for which the suite provides a soundtrack. Composing ‘Autumn’ in the autumn or ‘Spring’ in the spring turned out to be more stimulating than I had anticipated, especially as the 12 months from September 2008 to August 2009 were unusually rich in seasonal difference in the British Isles, with a ‘proper’ snowy winter even in the temperate south of England where my family and I live, something that only comes around once a decade or so.

  • Howard Goodall Never to Forget
    Never to Forget Thursday 1 July 2021 Christ Church Spitalfields Howard Goodall Never to Forget Never to Forget was commissioned by the London Symphony Chorus as a musical memorial to the many UK health and care workers who died caring for others during the 2020/21 COVID-19 pandemic. The use of their names was treated sensitively, and bereaved families were contacted, whenever possible, through their employing NHS trusts and care homes. We also consulted the NHS Confederation and NHS Employers, the NHS England People Directorate, the Royal College of Nursing, and the British Medical Association, and are grateful for their advice, support and help. The 8-minute version was first performed online by the London Symphony Chorus, members of the London Symphony Orchestra, Howard Goodall CBE and Simon Halsey CBE on 5 July 2020. This concert marks the first performance of the final 15-minute version. Composer’s note I have asked myself many times during the pandemic and its associated lockdowns what it is we composers offer the communities we serve that can be useful at a time of social trauma and distress. Musicians as a whole have been extraordinarily proactive in responding to people’s isolation with virtual choirs, bands, tutorial resources, free performances, intimate streamed sessions from home, and much else besides, on the internet. Singers and players have been not twiddling their thumbs in the most imaginative and resourceful ways. For a composer, the task is a more reflective, internal one. What can we do that adds to the huge sum of music already out there? One answer to this is music’s relationship with memory.
