Jess Gillam Ensemble Thursday 15 July, St Mary’s Church 8.00pm - 9.00pm Jess Gillam Ensemble The Jess Gillam Ensemble includes Roberts Balanas & Michael Jones (violins); Eoin Schmidt-Martin (viola); Gabriella Swallow (cello); Sam Becker (bass); Elsa Bradley (percussion) and Leif Kaner-Lidstrom (piano) Early Morning Melody arr. Meredith Monk (born 1942) This poignant folk-like melody for solo saxophone by multi-talented American composer Meredith Monk possesses a haunting beauty and is taken from her 1990 collection the Book of Days. Melody No. 10 from Melodies for Saxophone Phillip Glass (born 1937) Philip Glass’s thirteen Melodies for Saxophone feels a world away from the repeated note patterns associated with his minimalist classic Music in Twelve Parts or his ground-breaking operas Einstein on the Beach and Akhnaten. Melodies for Saxophone was conceived as incidental music for Jean Genet’s adapted book Prisoner of Love – a memoir of the author’s encounters with Palestinian fighters and Black Panthers in the 1970s. The tenth of these miniatures features tenderly decorative phrases. Dappled Light Luke Howard (born 1978) A rippling accompaniment supports languid saxophone phrases in Luke Howard’s evocative Dappled Light, a recent work from the contemporary Australian pianist and composer whose reputation for ambient music has secured growing numbers of devotees. Flare John Harle (born 1956) Prolific composer of over one hundred film and TV scores and world-renowned saxophonist, John Harle’s ‘Flare’ belongs to the first of his three movement Saxophone Concerto entitled Briggflatts. Premiered at the Queen Elizabeth Hall in 2019, the work was inspired by the autobiographical poem by Basil Bunting, named after the Briggflatts Quaker meeting house near Sedbergh in Cumbria, which the poet regularly attended. ‘Flare’ was written, so Harle comments, after long sessions of piano improvisation in direct response to the poetry. Venus as a Boy (arr. John Metcalfe) Guðmundsdóttir Björk (born 1965) Over her four-decade career, Iceland singer and songwriter Björk has developed an eclectic musical style that draws on a range of influences and genres spanning electronic, pop, experimental, trip hop, classical, and avant-garde music. Venus as a Boy is a 1993 song about a boy who saw everything from the point of view of beauty. Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence arr. John Metcalfe Ryuichi Sakamoto (born 1952) Ryuichi Sakamoto is one of Japan’s most illustrious musicians, finding fame with electronic pop group Yellow Magic Orchestra in the late 1970s. Like Björk, his music inhabits a similar stylistic diversity and is heard to good advantage in this attractive instrumental song Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence which belongs to the eponymous film of 1983 starring David Bowie. Oboe Concerto Alessandro Marcello (1673-1747) 1 Andante e spiccato, 2 Adagio, 3 Presto The son of a Venetian nobleman and elder brother of the more prolific Benedetto Marcello, Alessandro was a highly cultured polymath, active as composer, poet and instrument collector, and also working within the judicial system of his native Venice. His Concerto in D minor (once ascribed to his brother) was published in a 1717 and soon came to the attention of J.S. Bach who admired it enough to make a solo harpsichord arrangement. The primary stimulus for Marcello’s work is vocal and principally derives from the various styles of 18th century operatic arias. The elegant first movement contrasts gratifying solo phrases with more strenuous episodes for unison strings. There follows a beautiful lament, while the fleet-footed third bears kinship with a typical ‘rage’ aria to bring this engaging work to a buoyant close. Suspirium (arr. Benjamin Rimmer) Thom Yorke (born 1968) Achieving renown with the rock band Radiohead, singer, songwriter and guitarist Thom Yorke has written several scores for film and theatre of which the soundtrack to Suspiria was released in 2018. Relinquishing horror motifs, the gentle ‘Suspirium’ forms the opening track from Suspiria in which Yorke fashions an unruffled waltz evoking a certain calm before the storm. Orbit Will Gregory (born 1959) Scored for marimba, string quartet, bass synthesizer and saxophone, Orbit is an uplifting instrumental number written by Will Gregory of Goldfrapp fame - the electronic music duo Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory. On his vibrant work he has commented ‘Orbit is a circular journey presenting different facets of the same underlying view … by turns subtle and crude… cajoling then pleading’. Histoire du Tango (arr. Simon Parkin) Ástor Piazzolla (1921-1992) 1 Bordel 2 Café 1930 3 Nightclub 1960 There’s an undeniable rhythmic impetus behind the music of Argentine composer Ástor Piazzolla about whom it has been remarked he was to the tango what Johann Strauss was to the waltz. His career developed rapidly after a period of study in Paris in the 1950s with Nadia Boulanger who recognised that his true artistic path was in his Latin American roots. It was through her Piazzolla realised the possibilities of combining jazz and classical genres which would morph into an exotic blend of Gallic elegance and South American dance. This would express itself in Histoire du Tango compiled by Piazzolla in 1986 and designed to transfer music commonly associated with the streets and clubs of Buenos Aires to the concert hall. The first movement, ‘Bordel 1900’, is written in the fast, lively style of the first tangos, played and danced in the bordellos of Buenos Aires starting around 1882. ‘Café 1930’ brings poetic melancholy, while ‘Nightclub 1960’, is enlivened by the influence Brazilian bossa nova; its passionate, rambunctious style creating enduring fame for the composer. Generously sponsored by Beth Dugan, Judy Flint, Trevor & Lynne Matthews, Gordon & Tina Owen and Roger & Charlotte Ter Haar .

  • The Passion of Joan of Arc with Adrian Utley, Will Gregory and Charles Hazlewood Supported by Hauser & Wirth Somerset
    HAUSER & WIRTH Press Release The Passion of Joan of Arc With Adrian Utley, Will Gregory and Charles Hazlewood Supported by Hauser & Wirth Somerset Wells Cathedral, Somerset, England Friday 7 October 2016, 8 pm Hauser & Wirth Somerset, in collaboration with Adrian Utley (Portishead), Will Gregory (Goldfrapp) and award- winning conductor Charles Hazlewood, presents a special live orchestral performance and film screening in the magnificent medieval setting of Wells Cathedral. Adrian Utley and Will Gregory have devised a new score sound-tracking the dramatic and moving narrative of Danish film director Carl Theodor Dreyer’s ‘The Passion of Joan of Arc’ (1928), which chronicles Joan of Arc’s trial and execution during her captivity in France. Initially commissioned by the Colston Hall and supported by The Watershed, Bristol, the inventive new score will be performed live alongside a screening of the film, led by Charles Hazlewood with members of the Monteverdi Choir, percussion, horns, harp and synthesizers. Wells Cathedral is located at the heart of England’s smallest city, Wells in Somerset, situated 13 miles from Hauser & Wirth Somerset. Cited as one of the earliest English cathedrals to be constructed in Gothic style, the building is a treasured and significant architectural landmark in the south west of England. The distinguished setting will provide a unique opportunity to witness Hazlewood, Utley and Gregory’s breathtaking and inspired production. Located on the outskirts of Bruton, Hauser & Wirth Somerset is an innovative world-class gallery and arts centre that works in partnership with many local institutions, businesses and organisations to foster local creative talent and champion charities related to art, community, conservation and education.

Their ambitious programme is a marathon journey into music, image, and their meeting points in today’s culture. Richter and Mahr’s programme follows previous curation by respected musicians and artists including Nico Muhly, Bryce Dessner and Nils Frahm. Co-curators Richter and Mahr said: “StudioRichterMahr, our 25 year collaboration, has taken many forms over the years. From the cafés of Hackney, our kitchen table in Edinburgh, the studios and gallery in Berlin, to its current incarnation; deep in the English countryside, our work has encompassed all manner of collisions between sound and image, and this marathon weekend, ‘Sounds and Visions’ sums up one of our central concerns - that creativity exists as a social project that can illuminate the lives of individuals and society as a whole, and that art exists beyond all boundaries.” Numerous events both ticketed and free, including concerts and film screenings, will take place across the Barbican Hall, foyers, cinemas, and the neighbouring venues of LSO St Luke’s, Milton Court Concert Hall and St Giles’ Cripplegate.

  • Monstrosity and Motherhood: Visions of the Terrible Mother Ruby Jean Dudasik This Thesis Has Been Submitted on This Day of April
    Monstrosity and Motherhood: Visions of the Terrible Mother Ruby Jean Dudasik This thesis has been submitted on this day of April 30, 2020 in partial fulfillment of the degree requirements for the NYU Global Liberal Studies Bachelor of Arts degree. 2 Abstract This thesis attempts to answer the “Medea question”: what is it about monstrous mothers, starting with Medea and reappearing in countless other places, that is so continually relevant over the years, and in many different societies? Through examining the Greek Medea, Marina Carr’s By The Bog of Cats, and Ibsen’s A Doll’s House, I analyze anti-maternal women within their respective social contexts. I contend that the character of the monstrous mother has dual functionality. Firstly, she represents an attempt by female playwrights and contributors to reclaim a role that has been historically imposed upon them: the idea of motherhood as an obligation and a sacred duty. Secondly, to those in positions of privilege, these terrible mothers are an explosive threat to the very power structures they depend on to maintain that privilege. I utilize feminist theory, dramatic analysis, and historical and sociocultural frameworks to deconstruct - and then reconstruct - the terrible mother, and the enduring popularity and adaptability of the murderous Medea. Keywords: anti-motherhood, Euripides, feminism, theater, monstrosity, patriarchy, By the Bog of Cats, A Doll’s House, Medea 3 Table of Contents Acknowledgements 4 Preface: The Medea Question 5 Chapter I: The Early Antimother 9 The Monstrous Maternal in Euripides’ Medea Chapter II: The Adapted Antimother 28 Reclaiming Maternal Agency in By the Bog of Cats Chapter III: Beyond Medea 49 Anti-motherhood in Ibsen’s A Doll’s House Coda: To Face the Unthinkable 71 Appendix 77 References 83 4 Acknowledgements This thesis would not exist without the invaluable support of the following people, who I am lucky to call my mentors and friends.
