  • QH 40Th Anniversary Press Release
    EMBARGOED TILL 5/11/18 at midday THE QUEEN’S HALL – LIFE BEGINS AT 40 1979-2019: Former church celebrates 40 years of welcoming music worshippers through its doors Southside of the Tracks 12.01.19 Steven Osborne & Alban Gerhardt 06.07.19 The Queen’s Hall enters its fortieth year in 2019 with a packed and varied programme of high quality events which reflect the wealth of entertainment it has provided audiences over the years, whilst also looking forward to a bright future. The celebrations start on 12 January with a who’s who of singer-songwriters brought together on the same stage for the first time by Scotland’s foremost fiddle player, John McCusker. Renowned for his skill at transcending musical boundaries, John has shared stages with Paul Weller, Paolo Nutini and Teenage Fanclub and has been a member of Mark Knopfler’s house band since 2008. In Southside of the Tracks: 40 years of traditional music at The Queen’s Hall he will perform with his chosen house band of James Mackintosh, Ian Carr, Ewen Vernal, Michael McGoldrick and Louis Abbott (Admiral Fallow) with special guests, so far, Roddy Woomble (Idlewild), Kathleen MacInnes, Phil Cunningham, Adam Holmes, Daoiri Farrell, Heidi Talbot and Rachel Sermanni. More guests are to be announced. Nigel Griffiths, Chair of The Queen’s Hall Board of Trustees says, “We’re starting our fortieth year as we mean to go on and have a bold and ambitious programme which reflects the calibre of artists performing on our stage. In the face of developing competition it is so important for Edinburgh, as the capital city, to keep this beloved institution on the map and I believe we’re now poised to enter a truly dynamic era in The Queen’s Hall’s history.” To commemorate the concert on 6 July 1979 when The Queen’s Hall was officially opened by HM Queen Elizabeth II, we have multi-award-winning Scottish pianist Steven Osborne with one of the world’s finest cellists Alban Gerhardt performing a programme of Schumann, Brahms, De falla, Debussy and Ravel.

  • OIR the GRAPEVINE Newsletter No 40 - December 2018
    OIR THE GRAPEVINE Newsletter No 40 - December 2018 ANTARCTICA At our November meeting we were captivated by Judith Parrott who was awarded an Arts Fellowship by the Australian Government in 2006 and spent four months at Casey Station, in the Windmill Islands, just outside the Antarctic Circle. It is almost twice the size of Australia and 98% of Antarctica is covered by ice where the average is 1.9km thick. Using photography, sound, audio-visual and prose Judith was able to examine the relationships between people, place and culture in this remote and fascinating part of the world. Casey Station is used for scientific research addressing critical issues: climate change, the human footprint in Antarctica, wildlife conservation and sustainable management of fisheries. Through her remarkable photographs and recordings, we were transported to Antarctica to begin to understand the climate, landscape and wildlife of the region. Living quarters were colour coded shipping containers, one of which was a hydroponics building where lettuce, green vegetables, tomatoes and fresh herbs grew. Entertainment was self-made and some evenings impromptu concerts would be staged by the expeditioners. When exploring the local icy terrain Judith travelled on skis and sometimes by boat where she captured photographs of Elephant seals, Weddell seals, Adelie penguins and Skua birds which prey on the eggs and young Adelie penguins. It was also fascinating to see photographs of the Plateau – a total white vista where Judith felt as if she was floating on a giant white flying saucer! Finally, Judith took us to another station - Mawson - situated on an isolated outcrop of rock on the coast in Mac Robertson Land, at the edge of the Antarctic plateau.

  • Investigating the Health of the UK Folk Club Dr Stephen Henderson Senior
    Investigating the health of the UK folk club Dr Stephen Henderson Senior Lecturer Leeds Metropolitan University UK Centre for Events Management Room 216 Bronte Hall Headingley Campus Leeds LS6 3QS United Kingdom Telephone: 0113 812 5514 Email: [email protected] Abstract This research addresses the conflicting views of the health of folk music by way of interviewing artists, agents, and folk club organisers/promoters. Exploring the more homogenous formats of performance observed as singarounds (including sessions), ‘open mic’ and concert clubs, it is concluded that the concert club is struggling to survive whilst the other formats are still offering opportunities to folk artists. However, the latter are finding both the formal venues such as arts centres and the emergence of young promoters provides compensatory opportunities for performance. 1. Aim of Research For many years, folk clubs have provided places of congregation for those of like musical mind to discuss, perform, enjoy and share their music. This paper explores the state of health found within the UK folk club scene where the phrase ‘folk revival’ seems to be mentioned as often as concerns are raised about the future of the folk club. In considering the state of the folk club, this work concentrates on the business models represented by different folk club formats and their relative health as opposed to the complex ethnomusicology behind the folk music format. 2. Methodology In order to address the health of the folk club, the author has interviewed twelve individuals including the artists who play these clubs, agents who book out the artists across the many venues and organisers/promoters who book the artists into these venues.
