  • Dame Joan Hammond (1912-1966) 2
    AUSTRALIAN EPHEMERA COLLECTION FINDING AID DAME JOAN HILDA HOOD HAMMOND (1912-1996) PERFORMING ARTS PROGRAMS AND EPHEMERA (PROMPT) PRINTED AUSTRALIANA JULY 2018 Dame Joan Hilda Hood Hammond, DBE, CMG (24 May 1912 – 26 November 1996) was a New Zealand born Australian operatic soprano, singing coach and champion golfer. She toured widely, and became noted particularly for her Puccini roles, and appeared in the major opera houses of the world – the Royal Opera House Covent Garden, La Scala, the Vienna State Opera and the Bolshoi. Her fame in Britain came not just from her stage appearances but from her recordings. A prolific artist, Hammond's repertoire encompassed Verdi, Handel, Tchaikovsky, Massenet, Beethoven, as well as folk song, art song, and lieder. She returned to Australia for concert tours in 1946, 1949 and 1953, and starred in the second Elizabethan Theatre Trust opera season in 1957. She undertook world concert tours between 1946 and 1961. She became patron and a life member of the Victorian Opera Company (since 1976, the Victorian State Opera – VSO), and was the VSO's artistic director from 1971 until 1976 and remained on the board until 1985. Working with the then General Manager, Peter Burch, she invited the young conductor Richard Divall to become the company's Musical Director in 1972. She joined the Victorian Council of the Arts, was a member of the Australia Council for the Arts opera advisory panel, and was an Honorary Life Member of Opera Australia. She was important to the success of both the VSO and Opera Australia. Hammond embarked on a second career as a voice teacher after her performance career ended.

  • The Complete EMI Audio Tape Guide Audio Tape Guide
    The Complete EMI Audio Tape Guide By David Winter Version of 23 FEBRUARY 2014 This list contains all known EMI (His Master’s Voice and Columbia) tapes released between 1952 and the early 1960s. Any new version will contain minor fixes or updates, or unreleased titles. If you wish to contribute, please email me at [email protected] with good quality pictures showing what should be updated or added. Thank you. Change log: - New format, hopefully for better reading. Tape catalog prefixes, tape types and misc details: EMI issued their "tape records" under two brands: His Master's Voice (HMV) and Columbia (COL). They were all recorded in 2 channel format, either in mono (twin sided) or stereo (Stereosonic, single sided). They are always 7-inch reels playing at 7.5ips (or 19 centimeters per second). Only a few recordings have been made available both in mono and stereo. However, many titles have been recorded in either format by different performers. Some titles were eventually imported in America by RCA when the company was licenced to produce the equivalent LPs. The table below shows the four catalog codes used for each type of tape and by each brand. Later 4-track stereo tapes and 2-track "Twin Packs" are not included in this list. This guide is based on EMI's catalog of 1958 and may be missing titles released shortly after. Mono Stereo CAT BTA CBT BTB COL CCT BTC CDT BTD HTA SAT HTB SBT HMV HTC SCT HTD SDT Other wordings: / between orchestra and conductor means "conducted by".
