There remains, though – even in the face of odds that can appear overwhelming Whose mind – the underpinning steadfastness of the astonishing truth that ‘love never fails’ (see 1 Corinthians 13). I once emailed the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Westminster, the Most Rev Vincent Nichols – we share a birthday, is stayed incidentally – inviting him to tell me his favourite verse of Scripture. He graciously responded with his Episcopal motto: Fortis ut mors dilectio, meaning ‘Love is as strong as death’, taken from Song of Songs 8:6 on thee and 7: ‘Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame. Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot sweep it away’ (NIV). I have rarely been so struck by such a beautifully resilient collection of words. This, for me, is when love gets iron-tough, cast in the furnace of devotion – when caring for a loved one whose mental faculties are waning means attempting to help that person with menial tasks that, once upon a time, they could have managed with AM indebted to Commissioner Paul du ease, while wanting for them all the dignity Plessis for kindly drawing my attention in the world; handling one who remains I to Dementia Awareness Week.

  • Soprano Cornet
    SOPRANO CORNET: THE HIDDEN GEM OF THE TRUMPET FAMILY by YANBIN CHEN (Under the Direction of Brandon Craswell) ABSTRACT The E-flat soprano cornet has served an indispensable role in the British brass band; it is commonly considered to be “the hottest seat in the band.”1 Compared to its popularity in Britain and Europe, the soprano cornet is not as familiar to players in North America or other parts of world. This document aims to offer young players who are interested in playing the soprano cornet in a brass band a more complete view of the instrument through the research of its historical roots, its artistic role in the brass band, important solo repertoire, famous players, approach to the instrument, and equipment choices. The existing written material regarding the soprano cornet is relatively limited in comparison to other instruments in the trumpet family. Research for this document largely relies on established online resources, as well as journals, books about the history of the brass band, and questionnaires completed by famous soprano cornet players, prestigious brass band conductors, and composers. 1 Joseph Parisi, Personal Communication, Email with Yanbin Chen, April 15, 2019. In light of the increased interest in the brass band in North America, especially at the collegiate level, I hope this project will encourage more players to appreciate and experience this hidden gem of the trumpet family.
