  • From the Editor Contact Elisabeth at [email protected]
    British Flute Society @BritishFluteSoc on Facebook @TheFluteEditor From the Editor Contact Elisabeth at [email protected] s December arrives, members of the British Flute Society can reflect on another successful year. In 2013, we have been privileged to enjoy exceptional recitals from our various Premier Flautists; our annual competitions continue to grow in both popularity and attainment, and there has been a growing involvement from Aour regional representatives, many of whom have organised local events. We are, as always, greatly indebted to many people: artists, trade specialists, and flute-loving volunteers, all of whom have made the events of the past year possible. In 2014 the BFS-RAM Premier Flautist recital series will continue, starting with the acclaimed duo of Andy Findon and Geoff Eales who will perform theirDancing Flute programme at the Duke’s Hall, Royal Academy of Music, on 16 February. Most excitingly, planning for the Convention is also now well under way, thanks to the hard work of Convention Director Carla Rees, and this issue unveils a preview of some of the artists who will be joining us in Warwick in August next year. Finally, on a personal note, I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to PAN over the past year. Without the generous commitment of time and expertise freely given by contributors and reviewers from around the world, this magazine could not exist. I am very grateful for your help and your flute- playing friendship. I hope you enjoy the December edition of PAN. Elisabeth Hobbs Editor December

  • Female Composer Segment Catalogue
    FEMALE CLASSICAL COMPOSERS from past to present ʻFreed from the shackles and tatters of the old tradition and prejudice, American and European women in music are now universally hailed as important factors in the concert and teaching fields and as … fast developing assets in the creative spheres of the profession.’ This affirmation was made in 1935 by Frédérique Petrides, the Belgian-born female violinist, conductor, teacher and publisher who was a pioneering advocate for women in music. Some 80 years on, it’s gratifying to note how her words have been rewarded with substance in this catalogue of music by women composers. Petrides was able to look back on the foundations laid by those who were well-connected by family name, such as Clara Schumann and Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel, and survey the crop of composers active in her own time, including Louise Talma and Amy Beach in America, Rebecca Clarke and Liza Lehmann in England, Nadia Boulanger in France and Lou Koster in Luxembourg. She could hardly have foreseen, however, the creative explosion in the latter half of the 20th century generated by a whole new raft of female composers – a happy development that continues today. We hope you will enjoy exploring this catalogue that has not only historical depth but a truly international voice, as exemplified in the works of the significant number of 21st-century composers: be it the highly colourful and accessible American chamber music of Jennifer Higdon, the Asian hues of Vivian Fung’s imaginative scores, the ancient-and-modern syntheses of Sofia Gubaidulina, or the hallmark symphonic sounds of the Russian-born Alla Pavlova.
