Tchaikovsky Competition 1982 a Diary by Peter Donohoe1
TCHAIKOVSKY COMPETITION 1982 A DIARY BY PETER DONOHOE1 1 The footnotes in this diary are restrospective notes from 2012 – 30 years later... 08 June 1982 Recital at Charlotte Mason College in Ambleside in the British Lake District Program: Tchaikovsky Sonata 2 in G Major (1st Movement) Tchaikovsky November (from The Seasons) Tippett Sonata 2 Prokofiev Sonata 6 ---- Scriabin Etude Op65/3 Chopin Etude Op10/8 Rachmaninov Etude Tableau Op39/5 E flat Minor Bach Prelude and Fugue Book 2 No. 3 Flierkovsky – Prelude and Fugue in G minor Stravinsky Three Movements from Petrushka A very nice, but knowing guy came up to me after the concert, and said “That was a very unusual program. It is almost as if you are preparing to enter the Tchaikovsky Competition.” I asked him to keep it under his hat – it is never good for people to know in advance of your competition efforts, in case it doesn’t work out. Set off home at 11.00 p.m. The car –a Vauxhall Viva borrowed from my parents-in-law – broke down after about 10 miles of a 120 mile journey to my in-laws on the Wirral. Still in the Lake District countryside. The weather was appallingly wet. I had to get to the Wirral, and then the next morning to Manchester for an early flight to London to connect with the Aeroflot flight to Moscow. 09 June 1982 Thank God for the AA Relay service. They got me to the Wirral in the cab of one of their trucks, with the car on the back. -

Ethan Allen to Guy Carleton, Lord Dorchester, Quebec 16 July 17881
Ethan Allen to Guy Carleton, Lord Dorchester, Quebec 16 July 17881 My Lord. I have the honor of addressing your Lordship, on the subject of American politics, as it may respect the reciprocal interest of Great Britain, and the little rising State of Vermont. Your Lordship is undoubtedly sensible of the Jealousy of the United States over Vermont, since it is not and will not be confederated with them. They proceed so far as to threaten its subjugation, as soon as they have established their new proposed constitution and made their government sufficiently energetic. Their arguements for so doing, (in 1 Printed: Duffy, Allen, I, 273–75. The severely damaged manuscript is in the Henry Stevens Collection in the Vermont State Archives. Allen (1738– 1789), a revolutionary and military leader, was a native of Connecticut. In 1770 he moved with his brothers to the New Hampshire Grants in the Green Mountains, where he formed the Green Mountain Boys to challenge New York’s jurisdiction over the territory. In 1775 he led the Green Mountain Boys in capturing Fort Ticonderoga. The Second Continental Congress gave him command of the Green Mountain Regiment in the Continental Army, but political enemies took the command from him. During the invasion of Canada in 1775, Allen was taken prisoner by the British and endured considerable hardships in prison. In 1778 the British released him, largely through the efforts of his family. From 1778 to 1784 he was commander-in-chief of Vermont’s military forces and political advisor to Governor Thomas Chittenden. From 1778 to 1781 he tried to convince Congress to grant statehood to Vermont; failing in that he sought annexation to the British Empire. -
