In pursuing its mission to promote the study and appreciation of the organ and other keyboard instruments, the Westfield Center has become a vital public advocate for keyboard instruments and music. By bringing together professionals and an increasingly diverse music audience, the Center has inspired collaborations among organizations nationally and internationally. In 1999 Roger Sherman became Executive Director and developed several new projects for the Westfield Center, including a radio program, The Organ Loft, which is heard by 30,000 listeners in the Pacific 2 Northwest; and a Westfield Concert Scholar program that promotes young keyboard artists with awareness of historical keyboard performance practice through mentorship and concert opportunities. In addition to these programs, the Westfield Center sponsors an annual conference about significant topics in keyboard performance.

  • A Pictoral History of the Boston Music Hall and the Great Organ
    A PICTORIAL HISTORY OF THE BOSTON MUSIC HALL AND THE GREAT ORGAN by Ed Sampson, President, Methuen Memorial Music Hall, Inc. 2018 Few instruments in the history of pipe organs in America have had as long, or as distinguished, a career as the Boston Music Hall Organ. The first concert organ in the country, it remains today one of the outstanding organs in America. The need for a large and centrally-located concert hall for Boston was discussed at the annual meeting of the Harvard Musical Association, founded in 1837 (Henry White Pickering (1811-1898), President) on January 31, 1851. A "Music Hall Committee", comprised of members Robert East Apthorp (1812-1882), George Derby (1819-1874), John Sullivan Dwight (1813-1893), Charles Callahan Perkins (1822-1886), and Dr. Jabez Baxter Upham (1820- 1902), was appointed to address the matter. The Boston Music Hall was built in 1852 by the Boston Music-Hall Association, founded in 1851 (Jabez Baxter Upham, President) and by the Harvard Musical Association, that contributed $100,000 towards its construction. It stood in the center of a block that sloped downward from Tremont Street to Washington Street; and was between Winter Street on the south and Bromfield Street on the north. Almost entirely surrounded by other buildings, only glimpses of the hall's massive granite block foundation and plain brick walls could be seen. There were two entrances to the Music Hall: the Bumstead Place entrance, (named after Thomas Bumstead (1740-1828) a Boston coachmaker), off Tremont Street (later Hamilton Place) opposite the Park Street Church; 1 and the Central Place or Winter Place (later Music Hall Place) entrance off Winter Street.

  • An Historical Timeline of Events Concerning the Boston Music Hall, the "Great Organ" and the Methuen Memorial Music Hall
    AN HISTORICAL TIMELINE OF EVENTS CONCERNING THE BOSTON MUSIC HALL, THE "GREAT ORGAN" AND THE METHUEN MEMORIAL MUSIC HALL 1837 The initial development of the organization that was later to become known as "The Harvard Musical Association" was started by a group of Harvard College graduates in July. As students, these graduates had been members of the Pierian Sodality, established in 1808. The graduates met with some fifty prominent citizens of Boston to form a new society, the chief goals of which were to be "...the promotion of musical taste and science in the University, ...to enrich the walls of Harvard with a complete musical library, ...and to prepare the way for regular musical instruction in the College". The new society was initially known as "The General Association of Past and Present Members of the Pierian Sodality". 1840 The society known as "The General Association of Past and Present Members of the Pierian Sodality" changed its name to "The Harvard Musical Association". 1851 The need for a large and centrally-located concert hall for Boston was discussed at the annual meeting of The Harvard Musical Association on Friday, January 31. A Music Hall Committee, comprised of members Robert E. Apthorp, George Derby, John Sullivan Dwight, Charles Callahan Perkins and Dr. Jabez Baxter Upham, was appointed to address the matter. The Music Hall Committee of The Harvard Musical Association selected a site for the proposed hall in the center of the block bounded by Tremont Street, Washington Street, Winter Street and Bromfield Street in February. The Music Hall Committee of The Harvard Musical Association engaged architect George Snell to draw up plans for the proposed hall in April.

  • On Bach's Rhythm and Tempo
    Ido Abravaya Does tempo, as a variable parameter, conform to any laws; can any general theory on the behaviour of tempo, i.e., its range and modes of change, be formulated? Was the concept of a standardized tempo unit still accepted in On Bach’s Rhythm and Tempo the Baroque? Is the tempo of a given piece directly derived from other parameters, such as its formal, rhythmic and metric structure, distribution of note values and similar factors? Durational strata – a strategy of viewing a composition, or an entire style, through a “cross section” of its various note durations – is offered here. Its clearest example is found in the “Palestrina style”, but a similar phenomenon can be observed also in Baroque styles, which has some repercussions on tempo. Other tempo-determining factors, such as time signatures and tempo words in the music of J. S. Bach are surveyed and compared against tempo theories of Bach’s time, by Quantz and Kirnberger. The conclusions are used in the evaluation and critique of some present-day tempo philoso- On Bach’s Rhythm and Tempo phies. The aim of the present work is not to establish prescriptions for the “right” tempo in Bach’s music, but rather, from the angle of tempo, to gain a perspective on the much broader field of rhythm and rhythmic texture.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Office of Religious Life at Princeton University for allowing us to share their beautiful Chapel and magnificent pipe organ with you this evening. We are deeply blessed by Joan’s lifelong career as a teacher and performer. Through her performances, recordings, and students, she has touched the hearts and stirred the souls of millions of people she will never know. We are forever grateful for her gift of music and her enthusiastic support of the American Guild of Organists. We are also grateful for your support of the AGO—the largest organization of its kind in the world promoting a single musical instrument and the performers and listeners who enjoy organ music—through your gifts to the AGO Endowment Fund this evening. Although many organ degree programs at institutions of higher education are being threatened—even in Princeton—the American Guild of Organists, founded in 1896, is here to stay. Your support of the AGO Endowment Fund helps to ensure that we will. The AGO Endowment Fund secures the future of the Guild through educational programs such as Pipe Organ Encounters that introduce young people to the organ and encourage their study of the instrument.
