  • The Reception History of Antonio Vivaldi in Eighteenth-Century Britain and Ireland
    Sydney Undergraduate Journal of Musicology Vol. 7, December 2017 The Reception History of Antonio Vivaldi in Eighteenth-Century Britain and Ireland ANNABEL GOODMAN The reception history of Antonio Vivaldi states that, despite his initial widespread popularity, the composer’s music fell out of fashion in the last years of his life only to be revived during the twentieth century. This is, of course, a massive generalisation. The idea that Vivaldi’s music fell out of popularity by the time of his death in 1741 is more a reflection of the composer’s reception history in his native Venice than of his reception across Europe, where his music continued to be heard across French, German, and British cultures. Compared to the composer’s presence in Italy, however, Vivaldi’s reception history in these other European cultures has received less scholarly attention. This is particularly the case for Vivaldi’s reception history in Britain and Ireland. Vivaldi’s musical presence and reception in Britain and Ireland can be traced back to the eighteenth century, when the composer’s music was at its most popular, not only in Britain and Ireland, but also across Europe. However, despite Vivaldi’s music falling out of performing repertoires in the nineteenth century, his name is still mentioned in primary sources, namely British and Irish newspapers. London was, of course, the heart and centre of British musical culture during these times. Ireland, although not part of Great Britain, was influenced by Britain musically, especially when it came to Vivaldi. This is likely because Dublin could be considered a secondary art music capital next to London, with many violinists — including Francesco Geminiani and his student Matthew Debourg, an avid player of Vivaldi’s concertos — travelling to both London and Dublin.1 However, there were some clear cultural differences between England and Ireland, with a notable disparity being Dublin’s smaller cultural influence and size compared to London.

  • Download the Program Notes
    Visions and Voyages: Canada 1663–1763 PROGRAM NOTES By Alison Mackay Visions and Voyages is Tafelmusik’s contribution to the national activities commemorating the 150th anniversary of Canada’s Confederation in 1867. In order to feature some of the most beautiful music in our core repertoire, we have chosen to explore the century between 1663, when Quebec was established by Louis XIV as a royal province of France, and 1763, when North America came under the control of the British crown. A new & accurate map of the islands of Newfoundland, Cape Breton, St. John and Anticosta; together with the neighbouring countries of Nova Scotia, Canada, &c. Emanuel Bowen [London, W. Innys, 1752]. Library of Congress Geography and Map Division, Washington, D.C. This century saw the flowering of secular music by Purcell, Handel, Lully, Marais, and Rameau, much of it written for monarchs who gained prosperity and prestige from their Canadian colonies. Instrumental works by these composers provide the musical portion of Visions and Voyages. Diaries, letters, archival records, ships’ manifests, account books, and religious mission reports called “Relations” provide rich details about life in Canada at this time, and much of the material for the spoken narration of the concert is taken from them. These sources often reveal a dark picture of European attitudes to the first inhabitants of Canada, and set the stage for the crushing of Native cultures and the establishment of residential schools which came with Confederation and the establishment of the Indian Act. Seeking an expression of life in Canada before European contact, we have turned to the beautiful writing of the poet and scholar Armand Garnet Ruffo (photo, left), a band member of the Fox Lake Chapleau Cree First Nation and a citizen of the Ojibwe nation.

  • Correnti Della Storia
    CORRENTI DELLA STORIA DOMENICO SCARLATTI (1685-1757) November’s essay deals with the life of the composer, Domenico Scarlatti, one of the most famous Baroque composers, who spent much of his life in the service of the Portuguese and Spanish royal families. Chronologically, he is classified as a Baroque composer, although his music was influential in the development of the Classical style and he was one of the few Baroque composers able to transition into the Classical period. Like his renowned father, Alessandro Scarlatti, he composed in a variety of musical forms, although today he is known primarily for his 555 keyboard sonatas, which substantially expanded the technical and musical possibilities of the harpsichord. Giuseppe Domenico Scarlatti was born in Naples on October 26, 1685 (this past Oct. 26 was the 331st anniversary of his birth), the same year as Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel. He was the sixth of ten children of the composer and teacher Alessandro Scarlatti. Domenico’s older brother Pietro Filippo Scarlatti was also a musician. Domenico most likely studied music first under his father. Other composers who were his early teachers were Gaetano Greco and Francesco Gasparini, both of whom influenced his musical style. In 1701, just before his 16th birthday, he was appointed composer and organist at the royal chapel in Naples where his father was Maestro di Cappella. In 1704, he revised Carlo Francesco Pollaro- lo’s opera Irene for performance at the Teatro San Bartolomeo in Velasco’s portrait (1739) Naples. His father soon recognized that his son’s fascination with commemorating the dubbing of Scarlatti the harpsichord would need nurturing in an artistic climate more into the Order of Santiago on April 21, 1738 by King John V of Portugal.
