  • Navigating, Coping & Cashing In
    The RECORDING Navigating, Coping & Cashing In Maze November 2013 Introduction Trying to get a handle on where the recording business is headed is a little like trying to nail Jell-O to the wall. No matter what side of the business you may be on— producing, selling, distributing, even buying recordings— there is no longer a “standard operating procedure.” Hence the title of this Special Report, designed as a guide to the abundance of recording and distribution options that seem to be cropping up almost daily thanks to technology’s relentless march forward. And as each new delivery CONTENTS option takes hold—CD, download, streaming, app, flash drive, you name it—it exponentionally accelerates the next. 2 Introduction At the other end of the spectrum sits the artist, overwhelmed with choices: 4 The Distribution Maze: anybody can (and does) make a recording these days, but if an artist is not signed Bring a Compass: Part I with a record label, or doesn’t have the resources to make a vanity recording, is there still a way? As Phil Sommerich points out in his excellent overview of “The 8 The Distribution Maze: Distribution Maze,” Part I and Part II, yes, there is a way, or rather, ways. But which Bring a Compass: Part II one is the right one? Sommerich lets us in on a few of the major players, explains 11 Five Minutes, Five Questions how they each work, and the advantages and disadvantages of each. with Three Top Label Execs In “The Musical America Recording Surveys,” we confirmed that our readers are both consumers and makers of recordings.

Bieito’s continued association with the company shows ENO’s commitment to highly theatrical and new interpretations of core repertoire. Following the success of his Carmen at ENO in 2012, described by The Guardian as ‘a cogent, gripping piece of work’, Bieito’s production of Fidelio comes to the London Coliseum after its 2010 premiere in Munich. Working with designer Rebecca Ringst, Bieito presents a vast Escher-like labyrinth set, symbolising the powerfully claustrophobic nature of the opera. Edward Gardner, ENO’s highly acclaimed Music Director, 2013 Olivier Award-nominee and recipient of an OBE for services to music, conducts an outstanding cast led by Stuart Skelton singing Florestan and Emma Bell as Leonore. Since his definitive performance of Peter Grimes at ENO, Skelton is now recognised as one of the finest heldentenors of his generation, appearing at the world’s major opera houses, including the Metropolitan Opera, New York, and Opéra National de Paris.

For those who have experienced a chapel service at RHS or witnessed the School’s marching band on Divisions, you will have some appreciation of how important music is to the pupils and to the key events in the school year. The positive benefits of music are well-documented - 2019 from improving well-being and bolstering the immune system, to developing co-ordination. For many of our / pupils it is a valuable counterbalance to the pressures 20 of work and a chance to build friendships through the collaborative nature of making music. This year the programme looks as rich as it is broad, providing opportunities not only for members of the School but also for wider participation. Highlights this year include the welcome return of the award-winning singer Matt Ford, to sing with the Chris Ingham Trio and the RHS Big Band. The joint concert with the British Army Band and the RHS Concert Band in February should also raise the roof! There is also a performance of Verdi’s Requiem with the RHS Chapel Choir, Holbrook Choral Society and the Ipswich Choral Society. Later in the year we present a semi-staged performance of one of the greatest English operas ever written, Dido and Aeneas; and an afternoon of fun and laughter with our annual Come and Sing event, featuring songs from a number of Disney classics.
