  • The Australian Symphony of the 1950S: a Preliminary Survey
    The Australian Symphony of the 1950s: A Preliminary survey Introduction The period of the 1950s was arguably Australia’s ‘Symphonic decade’. In 1951 alone, 36 Australian symphonies were entries in the Commonwealth Jubilee Symphony Competition. This music is largely unknown today. Except for six of the Alfred Hill symphonies, arguably the least representative of Australian composition during the 1950s and a short Sinfonietta- like piece by Peggy Glanville-Hicks, the Sinfonia da Pacifica, no Australian symphony of the period is in any current recording catalogue, or published in score. No major study or thesis to date has explored the Australian symphony output of the 1950s. Is the neglect of this large repertory justified? Writing in 1972, James Murdoch made the following assessment of some of the major Australian composers of the 1950s. Generally speaking, the works of the older composers have been underestimated. Hughes, Hanson, Le Gallienne and Sutherland, were composing works at least equal to those of the minor English composers who established sizeable reputations in their own country.i This positive evaluation highlights the present state of neglect towards Australian music of the period. Whereas recent recordings and scores of many second-ranking British and American composers from the period 1930-1960 exist, almost none of the larger works of Australians Robert Hughes, Raymond Hanson, Dorian Le Gallienne and their contemporaries are heard today. This essay has three aims: firstly, to show how extensive symphonic composition was in Australia during the 1950s, secondly to highlight the achievement of the main figures in this movement and thirdly, to advocate the restoration and revival of this repertory.

    THE BOURBAKI ENSEMBLE light and dark: music for strings Witold Lutos lawski Musique Fun`ebre Bernard Herrmann Prelude to Psycho Michael Berkeley Coronach Greg van der Struik Trombone Concerto Graeme Koehne Divertissement Joan Trimble Suite for Strings Greg van der Struik, trombone David Angell, conductor 2.45 pm, Sunday 22 April 2018 St. Stephen’s Church, Newtown Welcome to the first Bourbaki concert for 2018! Our pro- gramme contrasts works expressing darkness, grief and horror with compositions of a much lighter character. In the for- mer category, Michael Berkeley’s Coronach, evoking a High- land lament, and Lutos lawski’s Funeral Music in memory of Bart´ok; also, the opening titles from Alfred Hitchcock’s classic Psycho, the music written by Bernard Herrmann. In a gen- tler vein, we present Irish composer Joan Trimble’s enchanting Suite for Strings, and Graeme Koehne’s (mostly) light–hearted Divertissement. To complete the programme, we are delighted to welcome back leading Sydney trombonist Greg van der Struik for his third appearance as soloist and composer with Bourbaki. We are sure that you will enjoy the varied moods of Greg’s recently written concerto. There will be two further Bourbaki concerts this year. The next, to be given on Sunday 5 August, will be another pro- gramme of contrasts: music by P¯eteris Vasks and Betty Beath conveying the suffering of war is juxtaposed with works by Carl St. Jacques (a member of the Bourbaki Ensemble) and Arvo P¨art praying for peace. We hope to be joined by a choir for the P¨art piece – watch this space.

Each month, from February to November, we explore a text in a lively masterclass environment, guided by internationally renowned academics and industry experts. In 2018, we celebrate the 200th anniversary of Shelley’s classic gothic novel Frankenstein; explore the re-working of Chaucer’s epic poem, Trolius and Criseyde and Joyce’s re-working of Homer’s Ulysses; we will unpack Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar with the associate director of Bell Shakespeare; assess Tennessee William’s Cat on a Hot Tin Roof; confront several controversial political works including Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four and Arendt’s Eichmann in Jerusalem: a report on the banality of evil; we will debate the revolutionary social commentary of Swift’s A Modest Proposal and Las Casas’ sixteenth century indictment of Spanish colonialism, A Short Account of the Destruction of the Indies. Our Australian text is Patrick White’s novel about a doomed nineteenth century expedition into the outback: Voss.
