EDITORIAL September 1984 .Vol.3.no.6 By the time these words appear the year 1984 will be three parts gone, and most of the musical events which took so long to plan will be pleasant memories. In the Autumn months there are still concerts and lectures to attend, but it must be admitted there is a sense of ‘winding down’. However, the joint meeting with the Delius Society in October is something to be welcomed, and we hope it may be the beginning of an association with other musical societies. -
Welcome to the Summer Season at the RNCM
Sonic art, laser beams and technology ignite our artistic programme, with the first-ever RNCM and Welcome FutureEverything collaboration, creating Tools for Unknown Futures – a festival combining innovative art and performance with new devices, insightful discussion and playful social to the experimentation (28 Mar – 1 Apr). Contrast, social debate and fast-changing Summer politics lie at the core of all of this, permeating our entire Summer programme with Zoe Trope (5 Apr), I Came and I Vanished (27 Apr), Youth Perform’s presentation of the post-WW1 season at socio-political Brecht/Weill collaboration, The Threepenny Opera (23 – 26 Apr), and culminating in the music of the salons and the RNCM concert halls between 1890 – 1900, in our Day of Song at the Royal Exchange Theatre (27 Apr). Opera Scenes are back (27, 29 May, 6, 13 Jun) covering a rich and diverse repertoire and RNCM Opera goes to the Capitol Theatre with a fantastic production of Stephen Sondheim’s Company (25 Jun – 4 Jul) Our International Artist Diploma recitals feature the beautiful tenor voice of Kang Wang in Ludwig van Beethoven’s An die ferne Geliebte (30 Apr), as well as the Zelkova Quartet (13 Jun) with Beethoven and Bartók String Quartets; while Chester Cathedral welcomes our International Artist Diploma Concerto Weekend (5 – 7 Jun) featuring Mozart’s glorious, yet wistful, Piano Concerto in E flat major (Yasmin Rowe), Rossini’s rarely performed Bassoon Concerto in B flat major (Alejandra Rojas), Ibert’s high-spirited, yet lyrical Flute Concerto (Helen Wilson) and Schumann’s spontaneously romantic Cello Concerto in A minor (Mikhail Nemstov). -
