This month is a very exciting time for us in the co‐sponsorship of the Charles Tournemire conference from October 21‐24. Charles Tournemire was the organist at Sainte‐Clotilde church in Paris from 1898 until his death in 1939, the church where César Franck was the first organist and Jean Langlais the last in this important tradition of improvisation, mysticism, and Gregorian chant; Tournemire was also professor of chamber music at the Paris Conservatory. A great mystic, his music has been little known outside of his famous improvisation on the chant “Victimae paschal.” The title of our conference is “The Aesthetics of Charles Tournemire: Chant and Improvisation in the Liturgy.” You are cordially invited to participate in the sessions which are open to the public. Registration deadline is Friday, September 28 which includes more detailed information on the conference. (Note that AGO members may register a few days after the official deadline.) http://musicasacra.com/tournemire/ (Please see pages 2‐3 for the full conference schedule.) Soli Deo Gloria!

Lewis – Chapter Sub-Dean ([email protected]) Our October meeting takes place Downtown, at the Church of the Epiphany (184 Washington Place, across the street from Chatham Center. Dinner and our business meeting will take place in the palatial undercroft, with a meal prepared by our redoubtable Cindy Bowen. She calls it an Oktoberfest Blow‐Out. The program for the evening is part of the Church Music Association of America’s Tournemire Symposium, going on at Duquesne University that week, of which the Chapter is a proud co‐sponsor. Richard Christopher Spotts, of Doylestown, PA, has made the organ music of Tournemire, and specifically the monumental liturgical cycle, L’Orgue Mystique, his specialty, and is both performing widely from the collection, and completing a magisterial book‐length study of the role of Chant in the cycle. His program will begin with an illustrated lecture on the life of Tournemire, followed by a performance of pieces from L’Orgue Mystique, the latter complemented by the Duquesne University Gregorian Chant Schola, conducted by Sister Agatha Ozah, singing the chants on which the pieces are based. Looking ahead, our program on November 19, at Christ United Methodist October Menu Church in Bethel Park, will be a master‐class with Joan Lippincott. Members Oktoberfest Blow‐Out who would like to be considered to play in that class are asked to be in touch Family‐Style Salad with Rolls & Butter with me by telephone or email as soon as possible, providing both their “Best of the Wurst” name and contact information, and the piece they would like to offer. And it Pulled Pork also isn’t too soon to plan for our January Members’ Recital, for which I Spätzle Romanoff hope the program will feature music by some of this year’s “anniversary” Bavarian‐Style Green Beans composers (those with milestone anniversaries of birth or death in 2013). Chocolate Bavarian Dessert These include Scheidemann, Titelouze, Zachow, Krebs, Pierne, Hindemith, Britten, Elmore, Purvis, and surely others I’ve failed to notice. Please, think about something you might like to play to contribute to this celebration, and let me know.

  • GOLDBERG VARIATIONS - English Suite No
    BHP 901 - BACH: GOLDBERG VARIATIONS - English Suite No. 5 in e - Millicent Silver, Harpsichord _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ This disc, the first in our Heritage Performances Series, celebrates the career and the artistry of Millicent Silver, who for some forty years was well-known as a regular performer in London and on BBC Radio both as soloist and as harpsichordist with the London Harpsichord Ensemble which she founded with her husband John Francis. Though she made very few recordings, we are delighted to preserve this recording of the Goldberg Variations for its musical integrity, its warmth, and particularly the use of tonal dynamics (adding or subtracting of 4’ and 16’ stops to the basic 8’) which enhances the dramatic architecture. Millicent Irene Silver was born in South London on 17 November 1905. Her father, Alfred Silver, had been a boy chorister at St. George’s Chapel, Windsor where his singing attracted the attention of Queen Victoria, who had him give special performances for her. He earned his living playing the violin and oboe. His wife Amelia was an accomplished and busy piano teacher. Millicent was the second of their four children, and her musical talent became evident in time-honoured fashion when she was discovered at the age of three picking out on the family’s piano the tunes she had heard her elder brother practising. Eventually Millicent Silver won a scholarship to the Royal College of Music in London where, as was more common in those days, she studied equally both piano and violin. She was awarded the Chappell Silver Medal for piano playing and, in 1928, the College’s Tagore Gold Medal for the best student of her year.

At least it was greatly enjoyed by those who attended the various events. Structured round the AGM in Great Malvern, the committee were the first to benefit from the hospitality of Lawnside. We met in the Library, passing first the awful warning “No hockey sticks or tennis racquets upstairs” (and we didn’t take any), and we were charmingly escorted round the somewhat confusing grounds and corridors by some of the girls of the school. After a lunch in the drawing room where the famous grand piano on which Elgar & GBS played duets at that first Malvern Festival so long ago, was duly admired (and played on), we went to the main school buildings for the AGM.

His organ tutors included James Lang in Sacramento and Christopher Herrick, Alan Wicks, and Peter Hurford in London. He also studied choral conducting with Paul Hillier at the University of California at Davis, and twice participated in master classes with the legendary conductor Sir David Willcocks. David was recognized by Outstanding Young Men in America in 1986, and received the Trinity Cathedral “Dean’s Award” in 1998. He was also honored by a resolution from the California State Assembly in 2010. His many contributions to the Cathedral and in the Diocese were recognized in January of 2001, when Bishop Jerry Lamb made him an “Honorary Canon” of the Cathedral and Diocese of Northern California. Though once referred to as “The Jimi Hendrix of the pipe organ,” he has never actually set fire to a musical instrument, and was featured in a story “Rock Star Organist” in Sacramento’s Inside magazine in November 2016.
