  • The Inspiration Behind Compositions for Clarinetist Frederick Thurston
    THE INSPIRATION BEHIND COMPOSITIONS FOR CLARINETIST FREDERICK THURSTON Aileen Marie Razey, B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 201 8 APPROVED: Kimberly Cole Luevano, Major Professor Warren Henry, Committee Member John Scott, Committee Member John Holt, Chair of the Division of Instrumental Studies Benjamin Brand, Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music John Richmond, Dean of the College of Music Victor Prybutok, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Razey, Aileen Marie. The Inspiration behind Compositions for Clarinetist Frederick Thurston. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), August 2018, 86 pp., references, 51 titles. Frederick Thurston was a prominent British clarinet performer and teacher in the first half of the 20th century. Due to the brevity of his life and the impact of two world wars, Thurston’s legacy is often overlooked among clarinetists in the United States. Thurston’s playing inspired 19 composers to write 22 solo and chamber works for him, none of which he personally commissioned. The purpose of this document is to provide a comprehensive biography of Thurston’s career as clarinet performer and teacher with a complete bibliography of compositions written for him. With biographical knowledge and access to the few extant recordings of Thurston’s playing, clarinetists may gain a fuller understanding of Thurston’s ideal clarinet sound and musical ideas. These resources are necessary in order to recognize the qualities about his playing that inspired composers to write for him and to perform these works with the composers’ inspiration in mind. Despite the vast list of works written for and dedicated to Thurston, clarinet players in the United States are not familiar with many of these works, and available resources do not include a complete listing.

  • Richard Adeney 1920–2010 Tributes to the Great British Player
    Richard Adeney 1920–2010 Tributes to the great British player Richard Adeney 25 January 1920–16 December 2010. ichard Adeney was one of the finest flute players of the twentieth century. In a long and distinguished orchestral career he was first flute in the London RPhilharmonic Orchestra, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and the English Chamber Orchestra, and appeared as a freelancer with many others. As a chamber musician he was a founder member of the Melos Ensemble, and he was a popular soloist and recording artist. Richard Adeney was born into a family of artists. His father, Bernard Adeney, had a short-lived marriage with his fellow artist Thérèse Lessore. When this marriage Richard Adeney at the age ended he introduced her to his friend Walter Sickert, who married her. Richard’s of eighty in 2000. mother, Noël, was an artist and textile designer. ‘I was named after that crackpot, the painter known early on as Walter Sickert, but later preferring to be called by his second name, Richard,’ he wrote. Adeney took up the flute at Bryanston School in Dorset and later studied at the Royal College of Music. When the Second World War broke out he applied for and, to his surprise, received conscientious objector status, which left him free to pursue a playing career. His earliest recordings were made on 78 RPM discs, and he participated in countless recordings on LPs, as a member of orchestras and chamber ensembles and as a soloist. His recordings with the Melos Ensemble of Debussy’s Sonate for flute, viola and harp and Ravel’s Introduction and Allegro remain for many the favourite performance of these works.

  • War Requiem - World Prem,Ere - B R·Tt I E N PACO 166 in May 1962 Coventry Hosted an Arts Festival to Mark the Consecration of a New Cathedral
    [[]COMPACT • 0 ~:~~! Britten ., War Requiem - World Prem,ere - b r·tt I e n PACO 166 In May 1962 Coventry hosted an arts festival to mark the consecration of a new cathedral. The - medieval cathedral, and large parts of the surrounding city, had been very bad ly damaged during an air raid on 14 November 1940. Rather than attempt to rebuild it, the she ll of the old cathedral was war requiem left as a symbol of the destruction caused by war (the ru in is one of Coventry's most notable tourist nocturne · our hunting fathers I attractions today), and a new building was built nearby. Notable British composers were ~.i.. 1' commissioned to produce new works for the arts festival. Arthur Bliss's The Beatitudes was heard on ./ ~· 25 May, Michael Tippett's King Priam on 29 May and Benjamin Britten's War Requiem the following [l] day. The War Requiem intertwines the traditional Latin mass with the poems of Wilfred Owen who died in the last week of the First World War. Britten wrote the piece for large orchestra and choir, plus a chamber orchestra, a soprano soloist singing in Latin and tenor and baritone soloists performing Owen's poetry. As a noted pacifist (he had spent the war years in the USA) Britten used the opportunity to make a profound statement about the futility and brutality of war. Even before he had written the music Britten asked German baritone Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau to partner Peter Pears as tenor soloist as a sign of reconciliation. Coventry had forged lasting links with cities that were also heavily bombed during the war (it is twinned with Dresden, Stalingrad, Warsaw, and Caen among others) and Germany had provided some funding towards the new cathedral.
