  • A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company
    A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company Sally Elizabeth Drew A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Arts and Humanities Department of Music This work was supported by the Arts & Humanities Research Council September 2018 1 2 Abstract This thesis examines the working culture of the Decca Record Company, and how group interaction and individual agency have made an impact on the production of music recordings. Founded in London in 1929, Decca built a global reputation as a pioneer of sound recording with access to the world’s leading musicians. With its roots in manufacturing and experimental wartime engineering, the company developed a peerless classical music catalogue that showcased technological innovation alongside artistic accomplishment. This investigation focuses specifically on the contribution of the recording producer at Decca in creating this legacy, as can be illustrated by the career of Christopher Raeburn, the company’s most prolific producer and specialist in opera and vocal repertoire. It is the first study to examine Raeburn’s archive, and is supported with unpublished memoirs, private papers and recorded interviews with colleagues, collaborators and artists. Using these sources, the thesis considers the history and functions of the staff producer within Decca’s wider operational structure in parallel with the personal aspirations of the individual in exerting control, choice and authority on the process and product of recording. Having been recruited to Decca by John Culshaw in 1957, Raeburn’s fifty-year career spanned seminal moments of the company’s artistic and commercial lifecycle: from assisting in exploiting the dramatic potential of stereo technology in Culshaw’s Ring during the 1960s to his serving as audio producer for the 1990 The Three Tenors Concert international phenomenon.

Since its foundation in 1441 by the 19-year-old King Henry VI, choral services in the Chapel, sung by this choir, have been a fundamental part of life in the College. Through the centuries, people from across Cambridge, the UK and, more recently, the world have listened to the Choir at these services. Despite its deep roots in musical history, King’s has always been at the forefront of technological innovation. In 2012 it created its ‘impeccable’ record label to capture some of the rich heritage of the College, to feature not only the Choir and other resident musicians, but also its prestigious alumni. This recording features two alumni of King’s: Christopher Seaman (conductor, Cello Concerto), a graduate of King’s, and Guy Johnston (soloist, Cello Concerto), a former Chorister. 2 HERBERT HOWELLS AN ENGLISH MASS The Choir of King’s College, Cambridge Britten Sinfonia Stephen Cleobury conductor Ben Parry assistant conductor TE DEUM AND MAGNIFICAT The Choir of King’s College, Cambridge King’s Voices ‘COLLEGIUM REGALE’ Britten Sinfonia Stephen Cleobury conductor CELLO CONCERTO Guy Johnston cello Britten Sinfonia Christopher Seaman conductor ORGAN WORKS Stephen Cleobury organ 3 CD 1 48:58 1 TE DEUM (COLLEGIUM REGALE) 8:53 AN ENGLISH MASS 2 I Kyrie 5:42 3 II Credo * 8:41 4 III Sursum corda 0:58 5 IV Sanctus 2:50 6 V Benedictus 4:13 7 VI Agnus Dei 3:35 8 VII Gloria 9:09 9 MAGNIFICAT (COLLEGIUM REGALE) | orch.

    800 pupils will unite at Snape Maltings for this year’s Big Sing Across the county (and the country!) schools have been learning this year’s collection of Friday Afternoons songs. Each year, Aldeburgh Music commissions new songs for the project, and this year American composer Nico Muhly has written a set of eight songs that can be sung year round, culminating with performances all over the world on Friday 20 November 2015. Inspired by Benjamin Britten, Friday Afternoons is a quality resource for children and young people, enabling them to explore singing as composer, performer and listener. All scores, lyrics, audio tracks and interactive resources from Charanga Music can be downloaded for free from the Friday Afternoons website. Are you singing? On Friday 20 November approximately round 800 school children will gather in Snape Maltings Concert Hall to learn and sing a collection of Friday Afternoons songs for the Big Sing event. This day will also present the premiere performance of the winning composition of this year’s Britten Young Songwriter Competition. Are any of your pupils budding composers? In June, schools across the county participated in the Suffolk County Music Service’s Whole Class Ensemble Teaching Celebration, where they worked on From A Railway Carriage with Tracey Rayner (Suffolk County Music Service), Megan Peel (Aldeburgh Music) and other County Music Service tutors. You can take a look at the Suffolk County Music Service Flickr to see photos from this event. Tracey Rayner, Senior Vocal Tutor for the Suffolk County Music Service said: “The Friday Afternoons project has made available, free of charge, three separate sets of songs with backing tracks, sheet music, lyrics sheets, and, in some cases, interactive whiteboard teaching resources.

  • Over 100 Opera Makers
    #OPERAHARMONY CREATING OPERAS IN ISOLATION 1 3 WELCOME TO #OPERA HARMONY FROM FOUNDER – ELLA MARCHMENT Welcome to #OperaHarmony. #Opera Harmony is a collection of opera makers from across the world who, during this time of crisis, formed an online community to create new operas. I started this initiative when the show that I was rehearsing at Dutch National Opera was cancelled because of the lockdown. Using social media and online platforms I invited colleagues worldwide to join me in the immense technical and logistical challenge of creating new works online. I set the themes of ‘distance’ and ‘community’, organised artist teams, and since March have been overseeing the creation of twenty new operas. All the artists involved in #OperaHarmony are highly skilled professionals who typically apply their talents in creating live theatre performances. Through this project, they have had to adapt to working in a new medium, as well as embracing new technologies and novel ways of creating, producing, and sharing work. #OperaHarmony’s goal was to bring people together in ways that were unimaginable prior to Covid-19. Over 100 artists from all the opera disciplines have collaborated to write, stage, record, and produce the new operas. The pieces encapsulate an incredibly dark period for the arts, and they are a symbol of the unstoppable determination, and community that exists to perform and continue to create operatic works. This has been my saving grace throughout lockdown, and it has given all involved a sense of purpose. When we started building these works we had no idea how they would eventually be realised, and it is with great thanks that we acknowledge the support of Opera Vision in helping to both distribute and disseminate these pieces, and also for establishing a means in which audiences can be invited into the heart of the process too .
