Shaw, 2nd Violin The Orchestral Music of Jean Coulthard: A Critical Assessment David Gordon Duke, 1993 Supervisor: Dr. Gordana Lazarevich ABSTRACT During a long and distinguished career, the Canadian composer Jean Coulthard (b. 1908) has become widely recognized for her many works for voice, keyboard, choir and chamber ensembles, Until recently, however, her large and diverse catalogue of works for orchestra has been overshadowed, The present study presents a critical assessment of her orchestral catalogue of music composed from the late 1930s until the present. In a biographical introduction, Coulthard’s initial training with Vaughan Williams in Lo'idon is discussed, as is her life-long identification with the early French modern figures Debussy and Ravel. As her career progressed, her earliest orchestral scores were championed by the Australian-born com­ poser/conductor Arthur Benjamin (who resided in Coulthard’s native Vahcouvcr, Canada, during the formative years of her development as an orchestral composer). Further training brought her into contact with figures such as Copland, Milhaud, Bartdk, and Schoenberg, as well as studies with Bernard Wagenaar in New York. Following her protracted apprenticeship, Coulthard began to teach at the University of British Columbia and to commit to the major genres of orchestral writing, In this later respect she was somewhat atypical of Canadian composers of her generation, and has been viewed by earlier scholars as an exponent c.'the "conservative tradition" in Canadian music of the 20th century, More recent perspectives stress the quality of her work, her regional significance, and the uniqueness of her achievement in a field of music not traditionally associated with women. Paralleling Coulthard’s personal and artistic development, a consideration of Canadian orchestras and the emergence of a Canadian orchestral repertoire is presented. Coulthard’s orchestral repertoire includes orchestral suites, small settle orchestra compositions, works for strings, works for soloist(s) and orchestra, concert!, and symphonies, A comprehensive overview of Coulthard’s extant orchestral works is presented, with a number of particularly important compositions singled out for detailed analysis. As well major style elements, aspects of Coulthard’s role in Canadian music and a brief assessment of her creative personality are included.

By the time I enrolled in the music department of the University of British Columbia I had heard several Coulthard compositions and often seen tier et concert performances. As an undergraduate increasingly interested in composition and musicology, it was not a matter of course that I would have the opportunity to study with Coulthard herself (see Chapter 2), but in the fall of 1969 I found myself assigned to h^r 20th century theory class.

  • Helmut Kallmann (1922-2012): a Memoir
    HELMUT KALLMANN (1922-2012): A MEMOIR BY MARIA CALDERISI Anyone can read the brief biographical notes on Helmut Kallmann in the Encyclopedia of Music in Canada and in other published sources, and be amazed by the length and breadth of his writings as listed in Musical Canada: Words and Music Honouring Helmut Kallmann, the festschrift edited by John Beckwith and Frederick A. Hall and published by the University of Toronto Press in 1988. But I like to think that it is in the hearts and memories of those who came to know this gentle, modest man by working with him and sharing with him his interest and passion for keeping the record, for collecting and preserving Canada’s musical heritage, that Helmut Kallmann’s spirit lives on. Elsewhere in this issue you have an overview of his activities and achievements, along with several testimonials and personal stories. So I shall limit myself to my own experiences shared with him or directly resulting from his encouragement and support. First of all, I would not have become a music librarian had it not been for Dr. Kallmann, as he was most respectfully called by most of his directors and co-workers at the National Library of Canada. Near the end of my belated music studies at McGill in1972, my favourite professor—after whom McGill’s Marvin Duchow Music Library is now named—had dropped the idea of librarianship in my ear. Various enquiries led me to Ottawa to ask Helmut what he thought about the future of music librarianship in Canada. Based on his prognosis I enrolled in a specialized Master’s programme at the University of Michigan, and, by the time I graduated in 1973, Helmut had convinced the National Library that he needed a reference librarian to attend to the increasing demands upon the Music Division, then only three years old.

Introduction to Focus 2020 by Joel Sachs The seed for this year’s Focus Festival was planted in December 2018 at a Juilliard doctoral recital by the Chilean violist Sergio Muñoz Leiva. I was especially struck by the sonata of Rebecca Clarke, an Anglo-American composer of the early 20th century who has been known largely by that one piece, now a staple of the viola repertory. Thinking about the challenges she faced in establishing her credibility as a professional composer, my mind went to a group of women in that period, roughly 1885 to 1930, who struggled to be accepted as professional composers rather than as professional performers writing as a secondary activity or as amateur composers.

  • CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE CANADIAN MUSIC SINCE 1940: a QUESTION of NATIONALISM a Thesis Submitted in Partial Satis
    CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE CANADIAN MUSIC SINCE 1940: A QUESTION OF NATIONALISM A Thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music by Ronald Frederick Erin August, 1983 J:lhe Thesis of Ronald Frederick Erin is approved: California StD. te Universi tJr, Northridge ii PREFACE This thesis represents a survey of Canadian music since 1940 within the conceptual framework of 'nationalism'. By this selec- tive approach, it does not represent a conclusive view of Canadian music nor does this paper wish to ascribe national priorities more importance than is due. However, Canada has a unique relationship to the question of nationalism. All the arts, including music, have shared in the convolutions of national identity. The rela- tionship between music and nationalism takes on great significance in a country that has claimed cultural independence only in the last 40 years. Therefore, witnessed by Canadian critical res- ponse, the question of national identity in music has become an important factor. \ In utilizing a national focus, I have attempted to give a progressive, accumulative direction to the six chapters covered in this discussion. At the same time, I have attempted to make each chapter self-contained, in order to increase the paper's effective- ness as a reference tool. If the reader wishes to refer back to information on the CBC's CRI-SM record label or the Canadian League of Composers, this informati6n will be found in Chapter IV. Simi- larly, work employing Indian texts will be found in Chapter V. Therefore, a certain amount of redundancy is unavoidable when interconnecting various components.
