  • Leonie Scott-Matthews Appointed an OBE for Work on Pentameters Theatre and Services to Hampstead
    New Year's Honours: Leonie Scott-Matthews appointed an OBE for work on Pentameters Theatre and services to Hampstead PUBLISHED: 22:30 27 December 2019 | UPDATED: 16:57 28 December 2019 Harry Taylor Leonie Scott-Matthews, who founded Pentameters Theatre in 1968 and has run it ever since, has been given the gong for services to British Theatre and services to the community in Hampstead. The 78-year-old, who has lived in the area since 1961, said she was "over the moon" at the news. She said: "Always doing things my way, the alternative way, it can be quite isolating. You think 'Am I right, or am I wrong?'. I've done it in a unique way, single handedly. "We've had our ups and downs in the 51 years we've run it, with no financial aid, but we've made it work." Ms Scott-Matthews started the theatre after holding poetry sessions in the cellar of the Freemasons Arms in Downshire Hill. She then held performances in a temporary home in the former Haverstock Tavern, before making the final move to Pentameters home above the Horseshoe Pub in Heath Street where it has remained ever since. She lives a stone's throw away with her partner Godfrey Old, with whom she has a 31-year-old daughter, Alice. She grew up in Mapperley near Nottingham before escaping to the bright lights of London and the Royal Academy of Music and Drama in the 1960s. She said: "When I was in drama school in the early 1960s I fell in love with Hampstead.

Thoughts, no, not thoughts. Profounds of mind. Buried in who knows what profounds of mind. Of mindlessness. Whither no light can reach. Samuel Beckett iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Signature Page ii Dedication iii Abstract v Introduction 1 Chapter One 5 Belacqua Real and Imagined Chapter Two 23 Rapture: The Balcony of the Soul Chapter Three 39 Typos: The Footprint of the Creator Chapter Four 56 Rapture II: The Treacherous Moon Chapter Five 70 Dark Paradise Works Cited 82 Works Consulted 85 iv ABSTRACT DARK PARADISE: RAPTURE AND TYPOS IN DANTE AND BECKETT By Robert Lynn Newton Master of Arts in Theatre The intertextuality of Dante and Beckett is examined through the use of dramatic contrasts of light and dark. Rapture represents sentient light, derived from Dante’s study of Aristotle, Ptolemy, and Avicenna. Its opposite Typos is a material form that cancels the light, casts a shadow, or leaves a signature of the creator on the face of creation. Characters in Beckett’s Happy Days, and the stories “Ding-Dong” and “Dante and the Lobster” present manifestations of Dante’s Beatrice figure centered in the attributes of facial expressions as a sign of Rapture.

  • Roger Quilter
    ROGER QUILTER 1877-1953 HIS LIFE, TIMES AND MUSIC by VALERIE GAIL LANGFIELD A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Music School of Humanities The University of Birmingham February 2004 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT Roger Quilter is best known for his elegant and refined songs, which are rooted in late Victorian parlour-song, and are staples of the English artsong repertoire. This thesis has two aims: to explore his output beyond the canon of about twenty-five songs which overshadows the rest of his work; and to counter an often disparaging view of his music, arising from his refusal to work in large-scale forms, the polished assurance of his work, and his education other than in an English musical establishment. These aims are achieved by presenting biographical material, which places him in his social and musical context as a wealthy, upper-class, Edwardian gentleman composer, followed by an examination of his music. Various aspects of his solo and partsong œuvre are considered; his incidental music for the play Where the Rainbow Ends and its contribution to the play’s West End success are examined fully; a chapter on his light opera sheds light on his collaborative working practices, and traces the development of the several versions of the work; and his piano, instrumental and orchestral works are discussed within their function as light music.

  • St. Cecilia Chamber Choir's Lively Performance Celebrates Spring Review
    Wednesday, May 02, 2012 St. Cecilia Chamber Choir's Lively Performance Celebrates Spring Review By Kim Fletcher Wednesday, May 02, 2012 It was a perfect day when the St. Cecilia Chamber Choir joined their beautiful voices together to "Celebrate Spring" in their second performance of the weekend at the First Congregational Church in Camden April 29. Lincoln County concertgoers enjoyed their first program at the Second Congregational Church in Newcastle April 28. Directed by Linda Blanchard with Sean Fleming on the church's outstanding organ and piano, the performance was stirring and had some surprises, too. Kudos goes to Blanchard in her never failing to please selections - wonderful to hear and challenging to sing. She also gives hands-up to rising artists, particularly locals when she offers a place in the alto section to a young vocalist, this time to Lincoln Academy 2011 graduate, Olivia DeLisle. She also seeks out local talented composers, most notably and most often Richard Francis and for this concert, an absolutely beautiful piece by Todd Monsell, set to the poetry of Robert Frost. Francis' lovely contribution, "For Winter's Ruins and Rains Are Over" came back-to-back with Monsell's "A Prayer in Spring," and were stirring highlights of the first act, (aside from a personal favorite, "Jerusalem" by C. Hubert Parry, arranged by Maurice Jacobson). Blanchard also deserves a particular nod for presenting seldom-heard works, "Three Shakespeare Songs," by Vaughan Williams, and "Shakespeare Songs, Book III," featuring a solo by DeLisle, by composer Matthew Harris. Arguably the supreme poet, Shakespeare's verse and sonnets have inspired many composers most often for solo singers, which makes Williams' beautiful offerings for choirs particularly wonderful.
