  • Autumn September - December 2016 Welcome to Our Autumn Season Programme!
    Autumn September - December 2016 Welcome to our Autumn Season Programme! There are two strong themes to this season’s programme, and the first is MUSIC! We start off in September with the brilliant Keith James with his take on the music of Cat Stevens; and the return of the brilliant Remi Harris. October brings a contrast of light classical from The Borders Trio and the jazz/folk fusion of The Rowan. Then in November The Budapest Café Orchestra is back, followed later in the month by some brilliant folk from The Gloucestershire Invasion. And it’s into December with the fantastic Moscow Drug Club with their hot renditions from 1930’s Berlin through nuevo tango to gypsy campfire! No Ledbury Christmas would be the same without the Ledbury Community Choir’s Christmas Concert; but this year you are spoilt because Ledbury Community Brass Band are also going to be performing a Christmas concert! And the second theme? Well that would be drama! LADS has three shows in the programme, a reprise, again in The Master’s House, of The Visit - which was sold out when performed in April; Emily Brontë’s great classic, Wuthering Heights; and of course in January the famous LADS’ panto which will be a fabulous Cinderella. Other companies visiting the Theatre are Suitcase Theatre’s Picasso’s Women, Frome Valley Community Players with A Christmas Carol, and at the beginning of September a showcase of new local writing in For One Night Only. We have two professional companies coming too: ajtc in conjunction with The Nottingham Playhouse present a superb play The Underground Man – some of you will remember being in the sell-out audience when ajtc toured On A Black Hill to Ledbury a few years ago.

  • Paradigmatic of Folk Music Tradition?
    ‘Fiddlers’ Tunebooks’ - Vernacular Instrumental Manuscript Sources 1860-c1880: Paradigmatic of Folk Music Tradition? By: Rebecca Emma Dellow 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 June 2018 2 Abstract Fiddlers’ Tunebooks are handwritten manuscript books preserving remnants of a largely amateur, monophonic, instrumental practice. These sources are vastly under- explored academically, reflecting a wider omission in scholarship of instrumental music participated in by ‘ordinary’ people in nineteenth-century England. The tunebooks generate interest amongst current folk music enthusiasts, and as such can be subject to a “burden of expectation”,1 in the belief that they represent folk music tradition. Yet both the concepts of tradition and folk music are problematic. By considering folk music from both an inherited perspective and a modern scholarly interpretation, this thesis examines the place of the tunebooks in notions of English folk music tradition. A historical musicological methodology is applied to three post-1850 case-study manuscripts drawing specifically on source studies, archival research and quantitative analysis. The study explores compilers’ demographic traits and examines content, establishing the existence of a heterogeneous repertoire copied from contemporary textual sources directly into the tunebooks. This raises important questions regarding the role played by publishers and the concept of continuous survival in notions of tradition. A significant finding reveals the interaction between aural and literate practices, having important implications in the inward and outward transmission and in wider historical application. The function of both the manuscripts and the musical practice is explored and the compilers’ acquisition of skill and sources is examined.
