  • AWAR of INDIVIDUALS: Bloomsbury Attitudes to the Great
    2 Bloomsbury What were the anti-war feelings chiefly expressed outside ‘organised’ protest and not under political or religious banners – those attitudes which form the raison d’être for this study? As the Great War becomes more distant in time, certain actions and individuals become greyer and more obscure whilst others seem to become clearer and imbued with a dash of colour amid the sepia. One thinks particularly of the so-called Bloomsbury Group.1 Any overview of ‘alter- native’ attitudes to the war must consider the responses of Bloomsbury to the shadows of doubt and uncertainty thrown across page and canvas by the con- flict. Despite their notoriety, the reactions of the Bloomsbury individuals are important both in their own right and as a mirror to the similar reactions of obscurer individuals from differing circumstances and backgrounds. In the origins of Bloomsbury – well known as one of the foremost cultural groups of the late Victorian and Edwardian periods – is to be found the moral and aesthetic core for some of the most significant humanistic reactions to the war. The small circle of Cambridge undergraduates whose mutual appreciation of the thoughts and teachings of the academic and philosopher G.E. Moore led them to form lasting friendships, became the kernel of what would become labelled ‘the Bloomsbury Group’. It was, as one academic described, ‘a nucleus from which civilisation has spread outwards’.2 This rippling effect, though tem- porarily dammed by the keenly-felt constrictions of the war, would continue to flow outwards through the twentieth century, inspiring, as is well known, much analysis and interpretation along the way.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Volume One of the Frederick Delius
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Volume One of the Frederick Delius Songbook to be Released in the United States this September ASHFORD, CONNECTICUT (August 22, 2011) – In honor of the 150th anniversary of the birth of the great English composer Frederick Delius (1862-1934), The Complete Delius Songbook – Volume 1 will be released as a CD in the U.S. on September 13, 2011. This is the first volume in a two-volume series that will comprise the first-ever complete recording of all 61 surviving songs of Frederick Delius for voice and piano. This recording features baritone Mark Stone accompanied by Stephen Barlow on piano. Michael Maglaras of 217 Records is Executive Producer. Produced and released first in the United Kingdom on July 18, 2011 on the Stone Records label, and produced in association with 217 Records, this eventual two-volume journey through the Delius songbook will be a delight to listeners everywhere. Pictured: Stephen Barlow and Mark Stone. “We at 217 Records cannot imagine a finer exponent of the English art song than baritone Mark Stone. That he possesses a superb instrument is clear to everyone who knows his work. But he is also a singer of rare intelligence and refinement, and this recording bears his unmistakable stamp,” said Michael Maglaras. “Stephen Barlow is the logical successor to Gerald Moore. He is a great English pianist who brings not only gracious support to this undertaking, but helps create, in every song, an immediate sense of both the drama and the deeper meaning of Delius’s work.” Volume 1, which includes first-time recordings of five of these songs, features all of Delius’s songs to English and Norwegian texts, the latter being sung in English translation.

  • GARSINGTON OPERA to MOVE to WORMSLEY ESTATE, HOME of the GETTY FAMILY, in 2011 Submitted By: Clare Adams Publicity Thursday, 29 April 2010
    GARSINGTON OPERA TO MOVE TO WORMSLEY ESTATE, HOME OF THE GETTY FAMILY, IN 2011 Submitted by: Clare Adams Publicity Thursday, 29 April 2010 The Directors of Garsington Opera (http://www.garsingtonopera.org) are pleased to announce that Wormsley Estate, the home of the Getty family, is the preferred site for Garsington Opera with effect from the 2011 season. Garsington Opera, founded by the late Leonard Ingrams and his wife Rosalind in 1989, has established an enviable reputation over the last twenty-one years for promoting opera of the highest professional quality in an outdoor setting for a short summer season. Wormsley Estate is set within a magnificent historic landscape in the Chiltern Hills, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. An elegant pavilion auditorium will be created, to be assembled annually, sited close to an attractive collection of flinted buildings, not far from Wormsley House, and nestling in the beautiful deer park. After twenty-one years at Garsington Manor, Garsington Opera has been seeking a new location over the last two years and has reached agreement with Mark Getty to hold the festival at the Wormsley Estate from the summer of 2011. Garsington Opera has now started consultations with the local community, relevant authorities and other interested parties and shall be applying for planning consent. As well as being the setting of the famous cricket ground established by Sir Paul Getty, Wormsley enjoys an impressive two acre 18th century walled garden, a short drive away from the opera pavilion. The estate straddles the Oxfordshire / Buckinghamshire border. It is located close to the M40, is less than fifteen miles from Garsington Manor, and under an hour from central London.

Fortunately I am rarely overheard as I endlessly repeat words and phrases, trying to find the music in them: the exact pitches and rhythms needed to portray a particular emotion often take me an exasperatingly long time to find. One of the things that I love most about writing songs is that I feel I truly get to know and understand the poetry I am setting. The music, as I write it, allows me to feel as if I am inhabiting the character in the poem, and I often only discover what the poem really says to me when I reach the final bar. This disc features a number of texts either written especially for me (Kei Miller, Tamsin Collison, Andrew Motion, Stuart Murray), or already in existence (Kate Wakeling, Ian McMillan, 4th century Aristotle).
