I am particularly appreciative of those state branches which are pursuing their own activities with such vigour, and for the close liaison kept with local members that these activities entail. I am hopeful and optimistic that in spite of financial cut backs from the Music Board, that the various state cultural affairs departments will provide support for local activities and for participation in national and international events. The Music Board was generous in Z9?9 and Z980, but Z9BZ will only see one national conference, with no support for the IAML conference in Budapest, and no support for the joint LAA/NZLA conference in January. IAMLANZ was able to support James Murdoch's attendance at this conference through funds not expended but allocated for last year's meeting in November, The IAMLANZ secretariat will now be housed at the Australia Music Centre, with Martin Buzacott being acting secretary/treasurer. This will enable the continuity of the Association's business affairs to be placed on to a more secure basis with administrative support from the Centre's staff. I would Zike to thank publicly both Ann Wellman and Laurel Garlick who contibuted enormous efforts to the Z9?9 conference. Its success was such a catalyst to subsequent IAMLANZ activities, and a fine tribute to them both. PRUE NEIDORF President I.A.M.L.A.N.Z. - 1 - REPORT ON IAMLANZ GENERAL MEETING, 27-28 NOVEMBER 1980 HELD AT THE AUSTRALIA MUSIC CENTRE, SYDNEY The 1980 IAMLANZ General Meeting was convened primarily to bring together representatives from each state and from each IAMLANZ project, so that activities planned for 1981 could be put on a workable basis, and so that sufficient information about these activities could be discussed and turned into reports to be published in Continuo, Although our current funds are relatively healthy, the Music Board has rejected the International components of the IAMLANZ submission for 1981. These consisted of one representative to be sent to Budapest and three to Christchurch. The only activity funded was one national meeting and for the 3R's. (A total of $2734). The meeting agreed that a second submission be presented to the Music Board for the IAML Conference, as there are now 6 Australians on IAML and IASA working committees (we have had no response to this second submission yet). One delegate was nominated to go to Christchurch (in the event, James Murdoch attended the conference). A RISM report was presented and this will be published in Continuo. Verbal reports on RILM and RidIM were also presented. Music Board submissions for 1982 are due in May 1981, and all requests from state branches, representatives and individuals are to be submitted to the President before the end of April. We will seek increased funding for Continuo, the 3Ris, Union Catalogue of Orchestral Scores and IAML Brus sells. It was also agreed that state representatives should also apply to their State Cultural Affairs Branches for funding, Reports from Cambridge were presented by Prue Neidorf, Jo Parkes, Jane Hardie and James Murdoch. The meeting discussed the paper presented by Hayden Sugden at the AACOBS conference in August, and Pixie Crook's response. It was agreed that IAMLANZ support any application AACOBS may make, and send letters of appreciation to the paper givers. It was resolved that IAMLANZ liaise with the Adelaide chapter of the M.S.A. with a view to a joint conference next August involving Professor Kurt von Fischer. - 2 - Extensive discussion was given to Continua, with Ralph Bott and Martin Buzacott nominated as editors. David Mercer is to be responsible for the compilation of the next Directory of Music Libraries. Siglas used by NUCOM will be used in future dealings with RISM. Gordon Abbott will be chairman of the Union Listing of Orchestral Scores project, proposed by him and Pixie Crook. A copy of their reports was to be given to each State Cultural Director. Nucomusic is now in four sequences, all searchable, and there are no filing backlogs. A new sequence will begin in January 1981 with uniform titles according to AACR2. The National Library has issued a draft report on selection policies for library materials, which include music and sound recordings. A response from IAMLANZ members is welcomed. The agenda for the 1981 Adelaide Conference was discussed. It was resolved that the Conference would begin Friday of the last week in August and close midday Sunday. It was suggested that the general IAMLANZ meeting be held on the Friday afternoon. A IAMLANZ national committee onrcataloguing has been set up with Jo Parkes in the chair, Paul Bentley responsible for Dewey, Gordon Abbott for AUSMARC, Prue Neidorf ISBN (NBM) and Jane Hardie for ISBN (A). Active participation on this committee is highly desirable for as many members as possible, A letter expressing IAMLANZ's concern for the training of music librarians has been drafted by Jane Hardie, to be sent to the L.A.A. IAMLANZ was happy to have Ian Neil from the Music Board and Dulcie Stretton from the Library Council, as observers and welcomed their contributions and advice. The minutes of this meeting were taken by Frances Simmons, research officer of the Australia Music Centre and copies are available from either Prue Neidorf or Martin Buzac.ott;, IAMLANZ wishes to express its appreciation for all the help for its activities given by the Centre and by all members of its staff. - 3 - REPORT ON ACTIVITIES IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA TO IAMLANZ GENERAL MEETING, NOVEMBER 27, 1980 Staff changes Hayden Sugden, who has been Music Librarian in the Central Music Library since 1976, was appointed Divisional Librarian of the Accessions Division of the Library Board of W.A. in August 1980. As Music Librarian Hayden promoted IAMLANZ in Western Australia and made important contacts with libraries in other states. Julie Ham, who has worked in the Central Music Library for four years, is the new Music Librarian. AACOBS Conference At the AACOBS conference on 'Bibliographical Services to the Nation' held in Sydney on 26-27 August, Hayden Sugden presented a paper entitled 'The need for improved bibliographical services in the field of Australian music'. Alexander Library Building The plans for the Alexander Library Building, which will house all the divisions of the Library Board of W.A., have now been finalized. 2 The Central Music Library will occupy 78lm on the second floor of the building. The building is scheduled for completion in 1984. Donations Two major donations of orchestral parts have been received by the Central Music Library in the past year. The donations have come from two orchestras which no longer exist. The Metropolitan Youth Orchestra (about 270 sets) and the Metropolitan Orchestral Society (about 100 sets). A catalogue of the orchestral sets held in the Central Music Library is nearly completed and will be ready for printing in April 1981.

When the National Party took office in December 1949, they inherited an educational system in which school music had not been particularly well served. Robert Chapman comments: The underlying changes in the golden 1960s were social rather than political, technological rather than legislative, individual rather than public ....The tertiary education boom, television, and the contraceptive pill were transforming family and personal relationships as well as the method by which politics were perceived. Government expenditure underwrote the surging development of health and education ... 3 In chapter one section 1.2 it was pointed out that the influence of English music education endured for many years. It is in this period that we begin to see a development of a more innovative approach which was more eclectic in its character. 1 AE. Campbell, Director-General of Education, AJHR.

  • An Operatic Tradition ADRIENNE SIMPSON in Conversation with J.M.THOMSON
    4 The symmetries of his achievement are irresistible. Quintessential early works such as - the overtures Aotearoa, Festival and Drysdale and the cantata Prodigal Country were part of the centennial celebrations of 1940 when Douglas Lilburn was a youthful twenty-five year old. Today, in 1990, we celebrate the composer at seventy-five years and an anniversary of 150 years of nationhood. The works of the intervening fifty years are all about that 'something very strange', - 'the vivid night smell of the bush country' and the challenge to others to make the New Zealand journeys that are their own version of a 'hair-raising' experience in the Marlborough Sounds. Within this exhibition the maps and routes of this musical traveller are laid out for us all to experience and understand. This is an appropriate and timely tribute to the work of this great New Zealand artist for which we owe curator Jill Palmer a resonant accolade. Douglas Lilburn's journey is part of a larger flow. A flow expertly woven and interpreted by curator John Mansfield Thomson to whom I offer congratulations and thanks for the benefits of his wisdom and knowledge in finding and making these pathways. Music is the province and property of all human kind. Of people from all walks of life, backgrounds, origins and beliefs. It is simultaneously their servant, their reflection and their release. And each place and each time has its own music. And each music has the unique ability to translate across time, borders and barriers whatever they may be - social, physical or intellectual.

  • Approve of Who Gets in and Who Doesn't. but the Coverage Seems to Be Fair and Balanced. the Information Is Generally Purposeful and Unembellished
    REVIEWS approve of who gets in and who doesn't. But the coverage seems to be fair and balanced. The information is generally purposeful and unembellished. It tries to cover careers from birth to death with emphasis on contributions to Pacific discovery and exploration. It is designed to help readers identify names they might come across in their Pacific readings, not to provide specialized, comprehensive biographies. The briefest entries (such as for Butler) are only the few lines, the longest (such as for Cook) are no more than three pages. On average most 'navigators' get about one page. A very useful bibliography then directs readers to more specialist works. This book is a most useful, if slightly esoteric, reference tool. I certainly wish it had existed years ago. Dunmore is to be congratulated on what must have been a painstaking building of biographic files during his own extensive navigating through the literature of Pacific exploration. And it is somewhat refreshing that someone can write about European discoveries without a hint of the tortured posturing that has been so much a feature of Columbus quincentenary studies. K.R.

  • The Quest for the Long White Whale: Nature Imagery in New Zealand Classical Music
    THE QUEST FOR THE LONG WHITE WHALE: NATURE IMAGERY IN NEW ZEALAND CLASSICAL MUSIC Peter Beatson [An earlier version of this article appeared in Sites 22:34-53, 1991, and was reprinted with illustrations the following year in Canzona.] INTRODUCTION This article weaves together three intertwining threads. Firstly and most importantly, it is intended as a modest contribution to the academic study of New Zealand classical music. For a very small country, we have an impressive line-up of composers, of whom 105 are listed in John Mansfield Thomson's 1990 Biographical Dictionary of New Zealand Composers, yet the discursive content of their work receives far less analytical attention in sites of intellectual discourse than their literary colleagues. The present article is not intended as anything like a total survey, but I have attempted in its course to introduce the names of a significant number of composers and their works to indicate in purely quantitative terms the size of this rather under-valued component of our national culture. Here, then, is the first thread: putting it simply, I just wanted to write something about New Zealand classical music! However, that initial impulse was a little too vague, inchoate and open-ended. To limit the field, and to give the discussion manageable structure and direction, I made the strategic decision to focus on just one theme, namely the ways in which the natural world is represented in our national music. I will therefore not be discussing self-referential, abstract music with no aspirations to be anything other than a sonata, quartet, symphony or whatever, nor programmatic works (such as operas and songs) with subjects other than nature.

  • Questions About Richard Fuchs
    1 Questions about Richard Fuchs by Steven Sedley As published in the 2010 CANZONA (Composers Association of NZ) Yearbook On May 9, 2008 The New Zealand Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Kenneth Young, performed the Symphonic Movement in f minor by the German Jewish refugee composer, Richard Fuchs (1887-1947), as part of a “Made in New Zealand” concert in the Wellington Town Hall. Why was this work played for the first time 60 years after the composer’s death? Why was Richard Fuchs totally unknown both in New Zealand, where he lived the last years of his life, and in Karlsruhe, Germany, where he was born and lived for fifty years before finding refuge in New Zealand, and where some of his music was performed in the 1930s? This Symphonic Movement is a rich, colourful, late romantic work, using a very large orchestra. It starts with a Beethoven like chord and develops into music reminiscent of Mahler. A triumphal opening section resolves into a nostalgic passage, then a turbulent interlude leads into beautiful, haunting wind solos interspersed with organ like full orchestral chords. The opening section returns in a subdued mood and finally it concludes the movement as it began, suggesting the inevitability of fate. On first hearing, one gets the impression that there is too much music, there are too many notes, too many ideas, but this was meant to be the first movement of a vast, four-movement symphony. The last 2 movement of the symphony was left incomplete. Some of these themes, ideas, would have been developed in the rest of the work.

Publication in magazine, newspaper, anthology and book form, generally to 1952. Manuscripts. Typescripts. Other information. SECTION ONE: 1925–29 Hyde’s gift for imagery is evident from the outset of her career as a poet. Within conventional forms and standard tropes she organises distinctive flashes of image and phrase that lift the poems above most of the poetry appearing in newspapers and journals of the day. She was also composing with an ear to dramatic, speech-driven rhythms; Schroder complained about her ‘defective ear’ (Introduction 9), a criticism that should be balanced against the abundance of ellipses and dashes in the poems as they appear in the fair copy manuscript books. To modern eyes, this punctuation looks excessive and outdated, and much of it was edited out as the poems moved towards book publication. But its intended function (graphical scoring of delivery, indication of breathing and pace) should not be overlooked.
