Then there are the smiles with good grades and scholarships. There is disappointment also, but either way then there is the moving onto the next class. What we are often too busy to contemplate is the back story. There is a lot going on! The young musicians are learning life lessons: setting goals and learning the self-discipline required to meet those goals; building up of their self-confidence and poise as they participate year after year and find that the nerves are easier to manage; strengthening their abilities to concentrate and focus to overcome those “little voices of doubt” and pull off their best efforts before strangers; the ability to graciously hear constructive criticism and coaching; the ability to accept the results – win or lose – and keep going, vowing to improve, to strive, to carry on. This part of the back story is not totally invisible, but it does take years before these skills and attributes blossom. The truly invisible part of the Music Festival story is what is going on in the brain. Those who love music know that listening to music changes us, albeit momentarily. But researchers tell us when we sing or play an instrument, “the whole brain fires up”. This is one of the few activities humans undertake where logic and memory and emotion all come into play simultaneously. Indeed “Music Builds Better Brains”. Of course the adults in the child’s life play a vital role in this back story. The parents and extended family provide encouragement when frustration and distraction push the young musician to the point of wanting to quit. The sacrifice of paying for instruments, music books and lessons is so common-place it is rarely acknowledged overtly. The Board of the RMFA know full well, that without parents willing to support their young musicians in both physical and emotional ways, the festival would cease to exist. And if the parents are the fuel that keeps this eco-system energized, it is the teachers who are the gears, the engine, and the glue of the music world in Regina building up to the festival. This festival runs on volunteers – their heart, their dedication and their energy. The festival is a full blown production pulled together by the most amazing volunteers. Starting in the fall, volunteers begin to work with donors who fund the scholarships and our operations. Adjudicators are contacted and helped to understand how the Regina Festival works and what will be expected of them. A volunteer works to find and schedule the Secretaries and Door Monitors. Registrations are scrutinized by volunteers to make sure that participants are in the right classes; schedulers organize 1134 registrations across all disciplines to fit the time available in the venues that volunteers have found. The office is full of volunteers to make sure that the classes run smoothly, marks are recorded, scholarship decisions made and certificates printed. Volunteers plan the Celebrating Excellence final concert and reception. Our sponsors and donors are key to financing our production. Without their support the festival would not continue. But I would be remiss not to acknowledge the “audience” that comes to each class and contributes to our silver collection at the door. Those small bits of change add up and make the difference between red or black when we close out our fiscal year. The Regina Music Festival is a cultural institution, a tradition, an eco-system with many, many parts. Here’s to a wonderful Music Festival 2018 – enjoy! Susan Gorges Regina Music Festival Association President 3 Get Acquainted with the Regina Music Festival The Music Festival has been held in Regina for the benefit of our young musicians for decades. It is organized and produced by a volunteer board. The festival is financed by entry fees and corporate and individual donations. Hundreds of hours are involved in organizing the festival from booking facilities, registration, data checking, scheduling, finding volunteers, printing adjudication sheets, obtaining scholarships, program compilation and many other activities. The board is always looking for help and would welcome your assistance. The RMFA is a Non-Profit Corporation and a registered charity. We welcome donations to assist us in our operations OR to be awarded to students in the form of scholarships. The Board, on the recommendation of the adjudicators, distributes scholarships totaling over $20,000 yearly.

    BRITISH AND COMMONWEALTH CONCERTOS FROM THE NINETEENTH CENTURY TO THE PRESENT A Discography of CDs & LPs Prepared by Michael Herman Sir Edward Elgar (1857-1934) Born in Broadheath, Worcestershire, Elgar was the son of a music shop owner and received only private musical instruction. Despite this he is arguably England’s greatest composer some of whose orchestral music has traveled around the world more than any of his compatriots. In addition to the Conceros, his 3 Symphonies and Enigma Variations are his other orchestral masterpieces. His many other works for orchestra, including the Pomp and Circumstance Marches, Falstaff and Cockaigne Overture have been recorded numerous times.

  • William Henry Squire's Out-Of-Print Works for Cello and Piano
    PEZZOLI, GINA ANNALISE. D.M.A. William Henry Squire’s Out-of-Print Works for Cello and Piano: Analysis and Suggestions for Teachers (2011). Directed by Dr. Alexander Ezerman. 39 pp. This study presents a biographical overview of William Henry Squire’s life, performance, and teaching career and a pedagogical analysis of his out-of-print works for cello and piano. The study is organized into two main parts. The first reviews Squire’s career as a cellist and composer, with special emphasis on his performing and teaching careers. The second part consists of a detailed description of nine of Squire’s forgotten and out-of-print works for cello and piano. This section includes discussion of the technical and musical challenges of the works, most of which are completely unknown to cellists today. As with many of Squire’s better-known works, these pieces are excellent for intermediate-level cello students. The document is intended to be a teaching “menu” of sorts which details the attributes of each work; therefore the catalogue is organized by difficulty, not by opus number. The nine works chosen for this study are Squire’s Chant D’Amour , Gondoliera , Souvenir, Légende, Berceuse, Slumber Song/Entr’acte, Sérénade op. 15 , Gavotte Humoristique op. 6, and Meditation in C op. 25.

KEITH BERNSTEIN . Page 3 of 4 Page 4 of 4 November 1, 2014 From Month to Month, in a Work of the Eerie and the Oddball ‘October in the Chair and Other Fragile Things’ By Alexis Soloski A sad tale’s best for winter, Shakespeare tells us. So what’s the right kind of story for this time of year? A spooky one, of course. Old Sound Room, a young company built by recent Yale School of Drama graduates, has five on offer. In “October in the Chair and Other Fragile Things,” an enjoyably eerie if overwrought piece, the ensemble adapts yarns plucked from “Fragile Things,” a collection of miscellany by the fantasy writer Neil Gaiman. On a set bedecked with cobwebs and dead trees, five performers (including the director, Michael McQuilken) play various months of the year. Wearing ragtag clothes and the sort of stage makeup that resembles a wasting disease, they take turns telling anecdotes and legends. (What of the other seven months? I guess it’s a very short year.) August offers a standard-issue chiller; February, a sad romance; May, a metafictional jumble; March, a bit of faux-Victoriana; and October, an early version of Mr. Gaiman’s much-loved “The Graveyard Book.” Much of this is in the story theater vein, with the months narrating the characters’ actions. Mr. Gaiman has a restless, playful intelligence and a fan boy’s devotion to oddball genre, and the performances are deft and spirited.

  • Justin Solomon 1 Deconstructing the Definitive Recording: Elgar's Cello Concerto and the Influence of Jacqueline Du Pré Accou
    Justin Solomon 1 Deconstructing the Definitive Recording: Elgar’s Cello Concerto and the Influence of Jacqueline du Pré Accounts of Jacqueline du Pré’s 1965 recording session for the Elgar Cello Concerto with Sir John Barbirolli border on mythical. Only twenty years old at the time, du Pré impressed the audio engineers and symphony members so much that word of a historic performance quickly spread to an audience of local music enthusiasts, who arrived after a break to witness the remainder of the session.1 Reviewers of the recording uniformly praised the passion and depth of du Pré’s interpretation; one reviewer went so far as to dub the disc “the standard version of the concerto, with or without critical acclaim.”2 Even du Pré seemed to sense that the recording session would become legendary. Despite the fact that the final recording was produced from thirty-seven takes spanning the entirety of the Concerto, du Pré hinted to her friends that “she had played the concerto straight through,” as if the recording were the result of a single inspired performance rather than a less glamorous day of false starts and retakes.3 Without doubt, du Pré’s recording is one of the most respected interpretations of the Concerto. Presumably because of the effectiveness of the recording and the attention it received, the famous cellist Mstislav Rostropovich “erased the concerto from his repertory” after the recording was released.4 For this reason, it comes as no surprise that in the wake of such a respected and widely distributed rendition, amateur and professional cellists alike would be conscious of du Pré’s stylistic choices and perhaps imitate their most attractive features.

Thesis Supervisor: Edel Sanders, Ph.D. Prague-July, 2015. THE EVOLUTION OF AMERICAN MUSICAL THEATRE. 2 Declaration: I confirm that this is my own work and the use of all material from other sources has been properly and fully acknowledged. I give my permission to the library of the Faculty of Education of Charles University to have my thesis available for educational purposes. …...................................... …................................ Prague,20th July, 2015. Asimenou Gabriella. THE EVOLUTION OF AMERICAN MUSICAL THEATRE. 3 Abstract. In this paper I analyse the development of musical theatre through the social issues which pervaded society before and which continue to influence our society today. This thesis explores the link between the musicals of the times and concurrent problems such as the world wars, economic depression and racism. Choosing to base this analysis on the social problems of the United States, I tried to highlight the origins and development of the musical theatre art form by combining the influences which may have existed in humanity during the creation of each work. This paper includes research from books, journals, encyclopedias, and websites which together show similar results, that all things in life travel cycles, and that tendencies and patterns in society will unlikely change fundamentally, although it is hoped that the society will nonetheless evolve for the better. Perhaps the most powerful phenomena which will help people to escape from their sociological problems are music and theatre. Keywords: Musicals, Society,Culture.

    _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ February 2016 Published by FCC in conjunction with the Archdeaconry of London www.cityevents.website _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Sword Rests of the City The historic churches of the City of London contain many unusual and interesting furnishings and fittings. Among the most intriguing are the sword rests which are present in so many of the churches in the “square mile”, but in very few other locations in the country. Sword rests, or sword stands as they are sometimes called, were originally installed in City churches to hold the Lord Mayor's sword of state when he visited a different church every Sunday, a practice which ceased in 1883. The Lord mayor would be accompanied by various officers of the City, including the swordbearer, who would place the ceremonial sword upright in a sword rest, most commonly attached to the front pews. The oldest surviving rest dates from 1664 and the majority were installed in the 18th and 19th centuries. There are 58 surviving sword rests originating from City churches or livery halls. Two thirds of these can be seen in City churches, four are in livery halls, while the remainder are either in storage in churches or in museums . Two can be seen in All Hallows Twickenham, a Wren church rebuilt in the suburbs in 1939. All the sword rests, with the exception of that in St Michael Cornhill, are surmounted by a royal crown and almost all have the City’s coat of arms prominently displayed. Many also show the royal arms, the coat of arms of at least one Lord Mayor and, in a number of cases, the arms of the livery company of which dthe Lor Mayor was a member.

  • The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club the First 20 Years; 1894 to 1914
    THE CRICKETERS OF Hampstead and HAMPSTEAD Westminster Hockey Club HOCKEY CLUB The Men of the Eyre Arms and the first 20 years 1894 to 1914 The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club The first 20 years; 1894 to 1914 The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club The first 20 years; 1894 to 1914 Written and Produced for Hampstead and Westminster Hockey Club 2015 by Ian Smith The Cricketers of Hampstead Hockey Club The first 20 years; 1894 to 1914 Note This account is an attempt to throw light, predominantly from a cricketing perspective, on the circumstances in which Hampstead Hockey Club evolved and the key individuals who oversaw its transformation from a hockey-playing section of Hampstead Cricket Club into a leading hockey club in England within a little more than a decade. It is certainly not intended as a record of the first twenty years of the club, as that has been covered more skilfully by club historian, Colin Greenhalgh. More is known of some of these individuals than others. The contents may therefore appear out of balance. Much is taken up with the exploits of Andrew Stoddart but without apology, as his was a remarkable sporting record that has remained virtually unparalleled and was a life that, like several of his sporting contemporaries, ended in tragic circumstances. His story was itself recorded in part in his own albums of cuttings that were thought to be preparatory to a memoir. That never materialised but the contents were taken up by his biographer, David Frith, who felt compelled to write because “here was a wonderful cricketer who has been piteously neglected by historians”.
