Septuagesima, Third Sunday Before Lent – 9Th February 2020
1 Music Notes: Septuagesima, Third Sunday before Lent – 9th February 2020 It is difficult to believe that it is already just over seven years since the death of Richard Rodney Bennett (1936–2012) – he contrived to expire on Christmas Eve 2012. He was a remarkable composer and performer. As a student at the Royal Academy, he studied with Howard Ferguson and Lennox Berkeley, although perhaps with little evidence of this in his later works. While at the Academy (where he would later teach himself), he struck up a good relationship with the British avant garde composer Cornelius Cardew, before going to study with Boulez in Paris, who impressed him deeply, although not permanently. At that time, he was much taken with Boulez’s music, and with it, the entire serialist school. “Serial” here refers to a style of composition in which (in its classic version) a sequence of notes is defined – usually not something that most people would call a “tune” in the conventional sense – and the composer then uses this as the “input” for a work, manipulating the so-called “tone row” in a variety of ways to form the structure of the music. To be rather blunt, this doesn’t work well for many people, and it is often what people mean when they speak of “squeaky gate music”. Still, it became a very important compositional device for many years in the hands of a large number of composers. For a time, it almost succeeded in knocking most other approaches to composition out of the way. In recent years, this has changed again.

What is particularly notable is that the early principals of the Royal Academy were almost always prominent composers and the directors of the Royal College were very often composers, too. The history of the founding and the back- ground of these two conservatories gives some understanding of their po- sition and standing by the end of World War I. In the early 1820s patriotic amateurs promoted ideas for the founda- tion of a Royal Academy of Music, but this was initially opposed by the mu- sic profession, which felt that there were too many musicians anyway. The professionals then tried unsuccessfully to associate the proposed academy with the long-standing Philharmonic Society, which later commissioned Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony during the same period. In the end the am- ateurs, principally John Fane, eleventh Earl of Westmorland (also known as Lord Berghersh) with assistance of royalty, notably King George IV, suc- ceeded in establishing the Academy of Music in 1822 in London, the first of the British conservatories, receiving its royal charter in 1830 to become the Royal Academy of Music. To create a strong credibility for the institution the founders needed to appoint a distinguished principal, although the choice was perhaps not that difficult.

From Oldham to Oxford: the Formative Years of Sir William Walton
From Oldham to Oxford: The Formative Years of Sir William Walton Gary D. Cannon A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts University of Washington 2014 Reading Committee: Geoffrey P. Boers, Chair Abraham Kaplan Giselle E. Wyers Program Authorized to Offer Degree: School of Music © Copyright 2014 Gary D. Cannon University of Washington Abstract From Oldham to Oxford: The Formative Years of Sir William Walton Gary D. Cannon Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Geoffrey Boers Choral Conducting, School of Music The formative years of William Walton (1902–1983) are rarely considered when studying the composer’s life and works. However, careful study of that period indicates many of the directions that the adult Walton would take. Industrial Lancashire was more musically active during the period of Walton’s youth (covering the years 1902 to 1912) than is generally considered. His time as a chorister and later undergraduate at Christ Church, Oxford (1912 to 1920), is replete with influential interactions with talented adults and fellow students. Detailed consideration of Walton’s juvenilia reveals a keen thinker who assimilated these various influences in a unique manner. Far more than merely a springboard for a future talent, these years resulted in inspired works and a firm purpose for the budding composer.

George Dyson (1883-1964) Sir George Dyson is a well-known English musician and composer whose son is the physicist and mathematician Freeman Dyson; and among his grandchildren are the science historian George Dyson and Esther Dyson. He was born in Halifax, Yorkshire, on 28 May 1883. George Dyson was from a poor family in the industrial north, but his parents encouraged him as an organist in the local church. He became a Fellow of the Royal College of Organists (FRCO) at the age of sixteen, and in 1900 he won a scholarship to the Royal College of Music, where he later became Director. He was a pupil of Sir Charles Villiers Stanford, and in 1904 won the Mendelssohn Scholarship, and travelled to the continent, where he met many leading musicians, including Strauss and Nikisch. On his return Dyson became Director of Music at the Royal Naval College, Osborne, and later moved to Marlborough College, but on the outbreak of war in 1914 he enlisted. During the war he became celebrated for his training pamphlet on grenade warfare, which was widely disseminated.
