The Choral Anthems of Alice Mary Smith THE CHORAL ANTHEMS OF ALICE MARY SMITH: PERFORMANCE EDITIONS OF THREE ANTHEMS BY A WOMAN COMPOSER IN VICTORIAN ENGLAND A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE DOCTOR OF ARTS BY CHRISTOPHER E. ELLIS DR. ANDREW CROW - ADVISOR BALL STATE UNIVERSITY MUNCIE, INDIANA MAY, 2014 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my lovely wife, Mandy, for her constant support during the entire doctoral program. Without her, I would have struggled to maintain my motivation to continue pursuing this degree. My two children, Camden and Anya, have also inspired me to press forward. The joy I see in their faces reminds me of the joy that I find in conducting choral music. I am truly grateful for my wonderful family. I would also like to thank all of the committee members. They each gave generously of their time to meet and guide me through the doctoral process. I would especially like to thank Dr. Crow, who kindly guided me through the steps of the dissertation process, providing insight, direction, and caution, all while pushing me to improve the final product. His advice as an instructor and mentor in matters of conducting and choral music, especially early in the degree program were greatly encouraging and instilled some needed confidence in me. Dr. Ester inspired me to be a better teacher, and proved to be an excellent model to follow as a college professor. I am more confident and effective as a teacher as a result of his teaching and advice. Dr. Karna’s friendliness and prompt communication first attracted me to the program at Ball State, and his flexibility allowed me to balance the course work and caring for my family. Dr. Maurer is always encouraging, and it was enjoyable to speak to her in German. Her diction course helped me improve my ability to consider diction in the choral rehearsal as well as my own singing. Dr. Cancio was a willing soloist for some of the pieces I conducted with the ii iii summer choir. All of the committee members have contributed positively to my experience at Ball State. I would also like to thank the graduate coordinator, Dr. Pohly, and Linda Elliott, who have assisted me in finishing the program from a distance. I was impressed that they both knew me by name from the beginning of my time at Ball State, and felt that they genuinely wanted to help me pursue my goals. ABSTRACT The music of Alice Mary Smith (1839-1884) was mostly forgotten within a decade following her death. During her lifetime, she gained a favorable reputation as a composer and challenged the contemporary notion that women were incapable of composing large-scale works. She was among the first English women to have written a symphony that was performed publicly. In the last four years of her life, Smith wrote some secular choral-orchestral music, which became popular and was published by Novello in London. Thus Smith also became one of the first English women to have large-scale music published. Her output included five sacred choral pieces that were never published. Only two of them have any record of performance. This document investigates some of Smith’s unpublished and forgotten choral music and demonstrates its worthiness for inclusion in the repertoire of modern church choirs. The study includes three of the five unpublished anthems, transcribed into modern performing editions from the manuscript images. These three anthems by Smith belong to a larger collection of sacred music written as part of the English church music reformation, in which church leaders placed more emphasis on choral singing and more elaborate choral music in the service than had been common in the first half of the nineteenth century. The study also considers Smith’s compositions in the context of the Victorian era, in the context of the composer’s legacy, and in the context of the anthem genre. Analysis and critical apparatus are included for each selected anthem. This study concludes that Smith’s anthems bear historic interest because of the pioneering career of the composer; they also bear musical interest, and would be worthy iv v additions to the repertoire of modern church choirs. The music contains a balance of challenge and accessibility that would suit them to average or advanced singers.

  • Université De Montréal Par Justin Bernard Faculté De Musique Thèse
    Université de Montréal Notes de programme. Une histoire, des pratiques et de nouveaux usages numériques par Justin Bernard Faculté de musique Thèse présentée en vue de l’obtention du grade de doctorat en musique, option musicologie Avril 2019 © Justin Bernard, 2019 RÉSUMÉ Depuis leur émergence au milieu du XIXe siècle, les notes de programme, contenant des informations parfois détaillées sur les œuvres qui s’apprêtent à être jouées, n’ont eu de cesse de s’adresser au public de concerts. Les besoins sont multiples, voire même divergents : donner des outils de compréhension intelligibles aux novices, qui découvrent la musique de compositeurs du passé ou de compositeurs actuels, et en même temps susciter la curiosité d’auditeurs déjà initiés, qui approfondissent ainsi leurs connaissances et leur culture personnelle. Il en va des notes de programme comme d’autres outils de vulgarisation musicale, partagés entre la volonté de rendre la musique classique accessible à tous et le devoir de rigueur musicologique auquel les connaisseurs sont en droit de s’attendre. Dans cette thèse, nous allions la théorie à la pratique. Outre les résultats d’une enquête réalisée en octobre 2017 dans le cadre de trois concerts produits par l’Orchestre symphonique de Montréal (ci-après, OSM) et qui porte notamment sur l’appréciation des notes de programme, nous présentons une série de courtes vidéos de vulgarisation que nous avons préparée pour l’OSM, au cours de la saison 2015-2016. La réalisation de ces nouveaux outils numériques s’appuie sur l’analyse d’un vaste corpus de notes de programme dont nous avons dégagé les tendances et les cas plus particuliers.

  • Liturgical Drama in Bach's St. Matthew Passion
    Uri Golomb Liturgical drama in Bach’s St. Matthew Passion Bach’s two surviving Passions are often cited as evidence that he was perfectly capable of producing operatic masterpieces, had he chosen to devote his creative powers to this genre. This view clashes with the notion that church music ought to be calm and measured; indeed, Bach’s contract as Cantor of St. Thomas’s School in Leipzig stipulated: In order to preserve the good order in the churches, [he would] so arrange the music that it shall not last too long, and shall be of such nature as not to make an operatic impression, but rather incite the listeners to devotion. (New Bach Reader, p. 105) One could argue, however, that Bach was never entirely faithful to this pledge, and that in the St. Matthew Passion he came close to violating it entirely. This article explores the fusion of the liturgical and the dramatic in the St. Matthew Passion, viewing the work as the combination of two dramas: the story of Christ’s final hours, and the Christian believer’s response to this story. This is not, of course, the only viable approach to this masterpiece. The St. Matthew Passion is a complex, heterogeneous work, rich in musical and expressive detail yet also displaying an impressive unity across its vast dimensions. This article does not pretend to explore all the work’s aspects; it only provides an overview of one of its distinctive features. 1. The St. Matthew Passion and the Passion genre The Passion is a musical setting of the story of Christ’s arrest, trial and crucifixion, intended as an elaboration of the Gospel reading in the Easter liturgy.

After he continued the rotation from Georg Philipp Telemann’s performing his first Passion in , a work based in part time, Bach’s first Passion would have been a setting based and almost on the scale of his father’s St. Matthew Passion, on St. John’s Gospel.

  • Is Now the Time to Retire the Star-Spangled Banner? by Daniel Hathaway
    Is now the time to retire The Star-Spangled Banner? by Daniel Hathaway During the recent demonstrations responding to the death of George Floyd while in police custody in Minneapolis, a number of monuments were toppled that represented the racist history of the United States. Among them, in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park and elsewhere, statues memorializing Francis Scott Key were pulled down. Key was author of the poem Defence of ​ Fort M’Henry, inspired by the British ​ bombardment in Baltimore Harbor in September 1814, that became the text of The Star-Spangled Banner. Joined to a tune ​ ​ by British composer John Stafford Smith, the song was officially adopted by the U.S. Navy in 1889 and became our National Anthem by resolution of Congress in 1931. The problem with Francis Scott Key, a Baltimore lawyer and district attorney, is that he had owned slaves since 1800. While he went on public record to oppose human trafficking, he also represented the owners of runaway slaves. The problem with his poem is that for 21st-century America, its sentiments seem less and less conducive to uniting a divided nation. The “Star-Spangled Banner” refers to the mammoth flag (originally measuring 30 by 42 feet) with fifteen stars and stripes symbolizing the states that formed the Union at the time. Raised “by dawn’s early light,” the flag, now owned by the Smithsonian Institution, offered proof of an American victory over the British during the War of 1812. Fittingly for the occasion that inspired it, Key’s poem begins with military imagery.

  • A Place for Music: John Nash, Regent Street and the Philharmonic Society of London Leanne Langley
    A Place for Music: John Nash, Regent Street and the Philharmonic Society of London Leanne Langley On 6 February 1813 a bold and imaginative group of music professionals, thirty in number, established the Philharmonic Society of London. Many had competed directly against each other in the heady commercial environment of late eighteenth-century London – setting up orchestras, promoting concerts, performing and publishing music, selling instruments, teaching. Their avowed aim in the new century, radical enough, was to collaborate rather than compete, creating one select organization with an instrumental focus, self-governing and self- financed, that would put love of music above individual gain. Among their remarkable early rules were these: that low and high sectional positions be of equal rank in their orchestra and shared by rotation, that no Society member be paid for playing at the group’s concerts, that large musical works featuring a single soloist be forbidden at the concerts, and that the Soci- ety’s managers be democratically elected every year. Even the group’s chosen name stressed devotion to a harmonious body, coining an English usage – phil-harmonic – that would later mean simply ‘orchestra’ the world over. At the start it was agreed that the Society’s chief vehicle should be a single series of eight public instrumental concerts of the highest quality, mounted during the London season, February or March to June, each year. By cooperation among their fee-paying members, they hoped to achieve not only exciting performances but, crucially, artistic continuity and a steady momentum for fine music that had been impossible before, notably in the era of the high-profile Professional Concert of 1785-93 and rival Salomon-Haydn Concert of 1791-2, 1794 and Opera Concert of 1795.

  • George Grove and the Establishment of the Palestine Exploration Fund
    Chapter One George Grove and the Establishment of the Palestine Exploration Fund David M. Jacobson Abstract This article surveys the growing thirst for factual evidence relating to the world of the Bible in mid-19th century Britain and early tentative efforts to address this demand. It was against this background that the polymath George Grove sought to establish a secular institution devoted to the multidisciplinary study of the southern Levant based on scientific principles. Evidence is marshalled to show that it was Grove’s exceptional combination of talents—his organizational and networking skills, natural intelligence, and wide interests, including a profound knowledge of the geography of the Bible—that enabled him to recruit some of the most illustrious figures of Victorian Britain to help him realize this ambition in 1865, with the establishment of the Palestine Exploration Fund (PEF).
