All rights reserved. 44 Harmony: FORUM OF THE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA INSTITUTE Sally Maitlis Decision Making in British Symphony Orchestras: Formal Structures, Informal Systems, and the Role of Players ow are key decisions made in British symphony orchestras? What formal and informal decision-making systems exist? How do they vary between H orchestras? In particular, what is the role of musicians in important artistic and commercial matters and how satisfied are they with the decision- making processes in their organizations? These are the questions underlying a study of decision making and change in symphony orchestras which I am conducting at the Institute of Work Psychology at the University of Sheffield, England. Organizational research on orchestras, in particular British orchestras, is relatively rare. One notable exception is the major comparative study of 78 United States, United Kingdom, and German symphony orchestras which was carried out by J. Richard Hackman, Jutta Allmendinger, and Erin Lehman.1 In an interview published in the April 1996 issue of Harmony, Hackman identified such factors as adequate financial resources and good leadership as critical to an orchestra’s effectiveness, both as to its artistic performance and in terms of member job satisfaction.2 However, little research exists which examines, in depth and over time, the day-to-day functioning of such organizations, especially considering the parts played by musicians when they are not on the stage.

  • Services No Longer Required
    Immediate Release Services No Longer Required BBC Philharmonic and Salford Symphony Orchestra At IWM North 3pm and 8pm on 17 and 18 October 2014 ‘My word it’s a very different battalion now, there are very few of the old lads left in my own platoon...there’s not a one I know’. Arthur ‘Pat’ Burke The powerful story of a soldier from Salford who fought in the First World War will be brought to life in a series of special performances on 17 and 18 October with players from the BBC Philharmonic and Salford Symphony Orchestra at IWM North, part of Imperial War Museums. In a unique collaboration between the BBC Philharmonic and IWM North, Services No Longer Required will share the experiences of Arthur Pat Burke, who exchanged the home comforts of Salford for the front line and the Battle of the Somme. Writer Di Sherlock has dramatised some of the many letters that Pat (as he was known) wrote home to his mother (Ma) and his brothers Reg and Tom. Ten musicians from BBC Philharmonic and members of the Salford Symphony Orchestra will perform an original score composed by Richard Taylor and share the stage with actors playing the parts of Pat Burke, ‘Ma’ and a war veteran who reflects on true experiences from contemporary conflicts. The evening performance on Friday 17 October at 8pm will be broadcast live on BBC Radio Manchester, and will be followed by a Q&A hosted by breakfast show host, Allan Beswick and featuring artists, guests and relatives of Arthur Pat Burke.

His most recent collaboration with Birmingham Opera Company with the CBSO at Symphony Hall with Wagner’s ’RhineGold’ was received to critical acclaim: “…The City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra’s sound [was] controlled with an absolutely sure hand by the company’s Music Director Alpesh Chauhan - who was superb throughout.” The Telegraph ***** Forthcoming highlights of the 21/22 season include his opening concert as Principal Guest of Dusseldorf Symphoniker (Beethoven Symphony No. 6), his debut with Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra and projects with Santa Cecilia, Philharmonia Orchestra, BBC Symphony at the Barbican, the Orchestra of Opera North, Ulster Orchestra and RAI Torino as well as extensive recording and symphonic projects with BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra.

Chauhan has also enjoyed a fruitful relationship with the Filarmonica Arturo Toscanini in Parma, who named him as their Principal Conductor and with whom he has performed and recorded staples of the great symphonic repertoire, including a complete cycle of Brahms’ Symphonies. Other highlights of his career to date include performances with the London Symphony Orchestra at the Barbican Centre, with the BBC Philharmonic at the BBC Proms, a production of Turandot in Valencia at the Palau de les Arts Reina Sofía as well as regular appearances with the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra where until 2016 he was Assistant Conductor.

  • Spanish Conductor Juanjo Mena Returns to Perform with the New York Philharmonic Following a Successful Debut Last Season
    Spanish conductor Juanjo Mena returns to perform with the New York Philharmonic following a successful debut last season 27, 28, 29 & 30 January 2016 David Geffen Hall, New York New York Philharmonic Orchestra Juanjo Mena conductor Beethoven Violin Concerto (soloist James Ehnes) Bruckner Symphony No. 6 “The sheer energy generated by this exciting conductor […] was one of the most exhilarating orchestral experiences in my recall.” Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Following a successful debut last year with the New York Philharmonic resulting in a standing ovation, BBC Philharmonic Chief Conductor Juanjo Mena makes an immediate return for a series of four concerts in the New Year, 27 to 30 January. Of his debut, the New York Times commented that Mena led the orchestra “with brisk efficiency and lightness of texture” and that “the orchestra obliged with bright playing and energy”. Following many notable appearances with all the leading American orchestras in recent years, the Spanish conductor received an instant re-invitation for the current season after just one rehearsal with the New York Philharmonic. Critically acclaimed for his Bruckner, Mena has chosen a programme of the composer’s Sixth Symphony coupled with Beethoven’s Violin Concerto to be performed by James Ehnes, who, prior to New York, performs with Mena and the BBC Philharmonic in Manchester on 4 December. In popular demand from Toronto to Dresden and Copenhagen during the 2015/16 season, Mena’s other notable appearance is a much-anticipated debut with the Berlin Philharmonic. Juanjo Mena has been Chief Conductor of the BBC Philharmonic since September 2011, and has undertaken numerous recordings and international tours with the orchestra.

Andante – Allegro energico [8.59] and orchestral colours …The sound world he before my ‘official’ No. 1).

Adagio, con molto sentimento [10.35] to show the full capacities of a good orchestra contrasts”, and this concise definition has been 4 III. Allegretto giocoso [9.13] shining for the maximum! as much my aim in the five works I have called symphonic poems as in my nine symphonies. 5 Sinfonia, Op. 67: Andante – Allegro [8.18] I will never forget David’s own words in his The difference is that while symphonies for me “Thank You” to the members of the BBC have been purely abstract pieces, symphonic A Vision of the Sea, Op. 125 Philharmonic orchestra: “I try to write music poems like A Vision of the Sea have in addition 6 Poco lento e calmo [5.27] which you simply enjoy playing”.
