At school he was taught by Brian Manners who had also studied with Linstead in the Department of Music just after the Second World War. Both were also private pupils of George Linstead. On leaving Sheffield, Christopher Powell became a Research Student at Emmanuel College, Cambridge where, as well as undertaking musicological research, he supervised well over a hundred undergraduates in the Music Tripos for various Colleges of the University of Cambridge. In 1973, he moved to Cardiff as Lecturer in Music at the Welsh College of Music and Drama (now the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama). He was on the music staff at RWCMD for the next twenty-five years holding a number of posts including Head of Academic Studies and Associate Director of Music.

    Summer Newsletter – August 2016 Welcome to the Sheffield Bach Society summer newsletter. The newsletter contains information for singing members and our friends, life-friends and patrons all of whom receive a copy either by email or by post. We start with the forthcoming 67th season and an insight into the works to be performed, written by our conductor Dr Simon Lindley . Saturday 1 October 2016 Bach MASS IN B MINOR Sheffield Cathedral The anthologising of major works towards the end of his long life occupied Bach in very considerable activity. It is most likely that the glorious Mass in B minor – for many the greatest work of all – was not fully completed until the mid 1740s. The Missa – that is to say the movements comprising the complete settings of Kyrie eleison and Gloria in excelsis Deo – was devised, composed and assembled in 1733. Following the death of Augustus II, King of Poland and Elector of Saxony, and the subsequent period of five months of mourning during which no music-making was permitted, Bach set to with a will and produced his Missa which was duly presented in homage to his successor, Augustus III, together with a plea to be granted a musical position at the court of the new Catholic monarch. The petition took a year or two to come to fruition and Bach achieved in1736 his wish to be appointed Composer to the Royal Court. It is certain that its creator never heard the piece in full. Indeed, the only performance of the Credo on record is one by C P E Bach, the composer’s eldest son, in 1786.

    Summer Newsletter – August 2019 Welcome to the Sheffield Bach Society summer newsletter. As usual, the newsletter contains information for singing members and other supporters of the Society. We start with the Society’s forthcoming 70th season and an insight into the works to be performed, written by our conductor Dr Simon Lindley . Saturday 5 October 2019 BRAHMS FESTIVAL CONCERT Sheffield Cathedral 7:30 Sheffield Bach Choir National Festival Orchestra Sally Robinson leader David Houlder - organ Ella Taylor soprano and Alex Ashworth baritone Simon Lindley conductor BRAHMS A German Requiem sung in German BRAHMS Academic Festival Overture BRAHMS Motets - Warum is das Licht gegeben? and Geistliches Lied Raised in poverty, Brahms had never enjoyed the luxury of a university or even a conservatory education. His only contact with student life came in the summer of 1853 when he spent two months with his friend the great violinist Joseph Joachim (later to be the dedicatee of his Violin Concerto) while Joachim studied at the University of Göttingen. It was an experience he remembered fondly. Only twenty, he mingled with his wealthier peers drinking in the taverns without having to undertake any heavier duties in library or classroom. The songs he learned then filled the Academic Festival Overture. Music in C minor full of earnestly chugging strings, spooky woodwind arpeggios, and portentously dramatic chords suggests a weighty work is underway. But this impression is steadily undermined as the key slides into C major and the brass peal forth the student hymn We had built a stately house in marching-band style over a drum roll.

  • 50 Jahre Stadtkantorei Bochum
    50 Jahre Stadtkantorei Bochum Aus den Chroniken der Stadtkantorei zusammengestellt und ihren Freunden und Zuhörern gewidmet von Ernst-Albrecht Plieg Dem Chor viel Segen Auf all seinen Wegen Hubert Franzen (Tenor) in der Chronik der Stadtkantorei 16. Februar 1964 2 Inhalt 1959 - 1985: Eberhardt Otte 3 Rundfunkaufnahmen und Sendungen mit Eberhard Otte 10 Stilblüten aus der Probenarbeit mit Eberhard Otte 11 1985 – 2002: Bernhard Buttmann. 15 Zur Verabschiedung von Herrn Dr. Jaskulsky ein Dankeschön in Versen 23 Seit 2003: Arno Hartmann 24 Zum 50jährigen Bestehen der Stadtkantorei Die Stadtkantorei wurde gegründet, als die durch Bomben zerstörte Christuskirche am Rathaus nach den Entwürfen von Prof. Dieter Oesterlen wieder aufgebaut und im Mai 1959 ihrer Bestimmung über- geben worden war. 3 1959 - 1985: Eberhardt Otte Der erste Leiter der neuen Kantorei war Eberhardt Otte. Es kennzeichnet seine Persönlichkeit, dass die Stadtkantorei ihm nach den ersten fünf Jahren gemeinsamer Arbeit eine Chronik überreichte, in der bis dahin Programme und Kritiken gesammelt waren und auch weiterhin gesammelt wurden. Die Sängerinnen und Sänger taten dies ausdrücklich „mit ehrfurchtsvollem Vergnügen“ und dedizierten die Chronik „… dem vortrefflichen Meister des imaginären Taktstockes … anlässlich der so wohlge- lungenen Aufführung der Hohen Messe in h-moll an dem denkwürdigen Tag des 16. Februar anno domini 1964“. Hätten wir ein solches Buch nicht (repräsentativ gebunden, 9 cm dick, ohne Hülle 3.575 g schwer), wir hätten kaum die Möglichkeit, über die Geschichte des Chores zu berichten. (Zurzeit ist der dritte Band der Chronik „in Arbeit“). Eberhardt Otte stammte aus einer alten Lauenburger Pastorenfamilie. 1922 geboren, hatte er schon als Chorknabe in Mölln die Liebe zur Kir- chenmusik und besonders zur Orgel entdeckt.

  • Elgar, Vaughan Williams and the Idea Of
    Elgar, Vaughan Williams and the idea of the ‘English’ composer After the death of Henry Purcell in 1695, it is a cliché of English musical history to say that there followed two centuries of silence before we arrive at the creative renaissance that put our music back on the world stage via the compositions of the two men featured in tonight’s concert. Like all clichés, it contains a grain of truth, though it does no favours to the likes of Cipriani Potter (friend and follower of Beethoven), or Sheffield’s own William Sterndale Bennett (friend and follower of Mendelssohn), or Sir Hubert Parry (friend and follower of Brahms). However, as the previous sentence suggests, one might look in vain for an entirely original voice in English music until the closing years of the nineteenth century. Sir Edward Elgar (1857–1934) and Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872–1958), in very different ways, each found a voice that recognisably evokes ‘Englishness’, just as, in the same era, one might hear a little Sibelius and say, ‘Ah – Finland!’ However, no sooner have we heard Elgar’s Pomp and Circumstance March No 1 or Vaughan Williams’s The Lark Ascending and begun to believe that ‘Englishness’ is a thing of simple primary colours, than the picture becomes ambiguous. For both men, the idea of Englishness became demonstrably, to borrow an Elgar word, an enigma. For Elgar, the ambiguities relate to the collision between a public persona as the embodiment of Edwardian fading grandeur (knighthood, Order of Merit, Master of the King’s Music) and a private identity that seemed at odds with being the musical voice of the establishment – provincial, Catholic, solitary, more interested in cycling or horse racing or scientific experiment, despite the honours heaped on him.

  • Happy Anniversary, Escafeld!
    Happy Anniversary, Escafeld! How would you celebrate your golden wedding anniversary? It’s OK, the question is merely rhetorical – but the query might prompt consideration of how best to sum up five decades of (theoretically, at least) happy cohabitation. Something of the same thought process lies behind the decision-making that underpins this concert – or rather, since Escafeld Chorale have been celebrating 50 years as a choir over two concerts in 2019, these Spring and Summer concerts. For many years now, Escafeld have performed three different concert programmes each year: a Christmas concert with short religious choral pieces interspersed with congregational carols; a spring concert, usually a fairly serious affair with at least one weighty work, often a requiem or a mass setting; and a summer concert, lighter in character and often accommodating more popular music, such as extracts from a musical. Well, there will be no Christmas carols tonight (though not long ago Escafeld performed a ‘Midsummer Messiah’, displacing Handel’s masterpiece from its usual place in the seasonal calendar). And it could reasonably be said that the spring 2019 concert catered for the ‘weighty’ end of the repertoire, with an early Schubert Mass setting, Britten’s Rejoice in the Lamb and Finzi’s Lo, the Full, Final Sacrifice. So, that leaves the lighter end of the spectrum – not all froth, by any means, but music of an essentially celebratory and upbeat character. And brief pieces too: the shortest a ‘blink and you’ll miss it’ bit of Irishry from Stanford, the longest a mere eight-minute filleting of Rogers and Hammerstein.

The newsletter contains information for singing members and our friends, life-friends and patrons all of whom receive a copy either by email or by post. We start with the Society’s forthcoming 68th season and an insight into the works to be performed, written by our conductor Dr Simon Lindley . Saturday 7 October 2017 Haydn CREATION Sheffield Cathedral National Festival Orchestra with Sally Robinson - leader Alan Horsey harpsichord and organ Soloists Kristina James – Paul Dutton – Quentin Brown Simon Lindley conductor The Creation, without doubt the crown of its composer’s choral output, was written in 1797 and received its first hearing during the following year. The first public performance was in March of 1799. The origins of the verbiage are shrouded in the mists of antiquity and 18th century confusion. Tradition has it, however, that the words had been prepared for Handel by one Lidley. Sir Donald Tovey suggests that “Lidley might be Linley with a cold in the head” – thus ascribing the compilation to Thomas of the latter name, father of two famous musicians: Tom, a childhood prodigy and boyhood friend of Mozart, and Elizabeth, the celebrated singer. Haydn sought the help of Baron von Swieten (he who had commissioned Mozart’s “additional accompaniments” to Handel choral works – notably Messiah and Acis and Galatea) in translating the efforts of “Lidley” into German. Having completed this task, the good Baron then proceeded to translate it back into his own concept of the English language. The result is colourful and often amusing.
