  • PETREAN NEWS SUMMER 2010 by Ann Munro, Development Officer
    PETREAN NEWS SUMMER 2010 By Ann Munro, Development Officer Welcome to a belated edition of Petrean News, which has been delayed due to the late circulation of the Peterhouse Newsletter in March. Since November 2009 Alison Pritchard-Jones has been painstakingly sifting through the PIFs (Personal Information Forms). The response to this circulation has been enormous and we are very grateful for your replies. The on-line Register has been temporarily suspended to make it compatible with the new web pages, but if you wish to up- date your contact details, or if there is someone you wish to contact, please get in touch with Alison at [email protected]. A memorial service was held for Neil Plevy, Fellow and Development Director, on 1st May 2010. Tea followed the service, and it was good to see so many members present. As a tribute to our ‘much-missed boss’, the photographs below are our particular favourites. The first shows Neil indulging in his favourite habit in 2002 (before the smoking ban). The second shows Neil at the special launch ceremony of the new shell for the Men’s 1st VIII, named Wilson of Tillyorn in honour of the outgoing Master, Lord Wilson of Tillyorn on Sunday 15th June 2008, sharing a joke with the Dean, The Revd Dr Stephen Hampton, and Lady Wilson. Trevor Hurst Jet Photographic RECENT EVENTS AND ACTIVITIES Telephone Campaign For the sixth successive year, the Development Office held its annual telephone campaign in January, with 12 current undergraduates and graduates spending over 340 hours in conversation with their Petrean predecessors! We were delighted and thrilled by the overwhelmingly positive response and generosity shown by our members, and again despite the adverse economic climate, your munificence exceeded our expectations, raising over £175,000 in support of current strategic priorities, with further donations still trickling in.

It’s a shame he became sidetracked by music, in a way,” Rosemary says.

Syd Barret is, to many, as Cambridge Live’s operations director Neil Jones says, “Cambridge’s most famous musical son”, leaving many fans wondering why it’s taken such a long time for Cambridge to recognise Syd so publicly. “I’m glad that it Barrett’s influence can be seen across took so long. I wouldn’t have allowed it any pop culture – from David Bowie to Blur, other way. He wouldn’t have wanted it,” his stand-out style winning admiration says Rosemary. “He just didn’t understand from the likes of Mary Quant and Mick why people were so interested. He only did Jagger.

  • An Australian Composer Abroad: Malcolm Williamson And
    An Australian Composer Abroad: Malcolm Williamson and the projection of an Australian Identity by Carolyn Philpott B.Mus. (Hons.) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Conservatorium of Music University of Tasmania October 2010 Declaration of Originality This dissertation contains no material that has been accepted for a degree or diploma by the University of Tasmania or any other institution, except by way of background information that is duly acknowledged in the text. I declare that this dissertation is my own work and to the best of my knowledge it contains no material previously published or written by another person except where clear acknowledgement or reference is made in the text, nor does it contain any material that infringes copyright. This dissertation may be made available for loan and limited copying in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Carolyn Philpott Date ii Abstract Malcolm Williamson (1931-2003) was one of the most successful Australian composers of the latter half of the twentieth century and the depth, breadth and diversity of his achievements are largely related to his decision to leave Australia for Britain in the early 1950s. By the 1960s, he was commonly referred to as the “most commissioned composer in Britain” and in 1975 he was appointed to the esteemed post of Master of the Queen’s Music. While his service to music in Britain is generally acknowledged in the literature, the extent of his contribution to Australian music is not widely recognised and this is the first research to be undertaken with a strong focus on the identification and examination of the many works he composed for his homeland and his projection of an Australian identity through his music and persona.
