Elgar up the harmonies of his inner orchestra; met Kreisler in Leeds in 1904, and again but it was the violin that gave him the in Norwich the next year, and very soon invaluable stimulus of playing in the Three began to sketch the concerto. It had Choirs Festival (under no less a master to take a back seat while he wrote than Dvořák on one occasion); the violin The Kingdom (1906) and the mighty First that he studied with a top London teacher; Symphony (1908), but in January 1910, the violin which dominates his earliest Elgar played through the concerto’s slow opus numbers, with Op.15 bringing the movement with a friend, Lady Speyer, a running total to 18 separate pieces.

  • WALTON, William Turner Piano Quartet / Violin Sonata / Toccata (M
    WALTON, William Turner Piano Quartet / Violin Sonata / Toccata (M. Jones, S.-J. Bradley, T. Lowe, A. Thwaite) Notes to performers by Matthew Jones Walton, Menuhin and ‘shifting’ performance practice The use of vibrato and audible shifts in Walton’s works, particularly the Violin Sonata, became (somewhat unexpectedly) a fascinating area of enquiry and experimentation in the process of preparing for the recording. It is useful at this stage to give some historical context to vibrato. As late as in Joseph Joachim’s treatise of 1905, the renowned violinist was clear that vibrato should be used sparingly,1 through it seems that it was in the same decade that the beginnings of ‘continuous vibrato use’ were appearing. In the 1910s Eugene Ysaÿe and Fritz Kreisler are widely credited with establishing it. Robin Stowell has suggested that this ‘new’ vibrato began to evolve partly because of the introduction of chin rests to violin set-up in the early nineteenth century.2 I suspect the evolution of the shoulder rest also played a significant role, much later, since the freedom in the left shoulder joint that is more accessible (depending on the player’s neck shape) when using a combination of chin and shoulder rest facilitates a fluid vibrato. Others point to the adoption of metal strings over gut strings as an influence. Others still suggest that violinists were beginning to copy vocal vibrato, though David Milsom has observed that the both sets of musicians developed the ‘new vibrato’ roughly simultaneously.3 Mark Katz persuasively posits the idea that much of this evolution was due to the beginning of the recording process.

  • GSMD Annual Viola Day 25Th October 2017 Report Guildhall School Of
    GSMD Annual Viola Day 25th October 2017 Report Guildhall School of Music and Drama held its annual Viola Day this year on Wednesday 25th October 2017, in the Silk Street Music Hall. It was a day celebrating all things viola with members of GSMD and a wonderful number of viola enthusiasts of all ages from across the country. As always, the day was packed full of events both familiar and with some new additions! Masterclasses and workshops We were delighted to welcome Jade McCarthy, a 16-year old violist originally from Bournemouth, to Guildhall where she played Glazunov’s Elegy beautifully in a masterclass with GSMD’s Head of Chamber Music Matthew Jones. German Clavijo, of the LSO and Liceu Opera Barcelona, put Guildhall students through their paces in orchestral excerpts. We were also delighted to welcome back once again Simon Rowland-Jones for a masterclass: works by Enescu, Rebecca Clarke and Hindemith were wonderfully explored. A new addition this year was a sight-reading session for all participants with LSO’s Robert Turner. Gathered in a circle, a large viola section was treated to en-mass sight-reading, getting a real feel for how it works in an orchestra section. Robert’s talk on the history, uses and techniques for sight- reading were a real eye-opener for everyone involved! We especially enjoyed the last excerpt from Star Wars – much harder than it looks on paper! Chamber music, arrangements and contemporary works As always, all the Guildhall students got involved performing viola ensemble works and arrangements, receiving coaching from Matthew Jones leading up to the day itself.

  • Lionel Tertis, York Bowen, and the Rise of the Viola
    THE VIOLA MUSIC OF YORK BOWEN: LIONEL TERTIS, YORK BOWEN, AND THE RISE OF THE VIOLA IN EARLY TWENTIETH-CENTURY ENGLAND A THESIS IN Musicology Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF MUSIC by WILLIAM KENTON LANIER B.A., Thomas Edison State University, 2009 Kansas City, Missouri 2020 © 2020 WILLIAM KENTON LANIER ALL RIGHTS RESERVED THE VIOLA MUSIC OF YORK BOWEN: LIONEL TERTIS, YORK BOWEN, AND THE RISE OF THE VIOLA IN EARLY TWENTIETH-CENTURY ENGLAND William Kenton Lanier, Candidate for the Master of Music Degree in Musicology University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2020 ABSTRACT The viola owes its current reputation largely to the tireless efforts of Lionel Tertis (1876-1975), who, perhaps more than any other individual, brought the viola to light as a solo instrument. Prior to the twentieth century, numerous composers are known to have played the viola, and some even preferred it, but none possessed the drive or saw the necessity to establish it as an equal solo counterpart to the violin or cello. Likewise, no performer before Tertis had established themselves as a renowned exponent of the viola. Tertis made it his life’s work to bring the viola to the fore, and his musical prowess and technical ability on the instrument gave him the tools to succeed. Tertis was primarily a performer, thus collaboration with composers also comprised a necessary element of his viola crusade. He commissioned works from several British composers, including one of the first and most prolific composers for the viola, York Bowen (1884-1961).
