  • Obituary of Sir James Darling

Geelong’s master of inspiration Sir James Ralph Darling, OBE Headmaster of Geelong Grammar School, 1930-61. Chairman of the Australian Broadcasting Commission, 1961-67. Born Tonbridge, England, June 18, 1899. Died Melbourne, November 1, aged 96. ALTHOUGH James Ralph Darling, the second child of an Englishman, Augustine Major Darling, and his Scottish wife, Jane Baird, nee Nimmo, did not settle in Australia until he was nearly 30, he was to become a great Australian. Not only was he generally recognised as one, but he was also officially designated one of200 “Great Australians” in Australia’s Bicentennial year, 1988. Of the 200—22 then living—Darling was the only headmaster, public www.humancondition.com/darling-obituary * indicates a link 2 World Transformation Movement recognition there by being given to an exceptional, indeed unique, influence in the nation as an educator. It was as headmaster of Geelong Grammar School, an Anglican foundation dating from 1855 and, in his day, mainly a boarding school for boys, that he began to make his mark from 1930. He was educated at the preparatory school in Tonbridge run by his father, then at Repton, a boarding school in Derbyshire. After war and postwar service as a Second Lieutenant in the Royal Field Artillery in France and occupied Germany in 1918-19, he went to Oriel College, Oxford, where he read history. From 1921 to 1924 he taught in a rather tough school, Merchant Taylors’ in Liverpool, and then at one of the greater public schools, Charterhouse in Surrey, until his appointment to Geelong Grammar.

We have the lowest population density in the world, with only two people per square kilometre. Australia is one of the world’s oldest land masses. It is the sixth largest country in the world. It is also the driest inhabited continent, so in most parts of Australia water is a very precious resource. Much of the land has poor soil, with only 6 per cent suitable for agriculture. The dry inland areas are called ‘the Australia is one of the world’s oldest land masses. outback’. There is great respect for people who live and work in these remote and harsh environments. Many of It is the sixth largest country in the world. them have become part of Australian folklore. Because Australia is such a large country, the climate varies in different parts of the continent. There are tropical regions in the north of Australia and deserts in the centre. Further south, the temperatures can change from cool winters with mountain snow, to heatwaves in summer. In addition to the six states and two mainland territories, the Australian Government also administers, as territories, Ashmore and Cartier Islands, Christmas Island, the Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Jervis Bay Territory, the Coral Sea Islands, Heard Island and McDonald Islands in the Australian Antarctic Territory, and Norfolk Island.

  • 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.
