The story of women's struggles against traditional gender barriers in the American classical music community is illustrated by photographs, letters, clippings, concert programs, and other historical materials pre- served in the BSO Archives. Pictured here with her husband Georg Henschel, the BSO's first music director (1881-1884), is soprano Lillian Bailey Henschel, who appeared as a guest soloist with the Boston Symphony more than a hundred times between 1881 and 1898.

  • The Modernisation of Wind Playing in London Orchestras, 1909–1939: A
    The modernisation of wind playing in London orchestras, 1909–1939: A study of playing style in early orchestral recordings Emily Claire Worthington PhD University of York Department of Music April 2013 2 3 Abstract This is a study of performing styles among wind players in London orchestras during the period 1909–1939. Existing scholarship relating to orchestral performance in London in the early twentieth century perpetuates the notion that playing standards were, at best, unreliable until the establishment of contracted orchestras in the 1930s. In addition, existing studies of wind playing in orchestral recordings pre-1930 suggest that a plain style prevailed, with little use of vibrato or tonal flexibility, until the French woodwind schools began to influence British practices in the late 1930s. Three London orchestras are considered through a combination of archival research and recording analysis. A case study of the New Symphony Orchestra (1905–1930) challenges the notion that pre-1930 London orchestras were ill-disciplined and lacking in corporate identity. The NSO’s recordings document a hyper-expressive performance style founded on the use of temporal flexibility, which bears relation to styles observed among pianists, singers and string players of the period. Attention then turns to London’s first ‘permanent’ orchestras, the BBC Symphony Orchestra and London Philharmonic Orchestra. Documentary evidence shows that the two ensembles were established to fulfill two very different ideals of orchestral performance and musical aesthetic. Comparison of the orchestras’ recordings is used to establish how this led to the emergence of two contrasting styles of playing in their wind sections, both of which nonetheless represented a move away from the style of the NSO.

Michael Brocken. Farnham, UK: Ashgate, 2015. vii + 236 pp. ISBN 978-1-4724-3399-2 (hardcover). While there is no shortage of Beatles-related scholarship, there are few, if any, book-length studies of Beatles-related tourism. Michael Brocken’s The Twenty-First-Century Legacy of The Beatles: Liverpool and Popular Music Heritage Tourism aims to fill this gap by weaving together three threads: (1) a history of Liverpool that focuses on its musical spaces, tourism, and economy; (2) a theoretical justification of the study of musical tourism; and (3) reports on ethnographic studies of tourist experiences. These three threads provide varying degrees of insight. Most illuminating are the passages on Liverpool’s history. As a native resident, the author has easy access to interviews with locals, and the information they provide reveals facets of the city’s relation to the Beatles that other biographies often overlook.
