Midwestern Gilbert and Sullivan Society
NEWSLETTER OF THE MIDWESTERN GILBERT AND SULLIVAN SOCIETY September 1990 -- Issue 27 But the night has been long, Ditto, Ditto my song, And thank goodness they're both of 'em over! It isn't so much that the night was long, but that the Summer was (or wasn't, as the case may be). This was not one of S/A Cole's better seasons: in June, her family moved to Central Illinois; in July, the computer had a head crash that took until August to fix, and in that month, she was tired and sick from all the summer excitement. But, tush, I am puling. Now that Autumn is nearly here, things are getting back to normal (such as that is). Since there was no summer Nonsense, there is all kinds of stuff in this issue, including the answers to the Big Quiz, an extended "Where Can it Be?/The G&S Shopper", reports on the Sullivan Festival and MGS Annual Outing, and an analysis of Thomas Stone's The Savoyards' Patience. Let's see what's new. First of all, we owe the Savoy-Aires an apology. Oh, Members, How Say You, S/A Cole had sincerely believed that an issue of the What is it You've Done? Nonsense would be out in time to promote their summer production of Yeomen. As we know now, Member David Michaels appeared as the "First no Nonsense came out, and the May one didn't even Yeomen" in the Savoy-Aires' recent production of mention their address. Well, we're going to start to The Yeomen of the Guard. -

Photograph © Robbie Jack. The 20th century has been good for opera in many ways. Opera has become a familiar household product on television and on compact disc. It is used and appreciated by - or, rather, its best, most memorable musical moments are familiar to - a wider pub lic around the world than ever before. It has been well funded - both by generous rich patrons and out of state subsidy. It may be an exclusive, demanding and elitist art-form - as its enemies fre quently say - but it continues to mobilize a public that has grown more passionate about its virtues and attractions as the century wears on. It is controversial and often in the news. People care when opera-houses burn down, which unlike churches and cathe drals they are very prone to do. Opera-houses have been built and old stages have been refurbished. The opera-house in Sydney is an icon of modern architecture, an acknowledged thing of great beauty, though as a practical opera-house it is very far from ideal. -

Silas Marner
EXPLORING DISPLACEMENT AS A THEORETICAL PARADIGM FOR UNDERSTANDING JOHN JOUBERT’S OPERA SILAS MARNER Stephanie Vos Thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Music at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Dr. S.J.v.Z. Muller December 2009 DECLARATION By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the owner of the copyright thereof (unless to the extent explicitly otherwise stated) and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: 24 November 2009 Copyright © 2009 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved Abstract In a world of increased mobility, a growing number of people find themselves in places other than those that they originate from. While a strong case has been made in various disciplines for the experiences of alienation and disruption emanating from the politically tinctured notion of exile, this thesis argues that these experiences affect all émigrés alike, be it the consequence of forced or voluntary migration. It is this study’s aim to nuance the understanding of displacement and explore the ways in which the exile discourse informs a general, less extreme discourse of voluntary displacement with specific reference to the composer John Joubert and his opera Silas Marner. In the first chapter, displacement is theorized as a doubleness or ambivalence that is important in understanding creative work done by those who have been displaced and that is informed, in the South African composer’s case, by the relationship between the centre of ‘the’ art music tradition in Europe and Britain and its ‘peripheral’ practice in South Africa. -
