September 2009 SOUNDBOARD A Newsletter for Church Musicians Number 19 September 2009 Finally, after long deliberations, SOUNDBOARD has gone colour. WHAT’S IN THIS ISSUE?

    Mission site, St. Augustine, Florida CHURCH MUSIC SINCE VATICAN II It is impossible to consider the future of Catholic church music without an understanding of the reasons for the recent reform and the situation which caused it. At one time the Church was the main influence on the development of music; she employed musicians on a large scale and inspired many great com­ posers. Today this has changed and musical patronage is largely the concern of the state and the broadcasting and recording companies. Inevitably, this has made the practice of liturgical music a bleak and uninviting task for most profes­ sional musicians. When one recalls the great Catholic composers of the past­ Palestrina, Byrd, Victoria, Dufay, Josquin-and also the great secular composers who wrote for the liturgy-Monteverdi, Mozart and Haydn-one can see the decline that has taken place. Immediately before the II Vatican Council contemporary Catholic music was largely uninspired and provoked little interest. Even the potential of a Catholic composer such as Elgar was left unexplored. The output of our musicians was slight in comparison with the period of the renaissance and it seemed that little MA WBY: CHURCH MUSIC 3 could be done to remedy the situation. The general standard of Catholic choirs was low. There were exceptions, but one can well remember when the Sunday sung Mass was usually avoided by most Catholics. Church music had to be endured and it had ceased to have any real contact with the ordinary Catholic. Music, whose main purpose is the communication of beauty, had by and large ceased to communicate.

  • CUL Keller Archive Catalogue
    HANS KELLER ARCHIVE: working copy A1: Unpublished manuscripts, 1940-49 A1/1: Unpublished manuscripts, 1940-49: independent work This section contains all Keller’s unpublished manuscripts dating from the 1940s, apart from those connected with his collaboration with Margaret Phillips (see A1/2 below). With the exception of one pocket diary from 1938, the Archive contains no material prior to his arrival in Britain at the end of that year. After his release from internment in 1941, Keller divided himself between musical and psychoanalytical studies. As a violinist, he gained the LRAM teacher’s diploma in April 1943, and was relatively active as an orchestral and chamber-music player. As a writer, however, his principal concern in the first half of the decade was not music, but psychoanalysis. Although the majority of the musical writings listed below are undated, those which are probably from this earlier period are all concerned with the psychology of music. Similarly, the short stories, poems and aphorisms show their author’s interest in psychology. Keller’s notes and reading-lists from this period indicate an exhaustive study of Freudian literature and, from his correspondence with Margaret Phillips, it appears that he did have thoughts of becoming a professional analyst. At he beginning of 1946, however, there was a decisive change in the focus of his work, when music began to replace psychology as his principal subject. It is possible that his first (accidental) hearing of Britten’s Peter Grimes played an important part in this change, and Britten’s music is the subject of several early articles.

    Cantate 17 Our program today features the choirs of Westminster Cathedral in London. Westminster Cathedral is one of the greatest secrets of London; people heading down Victoria Street on the well-trodden route to more famous sites are astonished to come across a piazza opening up the view to an extraordinary facade of towers, balconies and domes. The architecture of Westminster Cathedral certainly sets it apart from other London landmarks, owing more to the Byzantine style of the eastern Roman Empire than the familiar Gothic of their native cathedrals. Its uniqueness is, however, not merely in its external form. Visitors find in Westminster Cathedral a very special place of prayer, a refuge from the busy city, a space to find one's own thoughts. This spiritual atmosphere, shaped through the silence as well as through the music of its celebrated choir, is the chief glory of the Cathedral, and the most extraordinary treasure to be discovered by visitors. Westminster Cathedral Choir is widely considered to be one of the finest choirs in the world. The establishment of a fine choral foundation was part of the original vision of the founder of Westminster Cathedral, Cardinal Herbert Vaughan. Vaughan laid great emphasis on the beauty and integrity of the new Cathedral’s liturgy, and regarded a residential choir school as essential to the realization of his vision. Daily sung Masses and Offices were immediately established when the Cathedral opened in 1903, and have continued without interruption ever since. Today, Westminster Cathedral Choir is the only professional Catholic choir in the world to sing daily Mass and Vespers.

    Music for Galway & Galway 2020 present SoundScapes 4 Welcome It gives us enormous pleasure and pride to unveil this exceptional series of concerts which Music for Galway has programmed as part of Galway 2020, European Capital of Culture. This once-in-a-generation opportunity for Galway city and county has allowed us to programme on a more ambitious scale than anyone would ever have thought possible. In this brochure you will find details of all of our concert offerings throughout the calendar year 2020. Our year starts and ends with the magnificent music of Beethoven, a quarter of a millenium old. Between these milestones of the Midwinter Festival in January and the Ninth Symphony in December, we unveil the first edition of Cellissimo, our new triennial festival, in April / May, featuring a dazzling array of music and musicians. In June we present Paper Boat, a newly-commissioned community opera celebrating 700 years of St Nicholas Collegiate Church. Throughout the year, and commencing on Good Friday, we present Abendmusik, a new series of Sunday concerts, also in St. Nicholas’ Church. We also include details of our Autumn 2019 series, acting as a kind of bookend or lead-up to the exciting events of 2020. We look forward to an unforgettable year of music!
