  • A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company
    A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company Sally Elizabeth Drew A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Arts and Humanities Department of Music This work was supported by the Arts & Humanities Research Council September 2018 1 2 Abstract This thesis examines the working culture of the Decca Record Company, and how group interaction and individual agency have made an impact on the production of music recordings. Founded in London in 1929, Decca built a global reputation as a pioneer of sound recording with access to the world’s leading musicians. With its roots in manufacturing and experimental wartime engineering, the company developed a peerless classical music catalogue that showcased technological innovation alongside artistic accomplishment. This investigation focuses specifically on the contribution of the recording producer at Decca in creating this legacy, as can be illustrated by the career of Christopher Raeburn, the company’s most prolific producer and specialist in opera and vocal repertoire. It is the first study to examine Raeburn’s archive, and is supported with unpublished memoirs, private papers and recorded interviews with colleagues, collaborators and artists. Using these sources, the thesis considers the history and functions of the staff producer within Decca’s wider operational structure in parallel with the personal aspirations of the individual in exerting control, choice and authority on the process and product of recording. Having been recruited to Decca by John Culshaw in 1957, Raeburn’s fifty-year career spanned seminal moments of the company’s artistic and commercial lifecycle: from assisting in exploiting the dramatic potential of stereo technology in Culshaw’s Ring during the 1960s to his serving as audio producer for the 1990 The Three Tenors Concert international phenomenon.

  • Lucia Di Lammermoor
    July 30, 2020 – Gaetano Donizetti’s Lucia di Lammermoor “Lammermoor lass goes mad, stabs fiancée to death” is the headline that might have appeared in The Scotsman following the premiere of Gaetano Donizetti’s Lucia di Lammermoor, which is featured on this week’s Thursday Night Opera House. Loosely based on Sir Walter Scott’s historical novel The Bride of Lammermoor, the opera benefitted greatly from a European interest in the history and culture of Scotland: the perceived romance of its violent wars and feuds, as well as its folklore and mythology, intrigued nineteenth-century readers and audiences. Lucia premiered on September 26, 1835 at the Teatro San Carlo in Naples. It has always been the best-known of Donizetti's tragic operas and has never fallen out of the standard repertory. In seventeenth-century Scotland, Lucia (soprano Andrea Rost) loves Edgardo (tenor Bruce Ford), the dispossessed master of Ravenswood and an enemy of her family. The couple exchange rings and vows before Edgardo leaves the country on a mission, and Lucia’s brother Enrico (baritone Anthony Michaels-Moore), learning of this, is outraged. He wants his sister to make a politically advantageous marriage to Lord Arturo Bucklaw (tenor Paul Charles Clark) and shows her a forged letter supposedly written by Edgardo that “proves” his infidelity. In the light of this and persuaded by the chaplain Raimondo (bass Alastair Miles), Lucia reluctantly agrees to the marriage. Months later Edgardo returns, interrupts the wedding celebration, curses Lucia and flings her ring at her, provoking Enrico to challenge him to a duel in the Ravenswood cemetery.

Dezember 2018 KKL Luzern · Konzertsaal «How To Train Your Dragon» © 2010 DreamWorks Animation LLC. All Rights Reserved LIEBE FILMMUSIK - FREUNDE Es freut uns, Ihnen heute DreamWorks’ «How to Train Your Dragon» als Konzert-Erlebnis hier im KKL Luzern E präsentieren zu dürfen. Ganz besonders hier im Konzertsaal begrüssen möchte ich zudem den preisgekrönten Kompo- nisten John Powell, er uns während des Weltpremiere-Wochenendes mit seiner Anwesenheit beehrt. «How to Train Your Dragon» von DreamWorks Animations ist eine ebenso fesselnde wie originelle Geschichte, die Humor, feurige Action und episches Abenteuer miteinander kombiniert. Als der junge Wikinger Hiccup mit den Traditionen seines Volkes bricht und sich mit dem wilden Drachen Toothless anfreun- det, müssen sie zusammen in der Folge gegen alle Wid- rigkeiten kämpfen, um ihre beiden Welten zu retten. John Powells atemberaubende, von keltischer Musik inspirierte Partitur begleitet die Abenteuer von Hiccup und Toothless mit starken musikalischen Themen, die meisterhaft in tosende Action, herzerwär- mende Romantik und unbeschwerten Humor verwoben werden, was in einem unvergesslichen Musikerlebnis resultiert. Ich wünsche Ihnen im Namen der Musikerinnen und Musiker des City Light Symphony Orchestra, der Sängerinnen und Sänger der London Voices sowie des musikalischen Leiters Ernst van Tiel ein vergnügli- ches, berührendes und mitreissendes Konzerterlebnis.

So too were the marching bands in which he played clarinet as a young student. Learning the basic European DU canon in front of the family Magnavox, Adams readily O assimilated it alongside the crazy quilt of American vernacular R music he encountered in the early postwar decades. Duke Ellington is a recurrent inspiration, and Adams’s love of jazz— which returns in unexpected forms, such as the improvisatory NT I “hypermelody” of the Violin Concerto (1993) or the electric violin’s raga-like musings in The Dharma at Big Sur (2003)— was early nurtured by his parents’ activities in jazz groups. As a student at Harvard during the cataclysmic upheavals of the late Sixties, Adams experienced the cognitive dissonance of the arid pronouncements of contemporary serialists when confronted with the fresh, Dionysian inventiveness of this golden age of rock.
