To have to herself alone such a fine tower of cake where the seaweed does intertwine with the precious coral snake”. She danced like a candle. “Ah, who would not be me? To keep her bed all day, embowered in a tree that springs from the cellars, all flushed with wedding wine and drops its white dew on me, at dawn when I dine”.

  • Elgar/Payne Symphony No3. an Introduction by Anthony Payne
    Elgar/Payne Symphony No3. An Introduction by Anthony Payne I first came across the sketches for Elgar's Third Symphony at the end of W H Reed's book Elgar as I Knew Him. The majority of the most important pages are reproduced there in facsimile and I was immediately fascinated by the power and vitality of the music. It simply leapt from the page, and although most of the sketches were in short score, with only a few instrumental indications, I immediately began to hear orchestral sounds in my head. I knew that on his deathbed Elgar had placed an embargo on attempts to complete the work, on what he called "tinkering" with it; but I felt this could not prevent me from musing over the sketches in the privacy of my room, and I used to follow them through, aided by Reed's account of how he played them on his violin with Elgar at the piano. It was music that seemed to me to show Elgar in inspirational flight, and it gave the lie to received opinion that he had become a spent force after the death of his wife. The history of the Symphony has been well documented, but it is worth repeating the basic facts. Elgar's old friend George Bernard Shaw had often badgered the composer about producing a third symphony, and early in 1932 he renewed his attack, suggesting that the BBC might be persuaded to commission it. This time Elgar half rose to the bait. He had recently orchestrated Chopin's Funeral March, and when he was asked by a critic if the rest of Chopin's sonata could be orchestrated to make a symphony, he replied that he would sooner write one of his own.

Restoring music’s value by turning inwards and closing ranks may seem strange to us in an age when the constant accessibility of music has become a cultural assumption, yet Schoenberg believed that elevating the currency, purity of expression and mystique of music inevitably meant a degree of exclusivity.

  • Over 100 Opera Makers
    #OPERAHARMONY CREATING OPERAS IN ISOLATION 1 3 WELCOME TO #OPERA HARMONY FROM FOUNDER – ELLA MARCHMENT Welcome to #OperaHarmony. #Opera Harmony is a collection of opera makers from across the world who, during this time of crisis, formed an online community to create new operas. I started this initiative when the show that I was rehearsing at Dutch National Opera was cancelled because of the lockdown. Using social media and online platforms I invited colleagues worldwide to join me in the immense technical and logistical challenge of creating new works online. I set the themes of ‘distance’ and ‘community’, organised artist teams, and since March have been overseeing the creation of twenty new operas. All the artists involved in #OperaHarmony are highly skilled professionals who typically apply their talents in creating live theatre performances. Through this project, they have had to adapt to working in a new medium, as well as embracing new technologies and novel ways of creating, producing, and sharing work. #OperaHarmony’s goal was to bring people together in ways that were unimaginable prior to Covid-19. Over 100 artists from all the opera disciplines have collaborated to write, stage, record, and produce the new operas. The pieces encapsulate an incredibly dark period for the arts, and they are a symbol of the unstoppable determination, and community that exists to perform and continue to create operatic works. This has been my saving grace throughout lockdown, and it has given all involved a sense of purpose. When we started building these works we had no idea how they would eventually be realised, and it is with great thanks that we acknowledge the support of Opera Vision in helping to both distribute and disseminate these pieces, and also for establishing a means in which audiences can be invited into the heart of the process too .

  • Scottish M Usic Review
    w e i v e r Voicing Pierrot c i My Personal Journey s u Jane Manning m h October 7, 2016 s i t t To say that Pierrot Lunaire has been crucial to my career would be an understatement. It’s the o single work that has most influenced my development, shaped my attitudes to rehearsing andper- c s forming, and taught me about the way the voice works. It featured in my first BBC ‘live’ broadcast in 1965 and I’ve derived endless inspiration and joy from performing it at regular intervals, with many different ensembles in many countries, in a rich variety of situations. My earliest experiences were, inevitably, self-centred. I actively avoided hearing other performances for many years, feeling vulnerable, and fearful of having my confidence undermined, or, worse, of lapsing into unconscious imitation. But in recent years I’ve found it stimulating and beneficial to hear and imbibe others’ performances. My repertoire has, meanwhile, expanded to encompass many other substantial and challenging twentieth century pieces. It’s been helpful to get to know more of Schoenberg’s own life, and to be able to place the work in a wider context. This process of collating and assimilating information and influences is of course never-ending. Even taking time to muse and cogitate can yield sudden unexpected flashes of insight and new perspectives. Artistic instincts have always to be kept sharpened, ready to embrace the flood of new ideas that occur with virtually every reading of this extraordinary work. The re-discovery and commercial release, in 2005, on Regis/Forum of one of my very earliest performances could not help but evoke a mood of especially piquant personal reminiscence.

  • Susan Bradshaw – an Inspiration and a Force in the Musical Life of This Country for Half a Century
    Susan Bradshaw – an inspiration and a force in the musical life of this country for half a century. Susan’s lifelong journey through 20th century music began during her student years, both in and outside the Royal Academy of Music. Whatever she knew before, it was her friends and teachers at the RAM and, soon after, her growing range of contacts with her contemporaries in Britain and then abroad that set her mind moving and most profoundly shaped her outlook. Her piano teacher at the Academy was Harold Craxton. It was his approach to Bach that she most often recalled to her own pupils in later years. Her composition teachers were Mátyás Seiber, with whom she studied privately, and Howard Ferguson, who was her RAM professor. From both she learnt scrupulous musical honesty. Seiber encouraged her to take an analytical view, to hone her sense of the right note in the right place. Through him she found herself connected, at least by proxy, to the Eastern European world of Bartók and Kodály. Ferguson was different. Despite his Irish background, his musical roots were English and in the solidly old-fashioned and classical traditions of R.O.Morris and Harold Samuel. Susan was amusing about Howard’s teaching methods. Apparently, when he could think of nothing to tell her or when she turned up unprepared for her lesson, they would pass the time working their way through the piano duet repertory. She remembered those occasions fondly, describing the experience as ‘like being in the workshop of a mediaeval artist’ - one absorbed by example.
