Of all the Delian scholars, he made a unique and singular contribution to our knowledge of the detail behind the music. His definitive Catalogue of the Compositions of Frederick Delius and Frederick Delius: A Supplementary Catalogue are unlikely ever to need more than a tweak or two of revision in the future, if at all, and his scholarship is a model for anyone else undertaking a similar task for another composer. He was also a brilliant writer of articles and programme notes. Delius was not, of course, his only musical love – for Liszt, Janáček and particularly Rachmaninoff, were all extremely important to him. By the time members read this, we will have had a Memorial Concert for Robert at The Royal Over-Seas League – a mix of tributes from people who knew him well and appropriate music performed, in the main, by some up-and-coming musicians who have taken part in the final of The Delius Prize over the past few years – something that would have especially pleased him. You can read a report of this event on page 129. One of the perennial problems with which the Committee has to wrestle is setting up the AGM. On its own it would certainly not attract a sufficient number of Members, and it must be linked to an occasion that is likely to be reasonably popular. In the past it has sometimes been on the same day as The Delius Prize – which this year will return to The Royal Academy, where it was originally held, and details of which can be found on page 137. Unfortunately, however, for various reasons we shall have to hold the preliminary round of the Prize in the afternoon, and the final in the evening – leaving no time for the AGM. The Committee has therefore decided to hold the AGM in the Autumn, alongside a talk from Lewis Foreman – more details in the Forthcoming Events section on page 137. My wife insists that I should say something about Delius and his Music which so far has received a good number of complimentary reviews. Paul Guinery and I discussed our approach to the book on BBC Radio 3 in an edition of Music Matters on 14th February; the programme also included a positive assessment by Prof Daniel Grimley of Oxford University, who is himself writing a book on Delius and whom some Members will remember giving a talk to the London Branch. Piers Burton-Page, in a review for DSJ 157 5 International Record Review, described the book as ‘surely destined to be the standard volume for many years to come’, in which case our five years of work will certainly have been worthwhile. Martin Lee-Browne Reviews of Delius and his Music, by Robert Matthew-Walker and Tony Summers are on page 85. 6 DSJ 157 THE FUTURE OF THE DELIUS SOCIETY Over the last few years I have been supported by a marvellous Committee – but, very sadly indeed, our Vice-Chairman, Chris Green (who has played a major part in organising some of our events) now feels that, because of his increasing commitments in connection with The Courtyard Arts Trust in Hereford and elsewhere, he must retire at this year’s AGM. Furthermore, Peter Watts has indicated his intention to retire as the Society’s Treasurer in another two years or so. Finally, I am finding travelling up to London for meetings increasingly difficult and as old-age beckons, I am not sure how much longer I shall feel like coping with the hassle! Needless to say, none of us wants to leave the Society in the lurch, but no one is indispensable or can go on for ever! All members will know that over the last few years I have appealed

  • Syphilis' Impact on Late Works of Classical Music Composers

    Syphilis' Impact on Late Works of Classical Music Composers

    SYPHILIS’ IMPACT ON LATE WORKS OF CLASSICAL MUSIC COMPOSERS Rempelakos L1, Poulakou-Rebelakou E1, Tsiamis C1, Rempelakos A2 1History of Medicine, Athens University Medical School, Athens, Greece 2Urologic Department, Hippocrateion Hospital, Athens, Greece INTRODUCTION & OBJECTIVE: To present the effects of the tertiary stage syphilis on the last works of some famous European classical music composers who suffered from the disease. METHODS: The review of the biographies of seven documented syphilis cases of composers, focusing on the events of their last period of life and the review of the critics for their artistic expression under disease-affected circumstances. RESULTS: The 19th century is undeniably considered as the golden age of classical music but, at the same time, some of the most famous composers were victims of this disease-menace, strongly stigmatizing themselves and their families, the latter trying to keep the shameful secret, aftermath destructing sources and documents. Seven cases of musicians with syphilis have been studied: Franz Schubert died at the age of 31, while Robert Schumann and Hugo Wolf (age at death 46 and 43 respectively), both attempted suicide and passed the rest of their lives in insane asylums. Moreover, Gaetano Donizetti infected his wife, Virginia, who died in childbirth before his own death occurring between catatonic symptoms and bouts of persecution mania. Bedrich Smetana predicted his death entitling his composition “final page” and indeed, he did not compose anymore and died soon in a mental asylum. Frederick Delius lived for fifteen years blind and paralyzed dictating his scores to a young follower of his music, although the quality of the late compositions cannot be compared with the priors.

  • Disability and Music

    Disability and Music

    th nd 19 November to 22 December UKDHM 2018 will focus on Disability and Music. We want to explore the links between the experience of disablement in a world where the barriers faced by people with impairments can be overwhelming. Yet the creative impulse, urge for self expression and the need to connect to our fellow human beings often ‘trumps’ the oppression we as disabled people have faced, do face and will face in the future. Each culture and sub-culture creates identity and defines itself by its music. ‘Music is the language of the soul. To express ourselves we have to be vibrating, radiating human beings!’ Alasdair Fraser. Born in Salford in 1952, polio survivor Alan Holdsworth goes by the stage name ‘Johnny Crescendo’. His music addresses civil rights, disability pride and social injustices, making him a crucial voice of the movement and one of the best-loved performers on the disability arts circuit. In 1990 and 1992, Alan co- organised Block Telethon, a high-profile media and community campaign which culminated in the demise of the televised fundraiser. His albums included Easy Money, Pride and Not Dead Yet, all of which celebrate disabled identity and critique disabling barriers and attitudes. He is best known for his song Choices and Rights, which became the anthem for the disabled people’s movement in Britain in the late 1980s and includes the powerful lyrics: Choices and Right That’s what we gotta fight for Choices and rights in our lives I don’t want your benefit I want dignity from where I sit I want choices and rights in our lives I don’t want you to speak for me I got my own autonomy I want choices and rights in our lives https://youtu.be/yU8344cQy5g?t=14 The polio virus attacked the nerves.

    Percy Grainger, Frederick Delius and the 1914–1934 American ‘Delius Campaign’

    ‘The Art-Twins of Our Timestretch’: Percy Grainger, Frederick Delius and the 1914–1934 American ‘Delius Campaign’ Catherine Sarah Kirby Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Music (Musicology) April 2015 Melbourne Conservatorium of Music The University of Melbourne Produced on archival quality paper Abstract This thesis explores Percy Grainger’s promotion of the music of Frederick Delius in the United States of America between his arrival in New York in 1914 and Delius’s death in 1934. Grainger’s ‘Delius campaign’—the title he gave to his work on behalf of Delius— involved lectures, articles, interviews and performances as both a pianist and conductor. Through this, Grainger was responsible for a number of noteworthy American Delius premieres. He also helped to disseminate Delius’s music by his work as a teacher, and through contact with publishers, conductors and the press. In this thesis I will examine this campaign and the critical reception of its resulting performances, and question the extent to which Grainger’s tireless promotion affected the reception of Delius’s music in the USA. To give context to this campaign, Chapter One outlines the relationship, both personal and compositional, between Delius and Grainger. This is done through analysis of their correspondence, as well as much of Grainger’s broader and autobiographical writings. This chapter also considers the relationship between Grainger, Delius and others musicians within their circle, and explores the extent of their influence upon each other. Chapter Two examines in detail the many elements that made up the ‘Delius campaign’.

    DELIUS BOOKLET:bob.qxd 14/4/08 16:09 Page 1 second piece, Summer Night on the River, is equally evocative, this time suggested by the river Loing that lay at the the story of a voodoo prince sold into slavery, based on an episode in the novel The Grandissimes by the American bottom of Delius’s garden near Fontainebleau, the kind of scene that might have been painted by some of the French writer George Washington Cable. The wedding dance La Calinda was originally a dance of some violence, leading to painters that were his contemporaries. hysteria and therefore banned. In the Florida Suite and again in Koanga it lacks anything of its original character. The opera Irmelin, written between 1890 and 1892, and the first attempt by Delius at the form, had no staged Koanga, a lyric drama in a prologue and three acts, was first heard in an incomplete concert performance at St performance until 1953, when Beecham arranged its production in Oxford. The libretto, by Delius himself, deals with James’s Hall in 1899. It was first staged at Elberfeld in 1904. With a libretto by Delius and Charles F. Keary, the plot The Best of two elements, Princess Irmelin and her suitors, none of whom please her, and the swine-herd who eventually wins is set on an eighteenth century Louisiana plantation, where the slave-girl Palmyra is the object of the attentions of her heart. The Prelude, designed as an entr’acte for the later opera Koanga, makes use of four themes from Irmelin.
