  • The Inspiration Behind Compositions for Clarinetist Frederick Thurston
    THE INSPIRATION BEHIND COMPOSITIONS FOR CLARINETIST FREDERICK THURSTON Aileen Marie Razey, B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 201 8 APPROVED: Kimberly Cole Luevano, Major Professor Warren Henry, Committee Member John Scott, Committee Member John Holt, Chair of the Division of Instrumental Studies Benjamin Brand, Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music John Richmond, Dean of the College of Music Victor Prybutok, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Razey, Aileen Marie. The Inspiration behind Compositions for Clarinetist Frederick Thurston. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), August 2018, 86 pp., references, 51 titles. Frederick Thurston was a prominent British clarinet performer and teacher in the first half of the 20th century. Due to the brevity of his life and the impact of two world wars, Thurston’s legacy is often overlooked among clarinetists in the United States. Thurston’s playing inspired 19 composers to write 22 solo and chamber works for him, none of which he personally commissioned. The purpose of this document is to provide a comprehensive biography of Thurston’s career as clarinet performer and teacher with a complete bibliography of compositions written for him. With biographical knowledge and access to the few extant recordings of Thurston’s playing, clarinetists may gain a fuller understanding of Thurston’s ideal clarinet sound and musical ideas. These resources are necessary in order to recognize the qualities about his playing that inspired composers to write for him and to perform these works with the composers’ inspiration in mind. Despite the vast list of works written for and dedicated to Thurston, clarinet players in the United States are not familiar with many of these works, and available resources do not include a complete listing.

    British Piano Concertos Stanford • Vaughan Williams Hoddinott • Williamson Finzi • Foulds • Bridge Rawsthorne • Ireland Busch • Moeran Berkeley • Scott 1 DISC ONE 77’20” The following Scherzo falls into four parts: a fluent and ascending melody; an oppressive dance in 10/6; a return to the first section and finally the culmination of the movement where SIR CHARLES VILLIERS STANFORD (1852-1924) all the previous material collides and reaches a violent apotheosis. Of considerable metrical 1-3 intricacy, this movement derives harmonically and melodically from a four-note motif. 1st Movement: Allegro moderato 15’39” Marked , the slow movement is a set of variations which unfolds in a 2nd Movement: Adagio molto 11’32” flowing 3/2 time. Inward-looking, this is the concerto’s emotional core, its wistful opening 3rd Movement: Allegro molto 10’19” for piano establishing a mood of restrained lamentation whilst the shattering brass Malcolm Binns, piano motifs introduce a more agonized form of grief, close to raging despair. The cadenza brings London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Nicholas Braithwaite some measure of peace. In the extrovert Finale, the first movement’s orchestration and metres are From SRCD219 ADD c 1985 recalled and the soloist goads the orchestra, with its ebullience restored, towards ever-greater feats of rhythmical dexterity. This typically exultant finale, in modified rondo form, re- GERALD FINZI (1901-1956) affirms the concerto’s tonal centre of E flat. 4 Though technically brilliant, it is the concerto’s unabashed lyricism

  • Raphael Wallfisch
    EDITOR’S LUNCH: Raphael Wallfisch His warm, powerful sound and generous-spirited musicianship make him a favourite soloist the world over. His restoration of repertoire rarities is a vibrant legacy. And he’s a great guy, too. Jessica Duchen gets Raphael Wallfisch to put his cello in the cloakroom and sample some of London’s best Italian cuisine… by Jessica Duchen, 11 May 2015 When Raphael Wallfisch suggests that we go Italian for our Amati lunch date, I suspect he’s thinking about a good bowl of spag bol. I’m planning, though, to give him more than he bargained for. Theo Randall at the Intercontinental has been named Best Italian Restaurant of The Year by the London Restaurant Awards and was the highest ranked Italian on the Sunday Times Food List 2013. Opened in November 2006 by the chef who had spent 17 years at the River Café, its ambience is of the chromy, understated, upmarket type – but nouvelle cuisine this ain’t. Instead it’s the sort of phenomenal-quality, home-cooked comfort food you might be served to help you settle in on your first day in heaven. Tucking into a lavish helping of controfilletto di manzo – beef with a glory of mixed vegetables in aged balsamic vinegar – with a glass of nearly ebony-hued Barolo wine to match, Wallfisch, 62, seems a happy man. He is a suitably beefy cellist, with a generous, enveloping sound and a straightforward, to-the-point musicality that powers him through anything from the Bach suites to the inspiring quantity of rare repertoire that he has helped to bring to wider note.
