JOAN SUTHERLAND John Pritchard (1918–89)
JOAN SUTHERLAND John Pritchard (1918–89). Walthamstow-born, John Pritchard learned his craft as principal conductor of the Derby String Orchestra, before joining the music staff of Glyndebourne in 1947. Appointed Chorus Master in 1949, he was soon sharing major Mozart productions with Fritz Busch, conducting the London Philharmonic Orchestra there and swiftly expanding his repertoire. The company’s Musical Director from 1969 to 1977, he was also a regular guest at the Royal Opera, where in 1955 he conducted the premiere of Tippett’s A Midsummer Marriage. His opera and concert work encircled the globe, with periods at the helm of many companies and orchestras, notably the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic and BBC Symphony. He was knighted in 1983. Though his full diary could result in perfunctory routine, fiery theatricality and a grasp of essentials inform his best work – not least in many studio and off-air recordings made with his ‘home’, Glyndebourne company, and for BBC radio. Joan Sutherland (1926–2010). The world-renowned soprano Joan Sutherland left her Sydney home for London in 1952, with the ultimate aim of singing Wagner. Contracted to Covent Garden, she felt her future lay in heavy, dramatic roles; and her early assignments there included Amelia in Verdi’s Un ballo in maschera and the title role in Aida. Soon her breathtaking agility, crystalline staccatos and unique stratospheric purity became evident – not least as Jenifer in Tippett’s The Midsummer Marriage, followed swiftly by the doll Olympia in Offenbach’s Les contes d’Hoffmann (both 1955). Although increasingly identified with the bel canto repertoire, until her 1959 Covent Garden triumph in Donizetti’s Lucia di Lammermoor she kept her options open.

New Releasesreleases
NEWNEW RELEASESRELEASES ANATOLE FISTOULARI RUSSIAN ORCHESTRAL SUITES 1951 & 1953 Anatole Fistoulari was an exceptionally gifted Russian conductor, who made his debut at the age of seven conducting Tchaikovsky’s ‘Pathetique’ Symphony from memory, and who became one of the most important conductors of Russian music in the West after the 1917 Revolution. On this most valuable CD release, he is heard in orchestral suites from infrequently heard Russian operas, played by some of the finest orchestras, and Fistoulari brings to this rare music all the qualities of empathy and excellence for which he was famous. Now an unjustly neglected figure, this important CD will reawaken interest in one of the great 20th-century interpreters of Russian music.

Dame Joan Hammond (1912-1966) 2
AUSTRALIAN EPHEMERA COLLECTION FINDING AID DAME JOAN HILDA HOOD HAMMOND (1912-1996) PERFORMING ARTS PROGRAMS AND EPHEMERA (PROMPT) PRINTED AUSTRALIANA JULY 2018 Dame Joan Hilda Hood Hammond, DBE, CMG (24 May 1912 – 26 November 1996) was a New Zealand born Australian operatic soprano, singing coach and champion golfer. She toured widely, and became noted particularly for her Puccini roles, and appeared in the major opera houses of the world – the Royal Opera House Covent Garden, La Scala, the Vienna State Opera and the Bolshoi. Her fame in Britain came not just from her stage appearances but from her recordings. A prolific artist, Hammond's repertoire encompassed Verdi, Handel, Tchaikovsky, Massenet, Beethoven, as well as folk song, art song, and lieder. She returned to Australia for concert tours in 1946, 1949 and 1953, and starred in the second Elizabethan Theatre Trust opera season in 1957. She undertook world concert tours between 1946 and 1961. She became patron and a life member of the Victorian Opera Company (since 1976, the Victorian State Opera – VSO), and was the VSO's artistic director from 1971 until 1976 and remained on the board until 1985. Working with the then General Manager, Peter Burch, she invited the young conductor Richard Divall to become the company's Musical Director in 1972. She joined the Victorian Council of the Arts, was a member of the Australia Council for the Arts opera advisory panel, and was an Honorary Life Member of Opera Australia. She was important to the success of both the VSO and Opera Australia. Hammond embarked on a second career as a voice teacher after her performance career ended.

Quintessential Delius in quintessential performances. The greatest recordings made in stereo by the greatest British conductor at the peak of his career." Gramophone on Delius: Brigg Fair and other orchestral works, Sir Thomas Beecham In celebration of Frederick Delius’s upcoming 150th birthday in January 2012, EMI Classics releases an 18-CD set performed by some of the greatest performers of the composer’s works, such as Thomas Beecham, John Barbirolli, Vernon Handley, Eric Fenby, Malcolm Sargent, among others. EMI’s long association with the music of Delius is represented here in recordings made between 1929 and 2003 by his most noted interpreters, from ever-popular miniatures such as On Hearing the First Cuckoo in Spring to the elusive flow and sensuous textures of his operas and choral works. This definitive collection, produced with the endorsement of the Delius Society, will be supported with a comprehensive online destination, www.frederickdelius.com offering exclusive interviews, never-before-seen material and an interactive timeline to help listeners journey through the life and music of Delius. Following boxes celebrating the music of Elgar, Vaughan Williams and Britten, this set provides music lovers with an opportunity to join the ever-growing band of Delius fans throughout the world. In addition to Delius’s orchestral music, the collection features three of his operas and examples of his chamber and solo works, as well as songs. Among many highlights is a 25-minute promotional presentation given in October 1948 by Thomas Beecham for the launch of his recording of A Village Romeo and Juliet.

At that time the late James Burnett was especially helpful in providing dates for the L’Oiseau-Lyre recordings that he produced. More information was obtained from additional paperwork in association with Richard Alston for his book published to celebrate the conductor’s 70 th birthday in 1997. John Hunt’s most valuable discography devoted to the Staatskapelle Dresden was again helpful. Further updating has been undertaken in addition to the generous assistance of Philip Stuart via his LSO discography which he compiled for the Orchestra’s centenary in 2004 and has kept updated. Inevitably there are a number of missing credits for producers and engineers in the earliest years as these facts no longer survive. Additionally some exact dates have not been tracked down.

Elgar's the Dream of Gerontius
Elgar’s The Dream of Gerontius - Some personal observations on recordings of the work by John Quinn Updated 2020 This article originally appeared on MusicWeb in 2007 in connection with the 150th anniversary of the birth of Elgar and I updated it in 2014 when we marked the 80th anniversary of the death of the composer in 1934. The release in 2018 of a newly-issued 1961 live recording conducted by Sir Malcolm Sargent caused me to refer to our Masterworks Index for Gerontius whereupon I discovered, slightly to my surprise, that since my 2014 update this was the fifth recording of the work to be issued – although only two of them were brand new. In addition, I’d caught up with two earlier recordings – conducted by Sir Alexander Gibson and by Yevgeny Svetlanov – to which I’d referred in the survey though I’d not heard them. Time, then, to refresh the survey in order to include these seven recordings. For this latest 2020 revision I toyed with the idea of a fundamental re-write, considering all the recordings in chronological order. However, on reflection it seems to make more sense to retain the layout of the 2014 text and to add comments about the seven recordings not previously covered by the survey in a new section just before the summary. I have made as few changes as possible to my original 2007 text because that included detailed comments on several versions that hadn’t, at least then, been reviewed on MusicWeb International whereas the more recently released recordings have generally received full reviews at the time of issue.
