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 It is the first study to examine Raeburn’s archive, and is supported with unpublished memoirs, private papers and recorded interviews with colleagues, collaborators and artists.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. -
The English Concert – Biography
The English Concert – Biography The English Concert is one of Europe’s leading chamber orchestras specialising in historically informed performance. Created by Trevor Pinnock in 1973, the orchestra appointed Harry Bicket as its Artistic Director in 2007. Bicket is renowned for his work with singers and vocal collaborators, including in recent seasons Lucy Crowe, Elizabeth Watts, Sarah Connolly, Joyce DiDonato, Alice Coote and Iestyn Davies. The English Concert has a wide touring brief and the 2014-15 season will see them appear both across the UK and abroad. Recent highlights include European and US tours with Alice Coote, Joyce DiDonato, David Daniels and Andreas Scholl as well as the orchestra’s first tour to mainland China. Harry Bicket directed The English Concert and Choir in Bach’s Mass in B Minor at the 2012 Leipzig Bachfest and later that year at the BBC proms, a performance that was televised for BBC4. Following the success of Handel’s Radamisto in New York 2013, Carnegie Hall has commissioned one Handel opera each season from The English Concert. Theodora followed in early 2014, which toured West Coast of the USA as well as the Théâtre des Champs Elysées Paris and the Barbican London followed by a critically acclaimed tour of Alcina in October 2014. Future seasons will see performances of Handel’s Hercules and Orlando. The English Concert’s discography includes more than 100 recordings with Trevor Pinnock for Deutsche Grammophon Archiv, and a series of critically acclaimed CDs for Harmonia Mundi with violinist Andrew Manze. Recordings with Harry Bicket have been widely praised, including Lucy Crowe’s debut solo recital, Il caro Sassone. -

Carleton College Music Department Style Sheet Documenting Sources
Carleton College Music Department Style Sheet Documenting Sources in Music Papers To avoid unnecessary footnotes, the Music Department uses the “author-date” system for documenting sources used in papers. Within the text, references should by cited by surname of the author, followed by the year of publication in parentheses; for example, “Jones (1970) has shown that . .” When identifying a direct quotation or paraphrase, the page number is appended to the author-date citation which follows the quotation: “The first forty-five bars of the Eroica Symphony comprise one of the most raked-over pieces of musical property in the Western hemisphere” (Burnham 1995, p. 4). When there are two authors, cite both names, as (Smith & Jones 1973). When there are more than two authors, cite all authors the first time the reference occurs. In subsequent citations give the surname of the first author followed by et al. and the year of publication, as (Smith, Jones, & Cooper 1975) and (Smith et al. 1975). A bibliography then follows at the end of the paper. The following examples show the bibliography format for various source types:1 For a book: Burnham, Scott. 1995. Beethoven Hero. Princeton: Princeton University Press. For an article in a journal: Handel, Stephen. 1973. Temporal Segmentation of Repeating Auditory Patterns. Journal of Experimental Psychology, 101, pp. 46-54. For an essay or chapter in an anthology of collected essays: Estes, W. K. 1972. An Associative Basis for Coding and Organizing in Memory. In A.W. Melton & E. Martin (Eds.), Coding processes in human memory. Washington, DC: Winston, pp. 107-132.
