Lewis Granom: His Significance for the Flute in The LEWIS GRANOM: HIS SIGNIFICANCE FOR THE FLUTE IN THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY HELEN CROWN Student number: 0835930 Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of PhD, School of Music, Cardiff University May 2013 Copyright © 2013 Helen Crown, all rights reserved iv ABSTRACT An article in the London Daily Advertiser, April 6 1752 makes reference to ‘Mr. Granom, whose expression in composition can only be equalled by his fire as a performer’. This quotation testifies to the extremely high regard in which the flute player Lewis Granom was held as both composer and performer, as well as implying that he was known to the music-loving public. This contrasts markedly with the lack of mention in modern musical literature. Only Hugh Arthur Scott, in his article ‘London Concerts from 1700 to 1750’, Musical Quarterly, 24/2 (1938), 194– 209 (p. 204), provides a hint of Granom’s standing in musical circles: ‘A star which rose about the same time [1719], and shone for many years afterwards, was Lewis Granom, the famous flautist, who gave a long series of concerts at Hickford’s in 1729’. This suggests that Granom should be better known, both for his compositions and for his contribution to flute pedagogy. His treatise, Plain and Easy Instructions for Playing on the German Flute (London: T. Bennett, 1766), was the first dedicated to the flute by a named English author. This thesis remedies this notable historical oversight with an examination of his life, his pedagogical work (particularly his treatise) and an analysis of his flute sonatas together with their relevant performance practice in the light of the various international influences found therein. It restores Lewis Granom to his rightful place as a significant composer and performer in the context of mid eighteenth-century English music. v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis is the result of my love of music for the baroque flute and my curiosity about what was being performed in England in the eighteenth century. I could not have undertaken this study without the Research Studentship awarded to me by the School of Music, Cardiff University, for which I am exceedingly grateful. My thanks are due to Charity Dove and all the staff at the Music library, to the staff at the British Library, Cambridge University Library and the Bodleian Library, Oxford. I am especially grateful to my supervisor, Dr David Ponsford. He has given liberally of his time, generously of his expertise, and has been hugely supportive at every stage of the process. Of my many friends and colleagues I must particularly mention Dr Maurice Byrne for his interest in this project and who generously made his notebooks and other material available to me. Dr Nancy Hadden supplied some material not available in this country, Diane Winkleby cast her professional eye over the script, although any remaining errors are entirely my own, and Patricia Cox’s curiosity about Lewis Granom’s family encouraged me to construct his family tree. A huge thank you is also due to my family. Hannah’s computer skills have been invaluable and Ian has done everything possible to provide all necessary support. It has been very much appreciated. vi CONTENTS ABBREVIATIONS AND NOTES viii PREFACE xi FAMILY TREE xvi CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION The Development of the Flute and its Introduction into England 1 CHAPTER 2: LEWIS GRANOM Biography 8 The Performer 18 The Teacher 27 The Composer 30 CHAPTER 3: EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY ENGLISH INSTRUMENTAL TUTORS An Overview 40 Flute Tutors Published in England up to 1765 44 Flute Tutors Published in Europe 52 CHAPTER 4: PLAIN AND EASY INSTRUCTIONS FOR PLAYING ON THE GERMAN FLUTE The Contents 57 Evaluation 103 CHAPTER 5: THE SOLO SONATA IN ENGLAND Solo Sonatas in England 110 Aspects of English Flute Sonatas 112 vii Performance Practice related to Dance 120 Aspects of Performance Practice related to Granom 128 Assessment 135 CHAPTER 6: GRANOM’S SONATAS The Abstract Movements 138 The Dance Movements 164 CHAPTER 7: CONCLUSION 207 APPENDIX: FLUTE SONATAS PUBLISHED IN ENGLAND UP TO 1770 211 BIBLIOGRAPHY 223 viii ABBREVIATONS AND NOTES EM Early Music GSJ Galpin Society Journal ML Music & Letters MMR Monthly Musical Record MR Music Review MQ Musical Quarterly MT Musical Times New Grove (2001) New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians ed.

Potter observes that prices were generally stable for much of the century, and a full loaf of bread would have cost about 4d. To support a family, the breadwinner would have need to earn in the region of about £30–£40. Members of the petty bourgeoisie generally enjoyed incomes of between £50 and £100 a year, whereas about £300 [a year] was the least that would have kept a gentleman in any style. Porter also notes that a new two-up and two-down brick cottage would have cost about £150. Picard observes that 1d would have bought enough gin to get drunk on, 6d. would have bought meat, drink and bread for a journeyman tailor’s dinner,1s. would have bought a meal in a steakhouse of beef, beer and bread, 9s. was the weekly wage of an unskilled labourer, and £6–£8 was the annual wage of a housemaid. The following pitch standard is used: c1 c2 c3 xi PREFACE The authority of figures such as Johann Joachim Quantz and Jacques Hotteterre-le-Romain in connection with modern scholarship in general and flute performance in particular is without question. Hotteterre’s Principes de la flûte traversière, ou flûte d’Allemagne (Paris: C. Ballard, 1707), the first treatise for the one-keyed flute to appear in any country, is the primary source for information about flute technique and performance practice in France in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries. Quantz’s Versuch einer Anweisung die Flöte traversiere zu spielen (Berlin: J. F. Voss, 1752) is a monumental work; about a third is devoted exclusively to the flute while the remainder provides a comprehensive guide to all aspects of musical performance in Germany (particularly Dresden and Berlin) from about 1725 to 1755. The flute music of both Hotteterre and Quantz and some of their more famous countrymen has been the subject of much research, and for this their respective treatises have been invaluable but, as Ardal Powell has pointed out, there has been very little investigation of the work of their less well-known contemporaries.1 Flute music published in England (with the exception of that of Handel), and particularly that composed by flute players resident in England, is a case in point. The flute became the most popular woodwind instrument in England in the eighteenth century, as evidenced by the many anonymous tutors and solo sonatas published for it.2 Initially the flute was brought from France by players who disseminated their techniques and performance practice first hand to their pupils in London. Hence, the first flute treatise to appear in England was an anonymous translation of Hotteterre’s Principes (1707), published as The Rudiments or Principles of the German Flute (London: Walsh and Hare, 1729), which formed the basis of the 1 Ardal Powell, The Flute (New Haven and London: Yale University Press, 2002), p. 299. 2 See Table 3.1, p. 40; Table 3.3 pp. 49–51; Table 2.3, pp. 104–8 and the Appendix. xii many anonymous treatises that followed. The first English flute treatise Plain and Easy Instructions for Playing on the German-Flute (London: T. Bennett, 1766), was written by Lewis Granom (c.1700–c.

AUTHOR OF * A SUMMARY OF METHODIST LAW AND DISCIPLINE,' * THE REVIVAL OF RELIGION IN ENGLAND IN THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY,' ETC. LONDON THE EPWORTH PRESS J. ALFRED SHARP First edition, 1921 PREFACE Canon Overton, in his Life in the English Church, 1660- ' 1714, says that there is no doubt that John Wesley intended his Societies to be an exact repetition of what was done by Beveridge, Horneck, and Smythies sixty-two years before.' ' He continues : How it was that the Methodist Societies took a different course is a very interesting, and, to a church- man, a very sad question.' In this book I have given descrip- tions of the first Rehgious Societies, and have shown their development under the influence of Dr. Woodward and John Wesley. From those descriptions my readers wiU be able to judge the accuracy of Canon Overton's statement concern- ing John Wesley's intentions. There can be no doubt, how- ' ' ever, that the relationship between the Religious Societies ' ' and the United Societies of the People called Methodists was so close that the latter cannot be understood without an intimate knowledge of the former. In writing this book, I have kept the Methodist Church in view. My eyes have been fixed on John Wesley and the England in which his greatest work was done. We can never understand the revival of religion which glorified the eighteenth century until we see Wesley as he wls, and get rid of the false impressions created by writers who have had an imperfect acquaintance with him and his evangelistic work.

    THE USE OF MULTIPLE STOPS IN WORKS FOR SOLO VIOLIN BY JOHANN PAUL VON WESTHOFF (1656-1705) AND ITS RELATIONSHIP TO GERMAN POLYPHONIC WRITING FOR A SINGLE INSTRUMENT Beixi Gao, B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2017 APPROVED: Julia Bushkova, Major Professor Paul Leenhouts, Committee Member Susan Dubois, Committee Member Benjamin Brand, Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music John W. Richmond, Dean of the College of Music Victor Prybutok, Vice Provost of the Toulouse Graduate School Gao, Beixi. The Use of Multiple Stops in Works for Solo Violin by Johann Paul Von Westhoff (1656-1705) and Its Relationship to German Polyphonic Writing for a Single Instrument. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May 2017, 32 pp., 19 musical examples, bibliography, 46 titles. Johann Paul von Westhoff's (1656-1705) solo violin works, consisting of Suite pour le violon sans basse continue published in 1683 and Six Suites for Violin Solo in 1696, feature extensive use of multiple stops, which represents a German polyphonic style of the seventeenth- century instrumental music. However, the Six Suites had escaped the public's attention for nearly three hundred years until its rediscovery by the musicologist Peter Várnai in the late twentieth century. This project focuses on polyphonic writing featured in the solo violin works by von Westhoff. In order to fully understand the stylistic traits of this less well-known collection, a brief summary of the composer, Johann Paul Westhoff, and an overview of the historical background of his time is included in this document.

  • MOLA Guidelines for Music Preparation
    3 MOLA Guidelines for Music Preparation Foreword These guidelines for the preparation of music scores and parts are the result of many hours of discussion regarding the creation and layout of performance material that has come through our libraries. We realize that each music publisher has its own set of guidelines for music engraving. For new or self-published composers or arrangers, we would like to express our thoughts regarding the preparation of performance materials. Using notation so!ware music publishers and professional composers and arrangers are creating scores and parts that are as functional and beautiful as traditionally engraved music. " .pdf (portable document format) is the suggested final file format as it is independent of application so!ware, hardware, and operating system. "ll ma%or notation so!ware has the option to save a file in this format. "s digital storage and distribution of music data files becomes more common, there is the danger that the librarian will be obliged to assume the role of music publisher, expected to print, duplicate, and bind all of the sheet music. &ot all libraries have the facilities, sta', or time to accommodate these pro%ects, and while librarians can advise on the format and layout of printed music, they should not be expected to act as a surrogate publisher. The ma%ority of printed music is now produced using one of the established music notation so!ware programs. (ome of the guidelines that follow may well be implemented in such programs but the so!ware user, as well as anyone producing material by hand, will still find them beneficial.

  • 260 Paul Kléber Monod This Is an Ambitious Book. Monod's
    260 book reviews Paul Kléber Monod Solomon’s Secret Arts: The Occult in the Age of Enlightenment, New Haven and London: Yale University Press 2013. x + 430 pp. isbn 978-0-300-12358-6. This is an ambitious book. Monod’s subject is the occult, by which he means ‘a type of thinking expressed either in writing or in action, that allowed the boundary between the natural and the supernatural to be crossed by the ac- tions of human beings’ (p. 5). Although he cites the work of Antoine Faivre, Wouter Hanegraaff and others, readers of Aries will doubtless be interested to learn Monod’s reasoning for using the term occult in preference to West- ern esotericism. In short, while acknowledging the important contribution of the ‘esoteric approach’ he also highlights its perceived ‘shortcomings’, namely a tendency to regard relevant texts as ‘comprising a discrete and largely self- referential intellectual tradition, hermetically sealed so as to ward off the taint of other forms of thought, not to mention social trends and popular practices’. Moreover, ‘scholars of esoteric religion’ apparently ‘have a tendency to inter- pret whatever they are studying with the greatest seriousness, so that hucksters and charlatans turn into philosophers, and minor references in obscure eso- teric works take on labyrinthine significances’ (p. 10). In practice, what Monod understands here as the occult is largely restricted to alchemy, astrology and rit- ual magic; a maelstrom which, among other things, pulled in readers of Hermes Trismegistus, Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa, Paracelsus, Jacob Boehme and the Kabbalah, outwardly respectable scientists and anti-Trinitarians (sometimes one and the same); Philadelphians; French Prophets; Freemasons; students of Ancient Britain and the Druids; cunning folk; authors of popular Gothic novels; certain followers of Emmanuel Swedenborg; Neoplatonists; advocates of Ani- mal magnetism; and Judaized millenarians.
