A handsome and durable album is presented free with each complete set of the above re,ords. T HIS superb Symphony, written in the full maturity of its composer's creative powers-the score is inscribed Venice- Tintagel, 1910-11-has justly taken its place as one of the masterpieces of orchestral music, and unquestionably the greatest English Symphony yet produced. Of its poetic meaning the composer has given us a hint in the motto prefixed to the score-" Rarely, rarely comest thou, spirit of delight " (Shelley). A hearing of the Symphony suggests that it may be an expression of the many rare delights that the artistic mind can find in life, especially in the contemplation of nature. For if there is any music that is eloquent of the open air surely it is this symphony, so many pages of which bring to one's thoughts the fresh sweet beauty and loveliness of the English countryside. The slow movement, however, does not fit into this explanation. While the symphony, intended as " a loyal tribute to King Edward VII.," was being written, came the news of the monarch's death. And so the wonderful Larghetto was written as the expression of a nation in mourning, inspired by the solemn pageant of the monarch's passing to his resting place. The first movement (record 1) commences with a joyous theme that is surely a perfect expression of " The spirit of delight." With this and the beautiful phrases that follow it the music sweeps and For prices see page 2 of cover.

The second melody is of almost feminine grace and charm. Later a quieter mood prevails (2nd record). Faint harp notes like the distant chimes of a clock remind one of the passing of the golden hours. A wistful little theme appears, and for a time dominates the music, like a cloud obscuring the sunshine, inter- weaving itself with the other themes. Eventually the latter emerge triumphant (record 3) and the music leads up to a great peroration in which all is resplendent and joyful. II. The second movement Larghetto is, in the opinion of many, the finest that has ever come from the composer's pen. Sad little phrases (record 4) whispered by the strings usher in a solemn theme the accompanying rhythm of which gives the effect FE' of a funeral march. To this the violins reply with a melody of exquisite consolatory character. From this point (record 5) the music gradually gathers in emotional force until a mighty climax is reached, where with over- powering beauty of expression, a great theme, nobilmente (which is partly derived from the previous melody) appears in all the splendour of the full orchestra. Another climax (record 6) is made yet again with the nobilmente theme now towering to still greater heights of emotion. III. In this brilliant movement, which is a Rondo, we are back again in the invigorating mood of the first movement. The Rondo theme (record 6) is a freakish jaunty little tune which rushes about the orchestra in a breathless manner. Then appears a ponderous theme, that suggests giant strides up some hill-side. Presently we hear a delicious little phrase-one may liken it to a bird in song. It gradually fades away, and (with record 7) we are once more in a strenuous atmosphere, which is mostly maintained to the end. IV. The dignity and stately beauty of the finale make it a fitting conclusion to this magnificent symphony. Its themes all have a nobility of character and it is impossible to avoid the thought that the music here is an apotheosis, as it were, of England. The graceful principal subject (record 8) is softly announced by 'cellos, bassoons, &c., and later on swells out on the full orchestra, to be followed by a very lovely after-phrase, of [Continued on page 3 For prices see page 2 of cover. `GreatestAriisfs -]ýinestRecord VLADIMIR DE PACHMANN (Pianoforte) 12-inch double-sided Red babel Mazurka in A Flat Major, Op. 50, No. D.B. 861 ' 2 Chopin 1 Mazurka in B Flat Minor, Op. 24, No. 4 Chopin "SOCIAL poems, poems of private life " is the happy description, J by a famous writer, of Chopin's Mazurkas. contrasting them with " the Polonaises, which are political poems." In these exquisite little tone-poems, indeed, Chopin almost touches a more intimate note than in his other works. Their music gives us glimpses of the composer's impressions of those Polish ýIiý3i!ýil mansions where, as a youth, he was the object of much adulation, where fair ladies danced the national dances, and Polish gentlemen held converse with one another, and where Chopin held all entranced by the magic of his playing. The music of these two Mazurkas, the wistful B flat minor, and the beautiful A flat major, is so well known as to need no description. Many have heard De Pachmann play them in the concert room. Here in these records is the ideal and perfect reproduction of the pianist's art, supreme in the interpretation of Chopin. AN ELGAR SYMPHONY-Continued. touching eloquence, which, gathering force, gradually rises to a most majestic climax. Finally we come to a melody, also marked nobilmente, which has both tenderness and strength. In the second part of the movement (record 9) we hear a fine new theme, which, entering softly, brings a mystic feeling into the music. But the reappearance of the earlier themes banishes this mood. The music broadens out to a stately serenity, at the last dying down into phrases of exquisite calm that suggest some celestial vision. " The Light of Life " is an early oratorio by Sir Edward Elgar, the Meditation being the prelude to the work. Its music, which is based upon some of the themes used in the oratorio, has a fine devo- tional and mystic atmosphere, clothed in soft orchestral colouring. For prices see page 2 of cover.

Nachez LTHOUGH Bach's wonderful powers as an executant were mainly confined to the organ and the harpsichord, there is no A doubt that he studied the violin in his early days. And so when the flow of his inspiration was directed to music for that instrument the result was to enrich the literature of the violin with works that have never been surpassed for beauty and perfec- tion of form. Three concertos for the violin exist (there may probably have been more) and of these three the F, major concerto (which Thibaud has recorded) is generally considered the finest. Its music, like so much that Each has written, seems to transport the listener into another world, one far removed from the fret of everyday life, a world where all is serenity, light and beauty. For this reason Bach appeals to music-lovers to-day as much as he did two centuries ago, when first his works saw the light. I. The first movement is based upon the beautiful melody heard (on the orchestra) at the commencement, a melody which is both joyful and serene, one that lingers in the mind for long after. When the violin enters it is to take up this theme in a new aspect: soloist and orchestra vie with one another in weaving new and beautiful sound-patterns from its various elements. A little later we may notice an exquisite "after-thought" (as one might term it), a little soaring phrase which turns the music into a mood almost of ecstasy. The movement momentarily modulates into the minor (end of record 1), but with the next record begins a series of lovely phrases which gradually lead back to the main melody.

  • William Henry Squire's Out-Of-Print Works for Cello and Piano
    PEZZOLI, GINA ANNALISE. D.M.A. William Henry Squire’s Out-of-Print Works for Cello and Piano: Analysis and Suggestions for Teachers (2011). Directed by Dr. Alexander Ezerman. 39 pp. This study presents a biographical overview of William Henry Squire’s life, performance, and teaching career and a pedagogical analysis of his out-of-print works for cello and piano. The study is organized into two main parts. The first reviews Squire’s career as a cellist and composer, with special emphasis on his performing and teaching careers. The second part consists of a detailed description of nine of Squire’s forgotten and out-of-print works for cello and piano. This section includes discussion of the technical and musical challenges of the works, most of which are completely unknown to cellists today. As with many of Squire’s better-known works, these pieces are excellent for intermediate-level cello students. The document is intended to be a teaching “menu” of sorts which details the attributes of each work; therefore the catalogue is organized by difficulty, not by opus number. The nine works chosen for this study are Squire’s Chant D’Amour , Gondoliera , Souvenir, Légende, Berceuse, Slumber Song/Entr’acte, Sérénade op. 15 , Gavotte Humoristique op. 6, and Meditation in C op. 25.

The first number is one of those graceful and flower-like waltz tunes that Gounod knew so well how to write ; then, in contrast, the following number is more serious and sentimental in character.

    ROGER QUILTER 1877-1953 HIS LIFE, TIMES AND MUSIC by VALERIE GAIL LANGFIELD A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Music School of Humanities The University of Birmingham February 2004 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT Roger Quilter is best known for his elegant and refined songs, which are rooted in late Victorian parlour-song, and are staples of the English artsong repertoire. This thesis has two aims: to explore his output beyond the canon of about twenty-five songs which overshadows the rest of his work; and to counter an often disparaging view of his music, arising from his refusal to work in large-scale forms, the polished assurance of his work, and his education other than in an English musical establishment. These aims are achieved by presenting biographical material, which places him in his social and musical context as a wealthy, upper-class, Edwardian gentleman composer, followed by an examination of his music. Various aspects of his solo and partsong œuvre are considered; his incidental music for the play Where the Rainbow Ends and its contribution to the play’s West End success are examined fully; a chapter on his light opera sheds light on his collaborative working practices, and traces the development of the several versions of the work; and his piano, instrumental and orchestral works are discussed within their function as light music.
