    Program Notes by Chris Darwin. Use freely for non-commercial purposes. William Walton (1902-1983) Piano Quartet (1918/1921, rev. 1974) Allegramente Allegro scherzando Andante tranquillo Allegro molto After an early childhood in Oldham singing in his father's church choir, the ten year-old William Walton won a choral scholarship to Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, despite arriving late for the auditions after his father had drunk their train fare. At Oxford he began to compose, in order, he said, to avoid having to return home. In 1918, aged 16, he was admitted to the university to read music thanks to the considerable financial support of Thomas Banks Strong the Dean of Christ Church, but left without a degree two years later, after failing the obligatory Greek and Algebra exams three times. Much of his time had been spent in the library studying scores by Debussy, Ravel, Prokofiev and Stravinsky. At Oxford he met the Sitwell siblings Sacheverell, Osbert and Edith, who housed him in the attic of their London home, and gave him a cultural education. He met Stravinsky and Gershwin, won the praise of Alban Berg for a string quartet, and listened to jazz at the Savoy. In 1920 he went with the Sitwells to Italy, whose music and sunshine captivated the Oldham boy and inspired the music of Façade, whose notoriety launched his international career. Both his Piano Quartet and the early String Quartet that Berg praised date from his undergraduate years but they differ widely in style. In Walton's words the String Quartet is 'full of undigested Bartók and Schoenberg’; despite Berg's approval Walton soon withdrew it.

URL of article: http://www.nebraskahistory.org/publish/publicat/history/full-text/NH1980/EpiscopalMission.pdf Date: 3/25/2014 Article Summary: Against the background of boom and bust in frontier Nebraska, the Episcopal Church was no more stable. The Diocese of Nebraska was established in 1868 under the leadership of Bishop Robert H Clarkson. Much of the initial work to establish the denomination in Nebraska failed and a new start had to be made in the 1880s. One of its undertakings was an “Associate Mission” in Omaha between 1888 and 1902. This article describes the history of this mission and evaluates its effectiveness. The purpose of this associate mission was to secure young unmarried priests who would pledge themselves to missionary work for a given time under the guidance and direction of the bishop.

  • The Burford School of Masons
    Oxoniensia 78 txt 4+index_Oxoniensia 17/11/2013 12:05 Page 99 ROMANO-BRITISH VILLA AT COMBE 99 The Burford School of Masons MELODY MOBUS SUMMARY Three dynasties of stonemasons emerging from quarries in the Burford area, the Strongs, Kempsters and Beauchamps, rose to national stature as Wren’s mason-contractors in post- Fire London. The activity of these Burford masons can also be traced in buildings and sculpture in the Oxfordshire area over a period of some hundred years from the 1630s onwards. Unusually, they not only operated individually but frequently joined forces, enjoyed ready access to important markets for their stone, and acted as transmitters of new styles, all of which suggests that they can be regarded as a school of masons. This paper confirms their credentials as a school on the basis of eight criteria, and examines the built evidence of their works with particular regard to Oxfordshire. The Strong, Kempster and Beauchamp families were connected with three quarries close to Burford, located at Upton, Taynton and Little Barrington. This paper groups these dynasties of stonemasons together as the ‘Burford masons’. At the time of the Great Fire of London in 1666 the Strongs were already established masons of regional importance, but it was the response of Thomas Strong and Christopher Kempster to the urgent need for rebuilding the City which boosted both families’ fortunes in an unprecedented way. Ephraim Beauchamp joined them as soon as he had served his apprenticeship. Over the hundred years of their known activity, the Burford masons were closely involved in creating many seminal buildings, including St Paul’s Cathedral, twenty-four of the fifty-one City churches rebuilt, Charles II’s new palace at Winchester, Greenwich Hospital, and over half of the ‘Queen Anne’ churches constructed.

  • From Oldham to Oxford: the Formative Years of Sir William Walton
    From Oldham to Oxford: The Formative Years of Sir William Walton Gary D. Cannon A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts University of Washington 2014 Reading Committee: Geoffrey P. Boers, Chair Abraham Kaplan Giselle E. Wyers Program Authorized to Offer Degree: School of Music © Copyright 2014 Gary D. Cannon University of Washington Abstract From Oldham to Oxford: The Formative Years of Sir William Walton Gary D. Cannon Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Geoffrey Boers Choral Conducting, School of Music The formative years of William Walton (1902–1983) are rarely considered when studying the composer’s life and works. However, careful study of that period indicates many of the directions that the adult Walton would take. Industrial Lancashire was more musically active during the period of Walton’s youth (covering the years 1902 to 1912) than is generally considered. His time as a chorister and later undergraduate at Christ Church, Oxford (1912 to 1920), is replete with influential interactions with talented adults and fellow students. Detailed consideration of Walton’s juvenilia reveals a keen thinker who assimilated these various influences in a unique manner. Far more than merely a springboard for a future talent, these years resulted in inspired works and a firm purpose for the budding composer.

Investigation of the master craftsmen who realised the emerging architect's ideas while continuing to build to their own design has only recently been embarked upon. This thesis sets out to address this imbalance by scrutinising a group of master masons closely connected with Wren for over five decades.
