The Ormond Chair of Music and the Conservatorium The Chair of Music was founded in the University of Melbourne by the generous endowment ($40,000) of the late Ir. Francis Ormond in 1891. Three years later, in 1894, the Conservatorium was established.

The Building The present building consists of twenty teaching rooms, a fine lecture hall, concert hall (known as Melba Hall), Director's room, administrative offices, library, staff and students' rooms.

Aim of the Conservatorium The chief aim of the Conservatorium is to provide a general course of musical education, while provision is also made for specialization in any particular subject.

CØTER 1 ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DEAN OF MUSIC, 1965 Enrolments The figures given below show a consistent pattern of enrolments in all courses during the last three years. The number of single study students is expressed as an average in first and second terms: 1963 1964 1965 Degree of BMus. and Dip.Mus. 201 190 199 Degree of MMus, ...... .. 9 15 12 Single Studies .. .. .. 298 318 299 Arts students, Degree of В.А...... 61 79 68 Degree of М.А. .. .. 3 2 2 A quota limiting the total first year enrolment to seventy in the B.Mus. and Dip.Mus. courses was introduced at the beginning of 1965. Thirty-seven first year students were admitted to the B.Mus. course, and twenty were enrolled for Dip.Mus. Sta$ It is with deep regret that the death of Mr. Bernard D. Clarke, Dip M.Mus. is recorded. Mr. Clarke was appointed to the staff in 1962 as a teacher of the Organ and he did valuable work for the Conservatorium. For many years he was organist of All Saints Church, East St. Kilda, where his services as a church musician and teacher were important in promoting high standards. He will be remembered at the Conservatorium as a loyal colleague with splendid ideals, and as a former student of whom the University can be proud. - Two Senior Lecturers, Dr. Noel Nickson and Dr. Basil Deane, are leaving the Conservatorium . at the end of this year. Dr. Nickson has been appointed Professor of Music at the University of Queensland, and Dr. Deane returns to the United Kingdom as Lecturer in Music at the University of Nottingham. Both have made a distinguished contribution to the musical life of the Conservatorium and will be greatly missed. We wish them every success in their new positions. Miss Margaret Crawford has been appointed to the staff as a teacher of the Flute and of Orchestration; Mr. Rodney Sigstnn has been appointed as a teacher of Pianoforte and Ear Training, and also as a Part-time Tutor in the History of Music. Miss Judith Easton has rejoined the staff as a teacher of Oboe and Miss Eva Ruff has returned to teach German in the Vocal School. Mr. John Mallinson has been appointed as a teacher of the Organ, and during the absence of Mr. Manuel Gelman on overseas leave, Mr. Kevin Siddell has been temporarily appointed to lecture on Methods of Teaching. Miss Tamara Coates and Mr. Ian Harris have resigned as teachers of the Oboe; Mr. G. W. Miller has resigned as a teacher of the French Horn. Mr. Felix Werder has joined the staff as a Part-time Tutor in Graduate Studies. - Miss Elsa Haas was granted overseas study leave this year. Dr. Percy Jones was granted special leave to enable him to act as a member of the international committee appointed by the Roman Catholic Church to revise the liturgy and its- music. An extension of leave until July 1960 was approved for Miss Audrey Walklate and Mr. John Eggington. Dr. Percy Jones has been appointed Acting Professor of Music and Acting Director of the Conservatorium during the absence of the Ormond Professor on overseas leave in 1966; Mr. Roy Shephеrd has been appointed Acting Vice-Director of the Conservatorium in that year. Exhibitions and Scholarships Nearly all the Conservatorium Exhibitions and Scholarships have been awarded again this year, which is further evidence of their continuing value as a means of assistance to students who may not be eligible to apply for other awards such as Commonwealth Scholarships or Secondary Studentships provided by the Victorian Education Department. It is expected that two important Exhibitions will be added in 1966. Appreciation is expressed of the interest and co-operation of the President and members of the Austral Salon, who have once again made available their valuable 11 scholarship. Thanks are also due to the members of the Music Lovers' Society for the continuance of their exhibition. Concerto and Vocal Competitions As previously, the Conservatorium was well represented among the entrants for the Concerto and Vocal Competitions conducted by the Australian Broadcasting. Commission. Ken Griffiths ( Pianoforte) is to be congratulated upon winning the State Competition in the keyboard section and upon gaining second place at the Commonwealth final. Rosslyn Wortley, a recent graduate of the Conservatorium, was highly commended at the State final. Sidney Myer Free Concerts A Summer Festival of four Sidney Myer Free Concerts was presented in February at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl by the University in association with the Australian Broadcasting Commission. The Victorian Symphony Orchestra was con- ducted by Sir and John Hopkins, and the soloists were Beryl Кimbеr and Isador Goodman. Miss Kimber appeared in Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto, and Mr. Goodman played Rachmaninov s Second Pianoforte Concept°. The orchestral works included symphonies by Haydn, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Sibelius and Dvorak. The Festival was an artistic success, and the very large number of people who attended the concerts were able to enjoy a musical experience offered at a high level. Appreciation is expressed of the part played by the director of the Music Bowl, Mr. Paull Fiddian, in organizing and presenting the Festival in association with the Australian Broadcasting Commission. Conservatorium Choir and Symphony Orchestra During the year the Conservatorium Choir has presented the Dettingen Te Deum by Handel and The Rio Grande of , the latter with the Conservatorium Orchestra. In The Rio Grande the solo pianoforte part was played by Penelope Thwaites; Neiene Gilmour sang the contralto solo. At the time of writing this report rehearsals are in progress for a performance of Purcell's Ode "Hail Bright Cecilia", to be given at a lunch-hour concert at the end of third term. The conductors this year have been Dr. Percy Jones, Mr. Donald Thornton and the Ormond Professor. Dr. Noel Nickson has conducted orchestral concerts at which Violin and Piano- forte Concertos have been performed. Notable among the orchestral pieces played at these concerts was Dorian le Gallienne's last work, his Symphonic Study. The concerto soloists were Berenice Harrison, Rosslyn Wortley, Barbara Fiske, Janet Perkins and Ian McDonough ( Pianoforte) and Noel Collishaw ( Violin ). At the orchestral concert at the end of first term this year, under Mr. John Glickman, Beethoven's Fifth Pianoforte Concerto was played by Betty Pink, and orchestral works included Holst's Somerset Rhapsody and the Symphonic Suite "Lieutenant Кije" by Prokofiev. The mid-winter Choral and Orchestral Concert took place in August; on this occasion Sally Wawn was the soloist in the first Melbourne perform- ance of Stravinsky's Concerto for Piano and Wind Instruments. Thus the year has brought performances of a wide range of works, and of finely-written music which is seldom heard elsewhere. Conservatorium Chamber Orchestra This year the Conservatorium Chamber Orchestra has been conducted by Mr. John Glickman and Dr. Basil Deane. Among works presented were Mozart's Sym phony in C major, К.425 and Irkanda IV, a composition by the young Australian composer Peter Sculthorpe. Mozart's Flute Concerto in D major, x.314 was played by Alison Langdon at a concert in June; later in second term the soloists in a performance of J. S. Bach's Concerto for Two Violins and Orchestra were Claire Farmer and Noel Collishaw. Chamber Music A wide range of works has been performed at Chamber Music cоnсеrts given by students. Styles and media varied from J. S. Bach to Shostakovitch, and the programmes included Quartets by Haydn and Dvorak and the Mozart Clarinet Quintet. Five public recitals were given by candidates for the M.Mus. degree, at which the artists were Margaret Crawford (Flute), Elaine Fenn ( Pianoforte ) and John Lavender (Pianoforte). A vocal and pianoforte recital was given by Bevan Grieve and Haydn Reeder. 12 Opera School It is regrettable that owing to lack of finance it has nat been possible to re-open the Conservatorium Opera School this year. Thus this important activity, without which the Conservatorium cannot wholly fulfil its responsibility to the University and to the public, is still in abeyance. In emphasizing the need of an Opera School one must hope for the provision of adequate funds as soon as possible. Postgraduate School Advanced work is being pursued in both the academic and practical fields of the postgraduate school. In 190 two students have fulfilled all the requirements for the M.Mus. degree in the School of Instrumental Performance. In the fields of Musical History and School Music seven candidates are engaged upon the writing of theses. . Research work in the School of Musical History is mostly concerned at present with the nineteenth and twentieth centuries; it is expected that the acquisition of a harpsichord will promote special interests in music of earlier periods. Summer Bchool A successful. Summer School for teachers was conducted in January by the Conservatorium in conjunction with the Victorian Music Teachers' Association. This year, in addition to lectures on Pianoforte technique and literature, and lectures on the Theory of Music given by members of the Conservatorium staff, the programme included lectures relating music to other fields of study such as science, and painting. Tutorials were given, as previously, in string instruments and singing; an important new feature was a programme of study in School Music which consisted of a series of lectures given by well known school musicians, concluding with a panel discussion. Members of the staff, Conservatorium students, and school children took part in presenting a series of daily recitals. Thus a wide area of activity was covered, and as in the past it was felt that this week of intense study and discussion was of great value, providing oppor- tunities of re-assessment and the refreshment which comes from the interchange of ideas. Altogether, one hundred and seventeen persons enrolled, twenty-five of whom entered specially for the course in School Music. Thanks are due to the Director of the School, Dr. Noel Nickson, to Mr. Mai Cooke, the President of the Victorian Music Teachers' Association, ta the members of the staff, and to all who took part in contributing to the success of the School, which was the result of splendid co-operation and enthusiasm. Visitors A number of distinguished musicians have visited the Conservatorium this year. Professor Karl Ernst, Director of the Division of Creative Arts at the State College at Hayward, California, Professor Wilfrid Mellers, Professor of Music at the Uni- versity of York, and Peter Maxwell Davies, British composer, were invited to participate at the UNESCO School Music Seminar which was held at the University of in May following the Seminar each of these visitors spent a few days at the Conservatorium, giving lectures for students and for the public. Mr. Walter Gruner, of the Guildhall School of Music, London, gave lectures on singing and on the interpretation of German lieder, and Miss Selma Epstein, the Anierican pianist, presented a recital of contemporary music. Every visitor made a personal and important contribution to the musical life of the Conservatorium, whilst the two professors and Mr. Maxwell Davies each attracted a large audience of professional musicians and music lovers. Lunch-hour Concerts These weekly concerts during term in the Wilson Hall have continued to provide well-varied programmes ranging from Organ, Pianoforte and Vocal recitals to Chamber Music, Chamber Orchestral and Choral performances. Most of the concerts have been given by members of the Conservatorium staff, including the resident University ensemble, the Ormond Trio. The Students Chamber Orchestra and Choir have also taken part. The recitals have been well attended and audiences of University staff and students have ben able to hear not only well-known works, but also masterpieces such as J. S. Bach's Musical Offering in a performance with harpsichord, and Schumann's Die Davidsbundlertanze which is infrequently performed today. Mention must be made here of a lunch hour concert apart from the normal series which was given by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra conducted by Dr. Clive Douglas with Mr John Glickman as soloist. We were very pleased to receive 13 Music—C the members of the M.S.O. and hope that they will be making further visits to the Wilson Hall in the future. Thanks are due to the University Union for its continued co-operation in presenting these programmes, which are a valuable feature of musical life on the campus. Melba Hall The normal programme of activity in the Melba Hall, comprising Conserva- torium Concerts, and recitals by members of the staff, has been increased this year with the addition of six student recitals and by its use for a series of public lectures. The acoustic treatment of the hall, which took place early in the year, has considerably improved conditions for both rehearsal and performance. This improve- ment in acoustics is appreciated, but it can only be regarded as a temporary benefit; the Conservatorium urgently needs a larger modern hall, more suitable for orchestral concerts. The use of the hall by city music societies has continued, and its important place at the centre of music-making in the community has once again been proved. Library New scores, books and records are continually being added to the library. This is as it should be, and it is unfortunate that such necessary expansion should cause increasing concern as to the lack of adequate accommodation. In an important sense the library is at the centre of musical endeavour in the Conservatorium and it is vital that it should be large enough and in possession of the facilities required to promote its work. At present, this is far from the case. A valuable and comprehensive collection of books and scores has been presented to the library by Miss Ruth Flockart. In ex ressing appreciation of this generous gift, one may assure Miss Flockart, who has done so much for music in Melbourne, that it will be of considerable assistance to future generations of students. Australian Music Examinations Board In both the May and September examinations this year the number of entries rose above that of 1964, the increase in September approaching two hundred can- didates. Comparative figures are as follows: 1963 1964 1965 May .. 1,950 2,178 2,191 September •. .. .. 11,836 12,058 12,243 Thus the Board's work continues as a means of developing musical training from primary to advanced levels; it is of inestimable importance to the welfare of the art in both State and Commonwealth. Once again, appreciation is expressed of the work of the examiners and of the administrative staff. The value of this work cannot be over-emphasized, for it contributes directly to the maintanance of musical standards. This year Miss Hermia Barton, Mr. John Lavender and Mr. Rodney Sigston have been appointed examiners. The resignation of Dr. J. A. Steele was accepted with regret. For a very long period Dr. Steele has given loyal and distinguished service as an examiner. Accommodation and Equipment The serious inadequacies in accommodation and equipment at the Conserva- torium become more difficult to surmount as time goes on. Both students and members of staff are under-housed; in consequence, musical progress is made less easy and more demanding than it should be in terms of practical requirements. It is impossible to overstate the urgent need of a modern music building, properly planned and equipped, to fulfil the University's responsibility for the development of music in this State and in the Commonwealth. The provision of five new upright pianofortes this year has assisted in the maintenance of standards in the Pianoforte School. This is appreciated. Acknowledgements On behalf of the Faculty of Music, the Dean wishes to thank the University Council for its continued support of musical studies and activities. He also wishes to acknowledge the splendid co-operation and assistance of the members of his Faculty and of the Conservatorium staff throughout the year.
