  • NIKOLAI KORNDORF: a BRIEF INTRODUCTION by Martin Anderson Nikolai Korndorf Had a Clear Image of What Kind of a Composer He Was
    Explore Unknown Music with the Toccata Discovery Club Since you’re reading this booklet, you’re obviously someone who likes to explore music more widely than the mainstream offerings of most other labels allow. Toccata Classics was set up explicitly to release recordings of music – from the Renaissance to the present day – that the microphones have been ignoring. How often have you heard a piece of music you didn’t know and wondered why it hadn’t been recorded before? Well, Toccata Classics aims to bring this kind of neglected treasure to the public waiting for the chance to hear it – from the major musical centres and from less-well-known cultures in northern and eastern Europe, from all the Americas, and from further afield: basically, if it’s good music and it hasn’t yet been recorded, Toccata Classics will be exploring it. To link label and listener directly we have launched the Toccata Discovery Club, which brings its members substantial discounts on all Toccata Classics recordings, whether CDs or downloads, and also on the range of pioneering books on music published by its sister company, Toccata Press. A modest annual membership fee brings you two free CDs when you join (so you are saving from the start) and opens up the entire Toccata Classics catalogue to you, both new recordings and existing releases. Frequent special offers bring further discounts. If you are interested in joining, please visit the Toccata Classics website at www.toccataclassics.com and click on the ‘Discovery Club’ tab for more details. 8 TOCC 0128 Korndorf.indd 1 26/03/2012 17:30 NIKOLAI KORNDORF: A BRIEF INTRODUCTION by Martin Anderson Nikolai Korndorf had a clear image of what kind of a composer he was.

  • Jean Coulthard Celebration
    The Canadian Music Centre in BC Presents The Murray Adaskin Salon Concert Series CE L EBRAT I N G O UR L EGACY Jean Coulthard Celebration Friday, February 10, 2017 • 7:00pm Letter from the BC Director What are your values? Working in the arts, I think about this question a great deal. Values define who we are as individuals and as organizations. They inform our understanding of the world around us. Our values determine the choices we make, the individuals we most cherish in our lives, the kinds of organizations we choose to support. Yet today we are living through a time in which our core values are being challenged in ways we once thought unimaginable. Which makes me wonder what Jean Coulthard's values were. She was, like Barbara Pentland and Violet Archer, far ahead of her time, which I imagine is never a terribly comfortable place to be. At a time when women were actively discouraged from pursuing professional careers in music; when orchestras were entirely male; when there were few if any role models, Jean Coulthard was appointed the very first composition teacher at UBC in 1947. Which means she must have believed in being true to herself no matter what, to having the courage of her own convictions, particularly given what an original voice she was at a time when Boulez wrote that "all composition other than twelve-tone serialism is useless." Jean Coulthard was cosmopolitan, evinced by the portrait of her featured on the cover of this programme. Through her life and studies she embraced French Impressionism and its myriad Asian influences; the folk influences of Bartok whom she consulted about her work on a number of occasions; the nationalist influences of Vaughan Williams, with whom she studied, and of Copland, with whom she corresponded; even the serialism of Schoenberg, though it was such a far cry from her own more pastoral, and pastorally-oriented aesthetic.
