Is music an antidote to the city or is the city itself music? Luigi Russolo, writing in 1913, in Milan said [1]: ‘Let us wander through a great modern city with our ears more alert than our eyes, and enjoy distinguishing between the sounds of water, air, or gas in metal pipes, the purring of motors which breathe and pulsate with indisputable animalism, the throbbing of valves, pounding of pistons, screeching of gears, clatter of street cars on their rails, cracking of whips, flapping of awnings and flags. We shall enjoy fabricating the mental orchestrations of the banging of shop shutters, the slamming of doors, the hustle and bustle of crowds, the din of railroad stations, foundries, spinning mills, printing presses, electric power stations, and underground railways. Nor should the newest noises of war be forgotten… We want to give pitches to these diverse noises, regulating them harmonically and rhythmically…. Every noise has a pitch, some even a chord, which predominates among the whole of its irregular vibrations’ He identified six families of noises: - Roars, thunderings, explosions, hissing roars, bangs, booms - Whistling, hissing, puffing - Whispers, murmurs, mumbling, muttering, gurgling - Screeching, creaking, rustling, humming, crackling, rubbing - Beating on: metals, woods, skins, stones, pottery, etc. - Voices of animals and people: shouts, screams, shrieks, wails, hoots, howls, death rattles, sobs. He then built an orchestra of machines to reproduce these sounds on stage, mostly by turning handles. In 1914 he toured the major capitals of Europe, meeting Stravinsky in Paris and performing at the London Palladium until his show was cut short by the beginning of the Great War. A century later, musical performance includes voicing, beating and screeching, and the audience whispering, whistling, beating, and only occasionally roaring thunder or explosions.

But following this anniversary there is some sad news, with the recent passing of our President, Jeanie, Countess of Carnarvon. Her energy, commitment and enthusiasm from the outset and throughout the evolution of the Festival have been fundamental to its success. The Duchess of Kent and I have seen the Festival grow from humble beginnings to an internationally renowned arts festival, having faced and overcome many obstacles along the way. Jeanie, Countess of Carnarvon, can be justly proud of the Festival’s achievements. Her legacy must surely be a Festival that continues to flourish as we embark on the next forty years. www.newburyspringfestival.org.uk 1 2019-NSF book.qxp_NSF programme book 23/04/2019 12:31 Page 2 Jeanie, Countess of Carnarvon MBE Founder and President 1935 - 2019 2 box office 0845 5218 218 2019-NSF book.qxp_NSF programme book 23/04/2019 12:31 Page 3 The Festival’s founder and president, Jeanie Countess of Carnarvon was a great and much loved lady who we will always remember for her inspirational support of Newbury Spring Festival and her gentle and gracious presence at so many events over the years.

This is especially true when the performance is done by brilliant musicians. The European Broadcasting Union’s Eurovision Young Musicians is an impressive event, in the best sense of the word. It is not any old talent show, to be quickly forgotten. No, this competition provides a spring- board for talented young solo performers of classical music to enter the international scene. I am delighted that this year’s Eurovision Young Musicians is held in Cologne, a city known for its enthusiastic audienc- es and home to renowned symphony and chamber orches- tras as well as the University of Music and Dance. For one week, musical artists from 14 countries are demon- strating their technical brilliance and artistic flair. And they are well motivated: many international celebrity artists started out at the Eurovision Young Musician, the final in Cologne’s central Roncalliplatz square will be broadcast live to a European audience and the winner will be given the op- portunity to perform with the Vienna Philharmonic. Now, if that is not an incentive, I don’t know what is.
