The rural landscapes of Gloucestershire have inspired many classical composers - including Herbert Howells, Gerald Finzi, Ralph Vaughan Williams and Ivor Gurney, to name just a few. In this programme, Rose Ferraby finds out about the links between landscape and music and learns about the extraordinary cluster of composers who were associated with Gloucester Cathedral in the early part of the 20th century. She talks to academics and musicians about how a love of the Gloucestershire countryside influenced composers of the time and visits some of the beauty spots which inspired them - including Chosen Hill, believed to be the only hill to have a piano quartet dedicated to it. At Gloucester Cathedral, she hears the choristers sing the Gloucester Service, a setting of the Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis by Herbert Howells, and meets the cathedral's director of music - who was himself taught by Howells at the Royal College of Music.Produced by Emma Campbell

Scott Robert Shaw's debut "The English Tenor" takes us on a beautifully performed journey through a who's who of great English composers and their vocal works. The names Ivor Gurney, Benjamin Britten, Ralph Vaughan Williams, Gerald Finzi and Roger Quilter are synonymous with English Song, and a Golden Age of British music. The wide variety of accompanying instruments and artists, the broad range of text settings, and the mix of cornerstone works of the repertoire alongside lesser-known cycles make "The English Tenor" a thrilling debut album.Five Elizabethan Songs - Ivor Gurney (1890-1937)Along the Field Ralph - Vaughan Williams (1872-1958)Four Songs, Op. 14 - Roger Quilter (1877-1953)8 Folksong Arrangements for High Voice and Harp - Benjamin Britten (1973-1976)Let Us Garlands Bring, Op. 18 - Gerald Finzi (1901-1956)Help support our show by purchasing this album at:Downloads (classicalmusicdiscoveries.store) Classical Music Discoveries is sponsored by Uber and Apple Classical. @CMDHedgecock#ClassicalMusicDiscoveries #KeepClassicalMusicAlive#CMDGrandOperaCompanyofVenice #CMDParisPhilharmonicinOrléans#CMDGermanOperaCompanyofBerlin#CMDGrandOperaCompanyofBarcelonaSpain#ClassicalMusicLivesOn#Uber#AppleClassical Please consider supporting our show, thank you!Donate (classicalmusicdiscoveries.store) staff@classicalmusicdiscoveries.comThis album is broadcast with the permission of Sean Dacy from Rosebrook Media.
SynopsisOn today's date in 1949, the British composer Gerald Finzi conducted the premiere performance of his Clarinet Concerto at the Three Choirs Festival in Hereford.During his lifetime, Finzi never achieved the fame of some other 20th-century British composers. British tenor Mark Padmore wrote a recent appreciation titled “The Quiet Man of British Music,” which included these lines:“I want to make a case for taking the time to get to know a composer … whose plumage is discreet and whose song is quiet and subtle. Finzi might be termed one of classical music's wrens. Despite his exotic-sounding surname and mixed Italian, Sephardic and Ashkenazi heritage, Finzi was in many ways an archetypal English gentleman. ... One of his passions was the saving of old English varieties of apples. … [His] music was written slowly and often it would take many years for a piece to reach its final form.”Finzi died in 1956, at 55, from Hodgkin's lymphoma. He was concerned his music would be forgotten after his death and added this note to his catalogue of works: "The affection which an individual may retain after his departure is perhaps the only thing which guarantees an ultimate life to his work."Music Played in Today's ProgramGerald Finzi (1901 - 1956) – Clarinet Concerto (Alan Hacker; English String Orchestra; William Boughton, cond.)

James Newby's new album, 'Fallen to Dust', for BIS explores English song, and particularly English on the theme of death. Joined by the pianist Joseph Middleton, he offers cycles by Sir Arthur Somerville and Gerald Finzi, as well as songs spanning a century, including contemporary settings by Jonathan Dove and Errollyn Wallen. A former BBC New Generation Artist, a recipient of a 2022 Borletti-Buitoni Trust Award, a Rising Star for the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment and an ECHO Rising Star, Newby's career has taken off impressively. James Jolly met up with him earlier this week to talk about the new album. Gramophone Podcasts are given in association with Wigmore Hall.
Welkom terug bij een nieuwe aflevering van Kalm met Klassiek, dé podcastserie voor je dagelijkse momentje rust. In het gedicht Clear and Gentle Stream keert de spreker terug naar een speciale plek uit zijn jeugd. En die plek is naast een beekje, onder een boom. De spreker haalt daar oude herinneringen op en het lukt hem zelfs de dromen die hij vroeger had weer op te roepen. Wanneer de avond aanbreekt, licht de maan het beekje op. Bij het glinsterende water zingt hij een lied dat hij vroeger ook zong. De vredige en nostalgische sfeer van deze scène verwerkte Finzi heel mooi in het lied. Ab laat je een instrumentale versie horen, om heerlijk bij weg te dromen...

Synopsis On today's date in 1956, the English composer Gerald Finzi died in Oxford. He was just 55 years old. Finzi suffered from Hodgkin's disease, and shortly before his death had caught chickenpox from some children he had visited, an infection that proved fatal. Finzi was born into a wealthy, assimilated Jewish family. His mother was musical, and an amateur composer. Even with talent, wealth, support from the likes of Ralph Vaughan Williams and several golden opportunities for career advancement, Finzi proved to be a rather diffident soul who seemed to prefer to work in seclusion and relative obscurity. He collected rare books and scores by 18th century English composers but is most famous for his settings of poems by Thomas Hardy, a contemporary of his parent's generation. Himself an agnostic, Finzi produced a small body of sacred choral works, and two instrumental pieces that have endeared him to clarinetists: a set of clarinet “Bagatelles” from 1943 and this Clarinet Concerto from 1949. The British critic Norman Lebrecht offers this assessment of Finzi's appeal: “a confluence of Elgar without bluffness and Vaughan Williams at his most delicate. His concerto for clarinet and strings is a light and lovely lament for lost times.” Music Played in Today's Program Gerald Finzi (1901 – 1956) — Clarinet Concerto (Richard Stoltzman, clarinet; Guildhall String Ensemble; Robert Slater, cond.)

Richard and Eric tackle a juicy quote about Herbert Howells from a 1950s Musical Times article composed by Gerald Finzi. “To some the idiom will appear ‘dated,' and poorer critical minds attach much greater significance to this word than it deserves. ‘All only constant is in constant change,' but too often the generations see only the change and overlook the constancy. We are, after all, only a link in a chain and each link must, of necessity, lie the opposite way to its predecessor.” Where are we at today with some of the notions Finzi presents?Finzi, G. (1954).

This week I held something of a cultural exchange programme with writer, vlogger, and musician David Hurwitz. Known to many from his reviews website *Classics Today*, the lockdown prompted David to start his very successful YouTube channel earlier this year, which has been gaining a global following ever since. On the show David chooses five of his favourite pieces of British music, I return the compliment with five American classics and we have a discussion peppered with David's inimitable no-nonsense approach and personal anecdotes. It's a highly entertaining show and a great way to end this first season of The Presto Music Podcast. Keep subscribed wherever you get your podcasts though, as we'll be back in the new year with more stimulating chat with the experts.

William Shakespeare, Sonnet VI Then let not winter's ragged hand deface, In thee thy summer, ere thou be distilled: Make sweet some vial; treasure thou some place With beauty's treasure ere it be self-killed. That use is not forbidden usury, Which happies those that pay the willing loan; That's for thy self to breed another thee, Or ten times happier, be it ten for one; Ten times thy self were happier than thou art, If ten of thine ten times refigured thee: Then what could death do if thou shouldst depart, Leaving thee living in posterity? Be not self-willed, for thou art much too fair To be death's conquest and make worms thine heir.

Music and Poetry - Approaching Beethoven's 9th. This is the fourth in a series of podcasts intended to simply walk with you through various composers and their music. Any tool, whether for music lovers, musicians or those new to "classical" music, is always helpful in this creative process of engaged listening. I offer these thoughts to anyone and everyone as a musician who has performed, studied, lived, taught and/or conducted the wide array and miscellany of musical works in the repertoire, be they familiar masterworks or gems that are less frequently performed. In this podcast, with the intention being able to eventually approach listening and talking about Beethoven's 9th (Choral) Symphony, I present an interesting opportunity for engaged and responsive listening in order to have a new perspective about the wedding of words and music - in this case, poetry and music. Most of this process is described in the podcast, so I leave much of the details for later discovery. These podcasts are for EDUCATIONAL use only. Not to be used in any public setting by any media. I STRONGLY recommend headphones because the ambient sounds of many coffee places and offices do not afford the opportunity to fully appreciate the full range of the sound spectrum that is so difficult to replicate outside of a concert hall. Happy listening! CAUTION: Because of the nature of the wide spectrum of the volume of the music, headphones are STRONGLY encouraged. Please be safe. Do not listen to this podcast while driving.
