Podcast appearances and mentions of Howard Blake

Our sermon series on the Book of Acts continues. Interesting and weird things are happening. The news of Jesus continues to spread. The church is growing. The Apostle Philip takes center stage today with his encounter with a curious eunuch. First Prez Transitional Pastor Tim Fearer examines these personalities closely. And he introduces us to Howard Blake whose practice you might want to adopt as your own.

RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey is joined again by Vidar Hjardeng MBE, Inclusion and Diversity Consultant for ITV News across England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands for the next of his regular audio described theatre reviews for 2025. This week continuing the theme of winter tales Vidar was reviewing The Snowman as the production returned home to the Birmingham Repertory Theatre with description by professional Audio Describer Carolyn Smith. About The Snowman The Birmingham Repertory Theatre's enchanting production of The Snowman has been delighting audiences for over 30 years and is the West End's longest running Christmas Show. It returned home over the festive season to give Birmingham audiences the chance to be part of the magic again. When a young boy's snowman comes to life on Christmas Eve, the two set off on a night-time quest for adventure. They meet Father Christmas, dancing penguins, reindeer and crowds of The Snowman's friends, but will they escape evil Jack Frost and get back home for Christmas morning? Based on Raymond Brigg's much-loved book and featuring Howard Blake‘s classic song Walking In The Air, this enchanting live show has thrilled audiences throughout the world since first appearing on stage over twenty-five years ago.  For more about access at the Birmingham Repertory Theatre along with details of audio described performances of their productions do visit - https://www.birmingham-rep.co.uk/your-visit/accessibility/ (Image shows RNIB logo.

We explore its hand-drawn look, Raymond Briggs' knack for hitting us in the feels complimented by the glory of Howard Blake's score - as well as a bit of a Walking In The Air controversy. Was it always destined to become a Christmas staple or is there a rabbit hole here to go down? Join us as we take flight through the snowy landscapes of this bittersweet holiday masterpiece.

On this historic broadcast, Derek sits down with one of the most celebrated film composers in the history of cinema, Howard Blake. At the age of 84, Howard tells us about growing up in the United Kingdom during the Blitz of World War II, how he got accepted to the Royal Academy of Music, his most successful compositions, working with the legendary rock band, Queen, writing music for Princess Diana and of course, his most celebrated and successful work, creating the score for the 1982 animated Christmas classic, The Snowman.

Brian May's brilliant collaboration with composer Howard Blake brings Queen's ninth album Flash Gordon to a close. "The Hero" is a favorite among fans who applaud the song's return to a classic Queen energy, with many insisting this was a missed opportunity. It went over well live, and employs multiple themes heard previously on the soundtrack album. Did you know an alternate version exists? And it's probably the superior version, if you ask me. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/tater-thoughts/message

There's a lot of intensity and tension in these three compositions; and three different members of Queen brought them to life. Roger's "In the Death Cell (Love Theme Reprise)" is a deeper version of his already-dreamy track. John appears for the first time on the soundtrack with "Execution of Flash"; a sparse, pulsing and soulful piece. And finally, Freddie (along with composer Howard Blake) creates an emotional and cinematic soundscape in "The Kiss (Aura Resurrects Flash)". --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/tater-thoughts/message

RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey is joined again by Vidar Hjarding MBE, Inclusion and Diversity Consultant for ITV News across England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the channel Islands for the next in his regular Connect Radio audio described theatre reviews. This time Vidar was reviewing the longest running Christmas show in English Theatre history, ‘The Snowman' at the Birmingham Repertory Theatre with live audio description by Julia Grundy and Caroline Smith. This is the theatre production of the classic film directed by Dianne Jackson and produced by John Coates which was first shown on Channel 4 on Boxing Day 1982. Based on Raymond Brigg's much-loved book and featuring Howard Blake's classic song Walking In The Air, this enchanting live show has thrilled audiences throughout the world since first appearing on stage over twenty-five years ago, going on to become the West End's longest running Christmas show. When a young boy's snowman comes to life on Christmas Eve, the two set off on a night-time quest for adventure. They meet Father Christmas, dancing penguins, reindeer and crowds of The Snowman's friends, but will they escape evil Jack Frost and get back home for Christmas morning? Vidar began by metaphorically taking Toby ‘Walking in the Air' as the famous song by Harold Blake goes and he explained to Toby how a show like The Snowman, which is purely a magical Christmas dance production with no dialogue at all apart from Farther Christmas going ‘Ho, Ho, Ho' was brought to life to him through the well crafted audio description by Julia Grundy and Caroline Smith.   Sadly due to Covid restrictions there was not the opportunity of a touch tour to explore some of the 60 costumes that are used in the production including 11 alone for The Snowman.  As Vidar is a real fan of anything to do with Christmas ‘The Snowman' always features on his Christmas theatre wish list and hopefully next year when the longest running Christmas show in English Theatre returns to the Birmingham Rep there will be the opportunity for blind and partially sighted patrons to go on a touch tour to explore the costumes, props and the set of this magical production too.  (Image shows RNIB logo.

Howard Blake OBE FRAM is a composer, conductor, and pianist whose career has spanned more than 50 years and produced more than 650 works. Blake's most successful work is his soundtrack for Channel 4's 1982 film The Snowman, which includes the song "Walking in the Air". He is increasingly recognised for his classical works including concertos, oratorios, ballets, operas and many instrumental pieces.Missing music, Blake played the piano in pubs and clubs for a couple of years until being discovered and signed by EMI to make a solo album and work as a session musician on many recordings. This led to work as an arranger and a composer, employment that gradually became his full-time occupation.In the late 1960s, on the recommendation of Bernard Herrmann, Blake began working as a keyboard player and arranger with veteran screen composer Laurie Johnson on music for the hit ITV television series The Avengers. During the program's sixth and final season in 1968–1969, Johnson was commissioned to write the soundtrack music for the feature film Hot Millions; to enable him to work on the film score, Johnson recruited Blake to take over composing duties for him, and Blake composed the incidental music for ten complete episodes of that series. In 1970, shortly after the series finished, he lived in a beach hut in Cornwall for about two months, "to get away from it all".Over an active career he has written numerous film scores, including The Duellists with Sir Ridley Scott and David Puttnam, which gained the Special Jury Award at the Cannes Festival in 1977; A Month in the Country with Kenneth Branagh and Colin Firth, which gained him the British Film Institute Anthony Asquith Award for musical excellence in 1989; and The Snowman, which was nominated for an Oscar after its first screening on Channel 4 in 1982, and has won many other prizes internationally. From this, his famous song "Walking in the Air", for which he also wrote the lyrics, was the success that launched Aled Jones in 1985 (although Jones only recorded the song three years after the release of the film, while the song on the soundtrack is sung by the St Paul's chorister Peter Auty. Blake's concert version of The Snowman for narrator and orchestra is now performed worldwide, as is the full-length ballet of the same name, launched in 1997, which in 2013 celebrated its 16th consecutive Christmas season for Sadler's Wells at the Peacock Theatre in London.In 1980, Blake was commissioned to write an orchestral music score for Flash Gordon, in collaboration with Queen. He was given only 10 days to produce the results, and after completion fell ill with pneumonia brought on by exhaustion. He recovered, and he and Queen were jointly nominated for a BAFTA Award. It was, however, a disappointment to him that the makers of Flash Gordon did not use much of his score.Blake has composed many concert works, including the Piano Concerto commissioned by the Philharmonia Orchestra for the 30th birthday of Princess Diana in 1991, in which he also featured as soloist; the Violin Concerto to celebrate the centenary of the City of Leeds in 1993; the cantata to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the United Nations in 1995, performed in the presence of the Royal Family in Westminster Hall; and the large-scale choral/orchestral work Benedictus, championed by Sir David Willcocks and the Bach Choir, which was given its London premiere in Westminster Cathedral in 1989 with Cardinal Basil Hume as narrator, and which has been widely performed ever since.

Flash Gordon, the character, was created back in the 1930's specifically as a space opera.  Space opera is the old science fiction that takes place in outer space but doesn't necessarily follow the knowledge behind the science.  George Lucas brought it all back in the 1970's with STAR WARS (1977).  With it being a huge subgenre once more, in 1980 the film FLASH GORDON as the next big budget film to set off a franchise. New York Jets quarterback Flash Gordon (Sam J. Jones), during space Emperor Ming's (Max von Sydow) invasion of Earth, flies a space rocket with travel agent Dale Arden (Melody Anderson) and scientist Hans Zarkov (Topol) to Ming's palace where they are captured.  With the help of Princess Aura (Ornella Muti) and others, Flash escapes and tries to start an intergalactic rebellion to free all those oppressed by Ming. Produced by Dino De Laurentiis, directed by Mike Hodges, and written by Lorenzo Semple, Jr., based off Alex Raymond's iconic character, the movie gained much press as the band Queen joined as the main composer along with Howard Blake.  Released world wide, the film's retro look and strange story gained it mediocre reviews.  Yet years later fans found the film and gave it the rightful cult following that it has.  Your co-hosts discuss this wonderful film.

001 In the First Place - Selections from Late 60's Soundtracks 01 The Remo Four - In the First Place (Wonderwall 1968 - UK) Mysteriously missing from the original soundtrack release, this George Harrison produced rarity is a perfect example of where psychedelic pop was at during this magical year. 02 The Byrds - Child of the Universe (Candy 1968 - US) The Byrds during one of their finest years in between "Notorious Byrd Bros" and "Sweetheart of the Rodeo".  This version features a different mix than the one from their 1969 album “Dr. Byrds and Mr. Hyde". 03 The Electric Flag - Peter's Trip (The Trip 1967 - US) Before recording their more well known releases for Columbia Records, this Chicago group scored the soundtrack to one of the premier LSD exploito flicks starring Peter Fonda. 04 Nirvana - The Touchables Theme (All of Us) (The Touchables 1968 - UK) A classic title track from a prolific UK pop-psych duo who have made many a fine example of the genre.  This is the reprise mix that ends the original soundtrack. 05 Barbara Kelly & The Morning Good - Maria's Theme  (The Savage Seven 1968 - US) This mystery band makes their only appearance on this soundtrack, leading me to believe they may have been a one off studio outfit created specifically for this score.  06 Howard Blake - An Elephant Called Slowly (Reprise) (An Elephant Called Slowly 1970 - UK) British composer Howard Blake scored this 1969 film with a fittingly stomping soundtrack of instrumentals that are heavy on the drums and percussion. 07 Peter Cooke and Dudley Moore - Bedazzled (Bedazzled 1968 - UK) What can be said of this phased masterpiece by musical and comedic genius Dudley Moore?  Perfection. 08 Jeff Simmons - Vegas Pickup (Naked Angels 1969 - US) Rugged instrumental by Jeff Simmons from an outlaw biker film soundtrack released on Frank Zappa's Straight Records.  Simmons released his solo album "Lucille Has Messed Up My Mind" the same year. 09 John Simon - Drivin' Daisy (Last Summer 1969 - US) This coming of age film from 1969 features a soundtrack composed by organist John Simon.  This driving rocker - no pun intended - features the vocals of Cyrus Faryar who released two solo albums on Elektra in the early 70's. 10 Steve Miller Band - Superbyrd (Revolution 1968 - US) Filmed in San Francisco during the height of the flower power era, this documentary is soundtracked by heavies from the local scene including a young Steve Miller in a rare instrumental moment. 11 Andy Ellison - It's Been a Long Time (Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush 1968 - UK) Lead singer for freakbeat-psych misfits John's Children, Andy Ellison tames things down a touch for this psychedelic love ballad complete with a reference to an "icicle tricycle".All songs recorded from vinyl and curated by Elvin Estela.

With the 40th anniversary re-release of Mike Hodges’s Flash Gordon into cinemas at the end of the month, Matthew Sweet is joined by guitarist Brian May for a look back on the film's groundbreaking score composed by Howard Blake and Queen. Matthew also takes a timely look back across the decades at music for films that have taken their inspiration from comic strips and comic books. Featured films include 'Modesty Blaise', 'Dennis the Menace', 'Popeye', 'Addams Family Values', 'The Peanuts Movie', and 'The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp'; 'The Belles of St Trinians', 'Barbarella', 'The Perils of Gwendoline' and 'Tamara Drewe'; 'The Adventures of Tintin', 'Dick Tracy' and of course 'Flash Gordon'. The Classic Score of the week is Franz Waxman's music for the 1954 Arthurian inspired adventure epic, 'Prince Valiant'. And the programme also includes music from the newly released video-on-demand feature, 'The Old Guard' - based on a 2017 comic book by Greg Rucka and Leandro Fernandez and featuring a new score by Dustin O'Halloran and Volker Bertelmann.

Part three of Lee's look into Canadian-made - or at least shot-in-Canada - horror is here. There's a lot more tracks and background info on the musicians and the films than in the previous two shows, and Lee has tried to better span the scope of Canadian horror, from the early days to more modern times, from low budget to much larger productions. Lee thinks this big list is pretty good, and he hopes you do too. Playlist: --The Gate – Main Title from "The Gate" (1987) --Michael Hoenig & J.

Welcome to the Friday 4 pack for Friday, July 31, 2015. This Week’s winner is Mayor of the Town. Hope you enjoy the show. Mayor of the Town was a old time radio comedy drama starring Lionel Barrymore and Agnes Moorehead which aired on NBC CBS and ABC from 1942 – 1949 ans was written by Jean Holloway, Leonard St. Clair, Howard Blake, Howard Breslin, Charles Tazwell, and Erna Lazarus. Mayor of the Town was directed by Jack Van Nostrand and produced by Murray Bolan. The show dealt with some pretty serious subject matter and Was very well written, acted, And directed. I think you’ll really enjoy the show.

As we enter a 10-day period of relative quiet in the Sands (story-wise)relating to October 6 - 15, we use the spare time to go to the movies. Thanks to Arthur Beale, we got to watch the 1978 film version of The Riddle of the Sands with 40-50 other ROTS fans, and the bulk of this podcast is dedicated to celebrating what turned out to be an excellent evening. First up, though, we urge you again to pledge your support for the Adventure Club - just £25 gets you the Handbook Edition of this classic adventure book, a ‘field’ audio book and access to a month-long web adventure. http://unbound.co.uk/books/riddle-of-the-sands (01:20) A tip of the hat to our hosts Arthur Beale and the purchase of a 1-3/8-inch galvanised rigging screw (06:04); Lloyd (notDavies) runs us through some basic facts about the 1978 film version of The Riddle of the Sands(07:29); we meet the composer of the movie soundtrack, Howard Blake, who gives us some insight into how movie music gets made(09:11); Lloyd gets to meet Club Member Aunt Liz, who disses him about his rope skills (14:55); another treat from Film Club night - maritime artist Martyn Mackrill brings along a wonderful painting of ‘The Dulcibella’ and briefly talks us through its conception (16:47). Someone attending the Film Club night reveals they own a Rippingille stove!(21:16); a discussion about ‘the row to Memmert’ and the perils of running too far ahead in the story (22:24); our main impressions of the film, starting with the rather obvious anti-German tropes and the shadow of two world wars.(25:27); the stepmother (26:40); the radical changes to the story in the opening and the ending of the film (27:01). Club member Kevin challenges the presence of the Kaiser in the film (28:20) and uses a detailed knowledge of times and dates to identify Tirpitz as a much more likely person to be involved in a nefarious naval plan in October 1898 (31:33); Lloyd gets upset about the number of deaths in the film and we discuss the merits of murder in action movies (35:14). NEXT WEEK: there's talk of a trip to Norfolk to see a man with a boat that is a bit like The Medusa, plus a visit to a clothes shop that might kit us out in Norfolk jackets (37:41); ahoy to Oliver at Brooks who is focussing our minds on the cycling element of our proposed Adventure - can two men like us really complete the long bike trip that our trip to Germany will involve? (38:43).
