The big news for symphonic concert goers in 2022 is of course the return of Simone Young to the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, this time in the role of Chief Conductor. Fine Music Magazine caught up with her in San Francisco just as she was informed that her concerts in Tokyo had been cancelled due to the evolving Covid situation. She will celebrate the re-opening of the Sydney Opera House Concert Hall in July with performances of Mahler’s aptly tagged Resurrection Symphony.

One of the mainstays of Fine Music Sydney’s output has been the regular Wednesday evening broadcast and streaming of complete operas. In this month’s issue, Elaine Siversen lays out the details of the coming year’s performances and the way in which they are themed from month to month.

Fine Music Sydney has always encouraged local music and emerging musicians, establishing an Artist in Residence program in 2016. This annual award of $10,000 covers promotional support through our on-air and online marketing channels and the use of our Fine Music Founders’ Studio for rehearsals and recordings. This year’s Jazz recipient is Anoesis, a Sydney based quintet formed in 2017 from a group of second year students at UNSW Sydney.

We wish our readers and listeners the very best for 2022, and trust that our local music scene recovers from the cruel blows it has been dealt in the last two years. Happy New Year! david.ogilvie@finemusicsydney.com

Skryabin – 150 years on David Brett reflects on Skryabin’s life and music

“I am the apotheosis of world creation. I am the aim of aims, the end of ends.” It might be thought appropriate that a man who could give these words to the autobiographical hero of his opera had been born (according to the Julian calendar, used in Russia at the time) on Christmas Day 1871. That man, with his Messiah complex, was Alexander Skryabin. Few composers have better illustrated the thinness of the line between genius and insanity.

It had not always been thus. Skryabin was born in Moscow into a family of minor nobility. His mother died when he was still an infant and, with his father often abroad, young Alexander was brought up by a combination of his grandmother, aunt, and great aunt, who all doted on him. Displaying early musical talent, he was sent for piano lessons with Nikolai Zverev.

A charming photo survives from the late 1880s of Zverev surrounded by his pupils, including Skryabin and Rachmaninov, two of the greatest pianists of the age.

Skryabin later studied at the Moscow Conservatory.

He graduated in 1892 with a gold medal in piano performance and spent the next few years touring Russia and Europe as a concert pianist, to growing acclaim.

In 1897 he married, and accepted a teaching post at the Moscow Conservatory, allowing him more time to devote to composition. His hero was Chopin, and in those years he stuck to the Romantic style, composing études, preludes, three sonatas, his only piano concerto and two symphonies.

Thus far, conventional and unremarkable – his career running virtually on a parallel track with Rachmaninov.

All this was to change, however, from 1903. No obvious external event triggered it, but driven by some inner force, Skryabin left Moscow and moved his family to Switzerland. A year later, he abandoned his wife and four children, started a new relationship, and lived a peripatetic existence travelling Europe and the United States, before returning to Russia in 1909.

Chronicle / Alamy Stock Photo

Musically, he conceived the idea of an opera, with himself as the unnamed hero. This was then abandoned in favour of a genre he called ‘poems’. The Poem, op 32 no 2 and Poeme Tragique, op 34 were early examples (both intended originally as arias in the opera) and were followed by Symphony no 3, The Divine Poem and The Poem of Ecstasy, op 54, arguably Skryabin’s masterpieces.

Stylistically, he began moving away from late Romanticism towards more dissonant musical language, even atonality.

Back in Russia, Skryabin became increasingly obsessed by theosophy, a religious movement which believed God could be encountered directly through spiritual ecstasy, and by synesthesia, which associates letters, numbers, or in Skryabin’s case, musical keys, with particular colours. These influences caused him to conceive ever more grandiose projects, culminating in Mysterium, a multimedia work planned to be performed in the foothills of the Himalayas as “a religious synthesis of all arts which would bring forth a new world”. Only sketches of this exist as, in 1915, aged only 43, he died after an infected boil on his lip turned septic – hardly the end he would have envisaged for himself.

Was Skryabin a lost genius? Celebrated during his life, but largely forgotten afterwards, the 150th anniversary of his birth is a good time to reflect and re-evaluate the music he has left us.

The well-tempered clavier – the great achievement Andrew Dziedzic looks at the genius of J.S. Bach

Is it possible to write a brief article about Bach's The Well-Tempered Clavier, Book 1, a seminal collection of 24 preludes and fugues in every major and minor key, for the 300th anniversary of its completion in 1722? It's like being asked to mention the greatness of Shakespeare or of Van Gogh – the achievement is too great, too multifaceted and so full of the summit of human genius that it defies adequate description. Surely the very attempt must involve a narrowing of focus, thus diminishing the complexity, richness, and subtlety of the whole?

However, if these few words of mine pique the curiosity of even one reader enough to explore these works, that will be enough!

Why are these preludes and fugues described as ‘well-tempered’? And what is a clavier? What is the point of composing such a collection? What makes this collection fundamental for conservatorium courses all over the world?

In Bach’s time the tuning system for keyboard pieces wasn’t settled, and a satisfactory system that covered all 24 major and minor keys hadn’t yet been discovered.

Although it had been tried before with only partial success, Bach’s achievement in composing works that could be played according to one system was significant – one which could then be described as ‘well-tempered’, that is, with a result that wasn’t too sharp (or flat). Yet we still don’t know the exact system that Bach employed – some modern musicologists even interpret a scroll design at the top of Bach’s manuscript as the key (!) to the system Bach employed.

And when Bach refers to a clavier – at a time before the invention of the fortepiano – he indicates that these pieces could be performed on any keyboard instrument, including the harpsichord, clavichord, or organ.

Earlier versions of some of the pieces in this collection appeared in a collection of works composed for the instruction of Bach’s son Wilhelm Friedemann, and indeed Bach’s own foreword refers to these works as being equally instructional for students of the keyboard and those who are skilled. However, they are supremely instructional on the level of fugue composition, as well as instructional in the sense of posing many and varied challenges for the performer.

And when Bach refers to a clavier – at a time before the invention of the fortepiano – he indicates that these pieces could be performed on any keyboard instrument, including the harpsichord, clavichord, or organ.

In Bach’s day, each key denoted a particular emotional effect which was meant to be stimulated and explored.

In doing so, Bach was also demonstrating his contrapuntal skills in the fugues, his ability to create overlaid variations on a theme or themes, weaving the fabric of the music together, forwards, backwards and upside down, often in several voices. At the same time, Bach was exploring each key, seeking to influence the listener towards various reactions that reflected the joy, sorrow, or reflection implied by that key. In other words, Bach might be said to be using music to discover what it means to be human, to laugh, to cry, to dance and to dream – and to contemplate the infinite like a prism of musical mirrors lined up beside each other into the distance.

No wonder music from The Well-Tempered Clavier was included on the golden record sent into space on the Voyager spaceship as part of the evidence of the potential of human genius!

First Person Simone Young Sydney Symphony Orchestra’s Chief Conductor Designate talks to Andrew Bukenya

As all Sydney classical music lovers will know by now, the celebrated conductor Simone Young will take up the post of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra’s Chief Conductor in 2022, only the third Australian to have held the Chief Conductor role in the Sydney Symphony’s 90-year history. In her illustrious career, she has conducted a wide repertoire ranging from Mozart, Verdi, Puccini, Hindemith, Britten and Henze, but is in particular an acknowledged interpreter of the operas of Wagner and Strauss.

Fine Music’s Andrew Bukenya caught up with her shortly after her arrival in San Francisco, in the eighth week of a tour of eight different cities, with eight different programs. Simone was extremely generous with her time, so much so that we decided to split the interview into two, with the second half appearing in February’s issue of Fine Music Magazine.

Your inaugural concert is scheduled for July 2022 in the newly renovated Sydney Opera House, and you're going to conduct Mahler’s Resurrection Symphony. Hopefully, there are as many people who don't know this incredible beatific work as people who love it and will fly around the world to hear it. I would love to hear your thoughts about that piece and what it means to you.

Sure. I have conducted the Second Symphony of Mahler a number of times, and I've recorded it as well with the Hamburg Philharmonic, which I brought to Australia in 2012 to the Brisbane Festival where we performed Mahler II. So, I have a history with the work, but there's something poetic about performing a resurrection symphony for the resurrection of a concert hall. I think it's just such a powerful work that covers a huge range of emotions but also a huge range of orchestral expressions.

By that I mean that it goes from one voice and one accompanying instrument in the mezzo solo, at times to full powers, expanded brass, full choir, the biggest expanse, and so in terms of putting a new hall through

its paces, it's perfect. It's also very moving for an audience because it's a long build… you’ve got the powerful dramatic first movement, and then the gentler approach to the central movements, and then the final movement just takes over. Mahler says in a letter that he got the idea for the final movement while he was attending a requiem for a colleague in Saint Michael’s church in Hamburg.

Another strong connection is that the first time I heard the work live, it was with Stuart Challender conducting SSO in the Sydney Town Hall. I actually have Stuart’s score from that performance…

08

So, he will be with you…

He will be with me, yes... so I have a real mix of musical, emotional, and personal connections with the work, making it a very natural choice to open the season.

I was once fortunate enough to see you conducting Das klagende Lied, and I would like to ask what it was like conducting a work which is not as often performed as Mahler II. It has a kaleidoscope of colour, of energy, of power like the Resurrection, but it also has something else, a fantasy element…

09

Yes, and it has a program. It tells a story, which the Resurrection Symphony doesn't so much. I performed it once before in Hamburg. It's very difficult to get out of conducting a lot of Mahler and Brahms in Hamburg because they both lived there, and they were both my predecessors in the job. But yes, with Das klagende Lied, I did the three-part version, which is very seldom done – but what I think is so extraordinary is how young he was when he wrote it. Later on, he dismissed the first section deciding he didn't want it, so it was just the second and third sections which were then always performed.

But you miss too much of the establishment of the motifs if you leave out the first section. I always perform it in the three-part version because that was how he originally conceived it. I expect he discarded the first, not through his own wish, but more through other people's advice and because he was so young… So yes, I've done a great deal of Mahler, and I've conducted them all a number of times, except the 8th. It’s the only one I haven't done yet, because I've never found the right occasion and the right venue and the right constellation. I will do it sometime, I'm not in any great hurry, but I do intend to do at least one Mahler Symphony every year in my Sydney Symphony time.

I love that you talk about collaboration in that way because we need to do things that invite people in…

Then we have Brahms, and we have Britten, so with that in mind, talk us through what you feel might be some of the highlights that you're looking forward to conducting.

Absolutely, and that put works that we know and love into a context as well. There's a lot of criticism of classical music in the general press – that it's elitist, a museum, the work of dead old white male Europeans, and what relevance does that have for our times?

And yet, if you contextualise the work with either visual or verbal references that take the work beyond its framework of time and place, and you pull the work down to its core issues, the masterpieces are masterpieces because those core issues are relevant.

Have always been relevant, always will be relevant.

Fidelio is about triumph through sacrifice and love, so when is that not relevant?

I’d like to establish some through-lines that we will carry from one season to the next so people will learn to expect that this will happen at this time of the year.

For example, closing the year with a concertante opera is going to become a regular feature of the seasons, and I'm very excited about Fidelio. Next year we've gathered a really stellar cast, but the problem with Fidelio is always the dialogues. Even the most avid Beethoven specialist and fan must admit that Beethoven dialogues are very clunky…

It wasn’t his strong point…

So what do you do with German dialogues for an English-speaking audience? It's very weird doing them in English and then singing in German, but if you do them in German with English subtitles, you lose the directness. So we threw out all the dialogues and Tyson Yunkaporta created five passages of prose which I will insert at different points throughout the opera.

I love collaboration. It's enriching for the music, because it gives me new impulses, and enriching for the audience because they can put a work that is familiar into a completely new frame or context. So, this idea of collaborating is also going to be something that continues.

That is fantastic...

Opera is extraordinary when you have the whole thing staged, the costumes, the concept, all of that is wonderful… But the works themselves have so much substance that if you communicate them appropriately, you're effectively inviting the audience to create its own production, to use and expand its imagination, using this music, using what its understanding is of the text to create its own mental pictures. … And I think concertante opera done the right way and communicated the right way can be an incredibly invigorating experience.

Beethoven's highest humanistic ideals are still the ideals of most people. That love, sacrifice, doing the right thing, leads to a better life, and that injustice is defeated. It's a very idealistic opera, a very Utopian opera in the end, but I think that's a great way to finish the season. Tyson's texts take reference from the historic background of the work because it was originally based on a supposedly true story, set in the time of the French Revolution, which Beethoven moved to Spain. But Tyson takes the core of the story and places it in different time frames throughout history, so that suddenly one sees the greatness of the work, that it is not just confined to a Spanish prison. It’s about oppression and the search for liberation, and the search for the greater good.

We lost so much of the Beethoven year in 2020 that I was determined to finish my first season with a statement. For me Fidelio is the culmination of Beethoven's ideals, both musically and from the point of view of his philosophy and ideology. So, we're doing a retake and rethink on 2020, and I can't wait until 2022 to do all that.

10

No, and neither should you. I think great art shouldn’t shy away from Utopian ideals, it should encourage us all to dream and to hopefully come away in a better frame of mind…

Hopefully to come away inspired, and with new ideas, awakened or regenerated… The idea of a concertante opera is going to be a recurring theme at the end of every season for my time with the orchestra, and also the Mahler at the beginning of the season. We're starting a cycle of the Beethoven piano concertos with Javier Perianes, a wonderful Spanish pianist with whom I've worked a great deal. Also, the collaboration with the Belvoir St Theatre is very exciting.

The Midsummer Night's Dream. I love the fact that your programming is so broad, and that you are leading with collaborative ideas. And then we have the idea of audience choice. Tell me a little about that.

This is something I did in Hamburg, and it was great fun for everybody. The audience in Sydney has been incredibly supportive of the orchestra through the closures, so I was trying to think of a way we could say thank you. We can't fulfil everybody's wishes, and we haven't quite worked out exactly in which format we're going to do it, but in Hamburg we collaborated with one of the city's major newspapers with a big double spread listing ten categories, and everybody voted for their top five in each category. The other thing is that although we might drop the odd hint, we will not announce the program until the first concert. It’s great fun for everyone, but the main thing is to offer our audience the chance to say, ‘I'd like to hear that’, and then we can really give some of the ownership of the concert to the audience.

Anoesis – Jazz Artists in Residence Barry O'Sullivan interviews Tomas Ford, spokesperson for Anoesis

Fine Music has always encouraged local music and emerging musicians. Beginning in 2016 our Artist in Residence program was offered annually, giving recipients access to studios for recording, sound engineers, rehearsal facilities, as well as promotional support. Value at $10,000, it includes support through our on-air and online marketing channels and the use of our Fine Music Founders’ Studio for rehearsals. This year’s Jazz Artists in Residence recipients are Anoesis. To familiarise our readers with this recent addition to our Fine Music Jazz family, I posed these questions to the spokesperson for the band, Tomas Ford.

When and how was the band formed?

The current band consists of myself on Double Bass, Alistair Johnston on tenor saxophone, Greg Stopic on alto saxophone, Eitan Muir on guitar, and Ryu Kodama on drums. Anoesis came together in early 2017, as a gaggle of second-years in the Bachelor of Music degree at UNSW Sydney. I remember Eitan inviting me to hang with Greg, Ali and our first drummer Patrick Rogers, who was in third year at the time.

They had been playing together a little since the previous year, so we played a couple of jazz standards and some original tunes that Eitan and Greg had composed, and the band formed kind of organically from there. We started playing a few times per week, working on more compositions that started to come through, learning tunes from the jazz canon and rehearsing for each other's performance exams. We used to hang back after classes and sneak into the big practice rooms when they were left unlocked.

The medical definition of Anoesis is consciousness that is pure passive receptiveness without understanding or intellectual organization of the materials presented. How does the band aim to achieve this with their music?

We had already done one show under a temporary name.

One day Pat and Ali found anoesis by checking out the 'word of the day' on dictionary.com. We picture it as a positive state of mind – a state of transcendent, open receptiveness, rather than an empty mental state. I think anoesis does speak to an attitude perpetuated through jazz improvisational practice (the famous Charlie Parker quote, “learn it then forget it”). When we're playing, we try to make each composition feel easy, even if it's difficult. I think the meaning for us has changed a little over time. When we started out, we were playing 'free' quite a lot, and our early compositions featured long modal solo sections which allowed heaps of space for the band to stretch out, to find different approaches toward the same piece of material. Now more than ever, the band name acts as a reminder to just be 'in' it, and to try and leave your ego

12

off the stage. It's not something we really speak about in rehearsal or on the bandstand, but it's kind of an unspoken ideal. When you take a solo or play a gig where you feel that you transcend beyond being stuck in your thoughts or over-intellectualising what you are doing as a band – that is the feeling we look for. It is fleeting and takes some humility and a lot of trust in your bandmates. So in terms of how we aim to achieve that as a band, it is a state we're always reaching for.

What does each band member bring to the project to make it such a unique listening experience?

What makes Anoesis a unique and interesting band is that all of us present quite a diverse listening experience and playing style that is expressed through each member's compositions. Although Greg has written most of our catalogue, we don’t have just one composer – each member of the band contributes pieces. This also influences how we each contribute subsequent pieces; if we really like a particular feature of, say, Greg's newest composition, elements of that will often be woven into Ali's next tune.

As artists who write, each member brings a very strong voice, even when playing another person’s composition. But we’re all forced to somehow bend or contort to make the tune work without disfiguring ourselves to the point of losing each personality. I think it's such a particular listening experience because it's quite a fragile balance that has the potential to fall apart easily under these stresses. At the same time, when the balance is right it can really make powerful things happen.

What is your mission statement for your artist in residency?

During our residency we will record our second album Dancing Waters, an album of compositions which were inspired by the natural landscapes of eastern Australia. The title track is my composition Dancing Waters which was written after a visit to Gwongorella/Purling Brook Falls in YugambehBundjalung country in Queensland. The Yugambeh name Gwongorella translates to ‘Dancing Waters’ in English. Alongside Ali’s composition Regenerate, which was composed in response to regrowth on the blackened trees that were devastated by the 2019-2020 bushfires on the NSW south coast, we endeavoured to make an album that reflects the beauty, significance, and resilience of the country that we are privileged to inhabit. We found that quite a few of our existing compositions were already quite closely tied to this theme. We also want to approach this project with the awareness that although we are surrounded by such beauty in Australia, natural ecosystems in this country are under severe threat. This has been the case since European colonisation affected First Nations people, and it seems to only be worsening looking into the future. So we’re trying to balance a celebration of the country we live in with a candid view of its past and future. We are also proud of our compositions and of each other as musicians, and with this album we are trying to produce a unique artwork that we can curate to demonstrate the best of our compositional and performing abilities. How we arrange the compositions for this album may or may not end up being how we would play them live at a gig, but we will try and use this album to create an experience that may or may not be as successful or hit differently in a live setting.

The band has toured internationally to the Bucharest National Jazz Competition. What were some of the challenges that you encountered and what were some of the benefits gained?

We were fortunate to have financial support from UNSW for the trip, which was secured by our mentor, Sandy Evans and some of the other faculty members lobbying extensively on our behalf. At Sandy's advice we also set up a fundraiser with the Australian Cultural Fund at the university, and received a surprising amount of support from family, friends, and the community.

We just about managed to cover return flights and accommodation in Bucharest for the two weeks, so we were stoked! Naturally, we got the cheapest return flights money could buy, and ended up with a 30 something hour trip each way, with two connecting flights in Abu Dhabi and Amsterdam. It turned out not to be easy to squeeze carry-on instruments into the baggage compartments on a domestic flight – I remember Ali had his tenor in his lap for part of the trip. There were difficulties for all groups involved; organisation within the competition was pretty loose and there was a general lack of communication.

They had our email addresses and a WhatsApp group, but for some reason everything important was communicated on a single piece of paper and pinned up on the noticeboard of the hotel that hosted the semi-finals. We were staying at a B&B a few kilometres away, so rather than being notified by the competition administrators, it was one of the other bands – Masala Quartet from Moscow – who told us we had made the finals. For myself, what was most affirming was not receiving the prize, but recognising that all the people we met and played with were incredible musicians, not all that different from bands that we know and see all the time in Australia.

There was a lot of warmth and respect between all the musicians involved on both personal and musical levels, and we had a wonderful experience being there together as a band.

How would you describe your sound and what are its specific musical influences?

We think of ourselves as an acoustic band, in the sense that we only have one truly electric instrument. and draw on the American jazz of the 1960s as a foundation.

Though that influence may not always be immediately evident, we want to carry the deep spirit embodied in that music. I suppose our sound is centred in the more contemporary or modern jazz style, and influenced

by European folk, Middle Eastern jazz, contemporary classical, rock, West African styles, and whatever else takes our fancy. We have an ‘anything goes’ approach to style and bringing in different influences and then we try and filter that through our approach to playing. The influences on the band are tough to boil down, as each member brings a broad and unique range into the mix, but a few of the most important names would be Sandy Evans (of course), Alister Spence (who also mentored us at UNSW), Linda Oh, The Catholics, Barney McCall, John Coltrane, Joe Henderson, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Mark Turner, Brian Blade, Or Bareket… we could go on!

The 20th century French composer, Jean Françaix, always knew he wanted to be a composer. From the age of five, when he used to go for walks with his grandmother in the countryside around his birth town of Le Mans, he would listen to the birds and time his steps to the beat of their song. Then sometimes, just for fun, he’d double the beat.

For the first 40 years of his life he lived in Le Mans, only leaving his hometown for overseas visits. Music was his passport, for he spoke no other language than French. America was where he had most success. His works were performed. He represented French music.

From 1960 onwards, the now 48-year-old Françaix was travelling the world. Britain, Germany, even Japan.

These international tours gave him the prominence he deserved as a pianist of supreme ability. He enjoyed playing concerts of his own works, demonstrating his brilliant pianistic ability, although he always declared that he detested practising his instrument! On one occasion when asked to play one of his earliest compositions, he was even heard to protest, cursing the difficulty of the arrangement!

By the age of six he’d written his first composition, and composing was all he ever did from that time on.

At ten Françaix performed his own music from an early age, and he was used to having contact with the public throughout his adolescence. He was an excellent pianist, proven when he played Ravel’s Sonatine and Chabrier’s Scherzo-valse for his second exam at the Le Mans Conservatory.

From the age of 60 on he lived in Paris, receiving musicians and lovers of music into his home with pleasure. He would play them his recent compositions, interspersed with musical pictures and remarks on the modern world. He would recount memories from the past, like the time he was engaged as page turner for Stravinsky, or his first meeting with Arturo Toscanini.

And of course, the importance of bird song.

Upon graduation (naturally with first prize!) he said that, unlike most of his colleagues, he wasn’t interested in teaching in an institution, but would choose exclusively to compose. As fellow composer Georges Auric claimed at the time, he was “inebriated by the blank page”, meaning that he could not rest 24 hours without writing music.

From then on, works flowed from him like milk from a well-fed dairy cow. He wrote about 115 published compositions in all, and in every conceivable style and genre. His style is most generally marked by lightness and a degree of wit. He integrated the ideas that he gleaned from composers he admired, like Emmanuel Chabrier and Francis Poulenc, but never copied.

“I am now 85 years old, I had a happy, full life,” he confided in his cousin Jacqueline, who was the inspiration of his first compositions, just before he died in September 1997.

From the Drama to the Unexpected Elaine Siversen explores the coming year’s opera themes

Illustration by Lyndon Pike

One larger-than-life character dominates the stage in Shakespeare’s The Merry Wives of Windsor and in a very well-known opera by Verdi. Almost 100 years before, Salieri wrote his version of this comedy with its finale of shenanigans in Windsor Forest when the merry wives are the victors over a jealous husband and the would-be seducer, Falstaff. Salieri’s Falstaff opens the 2022 year of Wednesday night operas.

A theme has been planned across the four weeks of each month, but the fifth Wednesday in March, June, August, and November is an exception. In 'Opera Oscura' we can hear some lesser-known operas from the Baroque and Classical repertoire. This year they are by Myslivecek, Hasse, a double bill of Gossec and Méhul, and finally, a lesser-known opera of Gluck.

January and February

two nights before Good Friday will be based on the last days of Jesus from the perspective of Mary Magdalene. Massenet wrote the sacred drama MarieMagdaleine to be performed on Good Friday in 1873.

The famed contralto, Pauline Viardot, sang the title role and the opera was praised by Tchaikovsky, Gounod, and Bizet.

'From the Drama Theatre' is the theme for January and February with all librettos based on stage plays with a mixture of happy endings and tragedies.

After beginning with the comedic Shakespearean characters, we follow with Die Räuber, the tragedy of the great German dramatist, Friedrich von Schiller, on which the libretto of Verdi’s I masnadieri, or The Robbers was based. Les Venétiens, a melodrama by French playwright Antoine-Vincent Arnault, was the inspiration for Rossini’s Bianca e Falliero and another Frenchman, Jean-Pierre Claris, wrote the play on which Donizetti’s Zoraide di Granata was based. This opera premiered in January 200 years ago.

May and June 'Myths and Legends' have always been a reliable source for opera composers and librettists, and we begin this theme in May with the 250th anniversary of the premiere of the 15-year-old Mozart’s Il sogno di Scipione with a libretto by the great Metastasio based on Cicero’s writings, so a star-studded line-up here.

Also in May, Médée (Charpentier), Merlin (Albéniz), Persée et Andromède (Ibert) and Orfeo ed Euridice (Bertoni) are scheduled, the latter two as a double bill.

February brings two more anniversaries. The stone guest by Alexander Dargomizhsky premiered 150 years ago and is the story of Don Juan taken almost word-for-word from Pushkin’s play, The stone guest.

Rossini’s Zelmira, which premiered 50 years before that, is based on a play by Pierre-Laurent de Belloy.

Rimsky-Korsakov’s first opera, The maid of Pskov, begins the month. Its libretto, from a play by Lev Mei, recounts a fictitious incident in a campaign of Ivan the Terrible. Finally, Giordano’s Madame Sans-Gêne, a comedy which includes Napoleon, is based on a play by two Frenchmen Victorien Sardou and Émile Moreau.

In June, 'Historical Persons' make their appearance on the operatic stage with Croesus by Reinhard Keiser, the most famous name in Hamburg before Telemann.

Croesus reigned for 14 years from 560BC as King of Lidia until his defeat by the Persian king, Cyrus the Great (Cyrus II). Much of the story of Croesus is legendary, including his descent from Hercules.

Historically, he is credited with being the first ruler to issue gold coins and the phrase, ‘rich as Croesus’, has added to the legendary biography of an actual king.

Margherita d’Anjou was the wife of King Henry VI of England. Meyerbeer wrote this opera about Queen Margaret, a major player in the Wars of the Roses.

Her contemporary, the Duke of Suffolk, praised ‘her valiant courage and undaunted spirit’ while Edward Hall wrote: "This woman excelled all other, as well in beauty and favour, as in wit and policy, and was of stomach and courage, more like to a man, than a woman.”

March and April 'Abandoned Lovers' is the theme for March with Puccini’s Madama Butterfly, Handel’s adaptation of Vinci’s Didone abbandonata, Wagner’s Lohengrin and Verdi’s The force of destiny.

We turn to 'Biblical Figures' in April and, while these events occur in the Bible, the opera stories are fictionalised with dramatic embellishments. Verdi’s character, Nabucco or Nebuchadnezzar, appears in several books of the Bible while Montéclair’s Jepthé, the tragic story of Jephthah and his daughter, is from the Book of Judges. The Queen of Sheba visiting King Solomon seeking wisdom (found in I Kings) inspired Gounod to write his opera. The biblical account has little detail of the meeting of the rulers, so a love story has been created for Queen Balkis with one of Solomon’s subjects. The opera to be presented

The operas in June continue with Verdi’s Simon Boccanegra, the historical figure being the first Doge of Venice in the 14th century. The final opera of the month is not about a person but is based on that person’s stories. Marking the 200th anniversary of the death of Ernest Theordore Amadeus Hoffmann, author, composer, music critic, artist and jurist, our tribute to a remarkable man will be Offenbach’s The tales of Hoffmann.

July and August 'French Librettists for French Opera' in July brings us almost totally French fare with all composers born in France except Meyerbeer who was born in Berlin.

He spent a great deal of his life in Paris where, from the age of 30, he wrote French operas. Six years after Meyerbeer’s first Paris opera, his spectacular grand opera, Les Huguenots, premiered with the libretto written by Eugène Scribe and Émile Deschamps.

Although most of the stories of the following operas in July are not French stories, Frenchmen wrote the librettos for Le toréador by Adam and L’heure espagnole

by Ravel, presented in a double bill, followed by Massenet’s Sapho and, finally, Magnard’s Guercoeur for which he wrote his own libretto.

It was an early 18th century poet, Tommaso Grossi, who wrote a poem about the First Crusade that became the source of Verdi’s I Lombardi, but some famous Italians of the distant past are the originators of most stories of the October operas where the theme is 'From Italian Literature'. The stories of the double bill of Rachmaninov’s Francesca da Rimini and Puccini’s Gianni Schicci are found in Dante’s The Divine Comedy. Handel’s Semele is even older, coming from the pen of the Roman poet Ovid and his Metamorphoses of 8 AD, while the story of Vivaldi’s Griselda can be found in Boccaccio’s The Decameron.

November and December The November theme, 'The Supernatural', is a common theme intended to entrance audiences with fantasy, magic, or inexplicable happenings.

Three favourite characters appear: The Vampire (by Marshner), Mefistofle (by Boito) and Faust (by Gounod), where Mephistopheles is the dominant force. The other supernatural opera is Janácek’s The Makropoulos affair, in which a woman in the present unexpectedly turns out to be from the past.

In August, the operas feature ‘Kings: Real and Legendary’. Handel’s Xerxes is loosely based on Cyrus I, King of Persia, while Mozart’s Idomeneo is a legendary monarch, the King of Crete. After the Trojan War, the action takes place in Crete involving a Trojan princess and the famous Electra, daughter of the Greek king, Agamemnon. It was one of Mozart’s late operas and is considered to be one of his greatest.

One of the greatest of the legendary kings is King Arthur, immortalised so vividly in literature that many archaeologists have searched for evidence of his existence, and some believe that they have proved that he was a real person, if not the heroic figure of the legends. In Chausson’s Le Roi Arthus we find the characters of Guinevere, Lancelot, Merlin and Mordred. The downfall of the Round Table is foretold leading to the final days of Arthur and Camelot.

Finally, Verdi’s opera A masked ball concludes with the assassination of the real Swedish king, Gustav III.

The unexpected continues in December with five very different 'Unexpected Endings'. In Nielsen’s Maskarade an arranged marriage turns out well for separated lovers. In Gluck’s Der betrogen Kadi a judge is duped into marriage with the wrong woman but the deception is revealed before the wedding. This is teamed with Cimarosa’s L’impressario in angustie in which the impressario’s production is plagued by three feuding prima donnas and a romance but is suddenly ended when the impressario is declared bankrupt.

September and October

The comedy in Christmas Eve by Rimsky-Korsakov is provided by a witch, a sorcerer, and the Devil. The love interest involves the hero asking the Tsarina for her boots, and his sudden appearance with the boots on Christmas Eve after he is thought to have committed suicide. The last opera of 2022, Mozart’s Lucio Silla, was premiered on 26 December 1772, 250 years ago. The tyrant abuses his power as a ruler, condemns subjects to death then unexpectedly pardons them and retires to private life.

The four operas of September are devoted to the same main character, with story variations between operas.

Tasso’s Saracen Sorceress appears firstly in Lully’s The tragedy of Armide, followed by Gluck’s Armide, Haydn’s Armida and Rossini’s Armida. The inspiration for these operas was Torquato Tasso’s epic poem set during the Crusades. Gerusalemme liberata (Jerusalem Delivered) tells how Armida has been sent to stop the Christians delivering Jersualem from the Saracens by killing the fearsome warrior, Rinaldo. As she looks upon the handsome sleeping knight, she falls in love with him and spirits him away to an enchanted garden where she holds him as a lovesick prisoner. Eventually, Rinaldo is released from Armida’s enchantment.

We feel sure that you’ll enjoy the monthly themes planned for the operas of 2022 with their wide variety of composers and wonderful singers. You’ll hear these complete operas in At the Opera at 8pm every Wednesday.

Volunteer Spotlight Robert Vale Pamela Newling talks to Robert Vale, jazz programmer and presenter

Where does a jazz aficionado celebrate a special birthday? Newport Jazz Festival is the answer for jazz presenter Robert Vale, who has celebrated not one, but two significant birthdays there!

The three-day Newport Jazz Festival, founded in 1954, is held in late July or early August at Fort Adams Park, a former US Army post overlooking the spectacularly beautiful sailing waters of Newport Harbour, Rhode Island.

Volunteering with 2MBS offers the perfect mix of radio and a life-long love of jazz for Robert, who says: “As a child of the 1940s, radio was central to my home. I could listen to children’s shows, music, quiz shows, drama serials or sports broadcasts. It was my link to the outside world, which I highly valued. By the time I reached my mid-teens radio had become my permanent and main listening source for music.”

As a child Robert sang in choirs and at eisteddfods, and played banjo mandolin for two years and bugle in his high school cadet band. Robert comments: “By the end of the ‘50s, major jazz performers from the United States such as Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald, Coleman Hawkins, and Dizzy Gillespie, to mention just a few, were regular visitors and my interest in jazz soared. At the same time, I ‘discovered’ Sydney jazz clubs, including the iconic El Rocco which was Sydney’s crucible of contemporary jazz and often featured players such as Judy Bailey and Mike Nock.”

At the end of a lengthy career with Sydney-based financial organisations in the funding of strategic projects in property development, mining and transport, Robert volunteered with another community station, where his interest in music was spotted and he found himself behind a microphone presenting a jazz program. He says: “It seemed like an appropriate retirement activity considering what radio had given me.”

2MBS beckoned Robert in 2013. Apart from jazz, Robert likes early 20th century classical French and Spanish music. A favourite jazz album is Miles Davis’ Sketches of Spain which includes interpretations by Davis and Gil Evans of classical pieces originally composed by Manuel de Falla and Joaquin Rodrigo.

As a child of the 1940s, radio was central to my home. I could listen to children’s shows, music, quiz shows, drama serials or sports broadcasts. It was my link to the outside world, which I highly valued.

Robert explains some of the challenges in presenting: “While music choice is the single biggest factor, the way a program is delivered is also important. Sequencing can have detrimental or enhancing effects on a listener’s experience.

In an hour of jazz, on average there will be about ten individual pieces. None are symphonies and it’s up to the presenter to arrange a sequence which best suits. Contrast is often a useful tool and sometimes it may be best to save a particular piece for another day.”

Robert’s other interests include his seven-year-old grandson’s budding career as a guitarist; European and South Korean cinema; cooking the perfect fish pie; and experimenting in his courtyard garden.

CD REVIEWS Self Centre

Sarah Elise Thompson https://www.sarahelisethompson.com/

Sarah Elise Thompson is a young Sydney-based composer who studied at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music with Gerard Brophy. She has received commissions from a wide range of artists, including The Song Company, Australian Youth Orchestra, Ensemble Offspring, PLEXUS and Deborah Cheetham, some of whom return the favour and appear on this album. The longest work, at just under ten minutes, is Undone, which won the Emerging Composer Competition at the inaugural Women in Music Festival in 2019. It features a surprisingly romantic violin introduction, leading into an impassioned performance by soprano

Deborah Cheetham of lyrics by poet Stephanie Millett. In the shortest piece, Core, a double bass emerges from silence, only to give way to exultant trumpet and rippling piano. Striking Out, performed

by Ensemble Offspring, features measured wind and dark string notes over searching percussion. Elsewhere Thompson offers the listener tantalising glimpses of other musical worlds, with both Sanddollar and Pink Salt ‘unearthing’ fragments of melody and rhythm, only to have them ebb away again. This album is a meditative joy.

Respighi Songs

Ian Bostridge, tenor; Saskia Giorgini, piano Pentatone PTC 5186 872 Ottorino Respighi is a composer known for being something of a polymath, speaking eleven languages fluently. It’s therefore no surprise that this collection of songs features works in Italian, French and English. But what strikes the listener strongly hearing this recording is the subtle depth of colour and the restrained emotion contained in these selections from Respighi’s lifetime of composing art song. Tenor Ian Bostridge and pianist Saskia Giorgini bring true artistic chemistry to their choices, informed by their respective experiences of searching

for a means of artistic expression in the midst of the 2020 COVID lockdown. Opening in a world of sensual impressionistic colours, right through to the concluding set of Italian and Scottish folksongs, this recording is authentic and generous. From one lyrical treasure to the next, the artists lead the listener on a journey into the world of the imagination.

A beautiful CD, featuring a fine artistic partnership in a shared expression of passionate engagement with the artistry of Respighi.

The Ballad Collection Gregg Arthur Self Released

No music does heartbreak and loneliness like jazz, and Gregg Arthur’s tenth album The Ballad Collection tugs at your heartstrings with each tender tune.

Sydney-based crooner and one of Australia’s finest jazz vocalists, Gregg Arthur is joined by a jazz orchestra complete with strings, adding a vast lushness to his rich baritone. The album includes several well-loved standards, but it is Arthur’s interpretation of Would You Believe that renders me utterly devastated, evoking that unique feeling of fatalism that sets in with your sixth, eighth or tenth whisky. Reprieve is

22

found in The Way You Look Tonight, a well needed breath of fresh air amidst the palpable heartache of the album.

Four Gregg Arthur originals also make their debut. The highlight of these, When I Think of You, closes out the album, transporting you to some dimly lit, noname bar as late-night blurs into early morning. Listening to this album in its intended order is essential. Without the delicate balance of the lighter tunes between the more melancholic tracks, you risk being completely shattered by the emotions Arthur evokes.

The River Tethys Ben Wilcock Thick Records

Vagabond

Tom Botting Quintet Self Released

New Zealand pianist and composer, Ben Wilcock, has released a sci-fiinspired album launched recently at the Wellington Jazz Festival and inspired by a series of books, The Hyperion Cantos,

by Dan Simmons. With Wilcock on piano, John Rae on drums, and Dan Yeabsley on bass, as well as Tristan Carter‘s emotive violin on several tracks, the music leads us through various jazz-infused styles from fast bop to free improvisation to traditional melodies. Wilcock has enormous skill and fluid versatility at the piano as well as on composition thus making this session an exciting (even though at times a blistering) summit of equals. While Aenea has a few crazy moments, the trio doesn't quite dive toward the noisy end of the scale, and the group remains focused with some groove or catchy line to maintain a

little melody amid the chaos. On The Stinger, Wilcock takes a racing and splashy fast bop dive across the keys, hurtling along with Yeabsley’s alwayssupportive upright bass and Rae’s masterly drumming. Each track is based on the different unique worlds explored by the protagonists within the novel, but being unfamiliar with the source did not hinder my intense enjoyment of the whole suite. Throughout, there is highly creative intergalactic listening to be had here, which was particularly enjoyable on the vinyl I played. On the closing familiar standard Star Eyes, most fitting in science fiction terms, the fun-loving style of the track emphasises a joyful session, displaying that their mutual admiration and inspiration is even higher.

Recorded live in the Rogue and Vagabond Jazz Club in Wellington NZ in that golden period after first COVID lockdown, Vagabond pairs with the already released and equally evocative Rogue. But it took the pandemic and inherent lockdowns to refocus on significant performances.

Bassist Tom Botting is a New Zealander, but has found a place in Sydney’s jazz scene. He completed his PhD in jazz studies at the Sydney Conservatorium, but returned to avoid Sydney’s lockdown, then got locked-down in New Zealand, to return to Sydney’s lockdown. His quintet has some of Wellington’s most formidable musicians, improvisers, home brewers and bakers: Callum Allardice (guitar), Jake Baxendale (saxophone), Daniel Hayles (piano) and Hikurangi

Schaverien-Kaa (drums). The tunes of evoke images of Aotearoa New Zealand.

The first three tracks were inspired by a road-trip from the east coast of the South Island. Of these, Lewis Pass grows out of a striking bass solo. Searching for the Coast is a translation of the Te Reo Maori name for the Shotover River, and has the feel of such a river. It flows both physically and musically into The Remarkables | Kawarau, the mountain range overlooking Queenstown, a great final track. This is at once atmospheric and scenic, as it is deeply meaningful and imaginative jazz. Relaxing but intriguing.

Heartily recommended.

LISTENERS’ LETTERS

Yule Be Delighted

A Rare Treat

Dear Fine Music presenters, thank you so much for your wonderful programs throughout the year. I was delighted to hear the Australian Christmas carols on Julie's program this morning. I learnt all of these in primary school in to 1950s and still remember every word. Very best wishes to all for the Christmas season and 2022.

Please pass on my thanks to Chris Weatherall and John Buchanan for playing Yacht Club Swing by Fats Waller and Song Of India by the Case Loma Orchestra. In 70 plus years of listening to jazz programs I had never heard that version of Song of India. Followed it up and was able to buy it in a three CD set plus the Fats Waller radio program CDs, both from Presto Jazz.

– Anon

May your station continue to prosper.

Mellow Midnight

– Paul Carroll

Thank you Lloyd Capps for playing Round Midnight on the Jazz Beat! It's my favourite standard and the Wes Montgomery Quartet's version is probably my favourite.

The beautiful mellow tones that Wes is able to achieve are just amazing and Johnny's solo was great too.

Keep up the great work.

– Oscar

Decca 466 057-2 2:37 Flapper millionairess, Mary Lloyd, daughter of the ‘Hot Dog King of Chicago’, has a bet with her rich girlfriends as to who can buy the most expensive thing in Europe. Mary and a businessman friend arrive in Budapest, where she meets Crown Prince Sandor of Sylvaria, travelling incognito as an aide to King Pankraz XXVII. Love blooms, but remains unspoken: not only has Sandor agreed to a dynastic marriage with the penniless Princess Rosemarie of Morenia, but Mary can’t waltz and Sandor scorns her beloved Charleston.

When Mary sees impoverished Sylvaria, she decides to buy the palace and win the bet. King Pankraz is delighted: not only is Mary very rich, but rank is no obstacle to her marriage with Sandor. If her father is the ‘Hot Dog King of Chicago’, that makes her a Duchess. When Mary discovers the identity of the handsome ‘aide’, she writes to her father that the palace comes complete with prince.

Sandor sees Mary’s letter: if he is merely part of a package, he’ll marry the princess but she elopes with Mary’s rich businessman friend.

32

Mary confesses her love for Sandor who, she says, will now dance the Charleston with her.

He replies that the Charleston is passé, but he will be delighted to join her in a slow foxtrot.

As Venetian forces fight off the Spanish troops, two Venetian senators, Contareno and Capellio, agree to settle a long feud.

In exchange for the hand in marriage of Contareno’s daughter, Bianca, Capellio will give up his claim. The senators do not know that Bianca is in love with Falliero, the leader of the victorious Venetian troops. After meeting Bianca in secret, Falliero is forced to flee. Caught between Contareno’s guards and the Spanish Embassy, he chooses the embassy but when he is discovered, he is put on trial for conspiracy with the enemy. At the trial, he is judged by Capellio, Contareno and Loredano and despite a surprise witness in his defence, Bianca in disguise, the latter two sign the death warrant. However, Capellio, who has realised that Bianca is in love with Falliero and does not want to marry him, refuses to sign and the decision goes to the full Venetian Senate. The Senate finds in Falliero’s favour.

Capellio gives up his claim on Bianca and the lovers are united in happiness.

Libretto by W.S. Gilbert. First performed, London, 1881.

REGINALD BUNTHORNE: John Reed, bar PATIENCE: Mary Sansom, sop ARCHIBALD GROSVENOR: Kenneth Sandford, bar D’Oyly Carte Opera Company; New SO/ Isadore Godfrey.

Decca 425 193 2 1:53 The ‘lovesick maidens’ are all in love with the aesthetic poet, Bunthorne, but his heart is set on the simple milkmaid, Patience.

The maidens’ old sweethearts, the Dragoon Guards, appear ready to propose but discover their intendeds fawning over Bunthorne.

Bunthorne confesses to Patience that his aestheticism is a sham, and mocks the movement's pretensions. He reveals that he does not really like poetry but she tells him that she cannot love him. Patience is told that the one truly unselfish pursuit in the world is love, so she decides to fall in love at the earliest opportunity. Archibald Grosvenor, another aesthetic poet, arrives. They declare themselves in love but suddenly realise that, as he is a perfect being, it would be a selfish act for Patience to love him and therefore they must part.

Bunthorne decides to raffle himself off among his lady followers, the proceeds going to charity. As the raffle is about to be drawn, Patience proposes to unselfishly sacrifice herself by loving Bunthorne. A delighted Bunthorne accepts immediately and the maidens return to the Dragoons to whom they are engaged. All seems resolved until Grosvenor returns and the maidens, finding him poetic, aesthetic, and far more attractive than Bunthorne, become his followers.

When Patience confesses her affection for Grosvenor to Bunthorne, he is furious and confronts Grosvenor. Bunthorne threatens him with a dire curse unless he undertakes to become a perfectly ordinary young man.

Grosvenor, intimidated, but also pleased at the excuse to escape the celebrity caused by his ‘fatal beauty’, agrees to do so. However, when Grosvenor reappears as an ordinary man, the maidens follow him into ordinariness, becoming ‘matter-of-fact young girls’. Now that Grosvenor is no longer perfect, Patience decides that it will not be selfish of her to marry him. The maidens return to their old

sweethearts among the Dragoons. Bunthorne is left without a bride.
