NATIONAL \tUSIC DAY Sunday 28th June 1992 28 Jun e 1992 ha~ been designated 'National Music Day' by Arts Minister, Tim Renton \'!u ~ ic for Youth is planning to stage two major events to mark this ce lebration of British music路making, they are:

'lET \ IUSIC LIVE ' ORCHESTRA AND CHOIR 2,500 youn g m u "ici an~ and "i nge r" performing 'Let Music Live' by Howard Blake, at a maj or concert in London.

NATIONAL MUSIC DAY PARADE A marching band and drum corps parade through London, involving 7,500 young performers.

During these seventeenth Schools Prom concerts we shall delight in the corporate and individual artistry of our young musicians. We shall realise what school musicians are capable of, given the right conditions and leadership. We shall see how much music can give them and what they can give through music to the community. At the 1987 National Festival of Music for Youth, the then Secretary of State for Education, Kenneth Baker, announced that music would be a part of the new national curriculum. In September 1992, music, for ages 4 to 14 years, is a statutory requirement. For all of us in music education this is an exciting and welcome development. Unfortunately our fears for the future of youth music in Britain have not abated. The dual effects of community charge capping and local management of schools are making serious inroads into the' extended curriculum' . the network of local authority music provision that produces our internationally famous orchestras and choirs. There is an urgent need for greater investment in training and recreational activities for the young. Shaw pointed out almost a century ago, 'even a Philistine will admit the absence of high class recreation means a resort to low class recreation' . Organisations such as the United Kingdom Council for Music Education, the Schools Music Association and the Music Advisers National Association are urging decision makers to find the vital compromise which will allow for continued direct support for corporate music making by local authorities.

Music for Youth will continue its campaign to 'Keep Music Alive in Our Schools' by focusing attention on the energising and healing role that music can play in the lives of young people. We urge you to join with us, our sponsors and friends, in strengthening support for the teachers, school governors and enlightened local authorities who have made Britain 's young musicians the e rl' y of the world.

TH, RH" "- AND DISTRIBUTION GROUP


Schools Prom Personalities Bob Holness, Presenter. As the dreaded doodle-bugs rained down on London's suburbs one night towards the close of the Second World War, a young boy lying huddled beneath his blankets secretly listening to a small crackling radio set could have had no idea that his addiction to radio would one day lead to an acclaimed career in broadcasting. The boy's name was Robert Holness and his career over the last thirty-six years has spanned virtually every aspect of broadcasting in both radio and television . His sheer love and enthusiasm for his work have ensured not only his dual success on both the small screen and the airwaves, but also enduring popularity with old and young alike. Thirty years after making his television debut as host of Granada Television's early game show 'Take a Letter', he is known 10 an average audience of some twelve miJIion viewers as host of Central Television's runaway success, 'Blockbusters', the first quiz show in Britain to air on a daily basis. Bob's special rapport with his eager young competitors and the conSistently cliff-hanging, intelligent nature of the show won 'Blockbusters' the TV Times Readers' Favourite Game Show Award twice and four British Academy Award nominations for Best Children's Programmes. Now into its ninth series, 'Blockbusters' is also regularly voted the 'Best Game Show' by the readers of Britain's national newspapers. Bob Holness has achieved a great deal in his thirty-six year career in radio and television, but he admits to a certain nagging regret. "I would dearly love to have played either the flute or the trombone, my tWo favourite instruinents, and then I could make my own music. Still, there is plenty of time ...! may yet get that done too ... "

Antony Hopkins CBE, Guest Conductor and Presenter. Has been associated with the Schools Prom from the first and has conducted the finale at every one. He has lectured and conducted in many countries and his 'Talking About Music' programme on Radio 4 is now in its thirty-sixth year. He has now owned 56 cars including a light-weight racing Etype Jaguar which would go from 0-100 m.p.h. in 11.5 seconds! The current owner is Japanese and he paid a million pounds for it - sadly not to Antony. In recent years he has become a fanatical golfer and has now played 268 golf courses, as far west as Minneapolis, as far east as Hong Kong and as far south as Adelaide. Scotland remains the northernmost limit, but if he can only get a concert-date in Iceland, perhaps ... Richard Stilgoe, Presenter. Has a wife, an ex-wife, five children, a dog and a concrete mixer. From this you will gather that he is passionate and creative but essentially down to earth. He was born in Camberley and brought up in Liverpool, where he sang 'I Know That My Redeemer Liveth' at St Agnes' Church and 'Rip It Up' at the Cavern. In trying to write a song as good as either of these, he has now written several hundred and played the results on radio's 'Today', 'Stilgoe's Around' and the award-winning 'Hamburger Weekend' and 'Used Notes'; on television's 'Nationwide', 'That's Life', his own series and everyone else's and on stages all over the world. His oneman show has been seen at festivals from Edinburgh to Adelaide. Clients for his bespoke cabaret act include IBM in Rhodes, Butlins in Toronto and H.M. The Queen in Windsor Castle. His twoman show with Peter Skellern ran happily in London's West End and has been seen in Monte Carlo and Madrid.

For Andrew Lloyd Webber he wrote the words for the opening song of 'Cats', all of the words in 'Starlight Express' and every other word in 'Phantom of the Opera'. This has paid for the concrete mixer and enabled him to found the Orpheus Trust, which helps disabled children play and enjoy music. Much of his work is now with children. He is director of the National Youth Music Theatre, for whom he wrote the words and music of 'Bodywork', a musical that takes place inside the human body. This had its premiere at the 1987 Edinburgh Festival and has now been recorded, with Peter Howitt as the Soul, Chas 'n' Dave as the Hair and Lonnie Donegan as the Appendix. He still occasionally sings 'Rip It Up', but now finds 'I Know That My Redeemer Liveth' a bit high. Larry Westland CBE, Founder and Executive Director of Music for Youth. Has directed and produced the Schools Prom since its inception in 1975. He is well-known and respected for his work in youth music, primarily as Director of the National Festival of Music for Youth, which he co-founded in 1970. The National Festival is now the largest event of its kind in Europe and involves over 22,000 young musicians each year. He was awarded a CBE in recognition of his work in youth music. He is involved in many other spheres of acti\'ity for young people, having co-founded the National Choral Competition in 1987, the Barclays Awards, also in 1987 and the British Youth Band Championships in 1978. He was recently im'ited by the Arts Minister, Tim Renlon MP, to serve on the National Music Day Steering Committee. (see page 5).

Programme Notes AFRICAN HARP LUTE DUO, LONDON Manager: G Chester Age range of perfonners: 7-18 years Traditional, Retracing Steps (AlIa La Ke) arr. Tunde Jegede Crescent Maya Jobarteh The music of the African Harp is hereditary, passed down through generations from father to son. It is played exclusively in five principal families of the Manding people in The Gambia, Senegal, Guinea and Mali. The makers of this instrument, although never players, always come from within the family circle. Seven-year-old Maya Jobarteh is the first female in her family to play the instrument in a hitherto male-orientated tradition, and she is the youngest perfonner in this country. Maya will be accompanied by Tunde Jegede, whose own ensemble is currently on their 1991 Arts Council National Tour. Retracing Steps (AlIa La Ke) Traditional, arr. Tunde Jegede This is an arrangement by Tunde Jegede of a piece from the classical repertoire. Crescent Maya Jobarteh This piece was composed by the seven-yearold performer, Maya Jobarteh.

COUNTY OF AVON SCHOOLS' ORCHESTRA Conductor: Peter Stark Age range of performers: 13-19 years Malcolm Arnold Symphony No. 5, Op. 74: Con fuoco, Risoluto Pomp & Circumstance March No. 1: Edward EIgar 'Land of Hope and Glory' The County of Avon Schools' Orchestra was formed in 1974 to bring together the best young instrumentalists to play at a high level of perfonnance. Like the County Wind Band, members meet for intensive rehearsals during school holiday periods and most play regularly in one of the twelve Music Centres which meet weekly throughout the school year. The Orchestra has been an excellent ambassador for the County of Avon in its tours abroad, having visited Bennuda, South East Asia, Europe, the Gulf States and Sultanate of Oman and in 1989 New Mexico State in the USA. Their concert in Santa Fe Symphony Hall fonned part of a Festival of British Music sponsored by the Santa Fe Symphony Orchestra. The following quote from a local paper was typical of the many reviews received: ' ...They have organised music in their schools to produce such a

group as this, and the result is that their citizens reap the advantages of education, world fame as a tourist attraction, and simple self-respect for their achievements.' Malcolm Arnold Symphony No. 5, Op. 74: Con fuoco, Risoluto Ma1colm Arnold's 5th symphony was commissioned for the 1961 Cheltenham Festival. He wrote of it, 'Without wishing to sound morbid, the work is filled with memories of friends who all died young; Jack Thurston (clarinettist), Dennis Brain (horn player), David Paltenghi (choreographer) and Gerard Hoffnung (humorist).' He also said that, 'in times of great emotion we speak in cliche s.' The scherzo is deliberately dislocative, with repetitions getting' stuck' and being subjected to extraordinary interjections. It embraces a humorously heavy fugue (Hoffnung?) and, in its central trio section, a jaunty passage that could have stepped out of one of Arnold's many film scores. The finale is made from what might be described as almost commonplace materials - striving trumpet calls, a fife and drum march and an impassioned string tune - but they are treated in alienatory fashion to create a drama of mounting fury. The anger is dissipated by the recall of the slow movement's glorious and comforting melody, eventually taken over by the trumpet. Yet the last chord we hear is a minor one, coloured by a funeral bell. Pomp & Circumstance Edward EIgar March No. 1: 'Land of Hope and Glory' The Pomp and Circumstance Marches are a series of five military marches in symphonic form. The first march is now best known because of its link with the words 'Land of Hope and Glory'. This link came about when Elgar used both the words and music in his Coronation Ode to commemorate the Coronation of Edward VII. A hybrid it may be, but it never fails to stir the patriotic fervour associated with it.

Programme Notes AVON SCHOOLS' SYMPHONIC WIND BAND Conductor: Phillip Scott Age range of performers: 14-20 years Fanfare and National Anthem arr. Andrew Tyrrell Master Humphrey's Clock Malcolm Binney Four Character Studies: Fagin's Ball, Nancy's Lament, Sairey, Bozmania The Avon Schools' Symphonic Wind Band was formed in 1975 to bring together the large number of young and highly talented woodwind and brass players in the County of Avon. Members meet for intensive rehearsals during school holiday periods and most play regularly in one of the twelve Music Centres which meet weekly throughout the school year. The band performs a large repertoire of symphonic wind music and has broadcast on radio and television, including a programme for the BBC in their series, 'Youth Orchestras of the World'. During the Easter holidays this year the band toured the United States of America - the first visit the band has made to the 'home' of wind bands. Concerts were given in Washington, Disneyworld and Atlanta.

Master Humphrey's Clock Malcolm Binney Four Character Studies: Fagin's Ball, Nancy's Lament, Sairey, Bozmania 'Master Humphrey's Clock' was a weekly periodical produced by Charles Dickens who, writing under the pseudonym 'Bos', published this miscellany of articles and short sketches. Ma1colm Binney's suite for wind band was commissioned by the Kent Youth Wind Orchestra and premiered by them in 1988 in the Queen Elizabeth Hall, London. As Dickens lived much of his life in the county of Kent, it seemed appropriate that Ma1colm Binney should draw for inspiration on names invented by one of the county's most famous inhabitants. The band will play the last part of 'Master Humphrey's Clock', Four Character Studies. 'Fagin's Ball', 'Nancy's Lament' and 'Sairey' culminate in 'Bozmania', a blaze of colour, noise and merriment. In this closing movement earlier material combines in an exhilarating fugal finale. Avon Schools' Symphonic Wind Band were proud to give the first performance in the United States of this fine, original work for wind band.

arr. Rob McConlleil The Aylesbury Music Centre Dance Band (average age 17) is formed from the finest young jazz musicians in the Vale of Aylesbury, the county town of Buckinghamshire. In recent years the band has enjoyed a very exciting and demanding schedule. Following their performance at the 1990 Schools Prom they were invited to play on BBC TV's 'Blue Peter' and were featured on Radio France. More recently they produced a video with Benny Green. Last year their busy concert schedule included appearing with Maynard Ferguson in a concert for the Birmingham International Jazz Festival, recording for BBC local radio and recording their second album, 'Contraband'. In 1990 and 1991 they were awarded the Outstanding Performance Award at the National Festival of Music for Youth and in the same years were runnersup in the BBC Radio 2 Big Band Competition Youth Section. In 1989 they won the title 'Daily Telegraph Young Jazz Band of the Year'. They shared the stage of the London Palladium with John Dankworth, Cleo Laine, Don Lusher, George Chisholm and Mark Nightingale in the Gala Concert of the Soho Jazz Festival. They also featured on Sky TV, played at the BASBWE Conference and the Jazz in Education Festival at the Royal Northern College of Music. In tonight's concert the band are playing two very demanding works. Both are arrangements by the Canadian trombonist Rob McConnell and were originally written for his Grammy-award winning band, 'Boss Brass'.

There were two main factors in this' special needs' band's formation . Firstly, the need to continue creative musical experiences in the lives of mentally handicapped people once they had left school. Secondly, a vision that came to tutor i\rfon \\'yn whilst listening to Gwynedd Youth Band, of people with special educational needs performing interesting and inspirational creati\'e music (partly comp05ed by the players themseh'es) in an integrated setting. There are always two or three musicians in this band who are pupils from ordinary schools in the same locality as Ysgol Hafod Lon (special school), where this band is based.

Peter Hughes Mack is a talented amateur musician and ex-parent of boys at Beechwood Park. He has arranged a great deal of music for the choir and his effective setting of 'Toot Toot Tootsie Goodbye' served the choir admirably well at the National Choral Competition. This arrangement, written for the choir in 1979, is typical of his relaxed and easy-to-listen-to style.

Programme Notes BISHOP THOMAS GRANT MARIMBA ENSEMBLE, LONDON Conductor: Andy Leask Soloists: Kirstie Bell, Karen Fonseca Age range of performers: 11-14 years Galloping Comedians Dmitry Kabalevsky, arr. Ruth Jeanne Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring J 5 Bach, arr. Mario Gaetano Ragtime Robin George H Green, arr. Bob Becker Members of the marimba ensemble are all girls from Bishop Thomas Grant R C School, Streatham, London. The ensemble was formed earlv in 1990 and on 3 December of that year they 'were awarded first prize in the Ensemble 1a5 at the Kingston-uponThames Festival ofPerfomling Arts. On 1 July] 991, they received the Outstanding Performance Award in the National Festival of Music for Youth held at the Royal Festival Hall. Since 1982 Andy Leask, their percussion teacher, has formed several successful percussion ensembles, giving performances in all the major concert halls on the South Bank and being invited to take part in the 1985 Schools Prom. In 1988 and 1989 they were privileged to perform for H R H The Princess Royal on three occasions. Andy Leask is also head of percussion at the Centre for Young MUSicians, Pimlico, London. The school is most grateful to J Sainsbury plc, Streatham, for their support and sponsorship.

Dmitry Kabalevsky, arr. Ruth Jeanne This arrangement uses four players, playing three marimbas. It is a fast-moving piece, with players 1 and 2 playing in unison throughout most of the arrangement. Controlled use of dynamics at this lively tempo ensures it to be an everlasting crowdpleaser. J 5 Bach, Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring arr. Mario Gaetano One of J S Bach's most beautiful melodies, skilfully arranged for three marimbas, cello (substituting for bass marimba), glockenspiel, vibraphone and tubular bells. The musical demands of dynamiC control, rhythmic accuracy and 100% concentration at a slow tempo make this a challenging arrangement for the young ensemble. Ragtime Robin George H Green, arr. Bob Becker George Hamilton Green was born in Omaha, Nebraska, on 23 May 1893. At 21 years of age, he was proclaimed 'the greatest xylophone player in the world' . He made hundreds of recordings and his repertoire included over 300 classical transcriptions, all memorised, as well as popular and ragtime melodies. He wrote his own arrangements and was skilled at improvisation. This arrangement of 'Ragtime Robin' is for solo xylophone accompanied by four marimbas. Galloping Comedians

CHELMSFORD COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL PIANO TRIO, ESSEX Tutor: Patricia Beckett Age range of performers: 17 years Fe/ix Mendelssohn Trio in D minor: Malta allegro ed agitato Chelmsford County High School has been a regular supporter of the National Festival of Music for Youth and over the years has been fortunate to have had a septet and string orchestra perform at the Schools Prom. In 1989, Karen, Gill and Anita, members of the same form at school, formed a piano trio, performing successfully in local music festivals and for local music clubs. In 1990 they entered the Chamber Music for Schools Competition and were privileged to play at the finals concert at St John's, Smith Square. Since February of this year, due to injury to Gill's hand, rehearsals and performances have been restricted, so to receive an Outstanding Performance Award at this year's National Festival was the very best medicine and it took many days for the reality to sink in. Trio in D minor: Felix Mendelssohn Malta allegro ed agitato Composed in 1839, the 0 minor trio has enjoyed tremendous popularity, with beautiful melodies and technical fireworks, particularly for the pianist.

Programme Notes SHEIDA DA VIS AND EMMA RIVLIN, LONDON

DOWN LANE JUNIOR SCHOOL, HARINGEY

EGGLESCLIFFE SCHOOL ORCHESTRA, CLEVELAND

Tutors: David Strange, loyee Rathbone Age range of performers: 13-14 years lohalJlJes Brahms Sonata in E minor, Op. 38: Allegro non troppo Sheida Davis, 13 (cello) and Emma Rivlin, 14 (piano) were in the same class at their primary school, St Christopher's in Hampstead, but now Sheida goes to the City of London School and Emma attends North London Collegiate School. Between them they have won many awards for their playing, and this year as a duo they have been given Outstanding Performance Awards in two national competitions. Sheida started to play the cello at the age of four. Her teacher is Da\'id Strange. She comes from a \\ ell-kno\\ n musical famih : her father is the conductor Sir Colin Da\:is and her elder brothers haw alread~ performed at the Schools Proms.

Musical Directors: Miehelle Oddy/

Conductor: Keith Hewsol1 Age range of performers: 11-18 years Maleolm Arnold Little Suite No. 2

Emma has been playing the piano since she was five. Her teacher is Joyce Rathbone. She also comes from a musical family. Her grandmother is the violin teacher and author, Eta Cohen and her mother is concert violinist, Maureen Smith. Sonata in E minor, Op. 38: lohannes Brahms Allegro non troppo The sonata was written between 1862 and 1865 and is a lyrical, romantic work in which the piano and cello have equal parts. It has a particularly dark, elegiac character, which shows off the expressive and dramatic qualities of both instruments.

Linda Phillips Soloist: Stella Weinor Age range of performers: 7-11 years The Secret Diary of Connie Kominsky There are over 100 children taking part in this performance. The group is open to all- it reflects the wealth of cultures within the school (there were 30 languages spoken here at the last count). Many of the children taking part are in the very early stages of learning English, but they pick up the songs and dances very quickly. This type of activity is good for integrating all children and for building confidence. The children have worked wry hard and are delighted with their progre,;,; ,0 fa r. They are' ambassadors' for Haringey and clearly show all the bright and positiw aspects of life in the Borough. The Secret Diary . of Connie KominskvThe piece illustrates life as a teenager in the 1950s. It was devised by Linda Phillips (class teacher) and Michelle Oddy (head teacher), who created the movements and dances as well as linking the songs. 'Connie' begins by telling us about her poor school report - 'What a wonderful world it would be'. Then she describes the end of term and the anguish of parting from her boyfriend - 'Breaking up is hard to do', 'Sealed with a kiss', 'It might as well rain until September'. However, Connie's birthday is looming and she hopes to see her boyfriend at the party - 'It's my party'. Things don't turn out quite as expected and Connie is left with an unrequited love - 'I only want to be with you' . The children dress in '50s costumes, and hand-jive, boogie and rock 'n' roll their way through the songs, which are all old favourites and are guaranteed to have you singing along and tapping your feet.

Egglescliffe School is an 11-18 comprehensive in the county of Cleveland. Over 1000 pupils attend the school and because music plays an important part in the life of the school, many of the pupils play musical instruments. The main activities are the brass band, choir and orchestra and each group rehearses at least once each day of the school week. The three groups have all taken part in the National Festival of Music for Youth in consecutive years since 1988, the most successful year being 1990, when all the school's groups were invited to perform. The school orchestra was formed in 1981, numbering 17 musicians. It has grown from strength to strength, now boasting a membership of 60 musicians. Little Suite No. 2 Malcolm Arnold The work was commissioned by Alan Fluck in 1963 for the Farnham Festivals and Arnold composed it with a youth orchestra in mind. It is a fascinating piece for a school orchestra to perform, as it offers interesting and challenging passages for the whole orchestra. It features skilfully written parts, espeCially for the brass section. The three movements show clear changes of mood and style, the last movement being almost in a jazz style. This begins with an exciting percussion introduction which then sets the mood for the other sections of the orchestra. The ending is fast and furious. Malcolm Arnold celebrates his 70th birthday this year and this event has created new interest in his works, especially his symphonies.

Antolly le Fleming Symphony No. 8 in B minor Franz Schubert (Unfinished): Allegro moderato This is one of four orchestras containing pupils from these two neighbouring schools. As there are also several bands and choirs, time for rehearsal is limited to one lunch time a week, though there are extra practices for special occasions. The schools have recently been involved in several competitions, including Sainsbury's Choir of the Year Competition. Chamber groups from the two schools have played in the finals concerts of the Chamber Music Competition for Schools at St John's, Smith Square in each of the last four years. Earlier this year the orchestra was taught by members of the Bournemouth Sinfonietta during a three day residency of the orchestra at Exeter School, which culminated in a performance of Haydn's 'Creation' in Exeter Cathedral.

Fe/sen Fe/sen

Telford band Felsen was formed in March 1988 and rehearse regularly at Real To Reel Studios, where they have made all their recordings. They were overwhelmed to receive the Outstanding Performance Award in the New Music category at the National Festival of Music for Youth, as it is the first time in the Festival's 20 year history that a rock band has received this prestigious award. Recently they have appeared on BBC TV and performed live on local radio and at numerous venues throughout the country. Felsen play mostly their own material and tonight they are performing two of their numbers. Hold on to Your Love

Fc/seIl

The inspiration for this original Felsen song came from the breakdown of a relationship. Keep Your Cool

Felsell

This is a faster number, inspired by arguments within the group itself, proving that bad times can be used to good advantage. During this number audience participation will be encouraged!

The Youth Brass Band is, at present, the topmost group in the Gawthorpe Brass '85 organisation, although a senior band is to be formed in 1992. Members progress from a Mother and Toddlers' Music Club to the Music Funshop for under Ss, the Music Workshop for 5 to 7 year olds, the Brass Beginners' class, the Learner Group, the Junior (or Training) Band and the Youth Band. 1991 has been the most successful year to date, with the Youth Band winning first prize in two local music festivals, gaining third place in the Yorkshire Area Finals of the National Brass Band Championships and performing, as did the Music Funshop and Workshop groups, in the National Festival of Music for Youth. The Youth Band received the Vincent Bach Award for an Outstanding Performance.

All the children in the ensemble are past or present pupils of Grangetown Primary School, which is situated in an inner urban area of Cleveland, close to the North East coast. The group meets at lunchtime and after school to practise and is financially selfsupporting. The children of Grangetown have been regular visitors to Music for Youth events since 1983 and have been presented with an award on each occasion. The present ensemble consists of some very experienced players, who have performed their music in Australia and Finland. The youngest, however, are experiencing the nervous excitement of their first Prom. Tonight's programme consists of five Elizabethan tunes announced and played in the inimitable Grangetown style. The children are then looking forward exactly one month with their favourite tune - 'Jingle Bells'.

All Gawthorpe's pieces have a 1920s feel to them. 'Muskrat Ramble' opens the programme with a brisk march. This is followed by 'Sugar Blues', featuring a trumpet solo which was much frowned upon when the piece was first written. The sound produced by using a wah-wah mute was very different to the pure jazz noise favoured at the time.

arr. Paul fennings Theme from The Muppets fim Henson/ Sam Pottle, arr. Frank Cofield The Wind Band is one of several ensembles that meet each week out of school hours. These include four bands, four choirs and three orchestras. The Music Department is situated a quarter of a mile from the main school buildings in a converted farm house which was built in 1586 and renovated during the past ten years or so. In addition to the large ensembles there are several chamber groups. The Band is still quite young and with only two players leaving this year, development should be maintained in the future. Apart from a school concert each term, the Band takes part in regional and national music festivals and makes an important contribution to the community by playing charity concerts and visiting Homes for the Elderly at Christmas. Tonight's concert is the Band's first appearance at the Schools Prom and, indeed, the Royal Albert Hall. Concert Prelude Philip Sparke This work has become standard repertoire and is very enjoyable to perform. With its complex rhythmic patterns, the middle section is quite challenging. The work begins and ends with a fanfare. Anything Goes

KALlNKA, MANCHESTER Musical Director: Brian Hulme Age range of performers: 12-19 years Faun Waltz V V Andreyev Gusachok Russian traditional The Kalinka ensemble was founded some seven years ago and is formed from students at Manchester schools and colleges who are learning Russian folk dance, or who have lessons on Russian traditional instruments. They have a varied repertoire of song, dance and instrumental pieces which feature all the main Russian folk instruments: fretted instruments like the balalaika and domra, wind instruments like the zhaleika(traditionally played by shepherds),dulcimers (the ancient gusli used by the old Russian minstrels), various traditional percussion instruments (such as spoons) and the Russian accordion.

LONDON FUSION ORCHESTRA Director: [an Carr Age range of performers: 14-21 years The Fullness Tim Vine The Blue Meeny David Mial1 The London Fusion Orchestra has been brought together from Weekend Arts College's Advanced Jazz Music class. This class has enabled these young musicians to experience in a practical way the roots of music - the blues in all shapes and forms, standard tunes as vehicles for improvisation and the compositions of key musicians such as Duke Elhngton and Miles Davis. Where possible, students are encouraged to compose their own pieces and structures for improvisation. They are trained and directed by lan Carr, one of Europe's leading jazz musicians and composers. Tim Ville The Fullness

Kalinka benefits from the close ties forged with Russian colleagues and students in St Petersburg (Manchester's twin city), who regularly visit to teach and perform. Faun Waltz V V Andreyev

This funky and intense piece was written by a member of LFO, Tim Vine. It is unusual in that the rhythm section plays four beats to the bar against the horn section's three beats, resolving together at the end.

V V Andreyev is known as the founder of the modern balalaika orchestra . He also standardized the sizes of the various instruments and improved their construction, quality and tuning. 'Faun Waltz' features all the instruments in the ensemble. Gusachok Russian traditional

The Blue Meeny

David Miall

This is a longer and more structured piece, written by another LFO member, David Mian. The piece passes through a variety of key signatures, but its style is always light and easy.

The title of this piece translates as 'The Goose Dance'. The dance is from the Smolensk region of Western Russia and traditionally, the boys are the geese and the girls the gooseherds. The dance depicts the efforts of the goooseherds to round the geese up! The piece features the zhaleika, a wind instrument made from a cow's horn.

Written in the thirties show style. thi5 arrangement by Paul JenningS is featured in the opening scene from 'Indiana Jone~ and the Temple of Doom'. Theme from The Muppets

Programme Notes THE LUKACS TRIO, WOKING Tutor: ZoItan Lukacs Age range of performers: 16-18 years Cinq Pieces en Trio: Jacques Ibert Allegro vivo, Andantino, Allegro assai, Allegro quasi marziale The Woking Sinfonietta trio was entered for the National Festival by its coach, Mr Zoltan Lukacs. Sadly, Mr Lukacs died very suddenly, before the results of the regional round were known. The trio went on to receive an Outstanding Performance Award in the Chamber Music class and in recognition of the dedicated work of its coach, decided to continue to play together as a wind trio under his name. Mr Lukacs had worked tirelessly for several years on behalf of the young musicians of Surrey. His enthusiasm for 20th century music enabled his groups to attempt the most ambitious and challenging repertoire and, as a professional player himself, he was able to develop in them high standards of performance. All three members of the Lukacs trio play in the Surrey County Youth Orchestra and in the Guildford Sinfonia. Jackie is in the sixth form at Guildford High School for Girls and Alex and lain are at the Royal Grammar School, Guildford.

Jacques Ibert Cinq Pieces en Trio: Allegro vivo, Andantino, Allegro assai, Allegro quasi marziale Ibert's Cinq Pieces are typical of the excellent woodwind writing of French composers of his time: sophisticated, witty, rhythmic, colourful and always exceedingly wellwritten for each instrument. The trio will play four of the five contrasting pieces which make up the set.

NORTHAMPTONSHIRE COUNTY -;. YOUTH ORCHESTRA ~ Conductor: Malcolm Tyler Age range of performers: 13-19 years The Sorcerer's Apprentice Paul Dukas Pomp & Circumstance Edward EIgar March No. 1: 'Land of Hope and Glory' The orchestra was formed in 1974. It rehearses each Saturday morning during school term time and some of its members travel 30 miles to each rehearsal. Membership of the orchestra comes only after a strict audition. Each year the orchestra gives a number of concerts in Northampton and also works with a large choir, which gives it experience in major choral works. Concert tours are regularly arranged - the orchestra has been to Germany, Italy, Spain, France, Czechoslovakia and hopes to go to Canada next. It has won awards at an International Youth Music Festival in Vienna and Belgium.

Pomp & Circumstance March No. 1: 'Land of Hope and Glory'

Edward EIgar

The Pomp and Circumstance marches form a series of five military marches for orchestra, four of which date from between 1901 and 1907 and the last from 1930. The celebrated patriotic words of A C Benson were added later to the first march in D major for a special Gala performance given to commemorate the Coronation of King Edward VII.

The Sorcerer's Apprentice Paul Dukas Xo one who has seen the wonderful Disney film, 'Fantasia', can fail to be familiar with the story of the Sorcerer's Apprentice, which tells of the magician who leaves his home having instructed his apprentice to clean the place up. Using a spell the lad tells the broom to fetch water and clean the house. However, he doesn't know the magic word for 'stop'! Only the return of the Sorcerer prevents a total deluge and the broom whimpers back into the corner. The last phrase of the music indicates a well-deserved kick in the pants for the apprentice! The story is actually a very ancient one, coming originally from a Greek author around AD 120 and passing on to us through the German poet, Goethe.

Programme Notes OXFORDSHIRE COUNTY YOUTH ORCHESTRA Conductor: Richard Hallam Orchestral Manager: Stephen lanes Age range of performers: 14-21 years Antony Hopkins Early One Morning Let Music Live Howard Blake The Oxfordshire County Youth Orchestra is the senior of three youth orchestras run by the Oxfordshire County Council Music Service. Founded in 1968, the orchestra draws students up to the age of 21 from all over Oxfordshire, although the majority of players are still at school. Since 1988, the orchestra has met each year for a three-day non-residential course during the Christmas holiday, a four-day residential course (out of Oxfordshire) during the Easter holiday and a summer concert tour. The orchestra has been on successful tours in Austria, France and the Channel Islands and this year visited Germany, where it performed three concerts. The final concert was an open air performance in Bonn Market Square, where they played to over 1000 people as part of the Bonn Festival. The orchestra has performed three times at the Royal Festival Hall and tonight is its fourth appearance at the Schools Prom. Early One Morning Antony Hopkins 'Early One Morning' i a cantata for mezzosoprano solo, male speaker, female chorus and orchestra. It tells the thoughts .of a woman lying awake early in the morning she recalls her schooldays, her first love, marriage and the birth of her child. The excerpt to be performed tonight is called 'School' and describes the woman's school companions and teachers, assembly, lessons and playtime. Let Music Live Howard Blake 'Let Music Live' was written especially for the 21st National Festival of Music for Youth by Roward Blake. The first performance was given on 6 July, Keep Music Alive In Our Schools Day, by an orchestra and choir of 1500 young musicians, conducted by Simon Rattle.

THE OXFORDSHIRE YOUTH CHAMBER CHOIR Conductors: Anna Haxworth, Peter Hunt Age range of performers: 15-20 years Lothar Voigtlander Vivamus mea Lesbia Early One Morning Antony Hapkins Let Music Live Howard Blake The Oxfordshire Youth Chamber Choir was formed in 1986 as a response to the lack of a high quality county-based choir, doing for voices what tlle county orchestras do for instrumentalists. Entry is by teacher recommendation and over the years the choir has always drawn from sixteen or so Oxfordshire schools, in both sectors. Within a year of forming, it was fortunate to gain a highly commended place in the first Department of Education and Science Choral Competition at the Royal Festival Hall in LondoD, which then earned it a place in the 1987 Schools Prom at the Royal Albert Hall. Since then it has continued to impress li teners with its youthful sound and ambitious programmes containing contemporary works, which have featured in many concerts and on radio. The sopranos and altos have also recorded a professional tape to accompany a mu ic publication. In 1988 the choir visited ilie Europa Cantat festival in Hungary, representing the U.K., and visited a maller fe tival in Portugal in 1989. Earlier this year the choir successfully raised ÂŁ10,000 to attend another Europa Cantat festival in Spain this summer. With a generous Carnegie award, the cho.ir will be establishing a deVelopment programme for 1992.

Lothar Voigtlander Vivamus mea Lesbia A resident of East Berlin, Voigtlander is now a freelance composer and conductof, having studied composition at the Leipzig Conservatory. He has been a member of, and has conducted, several choirs throughout Germany. 'Vivamus mea Lesbia', written in 1975, is a challenging setting of words by Catullus, which in essence are an appeal to Lesbia to enjoy life, and love whilst there is time - free from care. It divides into several sections: Vivamus mea Lesbia .....Let us live, Lesbia Nobis cum semel occidit brevis lux ..... Sunlight is with us for a short time Da mi basia mille (spoken) ..... Give me a thousand kisses The composer sent this piece to the choir after its success in the Department of Education and Science Choral Competition with an earlier work, 'The Neighbour's Garden'.

Programme Notes THE PENROSE STRING ORCHESTRA, NEWBURY, BERKSHIRE Conductor: Johll Parsolls Age range of performers: 12-19 years Holberg Suite: Edvard Grieg Air and Prelude The Penrose String Orchestra was formed by John Parsons under the auspices of the West Berkshire Music Centre in 1986. It aims to fulfil the need of promising young string players in the area to perform works from the string repertoire to a high standard. Since its formation, the orchestra has given an increasing number of performances in the area, playing regularly in the Newbury Summer FestivaL In 1989 the orchestra was highly commended for its performance in the National Festival of Music for Youth. Holberg Suite: Edmrd Crieg Air and Prelude Grieg's masterpiece, the Holberg Suite, displays a unique combination of baroque musical rhetoric and his own individual musical language. The haunting and melodic air forms the heart of the work and has a beautiful middle section in the major key. The prelude is an exciting movement, rhythmic, flamboyant and memorable.

Robbins/Alle/1/Sheaje, arr. Paul Seversoll

The first public appearance of the Poole Grammar Stompers was at a school jazz concert in 1983. Since then, although membership of the band has changed almost annually, they have maintained an exuberant style of performing trad. jazz. Recent performances by the band have included venues as diverse as a gathering of the local judiciary, a Blue Flag ceremony on Sandbanks Promenade, a trade fair in Cherbourg and, eschewing political bias, local Conservative and Labour Clubs! At rehearsals they play standard jazz favourites, with each player trying his hand at improvised solos. Being a small ensemble, every player's contribution is vital, from the dependable bass tuba of Brett Challis to the 'chase those black notes' solos of pianist N eil Bottomley. Tonight they perform two classics framing the novelty number 'Livery Stable Blues'.

Pan Woman The Radcliffe Rollers are based at Radcliffe School, Wolverton. They were formed in March 1985 and gave their first performance six weeks later. It was a resounding success no one in Milton Keynes had ever heard a band quite like them! In spring 1986, the Rollers won their heat of BBC 1's 'Saturday Supers tore Search for a Superstar' Talent Contest, in which they were eventually placed third. Following this, they were invited to perform in the 1987 'Children in Need' AppeaL In the years since their inception, the Rollers have performed at The Royal Show, the National Steelband Festival, the National Festival of Music for Youth and numerous other events. The standard achieved still remains at a consistently high level, due in no small way to the talents of its teacher, who is also responsible for the arrangements of their music, Richard Murphy. The band has been sponsored by Wolverton Motor Company Ltd since its inception. Romance and Party Lell 'Boogsie' Sharpe,

arr. Richard MlIrphy The vast majority of music played by steelbands consists of arrangements. However, this piece was written especially for 'pan' by one of Trinidad's leading composers and steelband exponents. Suite No. 2: Badinerie ] 5 Bach,

arr. Richard MlIrphy This arrangement displays the tremendous range of subtleties of which pan is capable. It also requires considerable technique from the tenor players. Pan Woman Ray Holmall This piece is a calypso, which originates from Trinidad . It is, in fact. intended to include words which praise the \'irtues of a woman who likes steelband or ' pan' as it is more correctl~ known. Calypsos are widely arran,::ed ior pan as they afford many L'ppurtumties for the arranger to develop meluJic. harmonic and rhythmic ideas from the anginal tune. This often leads to very e\acting technical demands being made on the performers. This piece is no exception!

The college draws students from a large area of the N E Yorkshire coast, from Whitby to Filey and has about 700 students. Music is important in the college - as well as the jazz orchestra there is a symphony orchestra, a choir and many smaller ensembles. Rock music also figures strongly and a number of former student rock musicians are now in successful bands. Several members of the band are now students at music colleges and universities. The jazz orchestra has appeared in three National Festival finals and won the Yorkshire TV area of The Daily Telegraph Jazz Competition twice. Punctuate Bob Lo,1'd,'/1 This is a punchy, funky number with solos for Adam Carpenter (guitar) and David Wright (trombone). Georgia on My Mind Hoagy Carmichael,

SITAR ENSEMBLE - RAG AUR TAL, BRENT Musical Director: Pun ita Cupta Tabla Tutor: Yosef Ali Khan Age range of performers: 13-17 years Kalawadi Rag Punita Cupta Sitar Ensemble - Rag Aur Tal consists of nine pupils who are learning Indian music in their schools in the London Borough of Brent. Eight of the pupils are 13-14 years old, while one is 17 years old. The London Borough of Brent is one of the few London Boroughs who have done something practical as far as multi-cultural education is concerned . The teaching of Indian music in Brent was introduced in September 1988 when Punita Gupta, disciple of sitar maestro Ravi Shankar, joined Brent Music Service as Development Officer for Indian Music and Dance. Indian music is now taught in 13 junior schools and 5 secondary schools in Brent. An evening is also run, where pupils are able to learn and practise Indian music and dance. Participants in this group have been learning Indian music for 2-3 years. Gurjit Singh, who plays tabla in the group, has been learning for :; years_They ha\ e taken part in a number of local music iesti vals. Kalawadi Rag

William Smith The choir was formed in 1979 by the newly appointed music adviser, Helena Braithwaite. It now boasts 120 members and is based in Cardiff, the Welsh capital. It is the senior of the three county choirs, giving choral training from 7 to 21 years of age. The choir broadcasts on television and radio, performing regularly with the BBC Welsh Orchestra, as well as The Halle and London symphony orchestras. They have premiered works by the major Welsh composers and their repertoire includes most of the famous choral works of the 19th and 20th centuries. Since 1981, the choir has visited Hungary, Malta, America, Canada, Russia and Israel. In 1988, they won the coveted first prize in the youth choral competition at the Llangollen International Eisteddfod and in July they received the Outstanding Performance Award in the National Choral Competition at the National Festival of Music for Youth. Cantemus Lajos Bardos Bardos was a pupil of Kodaly. He was concerned with the development of choral music both for young people and adults and wrote a large number of choral works for Hungarian choirs. 'Cantemus' is a vocal fanfare in praise of singing and is written in Latin. Cennin Aur Mansel Thomas The words are a Welsh translation of the poem, 'Fair Daffodils' by Robert Herrick. The daffodil is the emblem of Wales and in this beautiful setting the poet laments that the fair daffodil, like man, fades so quickly. Mansel Thomas was the Head of Music, BBC Wales.

an orchestra item was accorded a double encore'. Years later, Elgar referred to the 'Land of Hope and Glory' melody as a 'tune that comes once in a lifetime'.

Pomp & Circumstance March No. 1: 'Land of Hope and Glory'

THE SWORDS OF MODA LING, NORTHAMPTON

Edward Elgar

Stoneleigh Youth Orchestra is an independent youth orchestra and registered charity, which was founded in 1944 and administered solely by a committee of volunteers chosen from members' parents. It has developed into an orchestra of high musical achievement and under the musical direction of Adrian Brown, performs concerts to a professional standard at venues such as the Thorndike Theatre, Leatherhead, the Queen Elizabeth Hall and the Royal Festival Hall, London. It has toured in Edinburgh, York, Vichy, Salzburg and Sweden. The orchestra has won a number of awards, including the inaugural Novello Award for Youth Orchestras. This year, after an intensive drive to raise ÂŁ47,000 in 10 months, the orchestra was able to accept an invitation to go to the Soviet Union this August. The tour was extremely successful and enjoyable, with two wellreceived concerts in Leningrad. Next year the orchestra plans to visit Salzburg and Vienna, with a tour of North America in its sights which will, of course, demand heavy fundraising efforts again on the orchestra members. Symphony No. 5, Op. 47: Dmitri Shostakovich Allegro non troppo In 1936, Shostakovich's opera, 'Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk', was condemned as 'Chaos instead of music' for its dissonance and explic'itness, in a notorious Pravda editorial. This had far-reaching consequences for Shostakovich and for Soviet music. At the time, Shostakovich was working on his Fourth Symphony, but he soon realised that it was stylistically very similar to 'Lady Macbeth' - in the prevailing climate it was the wrong work at the wrong time. He withdrew it and produced instead his Fifth Symphony (1937), titled' a SO\'iet artist's reply to just criticism'. The symphony was written in a clearer, more direct and melodic manner - its sense of grandeur and nobility fitted more closely with the socialist ideals of the time. Pomp & Circumstance March No. 1: 'Land of Hope and Glory' This march, now firmly associated with the Last Night of the Proms, was compos-ed in 1901. Referring to the tune in the trio s-ection, Elgar said to one of his 'Enigma' friends, 'Dorabella', 'I've got a tune that will knock 'em flat' . Its success at the London premiere under Henry Wood was frantic: 'the audience simply rose and yelled - the only time in the history of the Promenade concerts that

Musical Director: Alan Suttie Age range of performers: 15-18 years Swords of Moda Ling Cordon Peters Tijuana Samba Alan Brand Originally formed in 1987 by its present director, Alan Suttie, only two members survive from the first Northamptonshire County Youth Percussion Ensemble and after this concert they too move on to college. Having gained a Highly Commended Performance Award at last vear's :\ational Festival of ~1usic for Youth: the\" considered the name of the group somethi~g of a mouthful, so the title of the composition for this year's Festival was adopted instead. The ensemble consists of percussion players from the top county groups (youth orchestra, concert band) and rehearses once a week during school term. Swords of Moda Ling Cordon Peters The piece was written in 1966 and dedicated to the composer's teacher, Bernard Rogers, Head of Composition at the Eastman School of Music. Peters uses some of the stylistic traits of his teacher and the title is a play on words - the piece is modal in tonality. Tijuana Samba

YSGOL GLANAETHWY, BANGOR, GWYNEDD Tutors: Cefin Roberts/Rhian Roberts Soloist: Dwlan Evrig Age range of performers: 9-12 years Andrew Lloyd Webber Heno (Memory) Gwario (Another Op'nin) Cole Porter Arian (Money, Money) John Kander Pe bae nhw ngweld i nawr Cy Coleman (If They Could See Me Now) Moliannwn Welsh folk song Ysgol Glanaethwy is a drama school established to offer training in theatrical skills and techniques. As well as aiming to stage theatrical performances, two choirs have been formed. Both junior and senior choirs have competed in local and the national Eisteddfod and in the National Festival of Music for Youth. Ysgol Glanaethwy works solely through the medium of Welsh and strives to strengthen Welsh culture, tradition and language and hopes to contribute in the long run towards the development of the Welsh theatre. 'Arian', which means 'money', tells the story of a tramp who dreams of better things in life. We see him being tempted by gamblers, entertainers and by affluence. He becomes involved in the madness of spending and sings 'If They Could See Me Now'. In his dream he also discovers the negative side of money and awakens to realise that companionship and love are much more important than greed and wealth.

Alan Brand

Written by another American, this piece, like 'Swords', uses a mass of tuned percussion (but no piano) with some doubling on Latin instrumertts.

SPECIALIST MCSICI.-\NS AT ETON COLLEGE Eton College offers unri\-alled conditions and facilities for musicians. Careful arrangements are made for the curriculum of each specialist musician, to give time during the school day for his lessons and practice. The team of eight full-time staff and thirty-six visiting teachers is supplemented by many distinguished visitors who give master classes, talks and recitals. The large number and high quality of musicians at present in the school has enabled the First Orchestra to giw performances of such works as Brahms' 2nd Symphony, Bernstien's Symphonic Dances from West Side Story and Rachma-ninov's 3rd Piano Concerto. A total of 200 boys sing in the big school choir. The College Chapel Choir have recently visited France, America, Israel and the Arabian Gulf, and made two commercial records and two private cassettes, singing while at school for two or three choral services a week. At present five members of the school play in the National Youth Orchestra. In the last five years twenty-one boys have gained choral and organ scholarships to Oxford and Cambridge, this year including the organ scholarships at bqth Christ Church, Oxford and King's College, Cambridge. Last year three of our organ pupils passed their ARCO diploma, taking between them, six out of the seven prizes and this year one of them has gone on to gain his FRCO with the top prize. The school possesses six pipe organs. In addition to these musical facilities, music specialists take full advantage of Eton's outstanding academic teaching. In order to ensure that these opportunities are not denied to any deserving musician of high calibre, the scholarship fund has recently been increased to offer boys eight major scholarships per year. In cases of need all Eton scholarships can be supplemented up to the value of the whole school fee. Boys should be under Fourteen on 1st September of the year of entry.

If you wish to inspect the work of the department, please write for a Music Diary to: Ralph Allwood Precentor and Director of Music Eton College Windsor Berks SL4 6EW An informal preliminary audition and tour of the school may also be arranged.

String Players could you bring a Cup Final crowd to its feet at Wembley one day and win a standing ovation at the Albert Hall the next? As a Musician in the Royal Marines Band Service, the answer is quite definitely Yes. For though our biennial outing to the Cup Final at Wembley is always a memorable performance, those same Musicians could as well turn their hands to a Mozart symphony, a selection from Top of the Pops, or a clarinet quintet after a State Dinner aboard the Royal Yacht Britannia. They are probably the most versatile group of professional musicians in the world. That's because the training produces Musicians with a broad knowledge of music, not just instrumental technicians. Training includes taking in orchestral concerts, ballet and opera. Every Musician is trained on two

instruments: one for wind-band, the other orchestral. And we encourage entry for higher professional examinations set and marked by the Royal Schools of Music. It's not just a musical challenge: every Musician also carries out backup duties as a Royal Marine. And if you 're ambitious, it is worth noting that every Officer in the RMBS is promoted from the ranks of Musicians.
