In this film from 2008, we speak to conductor Richard Hickox about his upcoming performances of Vaughan Williams' semi-staged opera The Pilgrim's Progress with the Philharmonia Orchestra.
Carmina Burana is one of my favourite pieces of music, and in my opinion this BBC Proms archive recording is one of the most exciting performances.
The recording was recorded from BBC TV on the 4th September 1994. The super VHS tape recording was transferred to DVD in August 2008. Despite the old 4x3 screen ratio and a number of pops and crackles on the recording, I think it is still quite acceptable to watch, as I believe the performance makes up for low picture quality. This recording has been reduced to 696 MB for quicker loading to YouTube. I am hoping that YouTube visitors will enjoy it as much as I do. rodneyarnoldi@gmail.com

Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958 : England)
Serenade to Music (orchestral version)
Vaughan Williams composed the
Serenade to Music in 1938 as a tribute
to Sir Henry Wood on his golden
jubilee as a conductor. The original version,
a setting of the famous line from The
Merchant of Venice beginning 'How sweet
the moonlight sleeps upon this bank', is for
16 solo voices, each part being written for a
famous English singer of the day. The first
soloists' initials appear against their parts
in the score, e.g. I.B. for Isobel Baillie, E.T.
for Eva Turner, H.N. for Heddle Nash and
R.H. for Roy Henderson. Wood evidently
feared that the music would be lost when its
creators retired or died (and who could
afford 16 soloists very often)? So he asked
Vaughan Williams to turn it into orchestral
piece. This was completed by the end of
1938 and first performed by Wood and the
London Symphony Orchestra at Queen's Hall
on 10 February 1940. If it can only be
regarded as a kind of emergency substitute
for the real thing, the version heard
here is nevertheless an effective arrangement.

1. The Banner Of St. George, Op.33: Scene I
2. The Banner Of St. George, Op.33: Scene II - Epiloque (March)
Sir Edward Elgar composed The Banner of St. George on commission from Novello Music Publishers, in 1897, the year of Queen Victoria's diamond Jubilee. The commission was part of a strategy, on the part of Novello, to attempt to capitalize upon the celebrations which were to take place throughout Britain by commissioning a wide range of works, by a variety of composers. Elgar was asked to provide music to a libretto by Shapcott Wensley, which Novello had commissioned previously. This was somewhat of an unusual situation for Elgar, who usually chose his own subject and libretto, but the composer readily agreed. About thirty minutes in length, and scored for chorus and orchestra, this two-act ballad tells the story of St. George who arrives in the town of Sylene which is being threatened by a dragon. After rescuing the king's daughter, who has offered herself as a sacrifice to appease the dragon's wrath, St. George slays the creature and leads the community in singing. The work was premiered on 18 May 1897, in London, by St. Cuthbert's Hall Choral Society, a group from Kensington, under the direction of Cyril Miller.
Although warmly received at its premier, The Banner of St. George has since undergone some harsh criticism. Wensley's libretto is solid, but clearly uninspired. Elgar responded to the libretto by crafting music that is lyrical, and avoids the bombast that one might expect to find in a work commissioned in honor of the Queen's diamond Jubilee, but clearly fails to surpass the limitations of the libretto. Although not without its finer moments, the epilogue in particular, The Banner of St. George simply fails to rise to the level of the bar that Elgar had set for himself in 1896 with the premiers of Scenes From the Saga of King Olaf, and The Light of Life. Never the less, it is not a work without importance; the warm reception given the premier worked to enhance Elgar's stature as a composer of not, and set the stage for the triumphant reception of the Enigma Variations two years later

I. Villanelle - 0:00
When the new season has come,
when the cold has disappeared,
together we will go, my lovely one,
to gather lilies-of the valley in the woods.
Beneath our feet picking the pearls
that one sees trembling in the morning.
We will go to hear the blackbirds whistle.
Spring has come, my lovely one,
this is the month blessed by lovers;
and the bird, smoothing its wing,
speaks its verses from the rim of its nest.
Oh! Come here, onto this mossy bank
to speak of our beautiful love,
and say to me, in your sweet voice,
Forever!
Far, very far, wandering from our path,
setting to flight the hidden rabbit,
and the buck, in the mirror of the spring
admiring its great twisted antlers;
then home, all happy and at ease,
lacing our fingers together like baskets,
we'll return, carrying wild strawberries.
_________________________
II. Le spectre de la rose - 2:08
Lift your closed eyelids,
touched by a virginal dream!
I am the ghost of a rose
which you wore last night at the ball.
You took me, still pearled
with silver tears from the watering can,
and, throughout the star-filled festival
you carried me all the evening.
Oh you who were the cause of my death,
without your being able to chase it away,
every night my rose-colored ghost
will dance by your pillow.
But fear nothing; I claim
neither mass nor requiem.
This light perfume is my soul,
and I have come from paradise.
My destiny is worthy of envy
and to have a fate so beautiful
more than one might have given his life;
since your bosom is my tomb,
And upon the alabaster where I rest
a poet has written with a kiss:
"Here lies a rose
which all kings might envy."
____________________
III. Sur les lagunes - 9:04
My beautiful friend is dead;
I will weep forever.
Into the tomb she has carried
my soul and my heart.
To heaven, without waiting for me,
she has returned;
the angel who led her
did not want to take me.
How bitter is my fate!
Ah! To go to sea without love!
The fair creature
is lying in her coffin;
how everything in nature
seems to me to be in mourning!
The forsaken dove
weeps and dreams of the absent one.
My soul weeps and feels
that it has lost its partner!
How bitter is my fate!
Ah! To go to sea without love!
Over me the immense night
spreads itself like a shroud.
I sing my romance
which only heaven hears:
Ah! How beautiful she was
and how I loved her!
I will never love
another woman as much as I loved her...
How bitter is my fate!
Ah! To go to sea without love!
_________________
IV. l'Absence - 14:37
Return, return, my beloved!
Like a flower far from the sun,
the flower of my life is closed
far from your brilliant smile!
Between our hearts what distance!
What space between our kisses!
O bitter fate! O hard absence!
O great, unappeasable desires!
Return, return...
Between here and there what fields,
what cities and towns,
what valleys and mountains
to weary the feet of the horses!
Return, return...
________________________________
V. Au Cimitière (Claire de lune) - 19:52
Do you know the white tomb,
where floats, with a plaintive sound,
the shadow of a yew-tree?
On the yew a pale dove,
sad and alone in the sunset,
sings its song:
A melody morbidly tender,
at once charming and deadly,
which will do you harm
and which one wishes to listen to forever;
a melody like the sighing in heaven
of an angel in love.
One might say that an awakened soul
weeps beneath the earth together
with the song,
and, in sorrow at having been forgotten,
laments by cooing
very sweetly.
On the wings of the music
one slowly feels returning
a memory.
A shadow, an angelic form
passes in a ray of trembling light,
veiled in white.
The half-closed Marvels of Peru
spread their delicate and sweet perfume
about you,
and the ghost, standing limply,
murmurs, holding her arms out to you:
"You will return!"
Oh! Never again will I go near the tomb
when evening falls
in its black robe,
to listen to the pale dove
singing, on the branch of the yew-tree,
its plaintive song.
_____________________
VI. L'Ile inconnue - 24:57
Tell me, pretty young girl,
where do you wish to go?
The sail spreads its wing,
the breeze is beginning to blow.
The oar is of ivory,
the flag of silk,
the rudder of pure gold;
for ballast I have an orange,
for sail the wing of an angel,
for cabin-boy, a seraph.
Tell me...
Is it to the Baltic sea?
To the Pacific ocean?
To the island of Java?
Or is it rather to Norway,
to gather snow-flowers,
or the flowers of Angsoka?
Tell me, tell me, where do you want to go?
"Take me," says the pretty one,
"to the faithful shore
where people love forever!"
That shore, my dear,
is almost unknown
in the country of love.
Where do you want to go?
The breeze is beginning to blow.

John Ireland (1879-1962 : England)
A Downland Suite
arranged for string orchestra by John Ireland & Geoffrey Bush
II: Elegy: Lento espressivo
'A Downland Suite' was written as a brass band piece for
the National Brass Band Championships of Great Britain
in 1932, and, as the test piece, was performed repeatedly
at that year's festival at Crystal Palace on 1 October.
Ireland's pupil Geoffrey Bush, who was commissioned in
1978 by the John Ireland Trust, and made a version of the
whole suite on reconceiving the music as a composition for
string orchestra rather than making a literal re-arrangement
of the brass band version.

Richard Sidney Hickox CBE (5 March 1948 – 23 November 2008) was an English conductor of choral, orchestral and operatic music.
Hickox was born in Stokenchurch in Buckinghamshire into a musical family. After attending the Royal Grammar School, High Wycombe from 1959 to 1966, he studied at the Royal Academy of Music in London from 1966 to 1967, then was an organ scholar at Queens' College, Cambridge from 1967 to 1970.
In 1967, while his father was Vicar of Wooburn, Buckinghamshire, Richard founded the Wooburn Festival and eventually became its President. The Festival is ongoing and features music, drama and the visual arts. Richard also founded the Wooburn Singers and continued as conductor until succeeded by Stephen Jackson. Hickox founded the City of London Sinfonia in 1971, remaining music director until his death, and also founded the Richard Hickox Singers and Orchestra in the same year. The Richard Hickox Singers feature in Kate Bush's album Hounds of Love, released in 1985. He was the director of music at the St. Endellion Music Festival from 1972 to 2008. In 1972 at the age of only 24 he was appointed Martin Neary's successor as organist and master of music at St. Margaret's, Westminster (the church of the Houses of Parliament), subsequently adding the directorships of the London Symphony Chorus (1976) and Bradford Festival Choral Society (1978). From 1982 to 1990, he served as Artistic Director of the Northern Sinfonia. He was Associate Guest Conductor of the London Symphony Orchestra from 1985 until his death. He was also Chorus Director of the London Symphony Chorus from 1976 to 1991, with whom he premiered The Three Kings by Peter Maxwell Davies in 1995. He also premiered A Dance on the Hill in 2005, by the same composer. His repertoire included over 100 first performances.

Sir Edward William Elgar, 1st Baronet OM, GCVO (2 June 1857 – 23 February 1934) was an English composer, many of whose works have entered the British and international classical concert repertoire. Among his best-known compositions are orchestral works including the Enigma Variations, the Pomp and Circumstance Marches, concertos for violin and cello, and two symphonies. He also composed choral works, including The Dream of Gerontius, chamber music and songs. He was appointed Master of the King's Musick in 1924.
Although Elgar is often regarded as a typically English composer, most of his musical influences were not from England but from continental Europe. He felt himself to be an outsider, not only musically, but socially. In musical circles dominated by academics, he was a self-taught composer; in Protestant Britain, his Roman Catholicism was regarded with suspicion in some quarters; and in the class-conscious society of Victorian and Edwardian Britain, he was acutely sensitive about his humble origins even after he achieved recognition. He nevertheless married the daughter of a senior British army officer. She inspired him both musically and socially, but he struggled to achieve success until his forties, when after a series of moderately successful works his Enigma Variations (1899) became immediately popular in Britain and overseas. He followed the Variations with a choral work, The Dream of Gerontius (1900), based on a Roman Catholic text that caused some disquiet in the Anglican establishment in Britain, but it became, and has remained, a core repertory work in Britain and elsewhere. His later full-length religious choral works were well received but have not entered the regular repertory. The first of his Pomp and Circumstance Marches (1901) is well known in the English-speaking world.

Giuseppe Fortunino Francesco Verdi (Italian pronunciation: [dʒuˈzɛppe ˈverdi]; 10 October 1813 – 27 January 1901) was an Italian Romantic composer, mainly of opera. He was one of the most influential composers of the 19th century. His works are frequently performed in opera houses throughout the world and, transcending the boundaries of the genre, some of his themes have long since taken root in popular culture – such as "La donna è mobile" from Rigoletto, "Va, pensiero" (The Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves) from Nabucco, "Libiamo ne' lieti calici" (The Drinking Song) from La traviata and the "Grand March" from Aida.
Verdi’s masterworks dominate the standard opera repertoire a century and a half after their composition.
Verdi was born the son of Carlo Giuseppe Verdi and Luigia Uttini in Le Roncole, a village near Busseto, then in the Département Taro which was a part of the First French Empire after the annexation of the Duchy of Parma and Piacenza. The baptismal register, on 11 October lists him as being "born yesterday", but since days were often considered to begin at sunset, this could have meant either 9 or 10 October. The next day, he was baptized in the Roman Catholic Church in Latin as Joseph Fortuninus Franciscus. The day after that (Tuesday), Verdi's father took his newborn the three miles to Busseto, where the baby was recorded as Joseph Fortunin François; the clerk wrote in French. "So it happened that for the civil and temporal world Verdi was born a Frenchman."

Villanelle - 0:00 When the new season has come, when the cold has disappeared, together we will go, my lovely one, to gather lilies-of the valley in the woods. Beneath our feet picking the pearls that one sees trembling in the morning. We will go to hear the blackbirds whistle. Spring has come, my lovely one, this is the month blessed by lovers; and the bird, smoothing its wing, speaks its verses from the rim of its nest. Oh! Come here, onto this mossy bank to speak of our beautiful love, and say to me, in your sweet voice, Forever! Far, very far, wandering from our path, setting to flight the hidden rabbit, and the buck, in the mirror of the spring admiring its great twisted antlers; then home, all happy and at ease, lacing our fingers together like baskets, we'll return, carrying wild strawberries. _________________________ II. Le spectre de la rose - 2:08 Lift your closed eyelids, touched by a virginal dream! I am the ghost of a rose which you wore last night at the ball. You took me, still pearled with silver tears from the watering can, and, throughout the star-filled festival you carried me all the evening. Oh you who were the cause of my death, without your being able to chase it away, every night my rose-colored ghost will dance by your pillow. But fear nothing; I claim neither mass nor requiem. This light perfume is my soul, and I have come from paradise. My destiny is worthy of envy and to have a fate so beautiful more than one might have given his life; since your bosom is my tomb, And upon the alabaster where I rest a poet has written with a kiss: "Here lies a rose which all kings might envy." ____________________ III. Sur les lagunes - 9:04 My beautiful friend is dead; I will weep forever. Into the tomb she has carried my soul and my heart. To heaven, without waiting for me, she has returned; the angel who led her did not want to take me. How bitter is my fate! Ah! To go to sea without love! The fair creature is lying in her coffin; how everything in nature seems to me to be in mourning! The forsaken dove weeps and dreams of the absent one. My soul weeps and feels that it has lost its partner! How bitter is my fate! Ah! To go to sea without love! Over me the immense night spreads itself like a shroud. I sing my romance which only heaven hears: Ah! How beautiful she was and how I loved her! I will never love another woman as much as I loved her... How bitter is my fate! Ah! To go to sea without love! _________________ IV. l'Absence - 14:37 Return, return, my beloved! Like a flower far from the sun, the flower of my life is closed far from your brilliant smile! Between our hearts what distance! What space between our kisses! O bitter fate! O hard absence! O great, unappeasable desires! Return, return... Between here and there what fields, what cities and towns, what valleys and mountains to weary the feet of the horses! Return, return... ________________________________ V. Au Cimitière (Claire de lune) - 19:52 Do you know the white tomb, where floats, with a plaintive sound, the shadow of a yew-tree? On the yew a pale dove, sad and alone in the sunset, sings its song: A melody morbidly tender, at once charming and deadly, which will do you harm and which one wishes to listen to forever; a melody like the sighing in heaven of an angel in love. One might say that an awakened soul weeps beneath the earth together with the song, and, in sorrow at having been forgotten, laments by cooing very sweetly. On the wings of the music one slowly feels returning a memory. A shadow, an angelic form passes in a ray of trembling light, veiled in white. The half-closed Marvels of Peru spread their delicate and sweet perfume about you, and the ghost, standing limply, murmurs, holding her arms out to you: "You will return!" Oh! Never again will I go near the tomb when evening falls in its black robe, to listen to the pale dove singing, on the branch of the yew-tree, its plaintive song. _____________________ VI. L'Ile inconnue - 24:57 Tell me, pretty young girl, where do you wish to go? The sail spreads its wing, the breeze is beginning to blow. The oar is of ivory, the flag of silk, the rudder of pure gold; for ballast I have an orange, for sail the wing of an angel, for cabin-boy, a seraph. Tell me... Is it to the Baltic sea? To the Pacific ocean? To the island of Java? Or is it rather to Norway, to gather snow-flowers, or the flowers of Angsoka? Tell me, tell me, where do you want to go? "Take me," says the pretty one, "to the faithful shore where people love forever!" That shore, my dear, is almost unknown in the country of love. Where do you want to go? The breeze is beginning to blow. -

JOHN IRELAND: Elegy - City of London Sinfonia - Richard HickoxJOHN IRELAND: Elegy - City of London Sinfonia - Richard Hickox
John Ireland (1879-1962 : England) A Downland Suite arranged for string orchestra by John Ireland & Geoffrey Bush II: Elegy: Lento espressivo 'A Downland Suite' was written as a brass band piece for the National Brass Band Championships of Great Britain in 1932, and, as the test piece, was performed repeatedly at that year's festival at Crystal Palace on 1 October. Ireland's pupil Geoffrey Bush, who was commissioned in 1978 by the John Ireland Trust, and made a version of the whole suite on reconceiving the music as a composition for string orchestra rather than making a literal re-arrangement of the brass band version.

Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958 : England)
Serenade to Music (orchestral version)
Vaughan Williams composed the
Serenade to Music in 1938 as a tribute
to Sir Henry Wood on his golden
jubilee as a conductor. The original version,
a setting of the famous line from The
Merchant of Venice beginning 'How sweet
the moonlight sleeps upon this bank', is for
16 solo voices, each part being written for a
famous English singer of the day. The first
soloists' initials appear against their parts
in the score, e.g. I.B. for Isobel Baillie, E.T.
for Eva Turner, H.N. for Heddle Nash and
R.H. for Roy Henderson. Wood evidently
feared that the music would be lost when its
creators retired or died (and who could
afford 16 soloists very often)? So he asked
Vaughan Williams to turn it into orchestral
piece. This was completed by the end of
1938 and first performed by Wood and the
London Symphony Orchestra at Queen's Hall
on 10 February 1940. If it can only be
regarded as a kind of emergency substitute
for the real thing, the version heard
here is nevertheless an effective arrangement.

1. The Banner Of St. George, Op.33: Scene I
2. The Banner Of St. George, Op.33: Scene II - Epiloque (March)
Sir Edward Elgar composed The Banner of St. George on commission from Novello Music Publishers, in 1897, the year of Queen Victoria's diamond Jubilee. The commission was part of a strategy, on the part of Novello, to attempt to capitalize upon the celebrations which were to take place throughout Britain by commissioning a wide range of works, by a variety of composers. Elgar was asked to provide music to a libretto by Shapcott Wensley, which Novello had commissioned previously. This was somewhat of an unusual situation for Elgar, who usually chose his own subject and libretto, but the composer readily agreed. About thirty minutes in length, and scored for chorus and orchestra, this two-act ballad tells the story of St. George who arrives in the town of Sylene which is being threatened by a dragon. After rescuing the king's daughter, who has offered herself as a sacrifice to appease the dragon's wrath, St. George slays the creature and leads the community in singing. The work was premiered on 18 May 1897, in London, by St. Cuthbert's Hall Choral Society, a group from Kensington, under the direction of Cyril Miller.
Although warmly received at its premier, The Banner of St. George has since undergone some harsh criticism. Wensley's libretto is solid, but clearly uninspired. Elgar responded to the libretto by crafting music that is lyrical, and avoids the bombast that one might expect to find in a work commissioned in honor of the Queen's diamond Jubilee, but clearly fails to surpass the limitations of the libretto. Although not without its finer moments, the epilogue in particular, The Banner of St. George simply fails to rise to the level of the bar that Elgar had set for himself in 1896 with the premiers of Scenes From the Saga of King Olaf, and The Light of Life. Never the less, it is not a work without importance; the warm reception given the premier worked to enhance Elgar's stature as a composer of not, and set the stage for the triumphant reception of the Enigma Variations two years later

Elgar responded to the libretto by crafting music that is lyrical, and avoids the bombast that one might expect to find in a work commissioned in honor of the Queen's diamond Jubilee, but clearly fails to surpass the limitations of the libretto. Although not without its finer moments, the epilogue in particular, The Banner of St. George simply fails to rise to the level of the bar that Elgar had set for himself in 1896 with the premiers of Scenes From the Saga of King Olaf, and The Light of Life. Never the less, it is not a work without importance; the warm reception given the premier worked to enhance Elgar's stature as a composer of not, and set the stage for the triumphant reception of the Enigma Variations two years later

When the new season has come,
when the cold has disappeared,
together we will go, my lovely one,
to gather lilies-of the valley in the woods.
Beneath our feet picking the pearls
that one sees trembling in the morning.
We will go to hear the blackbirds whistle.
Spring has come, my lovely one,
this is the month blessed by lovers;
and the bird, smoothing its wing,
speaks its verses from the rim of its nest.
Oh! Come here, onto this mossy bank
to speak of our beautiful love,
and say to me, in your sweet voice,
Forever!
Far, very far, wandering from our path,
setting to flight the hidden rabbit,
and the buck, in the mirror of the spring
admiring its great twisted antlers;
then home, all happy and at ease,
lacing our fingers together like baskets,
we'll return, carrying wild strawberries.
_________________________
II. Le spectre de la rose - 2:08
Lift your closed eyelids,
touched by a virginal dream!
I am the ghost of a rose
which you wore last night at the ball.
You took me, still pearled
with silver tears from the watering can,
and, throughout the star-filled festival
you carried me all the evening.
Oh you who were the cause of my death,
without your being able to chase it away,
every night my rose-colored ghost
will dance by your pillow.
But fear nothing; I claim
neither mass nor requiem.
This light perfume is my soul,
and I have come from paradise.
My destiny is worthy of envy
and to have a fate so beautiful
more than one might have given his life;
since your bosom is my tomb,
And upon the alabaster where I rest
a poet has written with a kiss:
"Here lies a rose
which all kings might envy."
____________________
III. Sur les lagunes - 9:04
My beautiful friend is dead;
I will weep forever.
Into the tomb she has carried
my soul and my heart.
To heaven, without waiting for me,
she has returned;
the angel who led her
did not want to take me.
How bitter is my fate!
Ah! To go to sea without love!
The fair creature
is lying in her coffin;
how everything in nature
seems to me to be in mourning!
The forsaken dove
weeps and dreams of the absent one.
My soul weeps and feels
that it has lost its partner!
How bitter is my fate!
Ah! To go to sea without love!
Over me the immense night
spreads itself like a shroud.
I sing my romance
which only heaven hears:
Ah! How beautiful she was
and how I loved her!
I will never love
another woman as much as I loved her...
How bitter is my fate!
Ah! To go to sea without love!
_________________
IV. l'Absence - 14:37
Return, return, my beloved!
Like a flower far from the sun,
the flower of my life is closed
far from your brilliant smile!
Between our hearts what distance!
What space between our kisses!
O bitter fate! O hard absence!
O great, unappeasable desires!
Return, return...
Between here and there what fields,
what cities and towns,
what valleys and mountains
to weary the feet of the horses!
Return, return...
________________________________
V. Au Cimitière (Claire de lune) - 19:52
Do you know the white tomb,
where floats, with a plaintive sound,
the shadow of a yew-tree?
On the yew a pale dove,
sad and alone in the sunset,
sings its song:
A melody morbidly tender,
at once charming and deadly,
which will do you harm
and which one wishes to listen to forever;
a melody like the sighing in heaven
of an angel in love.
One might say that an awakened soul
weeps beneath the earth together
with the song,
and, in sorrow at having been forgotten,
laments by cooing
very sweetly.
On the wings of the music
one slowly feels returning
a memory.
A shadow, an angelic form
passes in a ray of trembling light,
veiled in white.
The half-closed Marvels of Peru
spread their delicate and sweet perfume
about you,
and the ghost, standing limply,
murmurs, holding her arms out to you:
"You will return!"
Oh! Never again will I go near the tomb
when evening falls
in its black robe,
to listen to the pale dove
singing, on the branch of the yew-tree,
its plaintive song.

VI. L'Ile inconnue - 24:57
Tell me, pretty young girl,
where do you wish to go?
The sail spreads its wing,
the breeze is beginning to blow.
The oar is of ivory,
the flag of silk,
the rudder of pure gold;
for ballast I have an orange,
for sail the wing of an angel,
for cabin-boy, a seraph.
Tell me...
Is it to the Baltic sea?
To the Pacific ocean?
To the island of Java?
Or is it rather to Norway,
to gather snow-flowers,
or the flowers of Angsoka?
Tell me, tell me, where do you want to go?
"Take me," says the pretty one,
"to the faithful shore
where people love forever!"
That shore, my dear,
is almost unknown
in the country of love.
Where do you want to go?
The breeze is beginning to blow.

A Downland Suite
arranged for string orchestra by John Ireland & Geoffrey Bush
II: Elegy: Lento espressivo
'A Downland Suite' was written as a brass band piece for
the National Brass Band Championships of Great Britain
in 1932, and, as the test piece, was performed repeatedly
at that year's festival at Crystal Palace on 1 October.
Ireland's pupil Geoffrey Bush, who was commissioned in
1978 by the John Ireland Trust, and made a version of the
whole suite on reconceiving the music as a composition for
string orchestra rather than making a literal re-arrangement
of the brass band version.

In the early days of August 1798, the British Admiral Lord Nelson engaged Napoleon's fleet at Aboukir Bay, near the mouth of the Nile River. Nelson's victory in what became known as the Battle of the Nile was a major breakthrough in the battle against the French. News of it traveled quickly, and Nelson became a celebrated hero.
Back at the Esterházy court, Franz Josef Haydn was putting the finishing touches to his Mass in D minor, the third of six masses he wrote over the years 1796 to 1802 to commemorate the nameday of Princess Marie Hermenegild, the wife of his patron Prince Nikolaus II Esterházy. Haydn had already taken note of the war against Napoleon in his Mass in Time of War (1796), and there are likewise allusions to the fighting in the Mass in D minor -- Haydn's only mass in a minor key -- whose original title, "Missa in angustiis", can be translated as Mass in Time of Difficulty or Anxiety. The news of Nelson's victory had probably reached Esterháza by the time of the first performance of the mass, under Haydn's direction, on 23 September 1798; in September 1800, Admiral Nelson himself visited Eisenstadt on his return trip to London. While there, he heard a performance of the D minor Mass, which by that point was firmly associated with him -- hence the nickname which has come down to us.
- The atmosphere of war is evident in the opening Kyrie, especially the harshness of its trumpet and timpani fanfares.
- The celebratory Gloria that follows evokes the figure of Handel, with whose music Haydn had become well acquainted during his years in London earlier in the 1790s.
- A lovely, peaceful Qui tollis is at the heart of the Gloria, in which the bass soloist is supported by the chorus and gentle decoration from the organ (probably played by Haydn himself at the work's premiere).
- The Credo begins traditionally with an old church melody sung polyphonically by the chorus. Then it moves into a ravishing Et incarnatus for the soprano soloist, the usual darkening of mood as the text refers to the Crucifixion, and lastly a brightening of spirit at the Et resurrexit.
- A brief, restrained Sanctus follows.
- The portentous Benedictus dominates the second half of the mass; the anger of the hammering of the trumpets and timpani towards its end is one of the fiercest passages in all of Haydn's music.
- The mood changes with a sweetly flowing Agnus Dei for the vocal soloists, and the chorus takes over for the rousing Dona Nobis Pacem which concludes the work.
wn.com/Joseph Haydn Mass No. 11 In D Minor, Nelson Mass
- Composer: Franz Joseph Haydn (31 March 1732 -- 31 May 1809)
- Orchestra: Collegium Musicum 90
- Conductor: Richard Hickox
- Soloists: Mark Padmore (tenor), Stephen Varcoe (bass), Pamela Helen Stephen (mezzo soprano), Susan Gritton (soprano)
- Year of recording: 1998
Mass for soloists, chorus, organ & orchestra in D minor ("Lord Nelson"), H. 22/11, written in 1798.
00:00 - 1. Kyrie
04:29 - 2. Gloria
15:07 - 3. Credo
24:30 - 4. Sanctus
26:59 - 5. Benedictus
32:59 - 6. Agnus Dei
In the early days of August 1798, the British Admiral Lord Nelson engaged Napoleon's fleet at Aboukir Bay, near the mouth of the Nile River. Nelson's victory in what became known as the Battle of the Nile was a major breakthrough in the battle against the French. News of it traveled quickly, and Nelson became a celebrated hero.
Back at the Esterházy court, Franz Josef Haydn was putting the finishing touches to his Mass in D minor, the third of six masses he wrote over the years 1796 to 1802 to commemorate the nameday of Princess Marie Hermenegild, the wife of his patron Prince Nikolaus II Esterházy. Haydn had already taken note of the war against Napoleon in his Mass in Time of War (1796), and there are likewise allusions to the fighting in the Mass in D minor -- Haydn's only mass in a minor key -- whose original title, "Missa in angustiis", can be translated as Mass in Time of Difficulty or Anxiety. The news of Nelson's victory had probably reached Esterháza by the time of the first performance of the mass, under Haydn's direction, on 23 September 1798; in September 1800, Admiral Nelson himself visited Eisenstadt on his return trip to London. While there, he heard a performance of the D minor Mass, which by that point was firmly associated with him -- hence the nickname which has come down to us.
- The atmosphere of war is evident in the opening Kyrie, especially the harshness of its trumpet and timpani fanfares.
- The celebratory Gloria that follows evokes the figure of Handel, with whose music Haydn had become well acquainted during his years in London earlier in the 1790s.
- A lovely, peaceful Qui tollis is at the heart of the Gloria, in which the bass soloist is supported by the chorus and gentle decoration from the organ (probably played by Haydn himself at the work's premiere).
- The Credo begins traditionally with an old church melody sung polyphonically by the chorus. Then it moves into a ravishing Et incarnatus for the soprano soloist, the usual darkening of mood as the text refers to the Crucifixion, and lastly a brightening of spirit at the Et resurrexit.

HOLST: Ode to Death, Op 38, H144 - Hickox/City of London Sinfonia/London Symphony Chorus
Gustav Theodore Holst (1874-1934 : England) Ode to Death, Op.38, H144 (1919) Holst’s ‘Ode to Death’ was composed in the summer of 1919. The motivation behind the setting of ‘When lilacs last in the Door-yard Bloom’d’ was the futility & terrible waste of life in the First World War Words: Walt Whitman (1819-1892) from Leaves of Grass, ‘When lilacs last in the Door-yard Bloom’d’ Come, lovely and soothing Death, Undulate round the world, serenely arriving, arriving, In the day, in the night, to all, to each, Sooner or later, delicate Death.

The Fan Carpet's Lydia Kay in association with #ActingHour sat down with Asa Butterfield and Morgan Matthews for their new film X+Y.
Directed by Morgan Matthews, X + Y tells the story of teenage maths prodigy Nathan (Asa Butterfield), who struggles when it comes to building relationships with other people, not least with his mother, Julie (Sally Hawkins). In a world difficult to comprehend, he finds comfort in numbers. And when Nathan is taken under the wing of unconventional and anarchic teacher, Mr. Humphreys (Rafe Spall), the pair forge an unusual friendship.
Eventually, Nathan’s talents win him a place on the UK National team at the International Mathematics Olympiad (IMO) and the team travel to a training camp in Taiwan, under the supervision of squad leader Richard (Eddie Marsan).
In unfamiliar surroundings, Nathan is confronted by a series of unexpected challenges — not least the unfamiliar feelings he begins to experience for his Chinese counterpart, the beautiful Zhang Mei (Jo Yang), feelings that develop when the young mathematicians return to England for the IMO, held at Trinity College, Cambridge.
From suburban England to bustling Taipei and back again, this original and heart-warming film tracks the funny and complex relationships that Nathan builds, as he is confronted by the irrational nature of love.
Set to be one of the most talked about independent films of the year, X + Y is nominated for four BIFAs, including Best Actor (Asa Butterfield), Best Supporting Actress (Sally Hawkins) and Best Supporting Actor (Rafe Spall), director Morgan Matthews is nominated for the Douglas Hickox Award for Best Debut Director.
X+Y opens in cinemas Friday 13th March.

Lyrics:
Hello, Earth.
Hello, Earth.
With just one hand held up high
I can blot you out,
Out of sight.
Peek-a-boo,
Peek-a-boo, little Earth.
With just my heart and my mind
I can be driving,
Driving home,
And you asleep
On the seat.
I get out of my car,
Step into the night
And look up at the sky.
And there's something bright,
Travelling fast.
Look at it go!
Look at it go!
Hello, Earth.
Hello, Earth.
Watching storms
Start to form
Over America.
Can't do anything.
Just watch them swing
With the wind
Out to sea.
All you sailors,
("Get out of the waves! Get out of the water!")
All life-savers,
("Get out of the waves! Get out of the water!")
All you cruisers,
("Get out of the waves! Get out of the water!")
All you fishermen,
Head for home.
Go to sleep, little Earth.
I was there at the birth,
Out of the cloudburst,
The head of the tempest.
Murderer!
Murderer of calm.
Why did I go?
Why did I go?
*"Tiefer, tiefer.
Irgendwo in der Tiefe
Gibt es ein licht."*
Go to sleep little Earth.
*"Deeper, deeper, somewhere in the deep there is a light"

(c) BBC 2008 - John Bridcut (Crux Productions)
One is impelled to share art when it can't be appreciated by any other means.
It's been almost five years now since this marvellous film first aired on BBC Television, and it was until recently available to UK viewers via the BBC's i-Player, in glorious HD.
No longer alas, and given the many requests I have seen here and elsewhere for a viewing, I have uploaded it, at the risk of upsetting some parties. I seldom upload entire videos on my Channel which contain no original content of my own, but I felt this case should be another of those few exceptions.
In order to minimise this risk (perhaps) I have deliberately emasculated video quality, and converted to monochrome so as not to hurt any commercial interests. It is a rather unsatisfactory compromise, but in the continuing absence of any sign of a much-anticipated commercial DVD release, so be it. This is a stop-gap - a shadow of the original film, but it is here for the sake of art, of culture, of education, and of admirers of VW the World over.
Moreover, I think the world would be a poorer place if this film were to spend the rest of its days in some dark vault owing to "rights issues". This is not John Bridcut's fault, nor the BBC's: we live in a crazily litigious, super-commercial World now which, among other abuses, keeps some works of art in film perpetually inaccessible, notwithstanding the fact that people are prepared to pay for them. This is nuts: by far the ideal for us all would be a Blu-Ray DVD of this film to purchase, to cherish, and to reward the film-makers - but it hasn't happened.
That over with, this is a compelling film, beautifully crafted for the BBC by John Bridcut, cinematographers Dirk Nel and Jonathan Partridge, and editor Samuel Santana. It was Winner of the Silver Prize at the FIPA Documentary Festival in Biarritz.
I was particularly struck by John's inspired decision to play VW's music "live" when interviewing his subjects. It was a key which unlocked their hearts; their souls - and it nuanced the conventional interview into deeper, more telling waters. I was greatly moved by their witness.
"I was simply knocked sideways by this work. It's one of the most wonderful musical experiences I've ever had, and I've listened to music all my life." Jill Balcon, regarding VW 5th Symphony. Jill chose the Romanza from this Symphony on BBC's Desert Island Discs as the piece of music she would take to her desert island, if she could take only one.
An example is here: (now sadly, the late) Jill Balcon 1:02:08 et seq
I found Jill's account heartbreaking, and yet hugely funny and naughty, elsewhere in this film. What a marvellous, beautiful lady - I almost feel I know her; wanted to hug her, and I regret that she came into my consciousness only after her death. (Update: I was touched by her son Daniel Day-Lewis' dedication to her of his Oscar for his performance in the film "Lincoln").
By contrast, I thought Professor Byron Adams' account really rather irritating in his shallow, gossipy demeanour - but I'm willing to speculate that John intended it to be just so. I'm sorry to be so harsh.
REVIEW
'The programme was crammed with memories of people who had known him and loved him, including the mistress, who became his wife and outlived him by almost half a century. Best of all there was stacks of music. Too often arts programmes eschew the art itself, on the grounds that viewers will be bored. But this was thrilling to hear and entirely complemented the narrative. This is the kind of experience we can only get from television, blending words, images and sound in a way no other medium can. Thank heavens some people — in this case, John Bridcut — are still making such programmes. He deserves thanks and very hearty congratulations.'

This is a stop-gap - a shadow of the original film, but it is here for the sake of art, of culture, of education, and of admirers of VW the World over.
Moreover, I think the world would be a poorer place if this film were to spend the rest of its days in some dark vault owing to "rights issues". This is not John Bridcut's fault, nor the BBC's: we live in a crazily litigious, super-commercial World now which, among other abuses, keeps some works of art in film perpetually inaccessible, notwithstanding the fact that people are prepared to pay for them. This is nuts: by far the ideal for us all would be a Blu-Ray DVD of this film to purchase, to cherish, and to reward the film-makers - but it hasn't happened.
That over with, this is a compelling film, beautifully crafted for the BBC by John Bridcut, cinematographers Dirk Nel and Jonathan Partridge, and editor Samuel Santana. It was Winner of the Silver Prize at the FIPA Documentary Festival in Biarritz.
I was particularly struck by John's inspired decision to play VW's music "live" when interviewing his subjects. It was a key which unlocked their hearts; their souls - and it nuanced the conventional interview into deeper, more telling waters. I was greatly moved by their witness.
"I was simply knocked sideways by this work. It's one of the most wonderful musical experiences I've ever had, and I've listened to music all my life." Jill Balcon, regarding VW 5th Symphony. Jill chose the Romanza from this Symphony on BBC's Desert Island Discs as the piece of music she would take to her desert island, if she could take only one.
An example is here: (now sadly, the late) Jill Balcon 1:02:08 et seq
I found Jill's account heartbreaking, and yet hugely funny and naughty, elsewhere in this film. What a marvellous, beautiful lady - I almost feel I know her; wanted to hug her, and I regret that she came into my consciousness only after her death. (Update: I was touched by her son Daniel Day-Lewis' dedication to her of his Oscar for his performance in the film "Lincoln").
By contrast, I thought Professor Byron Adams' account really rather irritating in his shallow, gossipy demeanour - but I'm willing to speculate that John intended it to be just so. I'm sorry to be so harsh.
REVIEW
'The programme was crammed with memories of people who had known him and loved him, including the mistress, who became his wife and outlived him by almost half a century. Best of all there was stacks of music. Too often arts programmes eschew the art itself, on the grounds that viewers will be bored. But this was thrilling to hear and entirely complemented the narrative. This is the kind of experience we can only get from television, blending words, images and sound in a way no other medium can. Thank heavens some people — in this case, John Bridcut — are still making such programmes. He deserves thanks and very hearty congratulations.'

Gustav Theodore Holst (1874-1934 : England)
Ode to Death, Op.38, H144 (1919)
Holst’s ‘Ode to Death’ was composed in the summer of 1919.
The motivation behind the setting of
‘When lilacs last in the Door-yard Bloom’d’
was the futility & terrible waste of life in the First World War
Words: Walt Whitman (1819-1892) from Leaves of Grass,
‘When lilacs last in the Door-yard Bloom’d’
Come, lovely and soothing Death,
Undulate round the world, serenely arriving, arriving,
In the day, in the night, to all, to each,
Sooner or later, delicate Death.
Prais’d be the fathomless universe,
For life and joy, and for objects and knowledge curious:
And for love, sweet love – But praise! praise! praise!
For the sure-enwinding arms of cool-enfolding death.
Dark Mother, always gliding near, with soft feet,
Have none chanted for thee a chant of fullest welcome?
Then I chant it for thee - I glorify thee above all;
I bring thee a song that when thou must indeed come, come unfalteringly.
Approach, strong Deliveress!
When it is so – when thou hast taken them, I joyously sing
the dead,
Lost in the loving, floating ocean of thee,
Laved in the flood of thy bliss, O Death.
From me thee glad serenades,
Dances for thee I propose, saluting thee – adornments and feastings for thee;
And the sight of the open landscape, and the high-spread sky,
are fitting,
And life and the fields, and the huge and thoughtful night.
The night, in silence, under many a star;
The ocean shore, and the husky whispering wave, whose voice
I know;
And the soul turning to thee, O vast and well-veil’d Death,
And the body gratefully nestling close to thee.
Over the tree-tops I float thee a song!
Over the rising and sinking waves - over the myriad fields, and the
prairies wide;
Over the dense-pack’d cities all, and the teeming wharves and ways,
I float this carol with joy, with joy to thee, O Death!

WW1 poem by an unknown Soldier called
"The Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red"
The blood swept lands and seas of red,
Where angels dare to tread.
As God cried a tear of pain as the angels fell,
Again and again.
As the tears of mine fell to the ground
To sleep with the flowers of red
As any be dead
My children see and work through fields of my
Own with corn and wheat,
Blessed by love so far from pain of my resting
Fields so far from my love.
It be time to put my hand up and end this pain
Of living hell. to see the people around me
Fall someone angel as the mist falls around
And the rain so thick with black thunder I hear
Over the clouds, to sleep forever and kiss
The flower of my people gone before time
To sleep and cry no more
I put my hand up and see the land of red,
This is my time to go over,
I may not come back
So sleep, kiss the boys for me
