A new book featuring Sydney Nicholson and the setting up of the College of St Nicolas and the School of English Church Music (now the Royal School of Church Music). Through the testimony of former choristers, archive letters and photographs (many of which have never previously been published), together with Nicholson’s personal accounts and diaries held in the RSCM archive, the two authors have pieced together a detailed account of the College’s first ten years, creating a fascinating insight into what life must have been like at this unique college. As well as biographical details of choristers, students and tutors at the College, there are details of the many well-known names in the music world and beyond who were associated with the early years of the SECM. The book also takes the opportunity to review the life and achievements of Sydney Nicholson, and to reassess the pioneering work of this remarkable man. With a foreword by Martin How and a wealth of photographs, the book also contains a detailed list of sound recordings made by the College choir, a list of Nicholson’s publications and comprehensive endnotes listing all the sources used, as well as additional information on the many characters mentioned. Dr John Henderson is Honorary Librarian of the RSCM, and Trevor Jarvis is Honorary Assistant Librarian.

Composed in 1996-1997 to verses by the 7th-century Chinese poet Li Tai-Po. The atmosphere of these songs, linked into a unified cycle by their shared sound system and connecting piano sections, is characterized by a fragile equilibrium of fantasy-like, extreme emotional states.

Inspired by Chinese tradition, this concerto-like dance suite includes: 1. Lion Dance, 2. YangKo, and 3. Muqam. Each movement draws from melodies and rhythms characteristic of various regions of China many centuries ago. CHINESE FOLK DANCE SUITE is available for violin with full orchestra, or as a recital work with piano.Supported by a major commissioning award from the Serge Koussevitzky Music Foundation in the Library of Congress, Chinese Folk Dance Suite is written for solo violin and orchestra; it was premiered by The Women’s Philharmonic with violin soloist Terrie Baune, conducted by Apo Hsu, on March 10, 2001, at Yerba Buena Center For the Arts Theater in San Francisco.Inspired by various Chinese traditional folk dances, the suite has three movements:I. Lion Dance. Traditionally, people dance with richly decorated hand-made lions, accompanied by percussion ensemble, to celebrate happy occasions and major festivals throughout the country. In this composition, I use Chinese drum and other percussion instruments in the background, to form a dynamic and rhythmic texture responding to the solo part, which imitates the tunes played on the suona (traditional Chinese trumpet). The pitch materials came from the traditional Guangdong tune “Dragon Boat Racing,†and the Chaozhou tune “Lion Playing Ball.â€II. YangKo. Originating in northern China, this is a major folk dance form in mass performance popularized in the country. In YangKo performance, people play rhythmic patterns on the drums hung around their waists while singing and dancing. In the second movement, I imagined a warm scene of YangKo dancing in distance. The solo violin plays a sweet and gracious melodic line while all members of the orchestra sing non-pitched syllables in different layers as the soft background, to imitate the percussion sound which produces the ever-going pulse.III. Muqam. This large-scale music and dance form, from the Uygur nationality in Xinjiang province, originated in the 15th century. My third movement use a 7/8 meter and the melodic style of Muqam music. The fiery dancing gesture culminates in the sustained climax section at the end of the work, after a colorful violin cadenza in both improvisational singing style and polyphonic writing with woven lines.

Few other works posed Brahms so many artistic and critical challenges as the Schicksalslied (Song of Destiny.) The name SAM-Klang takes the three voice parts from the arrangements -- Soprano, Alto and Men -- and combines it with the Scandinavian and German words for “sound†to create the portmanteau word “sound together†or “harmony.†The series offers basic and advanced choral repertoire. In addition to new repertoire and new arrangements, you will also find essential parts of the classical German, Scandinavian, French and English SATB repertoire, carefully and considerately reworked for SAM. The arrangements retain the characteristic features of the original movements and have almost the same richness of timbre, resulting in works which sound nearly unchanged to an audience. Piano reductions of all choral movements facilitate rehearsal preparation. The arrangements offer development opportunities for all voice sections, bringing new life and new quality to SAM choir work. SAM-Klang enables youth choirs to gain access to classical choral literature and ensures that mixed choirs who face challenges in finding singers for all male voice parts continue to have access to well-loved repertoire.
