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.

This slow jazz waltz, Black Narcissus, was written by Joe Henderson and arranged by Ramon Ricker and features the tenor sax. Although originally written for five saxophones (AATTBar) and piano, this arrangement works equally well using the optional parts for a trumpet/flugelhorn and trombone.

Henderson is a city in Clark County, Nevada, just southeast of Las Vegas and surrounded by desert: this was the inspiration for the title. Desert Dances opens with a lively introduction, mostly in 3/4, which pervades the faster sections of the piece. This subsides to introduce a slower dance which expands to a full-band climax. The introduction soon returns and leads to the main theme of the piece, a waltz-like melody played by the full ensemble. A short bridge passage follows, which leads to a legato central theme. This is played twice and heralds the return of the main theme and a short coda which closes the work. An imaginative work for concert or contest with nice features throughout all groups of the band.

Was ist Jazz? Wo ist er entstanden, wie lasst er sich definieren? In zwei grossen Abschnitten geht Arrigo Polillo diesen Fragen nach und setzt sich mit dem Phanomen Jazz auseinander. Der erste Teil untersucht die geschichtliche Entwicklung des Jazz und gibt eine genaue Darstellung der afroamerikanischen Musik im sozialen und kulturhistorischen Kontext. Parallel dazu wird die Geschichte der afroamerikanischen Bevolkerung erzahlt, von der Zeit der Sklaverei bis zu den Aufstanden in den 60er Jahren. Somit entsteht ein Zusammenhang zwischen der eigentlichen Geschichte des Volkes und der Musikgeschichte, zwischen den sozialen Problemen der Afroamerikaner und der Entwicklung musikalischer Ausdrucksformen wie Ragtime, Rhythm and Blues, Gospel Music, Free Jazz usw. Der zweite Teil stellt die grossen Personlichkeiten des Jazz vor: Sidney Bechet, Fletcher Henderson, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman, Count Basie, Dizzy Gillespie ...
