This
new collection is
bookended by beguiling
and moderately easy works
by two of
Britain’s most
distinguished composers
of light music, Peter
Hope and Jim Parker,
whose music has been
heard by millions of
listeners and viewers.
Sandwiched between these
are several no less
attractive concert
pieces, including an
evocation of the night
sky in East Anglia, a
gentle meditative view
from a college window,
and some finger-testing
sparklers to entertain
and test the virtuoso
player’s
technique.

The
opening movement is a
free fantasia,
contrasting with the
middle movement, a
scherzetto, in homage to,
and based on the letters
of the name of, the
composer Douglas Steele,
an assistant to Sir
Thomas Beecham and a
founding father of
Chethams School, and
which quotes from
Steele’s beautiful
carol The Snow
Falls. Divertimento
was first performed by
John Turner and Janet
Simpson at a concert in
aid of the Peter
Cunningham Memorial Fund
at Mellor Church on 17th
January 2005. It uses
both treble and descant
instruments. The second
movement was originally
composed for a concert in
Manchester Cathedral in
memory of Douglas Steele,
one of the founding
fathers of Chetham's
School, and quotes (by
kind permission of
Forsyth Brothers Ltd.),
from his well-known carol
The Snow Falls. It has
been separately recorded
by John Turner and
Stephen Hough on Autumn
Sequence – the
music of Douglas Steele
and his Circle (Campion
Cameo 2040/41). Martin
Bussey was born in London
in 1958. He was a Choral
Scholar at King’s
College, Cambridge,
during which time he
studied composition with
Robin Holloway. Following
postgraduate singing
study at the RNCM he
settled in Manchester and
held a number of posts,
including Head of
Academic Music and
Director of Choirs at
Chetham’s School
of Music until 2013. He
continues as Musical
Director of the Chester
Bach Singers, a Vocal
Tutor at Manchester
University, Chairman of
the Finzi Friends and a
Director of the Ludlow
Song Weekend.
Compositions include the
highly successful
monodrama about Mary I,
Mary’s Hand,
premiered in 2018; a
significant collection of
solo songs which includes
settings of Housman,
Hardy, and Walt Whitman,
many recorded on the disc
Through a glass; and much
choral music, recorded by
Sonoro under Neil Ferris
in 2019.
