A chance remark about ballet in a meeting at the radio station the other day reminded me that this year marks the 50th anniversary of the death of Stravinsky, who was credited with composing some of the most challenging ballet music of the 20th Century. His trilogy of Diaghilev commissions: The Firebird, Petrushka, and The Rite of Spring, were as ground-breaking for the art form as Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake had been in 1876, the first time an exclusively symphonic composer had written a score for ballet. You can hear music from two of them, Firebird Suite no 2 and The Rite Of Spring in Krystal Li’s Sunday Special on the 11th of March.

Suitably inspired, follow that up at the end of the month with Ray Lemond’s Music of the Dance, which features works by Adam, Maxwell-Davies, Alwyn and Turina, and while we’re on the subject, don’t forget that the Australian Ballet and its new artistic director David Hallberg are launching their 2021 season this month with Yuri Possokhov’s Anna Karenina and Alexei Ratmansky’s Harlequinade! david.ogilvie@finemusicsydney.com

Arthur Benjamin, a serious musician

Paul Cooke looks beyond the Rumba

The musical world seemed to be Arthur Benjamin’s for the taking as pianist, composer, conductor and teacher. Born in Sydney in 1893, Benjamin grew up in Brisbane and attended Brisbane Grammar School, where he won a scholarship to attend the Royal College of Music in London. There, he studied composition with Charles Villiers Stanford, and his close friends included Herbert Howells, Arthur Bliss, Ivor Gurney and Leon Goossens. Members of this coterie enjoyed London’s cultural life, attending ballets and operas produced by Diaghilev and being most impressed by The Firebird. Benjamin was witty and urbane: Howells, whose Piano concerto No 1 was performed by Benjamin, remarked that he “could sustain [conversation] in three languages, of which ‘Australian’ was not one”; Michael Hurd, in his biography of Gurney, wrote that Benjamin was “relatively wealthy” and “directed his engaging talents with extraordinary skill and made money out of music”.

Britten’s Holiday Tales (1934) was dedicated to, and reflected, Benjamin’s own stylistic traits. But Britten’s rising star meant that Benjamin’s operatic endeavours tended to be overshadowed: it was difficult to compete with such as Peter Grimes. Matheson, for his part, encouraged Benjamin to try his hand at scoring music for films: his first was The Scarlet Pimpernel (1934) and nine more followed by the decade’s end.

After the end of the First World War, he accepted the position of Professor of Pianoforte at the Sydney Conservatorium but stayed for only a couple of years. In 1921, now back in England, he advanced his standing in his various disciplines. As pianist, intensive practice led to his first concert appearance in London in 1925; as composer, his first published work, a Pastoral Fantasy for string quartet, won a Carnegie Award intended to ‘encourage the publication of large scale British musical works’; but it was as a teacher that his reputation flourished.

Benjamin visited Australia, Canada and the West Indies as adjudicator and examiner, exposing him to the Caribbean music that he would use most notably in his Jamaican Rumba. It is the composition for which he is best remembered: one that brought him popular acclaim, but also led to him being critically dismissed.

Seeking new challenges, Benjamin moved to Canada in 1938 and stayed there for the duration of the Second World War. He was appointed conductor of the newly created Canadian Broadcasting Corporation Symphony Orchestra and, in the words of Jean Coulthard, Benjamin “began to perform new music — both international and home grown. He organized the now famous ‘Proms Concerts’ of Vancouver and did his utmost to stimulate young composers”.

During this time, Benjamin also completed several significant compositions, including his Symphony No 1. A sombre introduction is followed by violent drumbeats, which herald a dark mood that predominates throughout.

Mátyás Seiber noted that “its intensely dramatic, at times violent character reflected, in the composer’s own opinion, the atmosphere of the war years”. An appropriate way to remember a talented and eclectic musician.

In 1926, Benjamin returned to his alma mater as a member of staff. Benjamin Britten, Muir Matheson and Australians Peggy Granville-Hicks and Miriam Hyde were among his piano students at RCM. Benjamin guided Britten ‘very gently through a very, very difficult musical adolescence’ as the latter realised that his gifts as a pianist were as accompanist rather than soloist.

In Conversation with Kathryn S Mona Omar talks to the Artistic Director of the Australian Festival of Chamber Music

You have managed three festivals during your time as Artistic Director. What’s been your vision for them?

My vision was always to push the programming in a few different directions but to have artists coming to the festival who could add to those dimensions and integrate them with amazing expertise. Being such a large chamber festival, there are many musical relationships to plan, and right from the start, I aimed as high as I could in terms of which artists to invite. I also wanted to increase the number of international artists performing so that there were more opportunities to create new collaborations between them and Australian musicians.

Given how far away Australia is, those opportunities don’t arise too often, and I’ve always felt that from both sides, this has been such an important part of coming together for all AFCM musicians. Building relationships between artists is so fundamental and many are still in contact with each other years later, which makes me happy. I also wanted to create lasting memories for our audiences so that the festivals they’ve attended stay with them long after they are over.

It’s also crucial to any festival that it continues to grow and develop, so my ultimate vision was to be the best caretaker I could be during those years.

You have curated and produced several festivals internationally. How did you find the experience of curating a festival in Australia, given our geographical isolation?

I’ve absolutely loved being so involved with Australian musicians and although it’s true you are very far away, given that we can all communicate in real time at any time of day or night, staying in touch is no issue. It has been especially rewarding to discover not only so many more wonderful musicians but also to expand my own personal knowledge of Australian music and culture. I never had any problem persuading international artists to come to Australia and for many that has been a dream come true. I’ve always considered it to be a privilege to have this fantastic opportunity to immerse myself in the musical scene of another country and the responsibility of directing AFCM as a non-Aussie has been immense! I’ve enjoyed it thoroughly and will miss it.

A predominant theme in your career and the festivals is connection. How challenging was it developing a sense of connection with the musicians and audience in your online festival last year?

I think overall that thoughts of connecting through musical experiences have surfaced more and more over the years. On a day-to-day basis it comes as second nature to most musicians, but sometimes we need to share that on a wider platform. The AFCM Online Festival was the brainchild of our Marketing Manager Sheridan Helft, and served to keep the AFCM family connected during the very dark early days of the pandemic. Given that we had all been working towards the live festival with tickets already on sale, and my own promotional trip to Australia, going online was a whole new experience for us. Initially we were all relieved the Festival was postponed to 2021 and not cancelled entirely, but it suddenly became clear there would be a very long gap with no sign of life from AFCM.

The festival celebrates its 30th anniversary this year. What are some of the highlights of the upcoming season?

Yes, it’s still our anniversary and we’re not going to miss this opportunity to celebrate such a wonderful milestone! I’m particularly excited about our commissions this year, one of which is AFCM’s present to the Goldner String Quartet celebrating their 25th anniversary. Let’s not forget Beethoven who missed out on his 250th anniversary year, so it’s thrilling to have asked 25 Australian composers to each write a super-short variation on Ode to Joy for the Goldners. I’ve seen most of these and this is going to be sensational! Yorta Yorta composer Deborah Cheetham makes her Festival debut and has written a work paying tribute to the land on which the Festival takes place. She will perform this with David Greco and the Goldners in our opening concert. These are just a few highlights, but the main highlight is that the Festival is taking place!

Sadly, it is impossible to bring out the international artists this year, but what an amazing line-up of Australian musicians! The scale of the Festival is still mighty, and as always will be a real feast. There are over 110 fantastic pieces of music to enjoy, providing comfort from our much-loved chamber works to the exhilaration of new discoveries.

This festival will be your last as Artistic Director what’s next for you?

Next will be navigating my return into a life free of COVID restrictions. I cannot wait!

The chameleon of the 20th Century Krystal Li explores the musical ‘adaptations’ of Stravinsky

In 1909, the impresario Sergei Diaghilev was among the audience of a concert in Saint Petersburg when two new works were premiered: Scherzo fantastique and Feu d’artifice. Diaghilev was on the verge of launching the Ballet Russes in Paris and had been on the hunt for emerging gifted composers.

That night, he discovered Igor Stravinsky, who was then put to work orchestrating some of Chopin’s music for the ballet Les Sylphides. Meanwhile, Diaghilev was planning a stunning Russian ballet, The Firebird, for the 1910 season. Combining the Slavic folk legend of the firebird with the Russian tale of evil Koschei the Deathless, it was intended to capture the imaginations of French audiences who were gaining interest in Russian music.

After many composers had turned down the project, Diaghilev chose to take a chance on Stravinsky.

Armed with musical themes borrowed from his composition teacher Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, and displaying a similar level of orchestral prowess, Stravinsky worked hard to prove his merit.

The music of The Firebird was something to behold.

Before the ballet’s premiere on 25 June, Diaghilev remarked: “Mark him well. He is a man on the eve of celebrity”.

Overnight, the newcomer transformed into a phenomenon in everyone’s mind. Stravinsky would go on to become one of the most influential composers of the 20th century, not simply for his ballet success, but for his commitment to the craft of composition. The Romantic sound of his early ballets paved the way for a more abrasive, modern and yet still nationalistic body of work, beginning in 1913 with The Rite of Spring, for which Stravinsky assembled a range of folk melodies, all connected to pagan rituals and emphasising spring. The folkish nature of this ‘peasant’ music had no choice but to merge with the avant-garde, in what the composer would later call “a kind of apotheosis of Russian rural music”.

Very few composers have had

Stravinsky’s musical trajectory – his legacy of works boasts a wide range of styles, influences and traits.

Stravinsky’s time in Paris brought him closer to different musical personalities, in particular the key figure of Claude Debussy. Their sound worlds never seemed to intersect, even though they were both fascinated by each other’s music. Stravinsky wrote Symphonies of Wind Instruments in 1920, and dedicated it to Debussy, who had died in 1918.

This was among the many works that marked his neo-classical phase, and it was during this period that Stravinsky considered he had undergone significant evolution. His shifting style played out alongside his movement around the world and across many residences, in France, Switzerland and the USA. However, by the end of 1939 he finally emigrated to the US, soon forging a connection with Robert Craft, a young Juilliard graduate who was eager to follow, and ultimately befriend the composer. Craft guided Stravinsky through the English-speaking world as the composer embarked on his first English opera, The Rake’s Progress.

Stravinsky’s neo-classical period reached its peak with this opera, which featured a libretto by W.H. Auden and was inspired by a series of paintings displayed at a Hogarth exhibition.

Very few composers have had Stravinsky’s musical trajectory – his legacy of works boasts a wide range of styles, influences and traits. He was constantly uprooting himself. Though his initial works were grounded in his Russian origins, when one moves around as often as he did, flexibility, curiosity and artistic integrity are what matter.

Music for the Darkness Nicky Gluch illuminates Haydn’s Seven Last Words

Photo - VJP / Alamy Stock Photo

Composing this intervallic music was Haydn’s task.

It was not without challenge, for the tempo of the music was requested to be slow, and Haydn was concerned that the congregation would fatigue at listening to seven adagios. To achieve variety, he thus took inspiration from the seven utterances, allowing their individual rhythms to shape the thematic material of each musical response.

God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness Light. In a modern-day city, it is something we have in abundance, streaming out of windows and streetlamps, the roads lit up by cars at night. It is darkness which has become elusive, and yet it is darkness which is the more natural state, that which preceded everything, and to which we ultimately return.

‘Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do’.

This first utterance is cast in B-flat major. It is lyrical and plaintive, a representation of Jesus’ plea to God. ‘Today you will be with me in paradise’ is heart wrenching. It is what Jesus says to the man being crucified beside him, and the music, in C minor, thus mourns.

The music of Easter, be one religious or not, offers an opportunity to contemplate not only the relationship between lamentation and exultation, but that between darkness and light. In the lead up to Good Friday, one can attend the remarkable service of Tenebrae where a series of psalms is sung, and 14 candles are successively extinguished. When all but one remains, and the church is in almost total darkness, the choir sings Benedictus; then the last candle is hidden and strepitus, or cacophony, ensues. The world has returned to the state before Creation.

‘Woman, behold, your son’ is warm and tender.

In E major, it represents Jesus’ comforting of his mother, entrusting one of his disciples into her care, that she may still have a son on earth.

‘My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?’.

These downtrodden words (taken from Psalm 22) are matched with anguished sound in the only movement that remains in a minor key.

Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep…

Joseph Haydn’s The Seven Last Words of Our Saviour on the Cross was a piece written for this darkness. It was commissioned by a priest of the Oratorio de la Santa Cueva, an underground church in Cadíz, Spain. Lest the white walls be too reflective, on Good Friday the church was draped with black cloth so that the only light came from the lamp hanging in the centre of the roof. The service was incredibly meditative, the priest sequentially reciting the seven last words (more aptly, sentences) of Jesus Christ, the interval between each being filled with music.

‘I thirst’ mocks with drop-like pizzicato, whilst ‘It is finished’ is built off a simple four-note theme.

It sings, however, in its solemnity, leading to the final utterance ‘Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit’.

The muted strings evoke a life slipping away, and yet the music is sweet, Jesus accepting of his fate and God’s protection.

With Jesus’ death, the light that God created is extinguished. The earth trembles in a quake, grief not a mourning but a fragmentation.

12:00 URBAN JAZZ LOUNGE With Leita Hutchings New, hip, fun and traditional jazz: tons of cool jazz, presented in a chilled and laid-back, lounge style 13:00 OPERA IN MINIATURE Prepared by James Nightingale

Stravinsky, I. Mavra. Opera in one act.

Libretto by Boris Kochno after Pushkin. First performed Paris, 1922.

PARASHA: Lyudmila Belobragina, sop HUSSAR: Nicolai Gutorovich, ten MOTHER: Anna Matyushina, cont NEIGHBOUR: Nina Postavnicheva, mezz Moscow RSO/Gennady Rozhdestvensky.

DG 00289 479 5176 30 In the small Russian town of Kolomna at the beginning of the 19th century, Parasha sits with her needlework thinking of her lover, a handsome Hussar, who suddenly appears at the window. They lament their difficulty in meeting. Parasha has an idea. Her mother’s cook has died and she is unable to find a new one, even though the neighbours are helping in the search. Parasha suggests that the Hussar disguise himself as a woman, and she will hire him as the cook. The plan succeeds until one day, Parasha’s mother opens the kitchen door and finds the cook shaving. A neighbour runs in raising a hue and cry. The Hussar jumps out of the window and runs off with Parasha in pursuit. The conclusion of the opera is that she must have found him as neither of them has returned.

Rimsky-Korsakov, N. Mozart and Salieri, op 48. Musical drama in two scenes. Libretto by the composer after Pushkin. First performed Moscow, 1898.

SALIERI: Pavel Gerdjikov, bar MOZART: Avram Andreev, ten Bulgarian National Choir; Raina Manolova, vn; Teodor Moussev, pf; Bulgarian National RSO/ Stoyan Angelov.

Fidelio 1827 45 The composer, Antonio Salieri broods over the contrast between his long struggle as a composer and the effortless genius of Mozart.

A meeting with Mozart intensifies his jealousy, seeing Mozart’s frivolity. Salieri invites Mozart to dinner and gives him poisoned wine. Mozart tells of a stranger’s commission to write a requiem and plays some to Salieri, who is moved. Still unrepentant, he is disturbed as Mozart leaves, remarking that genius and evil are incompatible.

After the Nightingale welcomes the audience, two men, Good Hope and Loyal Friend, led by a Crow and a Jackdaw, encounter a Wren. Wren calls down the King of the Birds, Hoopoe, who laments that the birds no longer have a kingdom of their own. Loyal Friend proposes a solution: that the birds build a citadel between the gods above and men below and impose a tax upon the smoke of the sacrifices that nourish the gods. The Nightingale calls all the birds together and, at first, they attack the two men but, after Hoopoe gets them to listen to Loyal Friend, the birds are galvanised by the idea of a new home and set to work building their citadel.

When built, the splendid citadel is visited by Prometheus, who warns the birds not to go against the will of Zeus and to abandon their folly. Instead of following his advice, the birds prepare for war but when a terrible storm falls down upon them, the citadel is destroyed and the birds forced to beg forgiveness from the omnipotent Zeus. Loyal Friend and Good Hope return to the world of men, changed by their experiences with the birds.

Decca 466 060-2 2:34 Patricio and Celemin arrive at the marketplace hoping to see Dolores, who serves in Gaspara’s inn. Gaspara’s godson, Lazaro, a student priest, is in love with Dolores. Patricio, also in love with Dolores, has paid for a fiesta in her honour. Celemin gossips about Dolores’ past love affair with Melchor. Festive crowds arrive, including Sergeant Rojas who joins them at the table. When Dolores brings them wine, Rojas is instantly smitten. Melchor quarrels with Dolores until he is interrupted by the start of the fiesta. Taking a guitar, he sings an insulting song about Dolores, causing her much distress. Patricio quickly calls for more music and all dance the jota. Melchor boasts to the three suitors that he has been Dolores’ lover. The suitors retreat when she appears.

After an angry scene, Dolores agrees to see Melchor at ten that night to talk peace. She then learns from Patricio that Melchor has revealed her past. Feigning laughter and saying that it is a lie, she invites Patricio to call on her at ten that night, an invitation that she also offers separately to Celemin and Rojas. Lazaro tells Dolores that he is leaving the next day and confesses his love. Celemin overhears and calls out to everyone to come to listen. Lazaro, infuriated, threatens Celemin.

Later, when Lazaro heroically saves the life of the foolish Rojas in the bullring, Dolores asks Lazaro to come to her room at ten o’clock.

When he arrives, they fall into each other’s arms. Saying farewell, she urges him to leave quickly for the seminary. When Melchor enters, she rebuffs him and he becomes violent. Lazaro rushes back and they fight.

By the time the others arrive in response to Dolores’ screams, Melchor lies dead.

Pinchgut Opera PG003 2:19 Two brothers have the same mother, but different fathers: Castor is mortal and Pollux immortal. Castor is in love with the beautiful princess, Telaira who loves him but is engaged to Pollux. Telaira’s wicked sister, Phoebe also loves Castor. Pollux offers Telaira to Castor but Castor dies defending her from a kidnapping organised by Phoebe. Phoebe offers to bring Castor back to life if Telaira renounces him but Pollux goes to his father Jupiter for help.

Pollux takes the reluctant Castor’s place in the Underworld. However, Jupiter pleased with the loyalty of Pollux, releases him from Hades, gives Castor and Telaira immortality and sends Phoebe to Hades.

Opera in two parts. Libretto by F.S. Procházka and others after Svaopluk Cech. First performed Prague, 1920.

On his way home from a night at the inn, Mr Broucek finds himself transported to the moon, where he meets a strange collection of mathematicians, painters, musicians and poets, most of whom have counterparts in his terrestrial existence, including the poet Azurean, who resembles Mazal, his nonpaying poet tenant, and his betrothed, Etherea, who resembles Mazal’s earthly sweetheart Malinka, with whom he had been quarrelling.

Etherea falls in love with Broucek. When he discovers that they live on dew, he is glad to find himself back in Prague, where Mazal and Malinka make up their quarrel. After another night at the inn, Broucek falls into an underground passage and is transported back to the 15th century, where he is arrested as a spy, but is taken under the protection of a citizen, Domsik. After a battle defending the Hussites, in which Domsik is killed, Broucek is accused of cowardice and is about to be burned. He wakes up back in the Prague of his own time, ready to boast about his exploits in saving the city.

Opera Rara ORC 1 2:37 The Princess Bianca of Aquitaine is betrothed to the young king of France, Louis V. She, in fact, loves Hugues Capet, Count of Paris, who is regent until Louis comes of age. Bianca tells her sister, Adelia, that she wants to call off the marriage and return to her sick mother.

The king, suspecting a relationship between Hugues and Bianca demands to know why she is refusing to marry him and sends for Hugues.

He accuses them of being lovers. Hugues denies it saying he loves another, but will not reveal who it is and is immediately imprisoned.

Knights and soldiers arrive at his prison cell to tell him that France stands behind him against the king. With the battle over, Hugues tells Louis that he has no designs on either the throne or Bianca, that it is Adelia that he loves. The king gives permission for their immediate marriage. Learning this, Bianca, in a jealous rage, vows revenge. As the wedding ceremony begins Bianca drinks poison, telling the horrified assembly that her death is her revenge.

Volunteer Spotlight Chris Wetherall

Pamela Newling speaks with presenter and keen traveller, Chris Wetherall Chris Wetherall’s Jazz Pulse program live on Mondays at 7.00pm is an invitation to listeners to relax and enjoy the evening. His smooth English tones and easy manner make him a natural, but he expresses gratitude to his mentor and trainer, Jeannie McInnes, for her immense patience getting him started five years ago. Like many Fine Music volunteers, Chris had been a listener for at least 20 years. and, he says, “with rising frequency as ABC Classic FM became increasingly dumbed down”.

Music has always been part of Chris’s life. His Dad, whom he describes as Mainstream and earlier, played lots of jazz. He says: “In the jazz culture wars of the 50s and 60s he would have been in the traditionalists’ camp with the ‘mouldy figs’, as the be-boppers called them... I guess Armstrong, Goodman, Basie and Ellington just rubbed off on me. He describes an inspired moment, when in his early teens his Dad began taking him along to Ellington concerts in and around London… magic times indeed.

Each one-hour program takes about three hours to prepare and write. Chris describes the challenges as breath control, sound levels and balance. Keeping it interesting is another challenge. He says: “Jazz people can be quite off-putting to outsiders”, and quotes Lee Konitz’s comment, “spontaneity takes a lot of preparation”.

Chris goes on to say that he knocked over Ben Webster’s coffee when still at school — “so nice about it, I have his autograph still”. He treasures a friendship with Oscar’s drummer, Ed Thigpen, who even took his drum kit over to a party at Chris’s flat.

Chris says: “the buzz of the station is one of the most enjoyable aspects of involvement with Fine Music – much missed during COVID. Easing of restrictions is so very welcome.”

Chris says he is beyond grateful to his wife, Patricia, who has walked this musical journey with him for 50+ years and remains his keenest critic each Monday for Jazz Pulse.

Working life involved corporate and self-employment in business in a variety of fields related to fashion, perfume, cosmetics and luxury goods. Retirement has provided more time to concentrate on music and other interests.

The return of live music is a relief and Chris enjoys the recent opportunity to go back to the City Recital Hall, particularly for small-scale chamber music. He says he tends to go classical in the mornings, jazz at sundown.

Most played at home is Be-bop.

Pre-COVID, travel was a favourite pastime.

Throughout his programs Chris references overseas jazz venues he’s attended. He says: “Outstanding performance moments would include the London scene in the 70s – Getz, the MJQ, the Duke and the Count; four years living in Copenhagen - so the Montmartre Club with Chet, Oscar and others; and many gigs in New York City when employed by an American company.”

The Themes of Fine Jazz on Fine Music Sydney Keith Pettigrew explores the magic behind our jazz presenters’ theme tunes Fine Music Sydney is the original FM radio station, broadcasting for over 45 years. Fine Jazz has been part of that picture all the way along, even with the parallel digital broadcasting. Each of our jazz presenters has their own delights from the 120-year history of jazz: 1900s classics; swing; post-war bebop; 60s cool; bossa nova; jazz from 21st century pop; jazz across the planet; and emergent jazz for tomorrow. This article concludes the short series on the magic of jazz, expressed by presenters’ theme tunes.

Classic Jazz and Ragtime – Sundays at midday with Dave Mac

Friday Jazz Session – Fridays at 7:00pm with Alex Siegers

Theme: Petite Fleur (Sidney Bechet 1952)

Theme: The New Message (Donald Byrd), Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers, 1956

Petite Fleur was written by Sidney Bechet in 1952 after he had moved to France. This followed struggles to make music in the US, opening a tailor’s shop that became a hangout for jazz musicians, having contractual restrictions placed on his performing, and a very successful appearance at the 1950 Paris Jazz Fair. He was one of the very first jazz soloists to emerge from the big band era, even before Louis Armstrong made it a norm.

The tune became hugely successful as an international hit in 1959 by UK’s Monty Sunshine and the Chris Barber’s Jazz Band. It was extremely popular in the US and Sweden, and subsequently recorded by Bob Crosby. Lyrics were added, and it became a hit in France by Danielle Darrieux. Petula Clark had a UK hit in 1964, but in French; it has not been recorded in English. It was popular at the cusp of changing musical tastes with the emergence of the Skiffle era and an interesting new band The Quarrymen, who became The Beatles.

Interestingly, the Bechet recording of 1952 was at the beginning of the hi-fi era, perhaps the last of the greatest stars of early authentic New Orleans Jazz. It is a supreme example of that style using quality recording techniques, reflective of other musicians who feature on this program: Bunk Johnston, Louis Armstrong, Alberta Hunter and Duke Ellington.

The tune is from Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers album Drum Suite. This has been described by critics as ‘a lost masterpiece’, with particular reference to The New Message. It was only released as a bonus track on the 2005 re-release of the album, although originally recorded in 1956-57. This music sat on a reel at Columbia for nearly 50 years before it was released to the public. For something which is so incredibly catchy, topping and tailing every episode of Friday Jazz Sessions as the theme tune, seems only fair to make up for all that lost time.

Art Blakey was a drummer and bandleader who, with pianist and composer Horace Silver, formed the Jazz Messengers in the mid-1950s after working with renowned bebop musicians, including Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie. His approach was always to encourage young musicians and it became known as an incubator for young talent, featuring such greats as Wayne Shorter, Chick Corea, Keith Jarrett and Wynton Marsalis. The band has been described as the archetypal hard bop group.

Even though this tune is relatively unknown, the opening head conveys a sense of the familiar. It is so steeped in jazz idiom that it is simultaneously known and brand new.

Jazz in Conversation: Saxophonist Matt Keegan Barry O’Sullivan talks to Matt Keegan about his 20 years in the world of music

The saxophonist Matt Keegan regularly performs throughout Australia and around the world. He has appeared on over fifty albums as a recording artist and is a featured soloist for many well-known groups both past and present. He has performed at music festivals and venues across the globe.

His latest musical project, Vienna Dreaming, was initially inspired after he read the family tree researched by his aunt. She suggested to Matt that he attempt to create music with inspiration from the family history around his great grandfather Heini Portnoj, a Jewish musician refugee who fled from Vienna in 1938, leaving behind many of his friends and family. Portnoj found refuge in Australia where he eventually had a long and successful career as a pianist, conductor and opera singing teacher.

Among Pornoj’s students was the legendary soprano Joan Carden. offered the opportunity to be one of the Artists-inResidence at Bundanon, the former home of painter Arthur Boyd on the NSW South Coast.

Keegan won the prestigious MCA/Freedman Fellowship for Jazz in 2011 and has been composing and arranging music for over twenty years. He has written over 70 compositions which feature on a variety of albums, including Elysium and Cold Soul, which were commissioned for Fine Music Sydney’s Artists in Residence ensemble, Elysian Fields, led by Jenny Erickson.

“Having time at the Musicians cottage at Bundanon was critical,” Keegan says. “It gave me time to think about what parts of the story I wanted to focus on and what interested me... I took my clarinet or my sax and went for a walk each day in the forest and just let the music flow and wrote down the ideas. I guess I was visualising the story, like a movie in my mind.”

Erickson taught Keegan music at the International Grammar School in Sydney, and later in high school as choirmaster. Matt is currently a member of her crossover chamber jazz ensemble Elysian Fields. He went on to receive a Bachelor of Music with First Class Honours and a Master of Music (Performance) from the Sydney Conservatorium and is currently completing his doctorate at UNSW supervised by John Napier and Dr. Sandy Evans.

A studio recording of an elegant suite of electro-acoustic salon music was created by Keegan and engineered by Richard Belkner at the Free Energy Device Studios in Sydney. Released in 2018 it was received well by critics and gained multiple airplays around Australia. But Keegan resisted a live performance of the work until the team from the Sydney Improvised Music Association (SIMA) encouraged him to perform it for their JazzNOW Summer Program at Mary’s Underground.

The creation of the music for Vienna Dreaming began life more than five years ago when Keegan was

“I said to them if I am going to do this, I need some confidence. I need the universe to let me know everything is going to be all right,” says Keegan. “The date they gave me, February 28, 2021, turned out to be my late grandmother’s 100th birthday!”

The universe had spoken!

Why Fine Music Jazz Is Cool Leita Hutchings presents Part 6 in the Why Jazz Is Cool series

There are so many reasons Why Fine Music Jazz is Cool. There’s something about this place, a synergy, a magical fusion of energies, an explosion of talent and enthusiasm. So, I asked the questions: Why is Fine Music Sydney Jazz so cool and why are our jazz presenters so cool?

ALEX SIEGERS, Friday Jazz Session

XAVIER BICHON, Planet Jazz

Is Jazz cool because its musicians are so unflappable, rolling with the punches, winging it, making it up on the fly? ‘Cos of the long history with all things illicit? Speakeasies, trouble with the law, promiscuity, adultery, drugs, alcohol, protests, and civil rights activism?

Jazz is cool because it can put you in a Sentimental Mood when you feel some Kind of Blue.

I only recently joined the Fine Music Jazz team and can confidently say it isn’t any of these things that makes our jazz so magnetic. It’s the indulgence, the commitment to self-expression, the obsession required to create art and the pleasure it brings to performers and audiences alike. It’s the curiosity, the desire to reinvent, to feel something different, be something different, and to open minds. It’s the emotion, the elation fine jazz brings players and listeners, how Strange Fruit can make you weep, how Benny Goodman makes you tap your feet, and how calm washes over you when you listen to Miles Davis. These things, in abundance, are the things that make Fine Music Jazz so cool.

KEITH PETTIGREW, Emergent Jazz Jazz is cool, awesome, popular, nice – a state of composure, removed from the mainstream, unconventional. Overwhelmingly, it’s attitude. Jazz has always been a bit left-of-field, running its own trajectory outside mainstream music; cool pastels to fiery reds. We present the full range of jazz styles.

Jazz. Is. Just. Cool. And Fine Jazz on Fine Music Sydney, is cooler still. You know Jazz is played all over the world? From the Equator to the Poles, from East to West, from coast to coast; need I say more?

Jazz is about freedom of expression – spontaneous and limitless.

Jazz is never fancy or complicated on the surface, it seems both easy and alluring.

Jazz is the embodiment of the cultural idea of cool; you know it when you hear it. Some of the coolest jazz music ever made was when Miles Davis improvised in 1957 the splendid score for Ascenseur pour l’échafaud (Lift to the Scaffold) by French director Louis Malle. What a gem!

GAIL MONJO, Jazz After Hours Cool is a word from the 1930s meaning ‘intensely good’. Jazz is timeless and ever-morphing into new directions. Just listen to Jazz Sketches with Robert Vale, and Keith’s program Emergent Jazz. Why is it, that so many singers cover the great songs that came from the jazz songbook? Because they are sublime and beautiful and faultless; and either fun as heck, or heartbreaking to perform.

FRANK PRESLEY, The New Jazz Standard

SUE JOWELL, Jazz After Hours

It’s likely that the term ‘cool’ emerged from the jazz tradition as a way of labelling less frenetic or ‘hot’ jazz as it was then described. It’s also likely that the sax hipster Lester Young, wearing a pork pie hat and with a smouldering cigarette parked among the struts of his saxophone, first coined the term ‘cool’. Nicknamed ‘Pres’, he forever embedded into the vernacular a way of describing anything that’s extra good. That’s how I would describe Fine Music’s jazz and its presenters. If you want proof, check out Lloyd Capps and The Jazz Beat Tuesday nights at 7pm.

Watch the movie Society. The songs and lyrics by Cole Porter in the film illustrate every aspect of Jazz, ballads, love songs, Dixieland, and Trad; it’s all there. The chemistry between the stars is magical and the material Porter wrote for them, sublime.

DAVID McFARLANE, Class Jazz and Ragtime If you’re feeling too hot, Jazz will cool you down. If you’re feeling too cold; Jazz will warm you up.

Jazz is cool because listening to fine jazz is the ideal way to chill out.

ROBERT VALE, Jazz Sketches

Jazz helps you relax; it can make you want to dance; it energises your toes.

Cool is closely associated with Miles Davis’ 1949 landmark album Birth of the Cool. Over time it became one of the half dozen or so recognized, historical jazz categories. That’s what ‘cool jazz’ is to me.

Jazz is perfect for a romantic assignation or just having a good time with friends; there is a style of jazz to suit every mood and social occasion, and Jazz goes very well with every type of food and wine.

CD REVIEWS Johannes Brahms: Music for Clarinet and Piano Lloyd Van’t Hoff & Peter de Jager lloydvanthoff.com

COVID projects are to be commended; with musicians finding ways not to despair in the face of cancelled concerts and great uncertainty regarding when they’d be permitted to perform together.

Clarinettist Lloyd Van’t Hoff, who came to prominence as the 2015 ABC Symphony Australia Young Performer of the Year, was meant to spend 2020 touring the country with Arcadia Winds.

Instead, with his schedule cleared, he collaborated with pianist Peter de Jager to record Brahms’ glorious works for clarinet and piano. That this is a passion project is evident from the liner notes which provide the musicians’ personal

reflections on Brahms’ music. The recording is similarly intimate, Van’t Hoff and de Jager sounding as if they could be performing in your own living room.

If this were a live broadcast, it would thus be most pleasing but as a mastered recording, I want something that repays repeat listening. That the musicians have fantastic technical capacity is without question, and Brahms’ music is well honoured by their performance.

But there’s something missing, some extramusical element, which would have me coming back for more.

All At Once

The Pocket Trio Independent

This debut recording is an emotionally charged and musically accomplished testament to the jazz trio. It contains six original compositions and one playful version of Harold Arlen’s Over the Rainbow, in a musical marriage of talent made in heaven. Bouncing and bounding between song form and freedom, this track alone could be the prime exhibit of the trio’s distinctly stimulating groupenergy. Born out of their regular Tuesday night gig, it delivers music that is never repetitive or stale. Their easy-going jamming seems to belie the fact that they are a relatively newly formed combo,

bringing a raft of influences from the jazz canon of Oscar Peterson and Bill Charlap to Ahmad Jamal, with subtle trio interplay and articulation. My favourite track, Pocket Dial, is a perfect example of where this trio performs with one voice.

If you close your eyes it’s easy to imagine the close-knit interactions of the band.

The music works so well because of the faultless balance.

Ensemble Q, led by co-artistic directors Trish and Paul Dean, is the chamber group in residence at the Queensland Conservatorium, where this CD was recorded live in 2017. Klaus Simon, who arranged the music for chamber ensemble, is a German musician who has produced editions of works by Mahler and Schoenberg. Mahler is, of course, famous for symphonies of extreme length which call for vast instrumental and sometimes vocal forces. While his Fourth Symphony is noticeably slimmer than the sprawling Third, this arrangement nevertheless comes as something of a revelation.

The employment of only 14 instrumentalists enhances the sense of humanity in the work, which culminates in a song expressing a child’s vision of Heaven, Das himmlische Leben, here sung by Greta Bradman. The symphony progresses towards this song in sections marked with relaxed tempi (adverbs such as moderately, leisurely, peacefully, and comfortably feature) suggesting Mahler’s influence on both the more atomised Webern and (especially in the third movement) the spiritual music of Pärt and Górecki.

CD REVIEWS Camargo Guarnieri: Chôros vol 1 / Seresta

Soloists; Sao Paolo Symphony Orchestra; Isaac Karabtchevsky, conductor NAXOS 8.574197 The wealth of styles of 20th century classical music available on disc continues to expand with this new recording on the Naxos label. Camargo Guarnieri is an important composer in Brazil, a musician who shaped the national musical culture through his compositions, teaching and writing. This recording presents four intriguing works for solo instruments with orchestra: Seresta (piano) and three titled Choro (one each for bassoon, flute and violin). The word choro usually applies to Brazilian street music, but Guarnieri has used the title to denote a concertante work. His music is wonderful in its imaginative soundscape, making use of sustained tonal pedal points and evoking the landscapes of Brazil by incorporating folk idioms, such as melodies reminiscent

Jazzified

James Donald Self Released Available on Bandcamp

When you take an acoustic folk guitarist through a campus jazz course, you get Jazzified. James Donald completed his UNSW Jazz degree and released his album Jazzified last year. He finished his degree falling head-over-heels in love with jazz, whilst realising how complex and emotional it can be. It is a showcase of talent from the UNSW jazz campus, with Donald composing most of the tracks and arranging some standards that range from New Orleans Swing to Jazz Fusion, from French Stan Getz vibes to 1950s Jazz-Pop groups to noir Jazz!

There are three standout tracks. Dave Brubeck’s Take Five is given a fresh lease of life, with Donald’s guitar providing structure behind and interplay with

of sertão and baião and harmonies of caipira folk music. Guarnieri’s music is not in any way a copy of these traditional forms, however; the folk elements are fully incorporated into a musical style that is both personal and evocative.

The performances from the Sao Paolo Symphony Orchestra are vividly engaging and the soloists – Olga Kopylova, piano, Alexandre Silvério, bassoon, Olga Nascimento, flute and Davi Graton, violin – are all superb in this enjoyable and intriguing recording.

- James Nightingale

Greg Stopic’s sax. Cole Porter’s I Love You gets a warm treatment with Donald on guitar and Sarah Homeh’s soulful voice and bass playing. Razzberry Jam is an in-studio jam that emerged from a bunch of chords, through a classic Dorian progression, into a piece of strong improvisation. And there is an innovative voice-over-jazz story about Cluedo’s Mr Black.

A treasure of an album, and a testament to the calibre of the UNSW jazz program.

And James Donald’s new love of jazz.

Variety Hour

Just wanted to say thank you for a particularly good and well-presented Hosanna today. Lovely variety of music, beautifully sung, perfect for the season.

- Peter Jewkes

Jowell in the Crown

Sue Jowell is always wonderful, but yesterday she had the most wonderful ending to Drive: Noel Coward with some of the Carnival of Animals; Danny Kaye’s Little Fiddle (I used to perform as a ‘young bloke’), but best of all was Here’s To The Next Time which is her sign off.

Brilliant.

Love from the Beaver State

Greetings from USA, Oregon! Do you have a newsletter that I may subscribe to? I absolutely love the Ultima Thule programme, especially Mark Kundalini’s productions.

- Robert Plata

Informer

I found Jeannie’s Jazz program today very well put-together - a great mix, and very well informed.

High Society

Please could you let John Hanna know how much I enjoy the monthly organ music programs on Society Spot. He chooses great music and gives interesting background. My father was an organist, so this is always very special for me.
