As a young member of a distinguished musical family, French pianist Robert Casadesus listened to many chamber works being played in his home. His uncles, Henri and Marcel Casadesus, rehearsed there as members of the renowned Capet Quartet founded by Lucien Capet who was later to become Robert’s teacher. Before studying with Capet, Robert studied at the Conservatoire with the Professor of Piano, Louis Diémer, and was the recipient of the Premier Prix in 1913 and the Diémer Prize in 1920.

It is now 50 years since Robert Casadesus died on 19 September 1972 and he may not be recognised by many people today although he was one of the great French pianists of the early to mid-20th century along with his contemporary Alfred CasadesusCortot.often shared the concert platform with Maurice Ravel touring in France, Spain and England. From 1922, he and Ravel worked on a project to create piano rolls of Ravel’s works and Casadesus later recorded Ravel’s complete piano works, for which he was awarded the Grand Prix de l’Académie Charles Cros and the Grand Prix de l’Académie du Disque The year before the piano roll project began, Casadesus married pianist, Gaby L’Hôte. Both had important solo piano careers, but they often appeared together in duo piano or two piano works. Robert and Gaby had three children, one of whom, named Jean, became a pianist. They were known as the ‘First Family of the Piano’, but Jean died in a car accident at the height of his career just a few months before Robert’s death from Leavingillness.France for the United States during World War II, Robert continued his teaching career and held concerts to raise funds for French relief societies. One of his close neighbours was Alfred Einstein and the two played Mozart violin sonatas together in private. After the war, Casadesus returned to Fontainebleau as the Director of the American Conservatory where he had taught before the war.

The reputation of Robert Casadesus rests mainly on his piano virtuosity with a classical and restrained style and a delicate approach to melody and line. The last word comes from David Dubal in The Art of the Piano: “He became the absolute French pianist, his country’s finest. Casadesus embodied the qualities of Gallic balance, unforced sound, style, and precision of technique. His sound was crisp, dry, and sparkling, like a vintage champagne.”

Casadesus was a composer of symphonic, concerted and chamber works but is not wellknown, probably due to the lack of available recordings. He was noted as a great interpreter of the piano works of Mozart and he recorded the concertos with Barbirolli and Szell. He was joined by Gaby and Jean in recording the concertos for two and three pianos conducted by Ormandy. Beethoven’s chamber music held no fears for him. He had an intricate and thorough knowledge of Beethoven’s style and nuances after listening to the many chamber rehearsals in his youth. He recorded the Beethoven Violin Sonatas with Zino Francescatti, with the Kreutzer Sonata being filmed and, in more recent years, released on DVD. His other recordings were of works by Bach and other baroque composers, some of the major Romantics and many French composers.

popularity among the general listening public has never waned – as a small example, the 2MBS library, with no claim to be exhaustive, has 16 different commercial recordings of The lark ascending – and his significance in English musical history remains unchallenged. Nonetheless, there can be little doubt that he has long been out of favour in professional and critical circles. The reasons for this are not difficult to deduce. Having eschewed atonalism and other modernist techniques, Vaughan Williams is seen exclusively as a late Romantic composer, offering little by way of innovation or originality. Worse still, some identify him with a schmaltzy brand of nostalgia for a rustic English paradise – ‘cow-pat music’, one unkind critic called However,it.

12 October 2022 marks the 150th anniversary of the birth of composer Ralph Vaughan Williams, the most important figure of the 20th century English musical Vaughanrenaissance.Williams’

Vaughan Williams was not as onedimensional as his critics would like to make him out to be. For instance, as the son of a clergyman, the composer of much church music and editor of The English Hymnal, he never professed any Christian faith, ultimately lapsing into what his widow called ‘cheerful agnosticism’. Again, it may come as a surprise to learn that a man so closely associated with English tradition and the establishment should have been a lifelong socialist who turned down both a knighthood and the chance to be Master of the King’s Musick

Vaughan Williams was born into an affluent, upper middle-class family in 1872. He had a conventional education at private school and Cambridge, with two spells at the Royal College of Music, either side of university, where he was tutored in composition by Charles Villiers Stanford and Hubert Parry. He was no prodigy and struggled with the constraints of the German school, championed by the RCM with Brahms as its model. Aware of his shortcomings, he went to Berlin to study with Max Bruch, then later to Paris to study with Maurice Ravel (three years his Morejunior).than technical improvement, however, Vaughan Williams was really seeking his own voice in music, and he was to find it in the history of his homeland – in traditional folk song and in Elizabethan and Jacobean music. This paralleled similar developments on the Continent by such diverse composers as Sibelius, Dvorák, Smetana, Bartók and Kodály. Vaughan Williams was to find a kindred spirit in Gustav Holst, whom he met at the RCM in 1895. They remained firm friends until Holst’s death in 1934, and spent much time travelling together throughout England researching and cataloguing traditional songs, many of which had never been written down before.

150 Years On David Brett reviews the life and achievements of an ‘extraordinary, ordinary man’

Similarly, with his music. While his most important legacy will remain his preservation and revival of English folk song, Vaughan Williams, during a career lasting an amazing sixty years, wrote music in a wide variety of styles and genres. Revolutionary it was not, but original and accessible, it spoke directly to ordinary people, as Vaughan Williams intended.

Ralph Vaughan Williams

Sydney as we broadcast 15 special programs from Saturday 3 September

This close involvement with the music of the people combined with Vaughan Williams’ own socialist and humanist beliefs to define his musical philosophy. As he wrote: “The composer must not shut himself up and think of art; he must live with his fellows and make his art an expression of the whole life of the community.”

We are left with a glorious legacy. Nine symphonies, amazingly rich and varied, a wide range of orchestral and chamber works and film music, and the wonderful vocal music – songs, hymns, choral works both secular and religious, and operas, most particularly his labour of forty years, The Pilgrim’s Progress Join us on 2MBS Fine Music to to showcase this legacy and celebrate the life of this “extraordinary, ordinary man.”

The two world wars disrupted his career but were an important influence on his music. Despite already being in his 40s, Vaughan Williams volunteered for military service in 1914 and saw action on the Western Front. His Third Symphony, a masterpiece, was sketched in the fields of Flanders, and his post-war work showed a greater intensity and yearning for peace. In the Second World War, he turned to a new genre, writing scores for propaganda films and then for movies generally. The music continued to flow right up until his death in 1958, with original and imaginative pieces throughout his 70s and early 80s.

Ensemble Offspring presents

Listen Up!

The Listen Up! program will feature a smorgasbord of cross-cultural sonic delights, including several world premieres. Artistic Director Claire Edwardes recently chatted to two of the composers whose world premieres will be featured in the festival: New Zealand’s Karlo Margetic and Melbourne’s Kate Neal. They riffed on the experience of writing for Ensemble Offspring, the pandemic, and being able to finally celebrate live performances again.

6pm & 8pm 11 September, National Art School, Darlinghurst

On Gadigal country this September, Ensemble Offspring’s Listen Up! micro festival will bring together inspirational Australian musicians with a shared passion for treading untrodden paths. Among the impressive line-up will be Yorta Yorta singer/songwriter Allara (Melbourne), star violinist and Ensemble Offspring’s 2022 First Nations Composer in Residence Eric Avery (Ngiyampaa, Yun, Bandjalang and Gumbangirri), award-winning jazz collective Australian Art Orchestra (Melbourne) and of course Sydney’s musical mavericks Ensemble Offspring.

Neal has had a long relationship with Ensemble Offspring having written her first piece for the group back in the early 2000s. The work was commissioned via an APRA Art Music Fund grant and as she tells us, this piece has also been a long time coming, not least because of the pandemic. “Initially”, Kate says, “it was commissioned as a hybrid collaborative work between Berlin based electronic producer Grischa Lichtenberger, Ensemble Offspring, a choreographer, and dancers. During the pandemic, the work evolved into a video work, and after many cancellations and reconfiguring, has its initial premiere as an acoustic concert work. It is my hope and vision that this work will again extend into a hybrid performance work - with future manifestations evolving into a collaborative piece with electronics and dance.”

Karlo Margetic first met Claire when she was soloist with Orchestra Wellington. “Marc Taddei, OW’s music director, introduced us, and I gave Claire a copy of my Xylophone Concerto (a very silly student piece I wrote as an undergraduate), which I was thrilled that she later played with the Northern Beaches Orchestra. Later, when Claire played with Stroma, we hung out and got to know each other. My piece for Listen Up! was a co-commission from US group F-Plus Trio, Strome Ensemble (New Zealand) and Ensemble Offspring, and the Sydney premiere will be the first one after all the various COVID postponements around the world.”

As a launching place for her new work Wound, Kate Neal has taken the idea of interweaving threads of cellular material: “The work looks at slowly evolving and repeating motives which unravel, travel, wind, unwind, and interweave in textural evolutions to create a kind of woollen jumper, wrap or covering. The work speaks to the form of an etude – a series of works looking specifically and in detail at a particular type of thread. Much like our own lives, the threads of which travel and unravel into ever circular states of forward and backward motion, the piece is organic and intertwining.”

Listen Up! is a unique opportunity for Ensemble Offspring to bring together leading artists from a variety of musical backgrounds to celebrate their shared passion for living new music on Gadigal country. We live in a time of immense musical diversity, and in curating this micro-festival we are showcasing it all: the youthful energy of innovative emerging composers, the craftsmanship of living modernist legends, and the raw spirituality of First Nations voices. It’s the type of inclusive and diverse festival that we need to see more of in Australia and Ensemble Offspring cannot wait to share it with curious ears young and old!

Margetic’s new work, Bricks and Mortar, rails against his tendency to write pieces that have long, overlapping lines, and intensity levels that slowly change over a few minutes. “With Bricks and Mortar,” he says, “I deliberately tried to go against this tendency, with a piece that was overtly sectional. The bricklaying metaphor seemed ideal. It has five movements: three big tense ones, with two relaxed interludes buffering in between. The first movement is a dry-stone wall which suddenly cuts between contrasting blocks every few bars. The third is one of my ‘long line’ creations, but it changes colour every beat, like tiles forming a mosaic. The last movement is a brittle, rhythmically decoupled dance that superimposes the violin and clarinet on top of an unsynchronised percussion ‘frame’. The interludes, Rubble and Filler, are exactly what it says on the tin.”

Alexey Botvinov is an exceptional pianist currently living in exile from Ukraine. He is touring internationally to raise money for family and friends back home, and makes his Australian debut with a deeply romantic programme of Brahms, Chopin, Rachmaninov and Silvestrov. All proceeds from this concert will go to Alexey and helping Ukraine.

18th September, 3pm | The Independent theatre

The nation currently known as the Czech Republic once encompassed the Duchy of Bohemia, which for its size has supplied more than its share of talent to the world of fine music: over three hundred composers at last count, and a few dynasties of instrument-makers.

A Bohemian fiddle by the Hamm or Heberlein family may not command a price requiring a second mortgage but is still worth owning and, better, playing. Why did so many Bohemian musicians emigrate, and to Germany in particular? A complex history of political intrigue, conquest and upheaval supplies some answers, but the long tradition of noble and ecclesiastical patronage was an even bigger impetus. It was to the court of the Elector Palatine of Mannheim that Jan Václav Stamic journeyed around 1741, to take up an appointment as composer, string virtuoso, and teacher. Germans never quite got his name right; nine different spellings at least. We shall settle for ‘Stamitz’, for this is how he and his sons signed themselves. The Stamitz stable provided prolific composers, masterful conductors, and fine performers during the era of High Classicism. A familiar scenario; they were not alone in such achievements. What distinguishes the Stamitz clan is their innovation. Not that they intended to launch any ‘movement’, it was a later age which pigeonholed art. Stamitz initiatives were partly the result of insularity, and partly of their creative urge. Haydn, confined so often for so long at Eszterháza, was similarly inventive. Innovators, yes. But perhaps ‘crystallisers’ is a clearer image. Particular influences and precise instances of innovation are hard to define, but there sometimes arises a locus where nuances and notions converge – call it zeitgeist, if you will. Elements and essences coalesce and appear as a fresh vision. A single artist or perhaps a coterie may become the vector of expression. It emerges in their works and becomes an inspiration and an affirmation for others. Musicologists point to the effect of opera on instrumental music of the Classical Era: shifting moods and pace, protagonists, and minor characters, colour, and scenarios. In short, drama! Empfindsamer Stil, the emphasis on ‘feeling’ in music arising from the humanitarian ideas of the Enlightenment. Better instrumental playing technique and construction; countless tiny currents of experiment and change. These too fed innovation.

Johann Wenzell Stamitz as Konzertmeister raised its standard of playing until the Mannheim Orchestra was the talk of Europe. He demanded precision of intonation and exactness in execution, and the orchestra to sound as a ‘single instrument’ rather than a loose assembly of disparate elements. The Mannheim Orchestra was noted for the intensity of its dynamics. Sudden forte passages, or a pianissimo phrase – the direction subito might have been invented for them. Their orchestral crescendo was much admired. Crescendo is a word often misused to mean ‘climax’, but it indicates a climb, from hush to huzzah. An orchestral crescendo requires fine tutti discipline, as does its inverse, the decrescendo.

The Boys from Bohemia The Innovative Stamitz Family

By Stephen Gard

The Stamitz family, Thursday 29 September, 2:00pm

Charles Burney, among the earliest musical historians, described the Mannheim Orchestra as ‘an army of generals’. The Stamitz ‘firm’ comprised Johann Wenzel and his sons Carl Philipp and Anton Nepomuk. W.A. Mozart, always a slow man with a compliment, styled the sons ‘wretched scribblers, gamblers, swillers and adulterers’. Whether fact or gossip, their private lives did not prevent either from producing a considerable body of work. Carl’s oeuvre fills a complete column of the Grove Dictionary. Anton was less prolific, though he is believed to have died just before his fortieth birthday, perhaps during the chaos of the French Revolution. He was a violinist at the court of Versailles. In time their work fell out of fashion – another familiar scenario – until the age when musicology became an academic discipline and a profession. Scholars analysed the works of major composers for traces of forerunners, identified obscure artists, praised and promoted their achievement, edited and republished their scores. New audiences discovered what their forebears had lauded. Paul Nettl in Forgotten musicians (1951) calls Johann Stamitz ‘another Shakespeare’. David Ewen in Pioneers in music (1972) styled Johann one of the ‘unsung heroes of musical history’. Unsung at least, until modern scholars began their paeans. Yet the Mozarts, father and son, heard and praised the Mannheim Orchestra; its practices and precepts have since been styled ‘the Mannheim School’. Odd to think that the word ‘Bohemian’ came to mean ‘scruffy’, ‘non-conformist’, even ‘vagabond’. The music of the Bohemian Stamitz boys is elegant, exact, and conforms nicely to the taste of their times.

In the meantime, she’s content. “I’m just going to enjoy where I’m at.” May it be forever like this.

Kate says she will forever sing jazz standards (Billie Holliday and Ella Fitzgerald are favourites), but she’s open to what’s ahead, with gigs and tours slated over the next year. “I’m excited to see what comes for me and if instrumentalists throw some opportunities my way, I’d love to explore them.”

Warm, inviting, and accessible, you feel like you’re immersed in a line-up of old classics… it’s music you’d like to cook to when you have friends around for dinner,” she laughs.

Kate ForeverWadeyAJazz Performer

Starting out as an actor in Adelaide with a theatre and film degree, Kate fully fell for jazz after moving to Sydney 13 years ago. “I just love singing jazz music, that’s why I do it. Jazz feels so original. It’s a beautiful way to be a creative person each time you perform, telling a story of the lyrics. They paint such beautiful pictures for me.”

“Although all the tracks on the album sit within the vocal jazz music genre, they don’t all have the same tempo and feel,” Kate explains. “One song is in 7/4-time signature, and there’s a waltz, ballads and swing tunes.”

The nine tracks are all written by Kate in collaboration with Sam, Chris, Andrew, Matt McMahon, Ben Panucci, and others like guitarist Arthur Washington and pianist Harry Sutherland, who also performed on the album.

In the Annandale Creative Arts Centre on a cold and clear winter’s night beneath a gorgeously Gothic vaulted ceiling, the music begins. In her tiered teal gown, jazz singer Kate Wadey enters the golden glow of the stage, and warmly introduces her band. Andrew Scott on piano, her partner Sam Dobson (“my beloved and better part”) on double bass, James Waples on drums and later Chris O’Dea on tenor sax and Peter Koopman on guitar. “Relax, enjoy. I’m saying that to you and me!” she beams. And with her red-painted nails, her fingers click the band in. Once the band closes the title track, Kate twirls her skirt in thanks to our rapturous applause and, by the light of the redshaded standard lamp, Sam gives her the thumbsup. Then to Tell You How I Feel, which she wrote with Sam: “I’ve climbed the highest peaks but when we’re alone and you say hello and I’m too scared to speak”, sings Kate, with Sam bowing on his double bass in reply.

“It’s a snapshot of where I am now musically,” she says. “It’s a more contemporary version of jazz standards but it’s not contemporary jazz. It’s not new jazz, it’s taken from the old world.

Ginnane

“The musicians I work with are the core group of people in my life,” she says.

Silence, a collaboration with Andrew follows, capturing the stress and anxiety she experienced in deep lockdown. Each song is a story of the joy, the pain, the passion in her life. Her voice is like a spring, both propelled by strength and energy but also like the water source, pure and from the heart.

Winning the 2MBS Fine Music’s inaugural Ken Weatherly Jazz Scholarship in late 2019 gave Kate the impetus to get the ball rolling, she tells me after the show, which she labels ‘a celebration of the album’. The ideas for a third album were ‘waiting in the wings’, but as she describes it, ‘life happened’ in more ways than one, with her son Banjo conceived pretty much at the start of the Covid-19 lockdowns and the restrictions to follow. Now cradling the bump of her second baby boy due in December, Forever Like This is finally born. “I feel very relieved it’s out there. I felt very happy to finally be performing the music and very supported having a really full room!”

“There is love and respect for each other and an openness to playfulness and fun in our music. But the bottom line is I love to collaborate. That’s when I work best.”

Actor to jazz performer

Collaboration is key

The announcement of a quartet. The appearance of a solitary musician, a cellist, on stage playing a melody. Joined by violist and a violinist walking up one aisle and adding their instruments to the mix. Followed by another violinist walking up the other aisle. Like musicians from Brigadoon (or its Danish equivalent) emerging from the mists of time.

Such was our introduction to the performance by the Ben Adler Quartet of The Best of Danish Folk Songs at St Stephen’s Uniting Church, Macquarie Street, on Saturday 6 August. It was one of a series of concerts being held at various venues around Sydney this winter and spring, promising a ‘multi-sensory musical experience in awe-inspiring locations’ and accompanied by flickering candlelight. Certainly, the location, designed in Interwar Gothic style – with carved tracery, lead light windows, polished timber panelling, plaster ceilings and elaborately decorated copper lanterns – provided a sympathetic ambience for the music to follow. The music derived from two collections of folk songs, Wood Works and Last Leaf, collated and arranged by the Danish String Quartet. By the end of the evening the Ben Adler Quartet had been rebranded, transmogrified into the Nomad Quartet. Its members are Ben Adler and Yuhki Mayne, violins, Beth Condon, viola, and James Larsen, cello. Ben and James studied in Sydney, Yuhki in Tasmania and Beth in Melbourne, and between them have been involved with numerous Australian orchestras, most particularly with the Australian Chamber Orchestra and its affiliated entities. They see themselves as having the ‘energy of a rock band’ and the ‘spontaneity of a jazz ensemble’ and this was borne out over the course of the evening. The music was organised into five suites or courses (think entrées, mains, desserts), and so allowed for plenty of light and shade – or rather, processes of increasing and decreasing illumination and shadow. The songs ranged over the ages and included numerous dances, though often with an undercurrent of loneliness highlighted by the plaintive notes of the viola. They also ranged beyond Denmark and even Scandinavia: one of the melodies, Sterrands Rand, collected in Denmark in 1768, had been published in Edinburgh a decade earlier; another, a recent composition by a Danish String Quartet violinist, was based on the music of John Dowland, who had worked at the Danish court from 1598 to 1606. Highly appropriate then that this music was being played by the Nomad String Quartet, themselves not confined to a particular genre or style of music.

Volunteer Spotlight

Rita’s personal taste is passionate orchestral music from the romantic period and almost any classical music involving the piano. However, she also loves dancing in the lounge room to rock and roll music of the 1950s, 60s and 70s.

One of Rita’s outstanding musical experiences was in 1983, when she attended a concert celebrating the tenth anniversary of the Sydney Opera House. The London Symphony Orchestra was the guest orchestra and they played Elgar’s Cello Concerto. Rita says: “I was taken on a passionate journey through anguish, hope, sorrow and rhapsody. All this, while celebrating Sydney having its very own Opera House. This was a performance that will remain with me forever.”

Apart from programming, Rita plays flute and guitar in a couple of amateur music ensembles. She adds: “I am also studying for a Master of Arts with an English Literature major, but my favourite pastime is going on long walks with my husband, Graeme, and our beloved spoodle dog, Woolfie. As you can see, I have the best life imaginable.”

Rita Felton

Asked about the time involved in preparing programs, Rita explains: “I spend hours programming, but it’s not work, it’s pure pleasure. In putting a program together, I listen to a great deal of music (with my dog at my feet), but quite frequently, I get carried away and end up listening to music that has nothing to do with the program I’m preparing. It takes me twice as long to prepare a program as it “Myshould!”favourite program to prepare is Concert Hall, as I often schedule works I have heard live in concerts, and this brings back lovely memories. The greatest challenges involve researching for more specific programs such as Musical Journeys where the focus is on music inspired by travel, or Centres of Music focusing on one musical place. Quite often, these programs expose me to music I was not otherwise aware Involvementof.” with 2MBS means different things for different volunteers. Rita’s explanation is: “For most people, the average day is filled with mundane tasks, and I like to think that Fine Music programs can take someone on an emotional journey while they do the boring stuff, like commuting or housework. To contribute, in even the smallest of ways, to making a person’s day a little more enjoyable is really important to me and the best part of being involved with this fabulous radio station.”

In 2019, Rita contemplated life after retirement as a solicitor. She says: “I didn’t want to volunteer with some large organisation with a huge investment portfolio, with entire departments devoted to fundraising, and with no connection to my local area. Instead, I looked for something small, local, and reflecting my values and interests – Fine Music was a perfect fit.” Music has been with Rita all her life. She comments: “My mother played piano and she used to put me, and my tiny baby sister, in the playpen while she practised. I adored her playing and I must have been the only two-year-old who loved Hanon’s 60 piano exercises. It was, however, her rendition of Chopin’s Prelude no 15 in D flat major that brought me to tears as a toddler, and that started my love affair with classical music.”

With the 150th anniversary of the birth of Ralph Vaughan Williams, a new disc has arrived that explores the more obscure reaches of the English composer’s oeuvre. It’s a recording that will be of great interest to enthusiasts of Vaughan Williams but does tend to the esoteric and academic. The title work is an Edwardian masque composed in 1905. The work combines fanfares, declamation, hymns and dances, some original, others based on folk sources. Accompanying this esoteric work are some pieces reconstructed by Sydney composer, Christopher Gordon. The pieces were found among the Vaughan Williams papers in the British Library and their inclusion adds to our picture of Vaughan Williams’ creative and editorial processes. The final track is the Fantasia on a theme of Thomas Tallis arranged for voices. Taking its text from Tallis’s original, the vocal arrangement lends an extra level of emotional weight to the piece, but some listeners may find this overly sentimental, despite it being engaging listening. This recording is one that provides interest and information, if not complete musical satisfaction.

Australian Monody The Marais Project Move Records MCD 633 20

CD REVIEWS

This fascinating new release by The Marais Project has as its subtitle ‘reflections on light and darkness, love and loss’, however the more arresting compositions are those which reference darkness and loss. Monody is a musical term indicating vocal works written for a single voice, and most items here fit that description, though some feature both vocalists, countertenor Russell Harcourt and soprano Susie Bishop. A couple are purely instrumental, showcasing viola da gamba and theorbo, but a monody, like a threnody, can also be a poem lamenting a person’s death. The inspiration for this collection came from Gordon Kerry’s elegy for worshippers murdered at mosques in Christchurch. This is complemented by Alice Chance’s Precious colours (Pallah-Pallah), which draws upon a Dreaming story, and Isaac Nathan’s The Aboriginal mother, which mourns victims of the Myall Creek Massacre of 1838. Nathan was active in Australia from the 1840s and was the first composer to research, transcribe and incorporate Indigenous Australian music into his works. Though brief, the compositions in Australian monody are serious and substantial.

What did we all do during COVID lockdowns to maintain our sense of perspective? More walking! Ah, the outdoors. What did musicians do? Rehearse for hoped-for gigs, and compose. Tom Urquhart and his colleagues in Shattered Circuits combined these into hikes in the bushland around Sydney, and composing new music. Their third release, Hike, is inspired by those bush walks. Shattered Circuits is led by keyboardist and composer Tom Urquhart, with Amanda Jenkins on bass, Brendan Paul on drums, and now with saxophonist Tom Andrews joining the trio. Both Amanda and Brendan are recent graduates from Sydney’s jazz campuses. Their previous excellent release, Loading…, was artfully recorded in their home garage, aka Tambourine Studio! Hike was recorded in the Golden Retriever Studios in Marrickville.

– Keith Pettigrew Hike Shattered BandcampCicuits

The beat is deliberate, sometimes strident, sometimes gentle. The music is tuneful and imaginative. This is foot-tapping, thinking, relaxing and engaging jazz. And definitely worth seeing live.

The names of the tracks tell of their inspiration: Undergrowth, Cascades, Stuck in the Mud, Should We Be Here, etc. Urquhart’s keyboard and synth set the feel, quickly diminishing into Jenkins’ driving bass with strong rhythm from Paul’s drumming. Andrews’ sax provides excellent punctuation. Stuck In The Mud has a soulful feel, while the last track, Solace has a distinct environmental feel, gentle watery sounds growing to the sense of awe and peace that one finds in the bush. Wow comes with musical unison, like turning around the corner of that bush track, and wow!

Robert, a young French aristocrat with revolutionary ideas, flees to New Orleans in 1792. Under an assumed name, he sells himself as a bond-servant to planter and shipowner, Monsieur Beaunoir. He falls in love with Beaunoir's beautiful daughter, Marianne. Eventually he is tracked down by Vicomte Ribaud and put aboard a ship, the New Moon, to be returned to France. Marianne is travelling on the same ship, pretending that she is in love with the ship's captain, George Duval. Robert and the bond-servants mutiny and land on the Isle of Pines where they found a new republic. French ships arrive and Vicomte Ribaud expects them to conquer the island for the King of France. However, the French Commander reveals that there has been a revolution in France and that all aristocrats must die unless they renounce their titles.

RENAUD: Charles Workman, ten ARMIDE: Mireille Delunsch, sop GODDESS OF HATE: Ewa Podles, sop UBALDE: Brett Polegato, bass DANISH KNIGHT: Yann Beuron, ten Les Musiciens du Louvre Ch & O/Marc Minkowski. Archiv 459 616-2 2:19 During the First Crusade in 1098, the Christian knight Renaud is ensnared with magic spells by the enemy princess, Armide of Damascus. As she raises her dagger to kill him, she finds herself falling in love with him and she casts a spell to make him return her love. Afterwards she cannot bear the thought that Renaud's love is only the work of enchantment. She calls on the Goddess of Hate to restore her hatred for Renaud, but to no avail as she still loves him. The goddess condemns Armide to eternal love. Before Armide can return to Renaud, two Crusaders, Ubalde and the Danish Knight, reach Renaud and break Armide's spell. Renaud escapes and Armide is left enraged, despairing, and hopeless. She bids the Furies to destroy the enchanted palace and she perishes in the ruins (or according to the libretto, ‘departs in a flying car’).

However, their bravest knight, Rinaldo, has been bewitched by the enchantress Armida but she has fallen in love with him and cannot bring herself to kill him. She wants him to lead the attack against the crusaders. Idreno gets Zelmira, daughter of the King of Egypt, to seduce the knights, but she also falls in love with one. Rinaldo is brought to his senses by two comrades and thenceforth resists Armida and with his knights defeats her magic powers.

The sorceress Armida, presenting herself as a noblewoman and ruler of Damascus, convinces a group of knights to abandon their posts defending Jerusalem to help her reclaim her throne from her evil uncle Idraote. Considered best among the knights is Rinaldo, whom she has met before and secretly loves. She reminds him how she saved his life and accuses him of ingratitude. Rinaldo then reveals that he loves her too. The knight, Gernando, sees them together and insults Rinaldo in front of the other men. They duel and Gernando is killed. Rinaldo is convinced that his comrades will see that he was only defending his honour, but the soldiers turn against him. Armida conjures up a storm. They make their escape to an enchanted island, where she holds him captive and where Rinaldo loses all thought of war and military Twohonour.ofRinaldo’s fellow knights, Ubaldo and Carlo, are sent on a mission to rescue him, but they too are overwhelmed by Armida’s enchanted gardens, even though they know it’s all an illusion. They wait to find Rinaldo. Once he is alone, they show him his reflection in a shield. He no longer recognises himself as the honourable warrior he once was and is determined to escape. When Armida discovers his absence, she calls upon the powers of hell ≠to bring her lover back but her spell doesn’t work. She rushes off in pursuit of the three men and begs Rinaldo not to desert her. With the help of Ubaldo and Carlo, he rejects (c1650).
