Recorded by Grant O’Brien in Ruckers, A Harpsichord and Virginal Building Tradition, pp 257-258 Dr O’Brien records that “This is a typical English eighteenth-century ravalement of a Ruckers harpsichord. The case was widened and the octave span narrowed to accommodate the extra notes. New keyboards, jacks and slides were made and the bridges and nuts were re-pinned and extended… The inside of the main lid depicts St Theresa’s home town of Avila in Spain with the cathedral that breaches the town battlements.” The lid painting had been attributed to van der Meulen (1632-90) but is now thought to be earlier, perhaps circa 1620 and by an anonymous artist. The instrument is accompanied by An account of the restoration of the lid painting carried out between January 2007 and April 2008 by Ann and Peter Mactaggart Also accompanying the lot is correspondence relating to restoration work undertaken on the keyboard by Hug & Co. Basel in 1964 Provenance - Dr. Blow, Bath; Rev. John Bower, Bath; General Hopkinson, J. Kendrich Pyne and Boddington College, Manchester; Howard Head, London: WC Priestly, Messrs.

The Ray Swinfield Collection Lots 1601 - 1648 Ray Swinfield, who played woodwinds with everyone from Count Basie to The Beatles, died earlier this month at the age of 79. Lindy Swinfield has very kindly shared with LondonJazz News this tribute to her late husband: Ray’s active 50 year career in music began in his native Australia. Aged eight, his love of music began in the Primary school Fife Band. He recalled once in an interview that even from that early age, he knew he wanted to be a musician and was determined to work hard to achieve his goal. In his teenage years, Jazz became his main focus. He would race home from school to listen to his latest vinyl of Buddy de Franco, Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, Charlie Parker or Ben Webster, then practise the clarinet, saxophone and flute for hours. He was thrilled to see The Ted Heath Orchestra perform in Sydney, little knowing he would one day become a prominent member of that orchestra until its final performance in 2002. At 17, his professional career began and he quickly proved to be a much sought after player on the Sydney scene. This included numerous TV shows, studio work, jazz clubs, and recordings. Highlights throughout that time were a TV Special with Nat King Cole and playing in the Orchestra conducted by Bill Miller for Frank Sinatra in his 1962 Australian concerts. At that time, he never imagined that one day he’d be playing in the Count Basie Orchestra behind Sinatra at The Royal Festival Hall. In 1964, he arrived in England for an intended 12 month stay. His versatility and skill as a woodwind player was quickly recognised and led him to living and working here for the next 44 years, working beside musicians he highly regarded. He became a regular and valued addition to the British music scene, which included Session work, film soundtracks, commercials, TV shows, Royal Command Performances, BBC Radio Broadcasts, West End Shows, Pop recordings of the ’60s… Tom Jones, Petula Clark, Dusty Springfield, Englebert Humperdinck, The Beatles’ Penny Lane, etc… He made regular appearances with the LSO, the RPO, recorded albums with his own group, Argenta Ora, worked with Harry James, Tubby Hayes, George Shearing, John Dankworth, Andre Previn, Henry Mancini, Michel LeGrand, Jerry Goldsmith, the list is endless. Played in concerts, recorded or toured with Cleo Laine, Peggy Lee, Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett, Bing Crosby, Fred Astaire, Natalie Cole, Liza Minelli, Lena Horne, Kiri Te Kanawa, Mel Torme, too many to mention. He played in several bands but was a permanent member of The Don Lusher Band for many years. There were also dozens of TV shows from Top of the Pops, The Dame Edna Experience to Strictly Come Dancing. Twice a Downbeat Poll Winner, a Guest Lecturer at Flute Conventions, here and abroad, Album of the Year in jazz publications, Ray’s mastery of his instruments received numerous accolades throughout his career but as Dave Gelly once said in Jazz Journal, it was ”a brilliance lightly worn”. Twenty-one years ago, Ray began to develop symptoms which, seven years later, were diagnosed as Parkinson’s Disease. The first Neurologist he saw, in 2002, told him he could no longer play with this condition and asked, “Is there anything else you can do ?” Needless to say, Ray changed doctors and continued playing for another six years. Ray blew his last note on, ironically, Parkinson, the long running interview show hosted by Michael Parkinson. To those who knew him, Ray wasn’t just a brilliant musician but an inspirational man of integrity and generosity, endowed with a great wit and sense of humour. He succumbed to Dementia on October 4, 2019. Credits to Peter Bacon - London Jazz News Gardiner Houlgate is delighted to offer the following lots from Ray's personal collection.
