Lord Berners: The Triumph of Neptune - Ballet Suite London Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Sir Thomas Beecham Recorded December 20, 1937, in EMI's Studio No. 1, Abbey Road, London, on Columbia 78-rpm matrices CAX 8145 through CAX 8148. Issued in February, 1938, as Columbia LX 697 and LX 698. Soon afterwards, the US issue appeared as Columbia Masterworks Set X-92 (records 69142-D and 69143-D); this is the source for my transfer. The Suite, as presented here, is in seven sections: 1. Schottische 2. Hornpipe (at 2:18) 3. Polka (The Sailor's Return) (at 3:53) (Robert Alva, bass) 4. Harlequinade (at 6:35) 5. Dance of the Fairy Princess (at 7:53) 6. Sunday Morning (Intermezzo) (at 9:58) 7. Apotheosis (at 11:56) Lord Berners (Gerald Hugh Tyrwhitt-Wilson, 1883-1950) became the 14th Baron Berners in 1918. This ballet score, written in 1926 for Diaghilev's "Ballet Russes" to a story by Sacheverell Sitwell, is his most famous work. Such information about it as I have been able to glean from the Internet leads me to conclude that knowledge of the background of the score adds little to appreciating the music, which is sheer fun from beginning to end. (It might be worth noting, however, that the Polka is twice interrupted by a bass voice drunkenly singing "The Last Rose of Summer" - the returning sailor of the subtitle, perhaps?) Not even the order the movements are played in seems to matter, as long as the sequence concludes with the "Apotheosis" which is clearly a finale in character. Beecham made an LP recording of the suite in 1952, with the Philadelphia Orchestra, adding two additional movements ("Cloudland" and "The Frozen Forest") and presenting everything in a different order than here - but that order is also different from David Lloyd-Jones' Marco Polo CD of the complete ballet. For this reason, I have chosen not to alter the sequence of movements as presented on the 78-rpm discs.

1. Londonderry Air (arr Cyril Scott.) 3:20 2 Carlos Salzedo: Whirlwind Thanks to Rolf for allowing me to use his excellent transfers. You can find this and many other wonderful selections and information at his website: (http•••) John Marson The Guardian, Wednesday 15 December 2004 The harp is a magnificent sight in an orchestra, and its solo music is often similarly splendid, if rather conservative in idiom. Thus Sidonie Goossens, who has died aged 105, was a paradox among great harpists: as the principal harp of a radio orchestra, she was unseen by most of her audience, and since that orchestra was the BBC Symphony, she had every opportunity to revel in performing the modern works central to its repertory. Sidonie started broadcasting in 1924, from the earliest "2LO calling" days of the BBC, in regular programmes from its Savoy Hill studio with the Wireless Quartet, and was a member of the BBC Symphony Orchestra from its foundation in 1930 until 1980. In retirement, she continued to play with the orchestra from time to time, as at a Prom concert in 1988 for Vaughan Williams's Serenade To Music, whose premiere she had participated in 50 years before. Her last appearance as a performer was as soloist at the Last Night of the Proms in 1991, shortly before her 92nd birthday, when she accompanied Dame Gwyneth Jones in Sidonie's own arrangement of The Last Rose Of Summer. Following a stroke, she was unable to play in later years, though she continued to teach and coach a few pupils. She received an honour probably unequalled in orchestral history when, in 1999, she occupied the Royal Box in the Royal Festival Hall at a concert dedicated to her by her former orchestra. The programme of works by Schoenberg, Berg and Webern was ideally chosen to mark her long and enthusiastic involvement with the "new" music of the 20th century. Born in Liscard, on Merseyside, and brought up there and in Liverpool, she was saved from drowning by her elder sister Marie while on holiday in Southport. Theirs was a musical and theatrical family - their father and grandfather came from Belgium, and both conducted the Carl Rosa Opera Company - so it was inevitable that Sidonie, like her three brothers and sister, should learn an instrument. After demonstrating a distaste for the violin, she was taught the harp, eventually studying at the Royal College of Music with Miriam Timothy, founder harpist of the London Symphony Orchestra. Early engagements included the revival of Chu Chin Chow at His Majesty's Theatre. There the Shah of Persia was so taken by what he saw that he asked if he could buy both Sidonie and her harp. But she was not for sale: further theatre work included No, No Nanette and the original production of Flecker's Hassan, with music by Delius. Sidonie appeared with the Goossens Orchestra, formed by her conductor brother Eugene, and the adventurous programming of the BBC ensured that she worked under the batons of Beecham, Wood, Boult, Sargent, Furtwängler, Toscanini, Richard Strauss and Bruno Walter. Many composers wrote for her, including William Alwyn, Arnold Bax, Lord Berners, Bernard van Dieren, Cyril Scott and her brother Eugene. Sidonie was heard as soloist at the Proms more often than any other harpist. She played concertos by Alwyn, Paul Creston, Debussy, Dittersdorf, Hans Henkemans, Bernard Rands and Germaine Tailleferre. In Eugene Goossens's Concert Piece, written for the Goossens family, Sidonie and Marie played harps and Leon the oboe and cor anglais, while the composer conducted. Their horn-playing brother Adolphe had died in the first world war. For the rest: (http•••)
Lord Berners 1790 1935 1982 1986
The last Folly to be built in England. It was a beautiful evening with the sun casting long shadows and not a breath of wind, so ideal conditions for a flight. The folly on Folly Hill was designed by Gerald Wellesley, Marquess of Douro for Lord Berners and built in 1935. It is 140 feet (43 m) high and affords panoramic views of the Vale of White Horse. During the Second World War the Home Guard used it as an observation post. In 1982 Robert Heber-Percy restored it and gave it to the town in trust. It has been a Grade II Listed Building since 1986 The folly stands on the site of an old castle and also a Cromwellian gun emplacement. The trees surrounding the Folly were planted by Henry James Pye who was Poet Laureate from 1790 until his death. He wrote the lyrics to the rhyme "Sing a song of sixpence"
