Gustav Theodore Holst (born Gustavus Theodore von Holst 1874 – 1934. An English composer, arranger and teacher. Best known for his orchestral suite The Planets, he composed many other works across a range of genres, although none achieved comparable success. His distinctive compositional style was the product of many influences, Richard Wagner and Richard Strauss being most crucial early in his development. The subsequent inspiration of the English folksong revival of the early 20th century, and the example of such rising modern composers as Maurice Ravel, led Holst to develop and refine an individual style. There were professional musicians in the previous three generations of Holst's family and it was clear from his early years that he would follow the same calling. He hoped to become a pianist but was prevented by neuritis in his right arm. Despite his father's reservations, he pursued a career as a composer, studying at the Royal College of Music under Charles Villiers Stanford. Unable to support himself by his compositions, he played the trombone professionally and later became a teacher—a great one, according to his colleague Ralph Vaughan Williams. Among other teaching activities, he built up a strong tradition of performance at Morley College, where he served as musical director from 1907 until 1924 and pioneered music education for women at St Paul's Girls' School, where he taught from 1905 until his death in 1934. He was the founder of a series of Whitsun music festivals, which ran from 1916 for the remainder of his life. Holst's works were played frequently in the early years of the 20th century, but it was not until the international success of The Planets in the years immediately after the First World War that he became a well-known figure. A shy man, he did not welcome this fame and preferred to be left in peace to compose and teach. In his later years, his uncompromising, personal style of composition struck many music lovers as too austere, and his brief popularity declined. Nevertheless, he was a considerable influence on a number of younger English composers, including Edmund Rubbra, Michael Tippett and Benjamin Britten. Apart from The Planets and a handful of other works, his music was generally neglected until the 1980s, when recordings of much of his output became available. The Brook Green Suite, was written in 1933 for St Paul's Girls' School junior orchestra for strings and consists of 3 movements. The name is thought to originate from Brook Green, the place of his wedding to his wife Isobel in 1901, or because of the close proximity of the Brook to the school, but most obviously arises from the location of the school on Brook Green in Hammersmith, London. The piece is composed in a more traditional idiom than most of his later pieces Holst wrote the suite while in hospital in the year before he died. The intention was to create a piece easy enough to play for younger members of the orchestra that is not simply a watered down version aimed at younger players or simple orchestrations of keyboard pieces. On this video the Prelude:- it is based on the C major scale, with the cellos covering 2 octaves of the scale. This short but evocative piece certainly sets the scene for what is to come and seem very much in the style of a folk song. The suite once had another movement, a Gavotte, which was removed after the first informal performance in 1934, the last concert Holst attended. Far removed from London's Hammersmith, the images accompanying Holst's lovely music on this video are from North Yorkshire. The famous Yorkshire photographer Frank Sutcliffe (1853 – 1941) depicts aspects of ordinary life over previous decades before the Second World War, on or near the North Yorkshire coast around Whitby and Scarborough. He captures a lost world and a unique atmosphere that has now almost entirely faded away, just like the imaginary 'Brook Green' that inspired the composer. So this is a kind of celebration of English rural and coastal lives from the past.

Theater Osnabrück Giacomo Puccini Prévost Sutcliffe Schumann Rhys Jenkins Jenkins Jeffrey Hartman José Gallisa Wagner Eggers 1731 1893
MANON LESCAUT Giacomo Puccini - Inhalt - Hin- und hergerissen zwischen der großen romantischen Liebe und einem luxuriösen Leben treibt Manon Lescaut sukzessive einem Abgrund entgegen. Die Reize des Komforts im Haus des älteren und gesellschaftlich hoch angesehenen Geronte de Ravoir konkurrieren mit der aufrichtigen Liebe des Studenten Renato Des Grieux. Manon wird Gerontes Geliebte, sehnt sich jedoch bald wieder nach Des Grieux. Als sie Geronte verlässt und den ihr geschenkten Schmuck mitnimmt, lässt dieser Manon wegen Diebstahls verhaften. Die Verurteilte wird nach Amerika ausgewiesen. Doch auch dort gelingt es ihr nicht, an der Seite Des Grieux’, der erzwingen konnte, Manon zu begleiten, ein unbelastetes, glückliches Leben aufzubauen. Manons Sucht nach Glanz zieht auch Des Grieux mit ins Unglück und lässt ihn zum Verbrecher werden. Abermals müssen beide fliehen. In der wilden Einsamkeit der Wüste stirbt die kranke Manon elend in den Armen Des Grieux’, dessen unerschütterliche Liebe der einzige Besitz ist, der ihr bis zum Ende blieb. Acht Textdichter, einschließlich des Komponisten selbst und seines Verlegers Ricordi, waren an der Entstehung des Librettos auf Grundlage des 1731 erschienenen Romans des Abbé Prévost beteiligt. Doch die teilweise zermürbende Arbeit hatte sich gelohnt: Die Uraufführung am 1. Februar 1893 in Turin wurde ein großer Erfolg und markierte Giacomo Puccinis lang ersehnten internationalen Durchbruch als Opernkomponist. Der englische Regisseur Walter Sutcliffe ist mit einem breitgefächerten Repertoire auf vielen Opernbühnen weltweit vertreten. In Osnabrück ist besonders seine Inszenierung von DON GIOVANNI noch in guter Erinnerung. - Besetzung - Musikalische Leitung: Andreas Hotz Inszenierung: Walter Sutcliffe Bühne und Kostüme: Okarina Peter, Timo Dentler Choreinstudierung: Markus Lafleur Video: Siegfried Köhn Dramaturgie: Ulrike Schumann Manon Lescaut: Lina Liu Lescaut, Sergeant: Rhys Jenkins Renato Des Grieux, Student: Jeffrey Hartman Geronte de Ravoir, Steuerpächter: José Gallisa Edmondo, Student: Daniel Wagner Wirt, Kapitän, Friseur, Tanzlehrer: Genadijus Bergorulko Tanzlehrer, Lampenanzünder: Mark Hamman Sergeant (Polizei): Jan Friedrich Eggers Ein Musiker: Gabriella Guilfoil Opernchor und Extrachor des Theaters Osnabrück Statisterie des Theaters Osnabrück Osnabrücker Symphonieorchester ℗ Filmproduktion Siegersbusch, Wuppertal
