FOREWORD
THE 860 PEOPLE who came to Stravinsky’s ‘Pulcinella’ and Walton’s
‘Belshazzar’s Feast’ at the end of the 1965/66 season would probably
have been surprised had they been told that at least three of the programmes in the Guildford series of concerts in that season would have
been poorly attended in London. This was the ninth concert in the series
within the main series which started three years ago to bring unfamiliar,
neglected, sometimes very modern, and sometimes downright unfashionable music to the Guildford audience
in a spirit which has been dubbed
by a distinguished colleague of mine at the Yvonne Arnaud Theatre as
‘honest enquiry’. For me, as Musical Director, it is a most exciting
prospect: to plan a season for a large audience believing that they will
meet any adventurous planning of mine with an enthusiastic and broad-
minded approach of their own.
heard in the Corporation’s concert series. It is often said that although
first performances of interesting works are quite common, second performances are extremely rare, and J am determined that Guildford should
show that it is aware of the necessity for a re-hearing of such works.
Malcolm Williamson’s ‘Concerto Grosso’, which was received with
tremendous enthusiasm at the Proms a couple of seasons ago, is the case
in point here.
In the repertoire and popular series,
I have continued a practice I
started several seasons ago, and which seems to have been very popular,
namely the introduction, along with the old favourites, of works by
established composers which are not often heard. Kabalevsky’s Overture
‘Colas Breugnon’ in the first concert of the season, the Mozart Overture
‘Clemenza di Tito’ and the Tchaikovsky ‘Little Russian’ Symphony, will,
I hope, prove pleasant surprises for the audience who have come to hear
the established classics. Each year as well, I manage to include a couple
of works which have been requested by quite a number of people, and
this season the Vaughan Williams’ ‘Fantasia on a theme of Thomas Tallis’
and the Moeran ‘Sinfonietta’ (perhaps as a result of the Guildford
Philharmonic Orchestra’s Moeran record) have been demanded by
many people.
Last season was more adventurous than the previous one, yet at the
end of it the average attendance at the concerts had remained at over
80%: one of the best general attendance figures in the whole of the
country. The growing enthusiasm of the Guildford audience has had a
direct result on the forces who present the music of the Corporation’s
concert series. It has stimulated the orchestra to higher standards of
playing, and these have been recognised by the greater flow of work from
record companies. In the 1964/65 season the orchestra made its first
record. In the 1965/66 season three records of very different types were
made; one of unfamiliar music, one of popular music, and one for the
Yvonne Arnaud Theatre. More are planned. The competition to get into
the Proteus and Festival Choirs rose sharply during last season. A section
of the Proteus Choir made its television debut, and ‘Belshazzar’s Feast’
became a landmark in the development of the Festival Choir. The
orchestra opened the 1965/66 season of concerts for the Dorking Halls
Management Committee, and it is gratifying to note that the warm
response to that concert has secured a return invitation for the Guildford
Philharmonic Orchestra.
With several successful seasons behind them, these forces will only
continue to improve if I plan adventurously for them, and throw new
challenges before them and the wonderfully live concertgoing public that
we now have. And so, in the forthcoming season, Guildford will not only
continue to set an example of a varied and unfashion-conscious repertoire,
but it will now have a few ‘firsts’ to its credit. Two first performances of
works by young English composers, both living in this district, will be
given. They have been chosen from more than two dozen scores submitted
by young composers, and are both clear examples of an ability to write
stimulating contemporary music without recourse to the fashionable
serial methods. However, in order to give a balanced view of contemporary
music, one serial work will be played, the first, I believe, to have been
The other recurring feature, of course, is the Crossley Clitheroe Concert
where the fee of the solo artist is contributed by the ever-growing Concert-
goers’ Society. It has not always been possible to find a young soloist
locally who could live up to the standard now demanded by this concert
series, and it was agreed that where this was the case, a work particularly
associated with Mr. Clitheroe would decide the placing of this concert in
the season. This year, however, a young artist has presented herself who
will do full justice to the concert.
The Festival Choir has three concerts in the series and the Proteus
Choir two, and between them they cover a wide range of musical styles.
Each of the concerts which has a choral element presents an important
work, from the wordless contribution of the Proteus Choir in Daphnis
and Chloe to the triumphantly articulate B Minor Mass which the Festival
Choir has not sung for five years. It will be noticed on going through the
programme that the orchestra’s burden this year is a huge one, involving
as it does not only three or four works which are either extremely rare, or
first performances, but also three of the great orchestral show pieces:
Daphnis and Chloe, the Bartok Concerto for Orchestra, and the Elgar
First Symphony are works not commonly heard in this country outside
London, unless a B.B.C. broadcast has ensured lavish rehearsal. The
morale and enthusiasm of the Guildford Philharmonic Orchestra
is something unique in English music today, and the Guildford
audience’s growing support makes these particular works a tremendously
inviting challenge for such a body of players. In the last concert brochure
I was recalling the glowing reception given to the Bax Fourth Symphony
in 1964 and anticipating the one which might greet the Hindemith
‘Symphonic Metamorphoses’ in 1965. The Orchestra, the Choirs and I
look forward very much to presenting the audience that we had for
‘Belshazzar’s Feast’, plus their friends, with a season where every concert
is a highlight. Too many planners in the fields of popular and cultural
entertainment merely try to imitate London. It is several seasons now
since that was at all necessary in Guildford, and the immense response
of the Guildford audience and the support of the Guildford Concertgoers’
Society makes it possible for the Guildford Corporation’s series of
concerts to aim in a way at being a model for others. As I have often said,
through the medium of this foreword, it is impossible to please everyone
within the scope of 13 or 14 concerts, but my aim over several concert
seasons is still to provide a varied repertoire in which everyone can find
either something already to his taste or something to stimulate his interest.
The 1966/67 season is no exception to this. It is exceptional only in that
it reflects the liveliness of an audience with whom it is such a great pleasure
to share music.

About the Society
The Guildford Concertgoers’ Society was formed in 1949. Five years earlier
the Corporation of Guildford had founded a Municipal Orchestra under a
professional Director of Music; and the first (and still the single most important)
aim of the Society has been to support and promote interest in the concerts
sponsored by the Corporation. The latter is a generous patron of the Arts, but
the success of its policy depends on an enthusiastic response from the people who
benefit by it—that is, from everyone interested in this brochure. By its existence
and activities the Concertgoers’ Society proves that there is a keen and growing
demand for good music well performed. In this way we have over the years been
able to encourage the Corporation to continue and extend its own support for
such music.
The Society in addition gives more direct help. Corporation grants cover the
basic costs of the concerts and music administration, insofar as these cannot be
completely met by box office receipts. However, there are sometimes occasions
when an extra rehearsal, or extra soloists or orchestral players, are needed to
ensure a really first-class performance of some particularly difficult or demanding
work. The Society therefore raises money by various methods to provide a Fund
from which it can make grants to cover such exceptional items. In this way, for
example, a substantial contribution was made to help finance the first recording
to be made by the Guildford Philharmonic Orchestra. Again, through this Fund
members also provide two annual playing Scholarships with the orchestra for
promising young professional musicians, and pay for the fees of a young soloist
at the annual Crossley Clitheroe Concert. By joining the Society you will be
helping to sponsor such worthwhile activities.
However, as a member you will also receive certain more direct and tangible
benefits in exchange for your subscription. Apart from supporting the
Corporation’s programme of concerts, the Society itself organises its own
meetings and social functions during the season: the programme for the 1966-67
season is set out on the next page.
The current annual subscription is 5/—reduced to 2/6d. for second and
subsequent members of the same family or for anyone under 18 years of age.
(This is a minimum, however, and many members voluntarily pay more in order
to help the Society with its activities.) The subscription covers:
1. An advance copy of this annual programme brochure.
2. Priority bookings for tickets to all Corporation concerts (14 days before
public bookings commence).
3. A copy of the monthly newsletter Notes, keeping you in touch with local
musical events.
The Society also arranges other benefits for its members when the chance arises.
The Society now has well over 1,000 members. They are drawn not only from
Guildford and its immediate neighbourhood but from all over West Surrey and
even further afield. The Society is affiliated to the Surrey County Music Association and in turn one or two local music groups, such as the Horsley Music
Circle, are affiliated to the Society.
If you are not yet a member, or wish to renew your membership, please use the
slip on the next page (you may post it or hand it in at a concert or members’
evening). If you are already a member, will you pass this form to a friend who is
not yet a member, with a recommendation from yourself—or perhaps even give
her or him a subscription as a present?
The Hon. Secretary will always be glad to give you further information about
the Society. We welcome new members at any time.
JOHN DOWNHAM,
Chairman.
