FOREWORD BY THE DIRECTOR OF MUSIC
IN SOME WAYS THE CONCERT WORLD seents to be in a turmoil. The
recent_anxieties concerning some of the BBC orchestras, and the fluctuations
of the London concert hall box offices, even for popular programmes, are

two of theindications that the relationship between the public and the
performers has not properly been appreciated by concert promoters and
managements. Although, in some ways, the public has become more

critical and catholic in its taste, in others it is becoming easier to mislead

concertgoers byhighpowered publicity. Thus, the meteoric rise of some young
soloists and conductors is often due to the efforts of a public relations team
rather than talent. This sort of thing makes a facade of the concert scene,

so that the whole business of performance is not soundly based musically,
and it produces, too, a narrow and fickle public. The object of the Guildford
concert season has always been to provide as wide as possible a public with
a variety of works both well tried and adventurous and never to court that
kind of public who have an interest merely in the spectacular.

Last season’s audience attendances show that this policy sustains public
interest, and amidst the fluctuating box office figures mentioned above, it is
inspiring to see season after season of our concerts very well attended,
even though it is now admitted in the national press that the Guildford
Corporation concerts are more adventurous than most. The 1969/70 season
offers a number of favourites from the classical repertoire, including Messiah,
the Beethoven “Emperor” Concerto and the Tchaikovsky Fifth Symphony.
It contains two concerts which have been planned as the result of many

requests, one on the 19th April, 1970, when a programme of shorter pieces
including two popular choral works, will be performed, and on the 7th March,
because | have been taken to task for my neglect of Russian composers, a

completely Russian programme. In the repertoire programmes, Bach, Handel,
Mozart,Beethoven, Schumann, Brahms, Sibelius, Wagner, Dvorak, Rachmaninov,
Tchaikovsky are all represented, and the three enterprising programmes

include the mixture which Guildford accepts happily though the metropolis
is unable to. British works occur in all three programmes, but great modern
works from abroad are the main offerings in two of them. Stravinsky’s most
famous work, “The Rite of Spring’, will be heard in November: the first
time it has been performed in Guildford. In that programme the Proteus
Choir, who were saluted by the national press several times last season,
will bring their own particular quality to “Song of the High Hills” by Delius,
a work which was used in the popular television programme about that
composer. | have demanded so much of the Philharmonic Choir over the
past seven years, especially with regard to width of repertoire, that | have
decided it deserves a reward for its wonderfully selfless efforts. Some might
consider that my reward is a little strange, but the members of the choir will
understand it is the highest compliment | can pay them when| entrust to
them the first public performance of a work in Great Britain. The publishers
tell me that the “Epic of Gilgamesh” by Martinu has only been broadcast, so
its arriva! in Guildford on 2nd May will be an historic event.

So one can plan soundly and musically without planning dully, and further
variety is given to the season by the different nationalities and ages of our
soloists. Although born of French parents and brought up in Mexico, it is in
Photograph of Vernon Handley by John Gill

America that Michel Block has had unanimous critical acclaim and it is
there that he is now one of the foremost artists of the concert platform.
Livia Rev from France needs no introduction, and Jean-Rodolphe Kars is,
similarly, an international name. The list of established virtuosi also includes
John Lill, Erich Gruenberg and Clive Lythgoe, and a number of young
artists are, as usual, invited into a series which has become famous for
giving soloists at the beginning of their careers a chance to shine.
Frances Mason, Stephanie Bamford and Brian Rayner Cook have all been
prizewinners in their College careers, and have then gone on to give brilliant
London and provincial performances, but need a wider public to
develop their gifts.

A number of things strengthen the Corporation’s hand in carrying through
such a varied season: the support of the Concertgoers’ Society, whose own
Members’ Evenings are growing in number and variety, the versatility of the
choirs and orchestra, the interest taken in the concerts by the schools in the
district, the support of the local press, the Arts Council grant and the
increasing number of engagements in the district and farther afield that

members of the choirs and the orchestra and | can undertake; all these help

a wider public to appreciate the standard of the Corporation’s concert series.
But, of course, finally it is you, that public, which guarantees the success of
the music scheme in this town. You act as the spur and the reward for my
colleagues and | at the Civic Hall, and it is because of you and your support
that people are beginning to look towards Guildford’s musical stability

amidst the turmoil mentioned in my first paragraph. | look forward keenly

to your enthusiastic response to the concerts set out in this brochure, and
your stimulation and enjoyment is their primary aim. | hope, however, that
you will take an added satisfaction in the knowledge that your presence at
concerts which are designed for Guildford and its district is setting an
example to concert audiences and managements all over the country.

(Except Annual General Meeting on 20 September 1969
and Dinner and Dance on 6 February 1970)

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 solosists or orchestral
players, are needed to ensureareally 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 du‘ing the season: the programme for the
1969-70 season is set out on the previous page.

Saturday 21 March at 7.30 pm

The current annual subscription is 10/— for the first member of the
family, and 5/— for each subsequent member of the same family living at the
same address. The subscription for persons under the age of 18 and
Retirement Pensioners is 5/—. (These are the minimum subscriptions and

Union held an annual Festival of the Arts for the stimulation

and entertainment of its students. The First Guildford Festival
last year acknowledged the new position of the Union ina
wider community. This year the Second Guildford Festival will
again present a programme to interest all sections of the city’s

population. Orchestral concerts and modern music, together
