FOREWORD

be a betrayal of them, to offer a narrow, safe, box office repertoire in a narrow,
safe way, and it would serve no purpose. That last word might sum up all that |
and my team have been attempting for a number of years: something of, and on,
purpose. | have been lucky enough to hear and read many wonderful works of
music, that might not often come the way of anyone other than a professional
musician, and it would seem to me irresponsible to keep them to myself. And
the most wonderful thing about them is that no two people hear them in quite
the same way, so their evident riches increase enormously the more they are
played. The expansion of the Guildford Philharmonic Orchestra's activities proves
that narrow repertoire and box office ‘‘names”’ are not guarantees of success and
that a wide repertoire, enthusiastic playing, and a wide choice of soloists old and
young, is.

A short while ago an article appeared in the national press which drew attention
to the huge fees that could be commanded by certain conductors and soloists.
While not comparable with ‘‘pop’’ star earnings, the list of fees opposite the
particular names provided, made surprising reading. |n the middle of the bill there
was a short paragraph which pointed out that the size of fee in no way reflected
the artist's talent, or musical ability; simply the box office reaction to the name.
The writer later drew the correct conclusion: that a worthless though lucrative
for some, elitism was operating. Now elitism has very little to do with anything
except fear, and it is practised widely even in the most respected establishments.

Yet everyone expects that it will not be so in the arts, that anyone well known
will automatically be good. In this the arts are not different from other areas of
our society, and the increasing role of commerce in them, with sponsors

demanding that something more than prestige be shown for their investments,
has made box office influence in all branches of musical planning the greater.

But the writer of the article was right, you do not necessarily get the best by
paying the highest, and you may often get a stale repetition of programmes
that the particular artists have been performing all over the world because their

Of course we have one or two ‘‘names’”’ in every season, yet it always pains me
when people who came in the last two seasons to the wonderful playing of
James Galway and Hephzibah Menuhin, were not present at the stunning
performances by lesser known soloists, whose concerts flanked those in which
these two great artists appeared. In the coming season there are junior and senior
“‘stars’’ in Julian Lloyd Webber and Bronislav Gimpel, but if you buy tickets for
their concerts buy at the same time for Andrew Haigh and Aydin Onac, two
young artists with great futures. Many have requested the return of Lilian Kallir,
and Anthony Goldstone, and for more participation by soloists from the
orchestra. We are able to oblige. In each of the Enterprising Concerts there is one
established composer or popular work, so if you are a supporter of our unfamiliar
series you need not hesitate to bring friends or sell tickets enthusiastically for the
concerts.

The season is always constructed to please as many music-lovers as possible, but
also to help people who do not know many pieces to use the service to build a
listening repertoire. Most of all, | hope that the works and their enthusiastic
presentation help all who come to think for themselves about music, and through
this great art to think for themselves about life. Many people whose job it is to
preach in some way or other, politicians, priests, and professors, have found the
arts a source of inspiration and even instruction. By opening our minds and hearts
to composers known and unfamiliar perhaps we may be giving ourselves the
chance to solve some of the problems that our preachers with the best will in the
world are forced to leave us. And in Guildford it costs us very little to do so.

money making schedules prevent them from carrying a large repertoire.

Another article, also a few months ago, this time in Country Life, examined the

Guildford music scheme. It said that looking at the programmes in the Guildford
brochure, made one ‘‘rub one’s eyes in astonishment’. | have written before in

the foreword of the tripartite trust between the Guildford Philharmonic planning

team, players and singers, and you, the audience, which makes it possible for me
to make programmes which cause a nationally respected critic to,rub his eyes
with astonishment. When | plan a season, | pause to think of the people who

started the Borough Concerts scheme after the last war. They were not box office
minded. They were trying to create something for a community: an amenity

which would bring great music to people in the form of a civic service. It would

4 Tubular Metallic Action Frame This Steinway exclusive does

absolutely nothing. Which is precisely what an
action frame should do.
Steinway’s action frame is made of brass
tubing packed with hard wood. It is light and

rigid and these frames have been found true as
ever in Steinways over 100 years old.
