   Extractions: Judith Weir is one of Britain’s most wide-ranging composers. She studied composition with John Tavener whilst at school in London, and at Cambridge University with Robin Holloway. For six years she taught composition at Glasgow's University and RSAMD and she has also held visiting professorships at Oxford and Princeton. She is an active advocate of new music for school-age and adult amateur performers. Her interest in theatre, narrative and folklore has resulted in three full length operas, 'A Night at the Chinese Opera', 'The Vanishing Bridegroom' and 'Blond Eckbert'; and theatrical collaborations with Sir Peter Hall, Caryl Churchill and Peter Shaffer. Together with storyteller Vayu Naidu, Judith has created a blend of storytelling and music entitled 'Future Perfect' which has toured England and India. A new instalment is planned for 2005. Works composed for specific artists include 'woman.life.song', a 50-minute song cycle commissioned and performed by Jessye Norman in Carnegie Hall, New York and at the BBC Proms; 'We are Shadows', written for Sir Simon Rattle and the CBSO orchestra and its three choruses (winner of the 2000 South Bank Show Music Award); an extended series of chamber works for Judith’s longtime collaborators, the Schubert Ensemble, recently released on a double CD by NMC; and 'The Voice of Desire', a collection of songs written for Alice Coote.

   http://www.judithkellock.com/press.html
   
   Extractions: Judith Kellock displayed amazing talents as a dramatic reader and a singer of rare intelligence and vocal splendor. Everything but... Barber's Hermit Songs means the rest of his substantial published output for voice and piano, and the impulse behind this is absolutely right because it focuses our attention on the less familiar but equally important songs that span the composer's career. Judith Kellock has a voice of genuine quality. Her soprano is easeful in alt, as in the unaccompanied passage near the end of Nuvoletta , yet has amplitude below. Her somewhat elegiac tone naturally suits a number of these songs, and she finds additional intensity for James Joyce's I hear an army and Robert Graves' Despite and Still . Xak Bjerken is in equal command of the liquid pianism and the more outward virtuosity... The recording balances bloom and clarity... It features singing and playing of distinction.

12. Judith Weir - The Welcome Arrival Of Rain
    Home Composers judith weir The welcome arrival of rain judith weir The welcome arrival of rain. updated 18 February 2002. judith weir.  
    http://www.schirmer.com/composers/weir/welcome_arrival.html
    
    Extractions: Minneapolis, MN Composer note: This profuse and exuberant piece arose out of bare beginnings; a scale passage followed by a simple melody. Whilst I composed it, as the notes and the pages multiplied, I began to think of a comparison with the arrival of the monsoon in India, when aridity is pierced by life-giving rain; and humans, animals and vegetation revel in sudden activity and fertility. Although the monsoon is expected yearly, its arrival is always joyously surprising. The music's title was inspired by a passage from the 18,000 verse Hindu text, Bhagavata Purana (quoted in the score.) A 6-phrase scale pattern is heard at the beginning of the piece in highly compressed forms; in rushing passages for the winds and as chords for the solo strings. Then an 8-phrase melody is heard in a lush and spacious version where strings predominate above horns and trumpets. From here on, these two melodic sources are alternated as the basis of melody and harmony, right up to the utterly energetic culmination where both melodies are heard together with their respective variations; there follows a gentle, rainy coda. A prominent solo for the drum section (rototoms, tomtoms and timpani) starts in the middle of the piece and reinforces the ever-growing energy of the music. The welcome arrival of rain

14. Scipio's Dream By Judith Weir At ChesterNovello.com

    http://www.chesternovello.com/work/15969/main.html
    
    Extractions: Scipio, a modern office worker, is spending a boring day when suddenly two of his colleagues transform themselves in to the goddesses Fortune and Constancy. They insist that he choose between them: Fortune shows him the excitements of following chance and inclination while Constancy, taking him to heaven to meet his heroic ancestors, emphasises the satisfactions of obeying life's obligations dutifully. Scipio has some difficulty in deciding, but in the end chooses Constancy. Fortune is furious and throws him back to earth, where he makes an uncomfortable landing in his office, in the midst of a chorus singing the praises of those who choose rightly. Reviews Top of Page^ ...a wacky rescoring, using a synthesiser for the recitatives. The drama is no longer an opera seria vision of pre-Christian Carthage but a soapy modern office romance in which a computer keyboard takes the place of a harpsichord...Weir is one fo the few contemporary composers prepared to enlist laughter as a musical ally. It is a risky but necessary ploy.

    Extractions: Photo: Suzanne Jansen Chester Music composer Judith Weir travels to Lincoln Center on 19 May for the Chamber Music Society's world premiere of her new Piano Trio Weir, the winner of the Society's 1997 Elise L. Stoeger Prize for chamber music, comments on this prestigious American commission: "This is the latest in a series of piano/string chamber music that I started writing for musicians who had been fellow students with me. Whilst their formal structures have become increasingly abstract, I would say these chamber works have also become increasingly autobiographical in nature. And, as it's nearly 25 years since I became a music student, it's getting to be quite a long series!" Weir's music also appears in California in May when the Women's Philharmonic wraps up their season with the US premiere of Heroic Strokes of the Bow . Conducted by Apo Hsu, the concert is being presented in conjunction with "Art. Rage. Us," an art and creative writing exhibit organized by breast cancer survivors at the San Francisco Library.
