INTERNATIONAL RESEARCHERS INTERNATIONAL RESEARCHERS Laurie Wright Prof. Lawrence Gushee Roger Richard Prof. James Dapogny ... Mike Meddings Laurie Wright was born in Ware, Hertfordshire in 1929. His interest in rhythmic music began at an early age. He opened an electrical and record shop in Walthamstow, East London in 1955, doing his best to promote jazz. Then in 1965, together with Jack Harvey and three other friends, he founded the internationally acclaimed magazine “Storyville.” In 1968, along with John R.T. Davis, he produced the booklet “Morton’s Music” and he began publishing a long series of jazz books, several of which he wrote himself. Major works by Laurie include: “ Mr. Jelly Lord ,” “King Oliver,” “Fats In Fact,” and the “Jug Bands of Louisville.” By June 1995 the “Storyville” magazine had reached 162 issues, all published on time — a notable achievement. Since “retiring” in 1995, Laurie has produced four follow-up volumes of the magazine and he now continues his researches in a more leisurely way. Prof. Lawrence Gushee

Richard Wright's Life Ann Rayson W right, Richard (4 Sept. 1908-28 Nov. 1960), author, was born Richard Nathaniel Wright on Rucker's Plantation, between Roxie and Natchez, Mississippi, the son of Nathaniel Wright, an illiterate sharecropper, and Ella Wilson, a schoolteacher. When Wright was five, his father left the family and his mother was forced to take domestic jobs away from the house. Wright and his brother spent a period at an orphanage. Around 1920 Ella Wright became a paralytic, and the family moved from Natchez to Jackson, then to Elaine, Arkansas, and back to Jackson to live with Wright's maternal grandparents, who were restrictive Seventh-day Adventists. Wright moved from school to school, graduating from the ninth grade at the Smith Robertson Junior High School in Jackson as the class valedictorian in June 1925. Wright had published his first short story, "The Voodoo of Hell's Half-Acre," in three parts in the Southern Register in 1924, but no copies survive. His staunchly religious and illiterate grandmother, Margaret Bolden Wilson, kept books out of the house and thought fiction was the work of the devil. Wright kept any aspirations he had to be a writer to himself after his first experience with publication. After grade school Wright attended Lanier High School but dropped out after a few weeks to work; he took a series of odd jobs to save enough money to leave for Memphis, which he did at age seventeen. While in Memphis he worked as a dishwasher and delivery boy and for an optical company. He began to read contemporary American literature as well as commentary by H. L. Mencken, which struck him with particular force. As Wright reveals in his autobiography

Classical Music on the Web Music Webmaster Len Mullenger Ruth Gipps Obituary Ruth Dorothy Louisa Gipps, composer, conductor and teacher: born Bexhill- on-Sea, East Sussex 20 February 1921; MBE 1981; married 1942 Robert Baker (one son); died Eastbourne, East Sussex 23 February 1999. First published in The Independent (Wednesday Review) 3 March 1999 p 6. THE COMPOSER, conductor and teacher Ruth Gipps said she had always found it "difficult to understand young people who don't know what they want to be when they grow up". For Gipps, from a young age, it was music. At first manoeuvred by her mother into appearing as a child pianist, she entered the Royal College of Music in 1937, winning the Caird Scholarship. Here she developed both as a composer with Vaughan Williams and Gordon Jacob and as a pianist. Several contemporaries have remarked on her performance of the Brahms Second Piano Concerto while a student. When Sir Henry Wood conducted Gipps's tone poem Knight in Armour at the last night of the 1943 Proms, he signalled the emergence of a talented new voice. Chamber works had already been heard at the Wigmore Hall, and no musician could have had a more rewarding concert when in Birmingham in March 1945 she was soloist in a Glazunov piano concerto and followed it by playing cor anglais in the first performance of her own First Symphony. During the Second World War her life was focused on Birmingham, where, in 1942, she married the clarinettist Robert Baker. In 1944, while he was away on war service, she was a full-time orchestral musician (oboe/cor anglais) in the City of Birmingham Orchestra. During the 1940s Birmingham was an active centre of musical creativity as the conductor George Weldon encouraged local composers and played several big works by Gipps, including two symphonies, violin and piano concertos and various tone poems.

Music on the Web (UK) Music Webmaster Len Mullenger HUMPHREY SEARLE by David C. F. Wright Ph.D This article, or any part of it, must not be reproduced in part or in whole in any way whatsoever without prior written consent of the author. The complete article prints out on approximately 15 A4 sheets. Many composers suffer neglect and some are, or become, completely forgotten. Few composers, however, have been as badly treated as Humphrey Searle. He was born in Oxford on 26th August, 1915, one of three sons born to Humphrey Frederic, a civil servant, and Charlotte Mathilde May who, although born in England, had no English blood. Her father was Sir William Schlich, who came from Darmstadt in Germany, and Lady Schlich was of French, Belgian and Italian descent. Humphrey's paternal grandfather trained as an organist and was part of a musical family that lived in Devon. Searle's real awakening to music came in 1928 when he went to Winchester School, where he met Robert Irving and James Robertson. Irving was to become musical director of the Sadler's Wells Opera at the same time that Humphrey Searle was on its advisory panel in the 1950s. The availability of a gramophone at school enabled the three students to familiarize themselves with the classical repertoire and with such modern works as were recorded. Searle began to take harmony lessons with George Dyson, who was "profoundly impressed" by him. Having won a Classical scholarship to Oxford University, Searle went up in 1933 and, while he was absorbing the appropriate material for his degree, he pursued musical studies with Sydney Watson, the organist of New College.

Visit by composer Robert Jager highlights season finale Concerto competition winner Matt Janszen also featured Putting a personality behind the name that appears in the right hand corner of every piece of music has become a spring obsession for Purdue University Bands who brings one of the band world's elite to campus each year. Conductor/composer Robert Jager, who's as legendary for his sense of humor as the works that challenge all levels of musicians from junior high bands to professionals, gets the Elliott Hall spotlight in two season-ending concerts on Saturday and Sunday, April 24-25. The Varsity, Collegiate, and Purdue Concert Bands are featured at an 8 p.m. Saturday concert in Elliott Hall. The Purdue Symphonic Band and Symphony Orchestra perform there at 2:30 p.m. Sunday. Admission to both events is free with no tickets needed. On Sunday, Jager shares the spotlight with Purdue Concerto Competition winner Matt Janszen who will perform Gershwin's Concerto in F on piano with the orchestra. Jager's connection with Purdue, which goes back more than three decades, began in the era of Prof. Emeritus Al G. Wright and includes several visits to Purdue as well as a commissioned work titled “Cockney Rhapsody” that paid tribute to Wright's British heritage.

MAURICE WRIGHT REVIEWED The Art Of Starting A Season Why do we have to wait until the Philadelphia Orchestra starts performing to begin our classical music season? Together with Karil Middleman's innovative Philadelphia Classical Symphony, the Pennsylvania Academy Of Fine Arts answered that question resoundingly on September 15. Planning ahead for its current Maxfiedl Parrish show, PAFA recruited Middleman to oversee a contest for new works based on five Parrish favorites. Middleman told the large audience on hand for the results that 1,000 slides of his paintings were sent on request, and 59 entries were received. Every one of these [winning compositions] carried the evening's high standards, held aloft at the center by Temple University Professor Maurice Wright's " Landscape (Music After Arizona) ." This was a solidly organized depiction of desert images, unafraid to lapse from contemporary syntax into an antique minuet or a rhapsodic song for its totally absorbing contrasts. It was played by seven excellent soloists, conducted by the composer.... Why not open our season right after Labor Day if the serious fare is going to be this stimulating?

May 30, 1998 George Wright, 77, Theater Organist With a Cult Following By ROBERT McG. THOMAS Jr, eorge Wright, a master theater organist with such a deft touch it was said he could make a mighty Wurlitzer swing when it wasn't actually jitterbugging, died on May 10 at a Los Angeles hospital near his home atop the Hollywood Hills. He was 77. Friends said the cause was congestive heart failure. In an era of rock and rap it's easy to forget that the Wurlitzer was once the dominant musical instrument of the land, underscoring and heightening everything from tense cliffhangers to tender love scenes in the silent movie palaces of the 1920s. It is a tribute to the powerful appeal the soaring, multi-faceted music exerted on movie audiences that when the advent of talkies rendered the Wurlitzer redundant as instant sound track, theaters continued to schedule organ concerts before, between and after movie screenings. Wright was born too late for silent movie work, but it is a tribute to his artistry that he was packing them in at the Fox Theater in San Francisco in the 1940s, playing at sold-out houses at the Paramount Theater in New York as late as the 1950s, touring through the 1970s and turning out the most recent of his some 60 albums this past February. Along the way, he, like the Wurlitzer, acquired a cult following. And if that is another way of saying that theater
