THE CANONISATION of DEREK JARMAN: Toby Anderson @JAMontheMarsh
The Canonisation of Derek Jarman by Toby Anderson
Libretto by Grahame Davies
Premiered on 13 July 2024 at the JAM on the Marsh Festival
Ceferina Penny · soprano
Angelina Dorlin-Barlow · mezzo-soprano
Benedict Munden · tenor
James Emerson · bass
Travis Bloom · piano
John Frederick Hudson · conductor
SYNOPSIS:
Derek Jarman is sat in his garden at Prospect Cottage in Dungeness. While waiting to be canonised by the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a protest group of gay nuns, he is visited by three time-travellers from his 1978 film Jubilee. Queen Elizabeth I, Doctor John Dee, and Ariel from Shakespeare’s Tempest appear one by one and immediately begin to argue with Jarman about art, gardening, and music. In the second scene the conversation drifts to queerness, with each of the characters offering insights into the relationships between gay identity, England, alchemy, love, death, and gender. In the third and final scene the nuns arrive, much to the distress of Queen Elizabeth I, to perform the canonisation ceremony; after everything, the group comes together to assert that love is no peril, only hate.

SEEK HIM THAT MAKETH THE SEVEN STARS by Jonathan Dove @JAMontheMarsh
The music is quite beautiful!
Thank you. I will be looking at more of your videos. New subscriber. Can you tell me how you achieve microtones with the horn, say 1/4 tone. Do you use your hand in the bell to bend the pitch, or embouchere? or both depending on the amount of bend from the natural note. If writing microtones for horn should each microtone bear some kind of notation as to how that should be made? Also, when it comes to stops, you said if stop was written a horn player would know what that means. Were you saying that when a player completely stops the opening of the bell with their hand that is actually muting rather than stopping?...otherwise couldn't there be confusion about how much to cover the opening? I like the tip about a loudly played stopped note having that fuzzy or raspy sound...How loudly would you have to mark the score to achieve that quality. F or FF?
Can't agree about the key signatures. Everyone I ever played with had no problem reading key signatures. Having played both types, I found the scores that lacked key signatures to be a chore to read; my reaction was like "I know you're really in Eb, why won't you just admit it?". And it made it harder to catch mistakes in the score. When the engraver forgets one of the million accidentals, it looks exactly the same as deliberately going out of key, which a part with a key signature would make clear with an accidental.
What’s with all the swinging and swaying? I’m getting seasick.
they feel the music..
This piece goes so hard, sops have an amazing sound too
LOVE the intensity and soulfulness!!! AWESOME arrangement!
Absolutely GORGEOUS! You are one seriously talented musician.
Luckily, horn players can read key signatures. Just like Parisians actually CAN speak English
Brilliant, Brilliant, Brilliant ❤
Bravi to you all!
Its Beautiful😇
Sublime Merci pour ce moment de grâce
First time hearing their speaking voices. Great info!
Thanks for the masterclass, it is really helpful! I was unable to get the names of the String Quartets they were recommending to listen to (except Beethoven)... can someone list them please?
I was there to hear this live... that was experience but seeing my then 8 year old be apart of this was extraordinary 😊
Super helpful!! Thank you so much. I'm just writing a brass quintet and this is so perfect.
Your pedal is incredible awesome amazing The way your feet dance across the pedals Very enjoyable to watch
You're good at explaning and demostrating
Take a look at the attached PDF booklet with examples and you'll see the difference in the score. They were jumping from this C major chord to a high Eb major chord. (Andrea had to jump from E to a high Gb??) But this was funny. Voces8 are SO professional and serene in their manner that in all these 'bad' examples of this series they all remain ever so stoic. Only after Barney laughed a bit here did they break out in laughter for the silly writing.
Es una bella interpretación, me sorprende que tenga tan pocas visitas. Felicitaciones!
This has been very helpful thank you! As a studying composer whose main instrument is percussion, I’ve been struggling with the French horn but this helped a lot!
That was an inspirational performance of a brilliant piece of choral music. Thank you.
Whoever came up with the idea to do this series needs a raise
My register was terribly affected just by changing to a different bicycle seat
Look I felt genuinely concerned about the presence of Jabberwocks and was consequently rushed in getting the manuscript sent.
Mucho más claro! Genial
Very valuable material, thank you for that!
Lovely singing...but please, no swaying!
Great tips. Thank you both
Molly is really beautiful!
Great masterclass series! Really appreciative! As a guitar player who cannot play the piano and have no access to an organ, I can acknowledge how complex it is to write for such a grandiose instrument. I will stick to composing for orchestra and harpsichord.
Amazing your master class
You mentioned dynamic at the upper range (hard to play softly), what about down the bottom? It seems hard to play loudly down there.
Was für ein Monitor ist denn da angeschlossen?
Lovely work Jack 😊
What a beautifully presented video with excellent demonstrations, it was very informativefor me, thankyou.

Beautiful!
Mesmerising. Hope to see this live another time.
Wow I’ve learned so much you guys videos
This is a lovely piece.
