You're right, I haven't posted in a very long time. That's because of the usual sorts of reasons why people stop blogging. I actually started <i>this</i> post back in October but didn't have quite enough enthusiasm. But I have to post now, because this has just happened:</div>

I first joined eMusic back in 2001, when legal digital downloads were young. Enticed by new and exclusive recordings from They Might Be Giants, I stayed for a year before wandering off. This was back in the dial-up days, of course. It was "all you could eat" but each bite took a very long time. Aside from those TMBG tracks I discovered (notably) John Fahey and an interest in bizarre cover versions which persists to this day (shit, I never wrote that second post about the Thanksgiving Mix, did I?). The classical selection wasn't much good - there was Koch Classics plus some minor labels - and once I felt I'd gone as far as I could, it was time to leave.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I came back in 2005 when I discovered that some of the big independent labels had arrived - Naxos, BIS, Harmonia Mundi. The next few years were a joy - great music in great bargains, an entertaining community on the forum, the rise of Nereffid's Guide... Those last two things fell apart thanks to the site's disastrous attempt to become a mainstream retailer. But the music remained, even as eMusic kept trying to reinvent itself. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Oh man, the music. I got so many Mahler symphonies. So much Vaughan Williams. So much Handel. So much old jazz. So much early music. And more They Might Be Giants! And Mrs Nereffid, who subscribed for a few years, introduced us to so much non-classical - The Decemberists, The National, Tinariwen... Adele, for God's sake, Adele used to be on eMusic!

That was a blow, all right. Most of the classical music disappeared overnight. I looked at the wreckage and thought, "well, shit. But at least they've still got Naive". And then Naive disappeared too. Now basically it's Brilliant Classics and a handful of other not-especially-exciting labels. Time to go.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So yeah. It was a great 14 years (well, 13 and a bit before it all fell apart). Goodbye, eMusic, I'll miss y- <i>what's that? But don't I have a second subscription that still runs until December? </i>Well, er, yes, I do have that. But my original account, the one that says "eMusic member since 2001", is now defunct. And so, in a not strictly accurate but nevertheless very meaningful way, it is The End.</div>

That time of year...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So I listened to 183 classical albums this year, though for many of them I didn't hear them as much as I'd have liked. As usual, my listening is geared towards works I haven't heard before. I really should change this to "Favourite Albums" rather than "Best Albums", shouldn't I?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The now-traditional 11 categories apply; a winner and 4 runners-up in each category, plus a bonus of 5 more runners-up in the Contemporary Instrumental category because there were so many contenders. (Some 39% of all the albums fall into a Contemporary category!).</div>

<b>ALBUM OF THE YEAR</b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As with last year, there hasn't been one particular album that's stood above all the others in terms of enjoyment. Before I pick the album of the year, a couple of special mentions: the Hans Zimmer collection really surprised me in terms of just how much I liked it; this despite an almost obnoxious overhyping by the record label ("recording event of the year... stunning... world's most exciting musicians...") of what is, after all, "only" film music - yes, I did have to overcome a wee bit of doubt as to whether the contemporary album I most enjoyed <i>deserved</i> to get the award! And the German vocal group Calmus Ensemble also deserves mention for its pair of Luther-inspired releases - a winner in the Medieval/Renaissance category (with, it must be said, a few modern touches here and there) and a runner-up in the Multiple Vocal.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But this year's Album of the Year is an excellent reminder to me that there's still plenty of splendid mainstream 20th-century music still be explored: Chandos's recording of <b>Antheil's orchestral works</b> - volume 1 it says, and if this first release is anything to go by there could be many riches in store, and in fact it prompted me to also get the CPO release that appears as a runner-up in the orchestral category.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The labels</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The 60 nominees & winners were released by 36 different labels. Well done this year to Alpha, which scored a very impressive 3 winners. I was delighted to see the label return to eMusic - <i>always </i>the best way to ensure I'll get an album - and then equally undelighted to see it vanish again! And speaking of which, this year also sees a complete absence of Harmonia Mundi from my best-of for the first time, mostly a consequence of the label no longer being available to me through eMusic. With Hyperion and the majors I know by now I'll have to pay full price, but I haven't yet come round to thinking that way about Harmonia Mundi.<br />
<br />
<b>And also</b><br />
What else can we note about this year's awards?
The Lutheran theme was continued with Vox Luminis's winner in the Baroque Vocal category. There must have been an anniversary or something. Cecile Licad's first "Anthology of American Piano Music" volume was a runner-up last year, so it was good to see the standard remain so high. Let's also note a nice winner in the Concerto category:
"Mind Music" is a <i>charity album,</i> which is to say that it's a fundraiser for Parkinsons UK. And finally let's observe that the Bang on a Can All-Stars have featured on a winning disc 3 times in the past 4 years. I do love them, and if I were a better blogger I'd have written about seeing them (and the JACK Quartet) at one of the Steve Reich birthday concerts in Carnegie Hall in April.
<br />
<b>That's it</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
With my listening time now greatly reduced compared to previous years (a negative consequence of a positive change!) I suspect that 2018 will be the year in which I greatly cut back on new releases, and also perhaps rely more on services like Spotify to focus only on the (potential) "best of the best". It may be on a small scale, but the eternal quest to find More Great Music continues...<b> </b></div>

Between October of last year and February of this year, I followed up my "A la carte" polls of most-liked classical works with a series of 43 A la carte Composer Polls. The same principles applied: in each poll, participants selected whichever of 14 composers they liked, with an option to say "I don't know or don't like any of them". 43 polls allowed me to slightly exceed 600 composers, which sounds like a lot - well, it <i>is</i> a lot! - but nonetheless required me to be more selective than I wished. The primary motivation for this set of polls was <a href="http://www.talkclassical.com/45527-do-you-enjoy-all.html" target="_blank">a thread</a> started by TalkClassical regular mmsbls, which asked "Do you enjoy all the "top" composers?". I had (as my first contribution to the thread stated) already thought about doing composer polls, but I was spurred into action by the discovery that the 3 composers that seemed to be most responsible for people saying they didn't enjoy all of mmsbls's "top 10" were Wagner, Schumann and Handel - which was matched by my analysis of the popularity of these composers' works on the A la carte polls.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img border="0" data-original-height="573" data-original-width="1021" height="222" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtDX2mpK8ou_aTZxXaolIDkfTPxeH8cjKXB6mq_8llPf-4PKXRvbc4c0oNrVbGFsUi4W0G78k2LgTVck3P0-Y2exVDIdGg4Q6qgQNcvNO7xTh9_W5mNr9qHKnSoJdbg_Xyq5ZjIlePzBk/s400/Composer+polls.PNG" width="400" /></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I can't remember how many composers I was going to include at first, or at what point I knew I'd have to have a "don't know/don't like" option (with a max of 15 options, having that option means I end up with multiples of 14 composers rather than 15, which is annoying if I want a total number ending in 0!) but eventually I settled on 504. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But which composers should I include? There's a couple of hundred obvious ones that had to be included, but who then? Fortunately I have my painstakingly constructed spreadsheet that gives number of Arkiv recordings (now several years out of date but still useful) and length of 1980 <i>New Grove</i> entry for many many composers, so it was reasonably easy to select most of them. The difficulty came in deciding where to draw the line, or rather multiple lines because I wanted to be sure that the whole history of "classical" was adequately covered. One (Johannes Eccard) got no votes whatsoever, so it's reasonable to imagine that there are hundreds of other composers more popular than him.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For the nerd record, here's <i>exactly</i> how I settled on the final list. First I sorted the composers by birth decade and then by Arkiv recordings, and gave 1 point to the top 5 in each decade (or fewer than 5 if it was a "weak" decade) and 0.5 points to any others that had a lot of recordings (this being a somewhat arbitrary decision). Then I did the same for <i>New Grove</i> entry length, but not giving out 0.5 scores in this case. Seeing as my <i>New Grove</i> is the 1980 edition, this put modern composers at a severe disadvantage, but the online version lets you know how long (in words) a composer's entry is, so I got those figures for all composers born in the 1920s to 1950s. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Totting up the scores gave me 514 composers but then it got tricky again because some of them still seemed <i>unlikely</i> candidates. Anyone with 2 points was definitely included (oddly, there was no one with 1.5 points). But going through earlier composers that scored high with <i>New Grove</i> I found many that had relatively few recordings and thus were unlikely to be known, certainly compared with other less-early composers. For instance, Leonhard Lechner's <i>New Grove</i> entry is about 6 times longer than Franz Schmidt's, but the latter has 5 times as many recordings, so although Schmidt failed on both original criteria he's a much better candidate (in the end, 26% of people said they liked him). All told, 66 composers were parachuted in instead of others, and 10 more were removed altogether, giving a final list of 504, filling out exactly 36 polls. Not as ambitious as the works polls, but that was an open-ended project that evolved over time, whereas this had to be planned in advance. One important aspect was to ensure the composers were well balanced; I needed to have popular ones in each poll to draw people in. Cue some sort of ordering system I can't quite remember that also took into account my need to spread the composers around chronologically too.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And then when I'd sorted that out and actually posted a few polls on TC, I decided I wanted to increase the number of composers to 602, i.e. 7 more polls! In particular, I wanted more living composers but also there were several composers about whose popularity I was curious or that I thought would prove more popular than their position in the selection process might indicate. Selecting those 98 composers was basically my own judgement.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's interesting now to compare the results of the polls to the way in which the composers were selected. Although Bernardo Pasquini was selected in the top 5 composers of the 1630s by both Arkiv and <i>New Grove</i>, he scored under 2% (2 out of 119 voters liked him). Whereas Kurt Atterberg, who didn't even make the original list of 504 composers, scored 29% and finished in the top 200 composers. But then again, David Gillingham was parachuted into the list of 504 and <i>he</i> scored less than 1%! So I'm not necessarily the best judge. But as I always say, a data point is a data point, and now we know Pasquini and Gillingham aren't popular composers.</div>

I was pleased with the response to the polls but was well aware of the ineradicable problems with trying to do a poll series on TC: you need enough voters for the results to have some sort of statistical reliability, but you also need enough <i>regular </i>voters for you to be able to compare one poll with another. After a bit of an advertising push once the polls were completed, I was delighted that all but one poll ended up with at least 100 voters (poll 40 had 99). All told, 235 people participated, and I'd so love it if they'd all voted in all of the polls. But 88 people <i>did</i> vote in all of them, which was enough in itself to make some generalisations.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One rather <i>un</i>gratifying aspect of the polls was <a href="http://www.talkclassical.com/showthread.php?t=48220&p=1213945&viewfull=1#post1213945" target="_blank">the appearance</a> in my discussion of the results of a trollish individual named MartinD, who really didn't approve of the poll methodology despite my constant protestation that he was taking things too seriously. Inevitably the fact that my top 3 wasn't Bach-Mozart-Beethoven (in some order) drew ire, but the whole thing was a disgrace as far as he was concerned. This MartinD character was active on TC for about 3 months, and the majority of his posts seem to have been direct or oblique attacks on me. Weird. One other person named Genoveva also took me to task <a href="http://www.talkclassical.com/45843-la-carte-composer-poll.html" target="_blank">during poll 8</a>, for similar reasons. I know that with 50 or 100 people you certainly can't extrapolate any result to the wider world, but it's very frustrating when serious people go on the offensive and try to, well, <i>ruin other people's fun.</i> The criticisms helped me better understand what I was trying to do, and <i>not</i> trying to do, but they left a bad taste in the mouth and were a contributor to my slowness to revisit the results. Side note: by a remarkable coincidence, Genoveva's last activity on TC was a couple of days before MartinD joined the forum.</div>

The "leaderboard" is on <a href="https://sites.google.com/site/nereffid/composers-leaderboard" target="_blank">Nereffid Supplemental</a>. Unfortunately some people put too much store in the rankings - I fall back on them myself sometimes! - but it's the most convenient shorthand. The % score achieved by each composer is the most important thing, but it's handier to think "that composer's in the top 100" than "that composer got more than about 37%".</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I love Edgar Wright's new movie, <i>Baby Driver. </i>The plot's a familiar tale of a getaway driver who falls in love and wants to escape his life of crime, but what elevates the movie into the stratosphere is its use of music. Ansel Elgort's title character, Baby, has tinnitus and keeps his iPod running as much as possible, with a tune to suit every mood and situation, and throughout the movie Wright cuts the action - not just the set-piece chase sequences, pretty much <i>everything</i> - to fit the music. The soundtrack includes most of what's used in the movie, and it's a great blend of rock, soul, R&B and jazz.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
And no classical.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
But why would there be? Don't get me wrong - this isn't a moan about people not appreciating classical music. Classical does get used well in some movies and TV, but its link to criminality tends to be confined to a character trait of a detective (Morse, Wallander) or a cold-blooded killer: think of Hannibal Lecter's love of the <i>Goldberg variations,</i> or Stanley Tucci as Adolf Eichmann in <i>Conspiracy,</i> listening to Schubert's quintet after organising the Final Solution. When used to accompany action, it tends towards naffness like the use of the <i>1812 Overture</i> as the climax to that Jeff Bridges/Tommy Lee Jones things-exploding movie <i>Blown Away.</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
So having enjoyed <i>Baby Driver</i> a couple of times, I got to thinking: <i>You could never use classical music in a movie like that. But what if you </i>could<i>?</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
And thus was born "Mozart in a Go-Kart" (a line from the movie): my foolhardy attempt to create, track by track, a classical "equivalent" of the <i>Baby Driver</i> soundtrack. It's in the form of a Spotify playlist, available via the web player <a href="https://t.co/wY2jFgiX7f" target="_blank">here</a>, or you can listen below:</div>

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
It started off as a totally ridiculous idea, of course, but a few things immediately presented themselves. Blur's <i>Intermission</i>, for instance, is a cheesy instrumental that simply repeats itself, speeding up to a high-powered climax - which is a pretty good description of Grieg's <i>In the Hall of the Mountain King</i>. Wagner's <i>Ride of the Valkyries</i>, while undoubtedly more of a cliché than The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion's <i>Bellbottoms</i> which begins the movie, shares that track's sense of massive anticipation as it begins. And <i>Tequila</i>? Bernstein's <i>Mambo</i>, natch.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
There are quite a few bits of the original soundtrack that are instrumentals - such as a Dave Brubeck piece drowning out Kevin Spacey while he's laying out the plan for a heist - but the crucial thing here in trying to find a classical match is the notion of <i>pulse.</i> A quote from Steve Reich that I'm prepared to trot out at any opportunity is this: "Brahms is a great composer... but I don't want to hear a note of it, not
now, not later, not ever. Same thing for Mahler, Wagner, Sibelius. If
it all disappeared tomorrow, I wouldn't even know. If you don't follow that discipline of a fixed beat, I'm not interested." And when it comes to finding classical music that somehow "feels" like tracks such as <i>Egyptian Reggae</i> or <i>Bongolia</i>, Reich's right: you need that ever-present pulse, pushing things forward, not the more complex, less rhythmically inclined music that dominates what the wider public knows as "classical". As a result, I found that all the <i>Baby Driver</i> instrumentals would be replaced by Baroque music or new(ish) music. (Which occasionally allowed me to cheat a bit, because some of the modern stuff has a jazz or R&B influence...)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The other big obstacle to be faced was sex. Classical music just doesn't do sex. Oh, sure, there's plenty of love and romance, and <i>Tristan und Isolde</i> is basically just a three-and-a-half hour orgasm, but I think we can all agree that, however much they may share the same general philosophical premise, <i>O soave fanciulla</i> isn't <i>Be my baby.</i> So in the end, for the vocal tracks that follow Baby and Debora's love story, I had to wing it a bit more. <i>Greensleeves</i> has nothing lyrically to do with T. Rex's <i>Debora</i>, but Joel Frederiksen's version has what felt to me like a suitable groove. The movie's closer, Simon & Garfunkel's <i>Baby Driver</i> lacks both streams and water-nymphs, but given where it falls in the narrative sequence, Schubert's <i>Wohin?</i> is surprisingly appropriate. I'm quite pleased with <i>Gretchen am Spinnrade</i> as a substitute for <i>Nowhere to Run. </i>And I'm also proud of noting that <i>Nessun dorma!</i> is thematically similar to <i>Never, Never Gonna Give You Up</i>, while simultaneously Big Lucy is morphologically similar to the Walrus of Love.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
As for my replacing Beck's <i>Debra</i> ("Ain't no use in wastin' no time gettin' to know each other / You know the deal / Cause only you got a thing / That I just got to get with") with Mozart's <i>Exsultate Jubilate</i>,
well yes, that is a bit cheeky, but I mean come on, we all know that
most of the religious music ever written is just love songs with
theological lyrics. Also, I offer no apology for swapping The Young MC for a bloke singing into a tuba. It just had to happen.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
In conclusion, let us be clear: It is not possible to create a movie like <i>Baby Driver</i> using only classical music in its soundtrack. But if it <i>were</i> possible, then "Mozart in a Go-Kart" might be what it would sound like.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

No, I don't blog much anymore, but this is a tradition I must keep going.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I reckon I heard 192 new albums in 2016, and few were disappointing. I have a good idea what I'm going to like, so it's easy to avoid what I probably won't enjoy. As before, everything's slotted into 11 categories, though in a slight change I've altered "Living composer" to "Contemporary", the category covering basically my lifetime.</div>

<b>ALBUM OF THE YEAR</b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Although it's been a splendid year all round - hence my desire to provide images for all the albums rather than merely listing the runners-up - it's been different from other years in that there isn't a single album (or handful of albums) that stands as the obvious best. So I've decided on a more symbolic choice this time: Lara Downes's "America Again" is my album of the year because Fuck Donald Trump. Here's a collection of piano music recorded by an African-American woman of Jamaican and Jewish parentage; the composers featured are immigrants, or people of colour, or women; and the concept was inspired by the Charleston church murders and Downes's reading of Langston Hughes, particularly his 1938 "Let America Be America Again" (<a href="https://www.poemhunter.com/poem/let-america-be-america-again/" target="_blank">go read it!</a>), whose final words - "make America again!" - now unfortunately carry pre-echoes of Orange Benito's campaign slogan. It's a superb mix of pieces and a worthy winner - but given the new regime's contempt for the arts (and so much else), I suppose <i>any</i> classical album is a fuck-you. But let's move on.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The Labels</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The 55 nominees encompass 38 labels, or 36 if we count Warner/Erato and DG/Decca as one each. Naxos got 4 nominations, the most of any label. The 11 winners were all from different labels, and some small labels did well, with wins for Blue Griffin and Capella de Ministrers's own label.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The Repertoire</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Perhaps the rise of the smaller labels simply reflects the continued drift of these awards into obscure territories as I continue exploring. The win for Petrenko's Tchaikovsky kind of stands out as a success for mainstream classical. Occasionally I'm tempted by a recording of material I already have, but at this stage my attitude is <i>why repeat? - unless the new release offers what looks to be a much more appealing performance than the one I have.</i> And those obscurities are well deserving of greater attention.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The End</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So that was 2016. Will we reconvene a year from now? I hope so, though work now means I have much less time for listening. Perhaps I'll have to be more selective. Perhaps this will be the year eMusic finally collapses and my source of cheap legal downloads disappears. Whatever happens, classical music still seems to be going strong. </div>

If you go to the Google Sites page <a href="https://sites.google.com/site/nereffid/home" target="_blank">Nereffid supplemental</a>, you can see the results of several months' worth of polls I conducted on TalkClassical last year and this.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
TC users (some of them, at any rate) like to produce "recommended lists" that rank favourite works; just recently I hosted the Pre-1700 Works list. But the way these are done requires that participants have to choose which work to favour over another, and there's often going to be a clash between what you personally prefer and what you think <i>should</i> be on a list (for example, there's the desire to spread things round, and not let one composer dominate). When the Post-1950 Works list started, I was somewhat troubled - first because the voting system was terrible and second because some participants stated clearly that post-1950 music of a certain sort was not welcome (ie, Shostakovich). Round about this time I also started to become more interested in the notion of the classical "canon" and how one might go about quantifying it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So I hit on the notion of a basic poll, where the voter is faced with a list of works and must simply pick the ones they like; putting all the results together would effectively produce a "recommended list" but without the complication of any individual having to rank anything. One interesting aspect of this is that a work that gets plenty of votes is not only well-liked but also <i>well-known</i>. There would no doubt be many works that might be seen as canonical by a handful of people but to the wider listening public they would be unfamiliar - and post-1950 works are a prime example. My original notion was that the polls would each focus on a particular year, so that bit-by-bit I could produce a list to reveal which post-1950 works people <i>really</i> liked. After a couple of dozen polls I got the feeling that some voters just didn't bother participating if it was an era they had no interest in (it's a curious thing; I added the "I don't know any of these works" option to overcome this, but it doesn't seem to encourage everyone), so I switched to themed polls and then, not wishing to put so much intellectual effort in if it wasn't going to pay off, just randomized lists of works. I got past 200 polls but they appeared to be running out of steam so I called a halt; but that was over 2,600 works, with at least 30 people (usually quite a few more) offering an opinion on each one.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There are the inevitable quirks you get when the polling population is different for each poll, and certainly the TC population overall has a few quirks too, but the collated results are largely what one might expect. Back in February, when I passed 2,000 works, I started a <a href="http://www.talkclassical.com/41986-music-we-like-examining.html" target="_blank">discussion thread</a> on the topic.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It turns out that, yes, Shostakovich does seem to dominate post-1950 music!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One of the most fascinating discoveries was that - bearing in mind that TalkClassical's active members are by definition people who are enthusiastic about classical music - <i>only 20% of the works were liked by at least half of the voters.</i> Bear in mind too that the polls covered practically all of the "canonical"
works (I didn't get all Beethoven's piano sonatas in, for instance, but
that's the highest level of omission I'm talking about). And <i>only 5% of the works</i> (130 of them) were liked by at least two-thirds of voters. And of those 130, 43 are by Beethoven and Mozart! So what on earth <i>is</i> the canon? Surely, for instance, <i>La Traviata</i> and <i>Parsifal</i> are part of it? Well, they were liked by about 42% of voters in the A la carte polls, putting them well below Mendelssohn's 1st string quartet, Prokofiev's <i>Scythian Suite,</i> Chopin's op.41 Mazurkas, Bach's Toccata in C minor BWV 911... Clearly, the canon can't be defined by votes alone, and there are numerous other factors involved (vocal works generally are less popular than orchestral music in the polls; and some composers are so popular that <i>even when I invented a fake Bach cantata it got enough votes to put it in the top three-quarters of the overall rankings!</i>). But still, the undeniable implication of the poll results is that a work that is considered canon may well be unliked or unknown by a majority of self-professed classical music enthusiasts.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This post has gone on for a bit; if I remain in a posting mood there'll be plenty more analysis and vague thoughts to come...</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've been messing about with the big database (well, spreadsheet) of composers that I first started to keep about a quarter-century ago. Turns out it really needed updating... Joaquin Rodrigo's death in 1999 hadn't been noted, for example!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A more recent addition to the spreadsheet was a column for the number of recordings of each composer's music on Arkiv. I've found this to be a handy pointer as to a composer's "significance" (maybe someday I'll write a proper post on my thoughts regarding "great composers" and popularity). It's not a perfect measure, because of course it depends on the number of recordings in stock at Arkiv at a given moment, not to mention on Arkiv's ability to tag everything correctly, <i>and</i> the fact that browsing versus searching can give slightly different results. But anyway, on a broad level it works fine.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So then it occurred to me, why not see who are the most-recorded composers of a given birth cohort, let's say each decade, which was a matter of a few minutes' work. Interesting results, if you're interested in ranked lists of similarly aged composers, but could they be used to tell a bigger picture? The graph above says yes. (Double-click to enlarge it)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Let's look at the blue line first, which uses the left-hand y axis. What I've done here is looked at the 10 most-recorded composers born in each decade, added up all their recordings, and divided by 10 (i.e., it's the average number of recordings for those 10 composers). You can see it bobs up and down a bit, and when you know when the best-known composers were born it starts to make a lot of sense. The huge peak for the 1680s corresponds to Bach and Handel (and Telemann and D Scarlatti); the 1750s and 1770s peaks are due to Mozart and Beethoven, respectively, the 1790s are Schubert and Rossini, and the even huger peak for the 1810s is for Verdi, Schumann, Chopin, Liszt and Wagner (in that order). It bounces a bit, more, then after the 1870s (Ravel and Rachmaninoff) it drops again but this time doesn't really recover; the 1920s represents the lowest point since the 1760s. Who are the two most-recorded composers born in the 1760s? Cherubini and Danzi. And the 1920s? Piazzolla and Ligeti (if you don't wan't to include Piazzolla because tangos aren't classical enough, then it's Ligeti and Malcolm Arnold). And the decline continues, with the most-recorded composers born in the 1960s being about as well-recorded as those born three or four centuries earlier. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
(Caveat, though I don't think it's significant enough to affect the general picture: the closer we get to the present day, the less likely it is that my composers database reflects the overall state of classical music; for instance, most of the 1980s-born composers in the database are those I'm interested in. The reason I don't think this is a problematic issue is that my data-gathering involved finding "significant" composers via Arkiv, so while I may have omitted hundreds of worthy contemporary composers, they're not people with a large number of recordings. Obviously, that <i>number of recordings</i> is an acceptable proxy is something we're taking as read, but it's not unreasonable to say that for younger composers it's not as relevant).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But the red line on the graph adds more depth to the picture. This one, which uses the right-hand y axis, is simply a count of the number of composers who have 30 or more recordings listed on Arkiv. The 30 is somewhat arbitrary, I grant, but there's no particular "correct" number, so let's go with that. It corresponds to over 700 composers, so it covers a lot of ground. For instance, the composers born in the 1500s who fall in that group are Tallis, Luis da Milan, Luis de Narvaez, Gombert, Morales, Tye, and Arcadelt (but not Juan Vasquez, Hans Neusiedler, or Girolamo Cavazzoni) - comprehensive enough, I think.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So what are the results here? A quite differently shaped graph. Aside from the peak in the 1680s (which includes, it must be noted, such non-household names as Loeillet and Heinichen), the graph trends upwards from the beginning of the 19th century all the way to the generation of the 1890s (from Prokofiev down to Leifs and Sorabji) and despite a drop holds itself steady up to and including the generation of the 1930s (from Pärt to the geographically coincident Tormis)... and <i>then</i> it drops, then drops again.<br />
What's happening here is that, whereas the blue line shows that the <i>top </i>composers active from the beginning of the 20th century have been less well-recorded than their 19th-century predecessors, the red line shows that <i>many more</i> composers active in the 20th century have been recorded compared with the 19th century. Not too surprising, I hope: the "great" composers of the past loom large, and resemble the true planets as defined by the IAU in as much as they've cleared the neighbourhood around their orbit, whereas there still hasn't been a full reckoning of the composers of the recent past, and as for today's composers - who knows?<br />
But is that the sole reason for the drop over the course of the 20th century? The decline is rather swift, after all. If we reconvene in 100 years time, how will the graph have changed? Will the 20th century now show a similar pattern to previous centuries, with a greater focus on a smaller number of composers? Or will the thing people call "classical music" still refer to the period between Bach and Shostakovich, with the rest as interesting but relatively unpopular outliers? Depends on how optimistic or pessimistic you are, or for that matter how much you care for (or about) new music.</div>

I suddenly developed a desire to produce single-composer samplers of about 90-100 minutes' duration and inflict them on the world in the form of 8tracks mixes. So far there's a couple each for Beethoven and Mozart, and also some for Bach, Schubert, Brahms, Debussy, Mahler and Sibelius. You can find them on <a href="http://8tracks.com/nereffid" target="_blank">my profile page</a>. Those are the composers that informally top the list of favourite composers from my TalkClassical polls, of which I have said nothing on this blog. I really should do a set of posts on those polls, shouldn't I, but in the meantime some findings are <a href="https://sites.google.com/site/nereffid/" target="_blank">here</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So far, after a few weeks, the 8tracks nixes haven't quite set the world on fire - not quite the right audience, really - but I'm intrigued to find that Mahler's had the most plays and likes (25 and 5, respectively). Are people specifically looking for Mahler, or was it the "symphony" tag that did it? I've added that tag to the unsuccessful Sibelius mix (1 play, 1 like!) to see if that makes a difference. More mixes to come, hopefully.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In a <a href="http://nereffid.blogspot.ie/2014/10/what-kids-are-listening-to-these-days.html" target="_blank">post</a> about 20 months ago, I examined the success or otherwise of the mixes accompanying my (alas, currently dead-in-the-water) History of Classical Music through Recordings. It seems like a good idea to see where things stand now:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The October 2014 listens/likes in parentheses are followed by the July 2016 figures.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Part 1. Gregorian chant - (2,971 / 211) - 4,002 /250<br />
Part 2. From chant to polyphony - (1,227 / 126) - 1,812 / 167<br />
Part 3. Troubadours and trouvères - (464 / 56) - 771 / 76<br />
Part 4. Troubadour influences - (243 / 27) - 328 / 38<br />
Part 5. The 13th-century motet - (432 / 38) - 915 / 55<br />
Part 6. Ars nova - (1,478 / 74) - 1,953 / 95<br />
Part 7. Trecento Italy - (1,745 / 108) - 2,392 / 147<br />
Part 8. Medieval England - (447 / 44) - 576 / 49</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Part 9. The Burgundian school - (205 / 10) - 271 / 21</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Part 10. Into the Renaissance (not done) - 1,015 / 38</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The final mix has done well; again, maybe a tagging issue? Fascinating how parts 4 and 9 in particular have fared so poorly relative to the others.</div>

The big story this year is the triumph of new music. The plethora of asterisks above is one indicator, but in fact some 12 living-composer albums made it into my MiG top 30 (5 in the top 10), and David Lang's marvellous opera <i>The Difficulty of Crossing a Field</i> is my <b>Album of the Year.</b> I'm delighted to have finally found "my" new music; for years I'd been dutifully trying out the highest-placing releases in the Nereffid's Guide Awards without ever really being satisfied (some exceptions, of course). Once I started to follow my own instincts, the rewards increased, but the big breakthrough came in 2014 when I took a punt on John Luther Adams's <i>Become Ocean</i> and Wolfe's <i>Steel Hammer</i> (God, the agonising over whether, despite the apparently unpromising first movement, I should try it!) and then the floodgates opened once I attended the What? Wow! festival in March (a year ago now... and apparently there's no festival this year because all the arts money is being spent on 1916...). So 2015 saw me embrace post-minimalism with gusto - and a bunch of really good Philip Glass releases brought him back into my heart after too long feeling a bit dissatisfied with his more recent work (it turns out it <i>was</i> just me). </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The ironic thing is that I realised, while raiding the Cantaloupe back catalogue, that post-minimalism had been there <i>all along</i> in my collection, waiting. About 20 years ago I bought an Argo sampler called "Short Cuts" filled with new music; and one of the tracks - which I loved - was an excerpt from Michael Gordon's <i>Yo Shakespeare</i>. But I never followed up on it, or him. I finally heard the full piece last year! It's an intriguing "what if", but it's not like I regret the last two decades of classical listening. Perhaps the time just wasn't right, back then. After all, this year has thrown out a few other surprises in terms of things I didn't really think I'd ever have much interest in. Messiaen, for instance - I could never quite warm to him, but there he is, winning the Choral category. Or even to have two Mozart recordings in the Concerto category - a few years ago that might have seemed a bit too "safe" or even boring, but those Hyperion releases are a joy. So my tastes continue to evolve...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
... and great musicians continue to release albums of great music... </div>

Q2 Music's annual poll was different this year: previously, listeners have been asked to pick their favourite works from the last 100 years, but this time round the timeframe has been reduced to a more "new" 20 years. So farewell then, <i>Music for 18 Musicians,</i> which had come top for the last three years (<i>The Rite of Spring</i> won the inaugural poll).</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
In fact, looking at last year's poll (which had 100 works rather than this year's 50), the highest now-eligible entry was John Luther Adams's <i>Become Ocean</i>, at #37. Six other post-1995 works appeared: the other John Adams's <i>Dharma at Big Sur</i> (#43), Thomas Adès's <i>Asyla</i> (#52), Caroline Shaw's <i>Partita for 8 Voices</i> (#53), David Lang's <i>Little Match Girl Passion</i> (#72), George Friedrich Haas's <i>In Vain</i> (#74), and Steve Reich's <i>Double Sextet</i> (#85). Other pieces had featured in previous years.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's hard to know with any audience poll just how (a) large and (b) stable the voting population is. The latter can be answered by noting that the above seven works all appeared in this year's top thirteen. So either the list reflects the tastes of a tiny handful of people whose opinions haven't changed much, or (much more likely) it demonstrates that there are some definite crowd-pleasers that stand a chance of eventually becoming enshrined as classics.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's a good list, isn't it? I know most of the pieces - although some rushed listening was necessary in the last few days. Voters could pick five works, and three of mine got in - <i>Become Ocean, Grá agus Bás</i> and <i>Steel Hammer</i> (the other two were <span class="st">Per Nørgård's 8th string quartet and David Lang's <i>The Difficulty of Crossing a Field</i>). It's especially pleasing that the very Irish <i>Grá agus Bás</i> has proved so popular. Do I have quibbles? Not really. I like some things more than others, naturally, but nothing makes me go "<i>really?</i>". Of course probably the most significant thing about the list is that it very much reflects Q2's "downtown" New York audience. I can imagine some modern-music fans scratching their heads, or even tearing their hair, at all the minimalism, post-minimalism, and post-classical, or whatever we're calling it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="st">Something else that caught my eye is how the Pulitzer Prize-winning works have done: the last three winners have been <i>Anthracite Fields, Become Ocean</i>, and <i>Partita for 8 Voices</i> - they came #21, #2, and #1, respectively. We also see the winners from 2010 (Higdon, #25), 2009 (Lang's <i>Passion, #5</i>), 2008 (Reich, #13), and 2003 (Adams's <i>Transmigration</i>, #16). On the broader polls of previous years, older Pulitzer winners didn't do well (<i>Appalachian Spring</i> being an exception) - but then, would (for example) Stephen Albert's first symphony ever stand a chance in a field that included Bartók, Shostakovich, et al?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="st">So, can we make any sweeping statements about contemporary music? Not quite - the specificity of the Q2 audience precludes anything too general. But certainly "this kind of music" has an audience, not just on an Internet radio station - you can see it in various end-of-year lists, which in 2015 have welcomed the new works from Julia Wolfe, Sarah Kirkland Snider, John Luther Adams, Andrew Norman, and Anna Thorvaldsdottir. Oh - that reminds me of another interesting thing about Q2's list. Notice how three of the five names I just mentioned are women? Things are changing. Almost a quarter of the works on the Q2 list (12 of 50) are by women. Last year's poll with 100 works from 100 years had... two (Shaw's <i>Partita</i> and Meredith Monk's 1979 <i>Dolmen Music</i>). So there's your sweeping statement about contemporary music: the gender balance is much better.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Today we visit Bernard Haitink's recording of Beethoven's <i>Missa Solemnis,</i> recently released on BR Klassik.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Take it away, James A. Altena of <i>Fanfare:</i></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="TIMES">Rather surprisingly, Bernard Haitink added Beethoven’s </span><span class="TIMESi">Missa solemnis</span><span class="TIMES">
to his repertoire for the first time only a year or so ago.
Unfortunately, whether that indicates a lack of elemental sympathy with
the work, or whether the conductor simply has not had time to absorb the
score with sufficient depth, this is a deeply disappointing reading
that never rises above anodyne mediocrity.</span></div>
</blockquote>
Meanwhile on Musicweb, here's John Quinn:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
This is an inspired and inspiring performance. We may have had to wait a
long time for a Haitink recording of this great work but, my goodness, the
wait has been worthwhile. His interpretation is distinguished from first
note to last and, in summary, I come back to the word “wise”.</blockquote>
Altena:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span class="TIMES">Haitink here is the leaden Dutchman rather than the
flying one; although the total time for the performance puts it a bit on
the brisker side of the spectrum, it feels plodding, as the conductor
dutifully moves from measure to measure with no greater vision or
objective. There is no forming of larger arcs or units, no inflection or
shaping of phrases, simply a largely lukewarm sameness of temperature.
Any notion of building momentum, of creating and releasing dramatic
tension, is absent. </span></blockquote>
Quinn:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
At the time of
this performance he was 85 and while there’s absolutely no sign of age
diminishing his energy what is abundantly evident is that we are hearing a
performance into which the accumulated wisdom and experience of six decades
of conducting has been invested. I found this a profoundly satisfying
reading in which everything seemed just right.</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Altena:</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="TIMES">The orchestra and chorus do what is asked of them to
professional standards, but one has the sense that their hearts are not
in it.</span></div>
</blockquote>
Quinn:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
the Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks proves yet
again that it is currently one of the finest of all European ensembles ... right from the start
one is impressed by the warmth and depth of the orchestral sound and by the
excellence of the choir.</blockquote>
Altena:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span class="TIMES">Even if there were stronger leadership from the
podium, this performance would be sunk by the substandard work of its
solo vocal quartet.</span></blockquote>
Quinn:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Haitink also benefits from the presence of a splendid quartet of
soloists</blockquote>
Altena:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span class="TIMES">This one, alas, is a non-starter.</span></blockquote>
Quinn:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
There are several fine recordings of <i>Missa
solemnis</i> but this one has now to be counted as one of the leading
recommendations. </blockquote>

OK, maybe your lives are really exciting and you have lunch with the Dalai Lama every other week, but some of us have empty meaningless existences and we're pathetic enough to experience a tiny thrill when the Number Of People I've Actually Seen In Real Life And Even Said A Few Words To Who Have Won Pulitzer Prizes goes from zero to one.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

</tbody></table>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There was this thing on the telly the other night... sorry, I mean, <i>I watched a programme on BBC4 on Friday</i>, in which musicologist Martin Jarvis put forward his theory that Anna Magdalena Bach was the true composer of the music we call "Bach's cello suites". He's been (controversially) saying this for some years now, but it was the first I'd heard of it. <i>Written by Mrs Bach</i> kicked off a little passive-aggressively with an epigraph from John Locke on the value of not being too quick to dismiss apparently crackpot ideas (I'm paraphrasing), but in fairness I did try to keep an open mind during the show. It's easy to have a knee-jerk reaction to this sort of claim, challenging as it does some sacred cows about music, and so yes, one should judge by the evidence rather than just assuming straight-off that he's wrong. Presenter Sally Beamish seemed to be coming at Jarvis's theory more from a "woman-composer" perspective, which is to say she didn't seem especially committed to the idea but was more like "well, why <i>couldn't</i> a woman compose this music?" A fair question, but at times I felt the attitude of the show (not necessarily Beamish herself) strayed a little close to "if you dismiss this theory, you're a hidebound conservative and sexist".</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, what of the evidence? There wasn't much there, really. A handwriting expert indicated that Bach met (and collaborated with) his future second wife when she was just 12, but aside from that there was little handwriting evidence other than hunches that Bach compositions long known to be in Anna Magdalena's hand looked a bit more composed-y rather than copied-y.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The bombshell evidence was supposed to be the title page of Anna Magdalena's copy of the cello suites. Bach pupil Georg Schwanberg had written in the corner "<i>Ecrite par Madame Bachen, Son Epouse"</i>. Well, aside from the fact that the program avoided any musicological evidence that someone other than JS had written the music, this seemed to settle it. Until - in fairness to the program - a sceptical Ruth Tatlow showed up to point out that Jarvis had kinda missed the place on the same page where Schwanberg had written, in bigger writing because this was the actual title, "<i>composée par Sr. J. S. Bach".</i> Ahem. Jarvis insisted that "<i>composée</i>" just really meant "assembled" or somesuch, and "<i>ecrite</i>" really meant composed. Yeah.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Besides, he'd already pretty much blown his credibility with some unnecessary scandal in the form of the suggestion that - seeing as Bach already had known Anna Magdalena since she was 12 - when she came to Köthen as a singer and needed somewhere to stay, well, why wouldn't she stay with JS and Maria Barbara, which speculation escalated very quickly into JS having an affair with Anna Magdalena that was partially responsible for Maria Barbara's suicide. Historical note: there's no evidence whatsoever that she committed suicide.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What were the good things about <i>Written by Mrs Bach</i>? It was a useful reminder of just how male the world of classical music was. And yes, if a composer was married to a talented musician, she might very well come up with good ideas that add to his work, and I accept that assuming that Anna Magdalena made no contribution to her husband's work as a composer (other than copyist) is being too subservient to the idea of the "great men" view of history. So though there might not be convincing evidence that she came up with the aria for the Goldberg variations or the C major prelude from book 1 of the Well-Tempered Clavier (two other claims by Jarvis), I don't think anyone would be shocked or threatened if she had. The rather more substantial cello suites are a whole other matter though, and proper evidence is needed for such a bold claim; and there isn't any proper evidence. So if people dismiss Jarvis's theory, it's not because they're old-school misogynists whose God-like hero composer's reputation is threatened by a mere slip of a girl; it's because the theory's rubbish.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When <i>Written by Mrs Bach</i> was first presented to the world late last year it got plenty of breathless media coverage (though obviously not enough to attract <i>my</i> attention!). Some sceptical analysis that corresponds with my own thoughts can be found from <a href="http://www.newyorker.com/culture/cultural-comment/case-mrs-bach" target="_blank">Alex Ross</a> and <a href="http://www.theguardian.com/music/musicblog/2014/oct/29/why-bach-wife-cannot-take-credit-for-his-cello-masterwork" target="_blank">Steven Isserlis</a>; there's a lengthy article in <a href="http://musicologynow.ams-net.org/2014/11/bogus-bach-theory-gets-media-singing.html" target="_blank">Musicology Now</a> too, where the money quote comes from Christoph Wolff: "I am sick and tired of this stupid thesis". And most recently comes Ruth Tatlow's extensive <a href="http://bachnetwork.co.uk/ub10/ub10-tatlow-wbmb.pdf" target="_blank">rebuttal</a> (PDF) in the journal <i>Understanding Bach</i>.</div>

According to a <i>Gramophone</i> <a href="http://www.gramophone.co.uk/blog/the-gramophone-blog/a-posthumous-insult-to-composer-henri-dutilleux" target="_blank">blog post</a> by James Jolly, the mayor of Paris's 4th arondissement is refusing to allow a commemorative plaque on the home of Henri Dutilleux. Is it because he didn't like <i>Tout un monde lointain</i>? No. Apparently all Dutilleux's achievements have been trumped by what he did as a 26-year-old, which was write a hack-work score for some Vichy propaganda film.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's worth noting (if you enjoy irony) that Dutilleux regarded his 1946-8 piano sonata as his opus 1, renouncing most of his earlier works.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Anyway, pianist/composer Étienne Kippelen has organised a <a href="https://www.change.org/p/a-christophe-girard-maire-du-4%C3%A8me-arrondissement-de-paris-non-%C3%A0-la-calomnie-sur-le-compositeur-henri-dutilleux-pour-l-apposition-d-une-plaque-comm%C3%A9morative-%C3%A0-l-endroit-de-son-ancienne-r%C3%A9sidence-sur-l-ile-saint-louis?just_created=true" target="_blank">petition</a> to encourage the mayor to change his (seemingly quite narrow) mind.</div>

This isn't the Nereffid's Guide Awards, but it's my personal equivalent. Instead of collating thousands of reviews from many sources to produce some kind of critical consensus about the best releases of the year, I've instead just chosen my favourites. Apparently I heard 152 new classical albums in 2014, and enough of them were sufficiently good to allow me to separate them into categories along the lines of the old awards (I've dropped Opera because there were no entries and combined Opera Recital with Solo Vocal; and the Orchestral category now includes the Symphony category).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I decided not to put in any commentary on the individual categories because I'm worn out from putting together pithy statements for the two "best of" lists I did for Music Is Good (new music is <a href="http://musicisgood.org/2014/12/top-15-new-classical-of-2014-stephen-j-nereffid/" target="_blank">here</a>; "old" music to follow), and maybe it's OK to let the music speak for itself. I can say that some categories were easier to decide than others; I didn't get much Baroque Instrumental music or Choral music, and though I'm pleased with the five Living Vocal nominees it was only an end-of-year rush that provided me with that many true contenders. I was tracking my progress in the last few months to make sure there was good representation of every category; without that awareness, I'm sure the selection would have been rather less balanced. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The most exciting category was Living Instrumental, which had to have an extra nominee. The John Allemeier, John Luther Adams, Julia Wolfe, and Philip Glass were four of my top 5 of the year, marking a triumph for new music, but the winner of <b>Album of the Year</b> is Anna Prohaska's magnificent reflection on war.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The 56 nominees came from 39 labels, and no label won two awards... well, really DHM and Sony go together, as do Decca and DG.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Also... ah, that's it. Nothing more needs to be said. Well done, classical albums of 2014: you were very good.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I can't actually remember when the tradition started, but in (for the sake of argument) 2001 I put together a CD of odd, kitsch, and terrible cover versions for entertainment at that year's Thanksgiving party, and then I did a couple more discs one other year, and then I didn't get round to another until 2008. I've done one every year since, so I suppose we could say the <i>tradition</i> per se must have begun some time after that, whatever year it was where doing a Thanksgiving mix had become essential. It was unstoppable! (see picture) </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The basic idea of the first mix (conceived as a supposed soundtrack for my Nereffid the Taxidermist stories of long ago... <i>Hero with a Thousand Excuses</i>, it was called) was to have the listener say "<i>what??!</i>" in amusement and/or horror. So some of it was rubbish and not worth listening to again. Or once, really, though that was kind of the point of listening to it. Same with the second and third ones. There were also some likeable things, of course, such as a country version of "Purple Rain", or Richard Cheese's genius take on "Creep", or the cute lounge version of "Teenage Kicks". But then something odd happened in the fourth one, which was informally known to me as <i>Nereffid IV By Crikey</i>. After such dubious delights as the Swingle Singers' version of the <i>Starsky and Hutch</i> theme, Tony Christie's rendition of "Life on Mars", and a trumpet version of "Ebony and Ivory" that I don't actually remember at all, there came something I'd discovered not by simply poking around on eMusic like with everything else but by reading about it in (possibly) the <i>Observer</i>, Alpha Bondy's reggae cover of "Wish You Were Here". Which is <i>really good</i>. Well, it went into the mix because it met the criteria of <i>not like the original</i>, and that was as far as my thought process went for the moment. Still the focus was on kitsch/bizarre, so while we had the joy of John Otway's "House of the Rising Sun" ("<i>Tell us about your mother!</i>"), the less said about the Fish Brothers' cover of "Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" (with new lyrics, it was "Gerald Durrell's Spectacled Wanking Bear") the better...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The next couple of albums (<i>Nereffid's Fifth</i> and <i>Nereffid 6 FFS</i>) represent a transition as I gradually came round to the idea that saying "<i>what??!</i>" in horror is less entertaining than saying it in amusement. There aren't many genuinely dreadful things on those albums, and plenty of highlights, such as Victoria Vox's "Psycho Killer", Alice's old-timey "Black Hole Sun", Petra Haden's "Don't Stop Believin'", and David Lang's recomposition of "Born to be Wild", delivered with camp aplomb by Andrew Russo. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I finally understood what was going on with <i>Nereffid 7 As If.</i> There were some nods to the old days—an uninteresting flamenco "Poker Face", a not-good-enough metal "Ghostbusters"—but as the running order fell into place I realised I had a really strong final sequence. This was the first time I'd considered the possibility that I could even have a proper final sequence, let alone one that was strong. "<i>What??!</i>" was giving way to "<i>gosh!</i>". So track 13 is Bjorn Berge's acoustic "Give It Away" (storming), followed by Cake's take on "Mahna Mahna" (amusing), and then suddenly we're off, as The Bad Shepherds turn "God Save the Queen" into a folk song and Cardova realises that "Enola Gay" is, astonishingly, a soul classic. Brief pause for breath with a more straightforward cover of "It's The End Of The World As We Know It" by Greg Allen (but wait! now we're doing <i>straightforward</i> covers?), and then holy Jesus: Gennaro Cosmo Parlato's version of "Don't You Forget About Me" is basically "Goldfinger" as a Spaghetti Western, and holy Jesus again: Mariachi El-Rocko finds a new kind of beauty in "Every Day Is Like Sunday", and before you've fully recovered we end with William Shatner snarling through "Common People". The evolution was complete: from bad music to good music.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, for volume 8 we got serious. No more cringing, no more mere chuckling, this whole album would be one I wanted to listen to repeatedly. And actually it turned out even more than that, because it became a family favourite for car journeys. Who couldn't love The Town Pants' "Rasputin", an expert blend of disco and The Chieftains? Or The Four Of Us's slightly sinister "Sound of the Underground"? Or Lucky Uke's utterly charming "Sweet Child O' Mine"? Or—the middle track and emotional heart of the album—The Coal Porters' gorgeous folk "Heroes"? Yes, I said "emotional heart" and of course I'm exaggerating but the musical success of volume 8—now with a proper cover picture and called, inevitably, <i>Nereffid Ate My Hamster</i>—was going to my head. What would volume 9 be like?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It would be even better, is what. Have you never read a pompous recounting of a trivial subject before? The compilation of <i>Nein, Nereffid, Nein!</i> (it's not rocket science) was a new experience, because this would be the first time I used Spotify: no more 30-second eMusic samples and scurrying off to Youtube to see if the full version was there. This certainly made a more thorough search possible, although by now I was starting to realise that the available pool of music was not as large as I'd hoped. Anything on the mix had to be not only a song the small but dedicated audience might be familiar with (and some are better than others in that field), but also a musically different version of the original <i>and</i> a <i>good</i> version. There then followed a period of panic in which I was convinced I wouldn't be able to fill a CD.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<iframe allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0" height="380" src="https://embed.spotify.com/?uri=spotify:user:1172717978:playlist:2evFjdCwIdbMY91Ibxob19" width="300"></iframe></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But I did, and that one proved a family hit too. Running order became a big issue here when I found Triggerfinger's gorgeous "I Follow Rivers", which the kids already loved in Lykke Li's original: it would be a crowd-pleaser but not an up-tempo one and I was left with the feeling that it might be "too good" for this album. At which point I came across Diane Birch's extraordinary version of "Atmosphere", <i>surely</i> "too good". Well, I'd put The Coal Porters dead-centre of the last album, and although it's most <i>enjoyable,</i> it also stands out for what you might call its <i>seriousness of purpose.</i> It is "proper good music", so to speak. Same with these two new ones, but (I asked) are they "too much" for what is after all supposed to be a party album? So I gambled, and put them at the end, deciding to consider them as the cathartic reward for when the "fun" songs came to an end, and leading in to them with some more songs that aren't exactly singalongs. We had come some distance from "and now here's a funny cover version". And now we must have a portentous pause in the narrative before we talk about the 2014 mix and the philosophical conundrums faced by producers of compilation albums.</div>

Hmmm... Geoffrey Douglas Madge plays Busoni's piano music on 6 CDs. I wonder is it any good? Time for the latest "Did you even listen to the same CD?", which comes to you from 1988!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here's Adrian Corleonis in the May/June '88 <i>Fanfare:</i></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="TIMES">Madge's credentials for this project derive from his performance and recording of Sorabji's stupendous four-hour-long <i>Opus Clavicembalisticum</i> ... The surprise, however, is not that Madge plays Busoni as he does
Sorabji, but that this more familiar fare cruelly exposes a remarkable
clumsiness. His weaknesses begin with the difficulty of maintaining a
steady pulse, hesitations posing as rubato, and huge ritards stifling
many of the codas ... </span><span class="TIMES"><span class="TIMES">The near-stammer and feeble tone of “Turandots
Frauengemach“ are incredible—and unacceptable—from a pianist of Madge's
pretensions. ... </span></span><span class="TIMES"> the overall impression remains labored, literal, and disappointing. </span></div>
</blockquote>
And Kyle Gann in the Nov/Dec '88 issue's Want List section:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span class="TIMES">Madge's stunningly intelligent performances made the
Sonatinas' logic perfectly clear for the first time. I hate to think
that, had it not been for this incredible pianist, I might have died not
knowing such charming works as the <i>Macchiette Medioevali. </i>Heaven on a disc. </span></blockquote>

Astonishingly, I might have a new chapter in <i>A History of Classical Music through Recordings</i> pretty soon, so I thought I'd have a look on 8tracks and see who's been listening to the various mixes I've posted there. <a href="http://8tracks.com/nereffid">http://8tracks.com/nereffid</a> if you don't know already. Obviously the first ones have been there longer so have had more exposure, but it's interesting to see the stats:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Part 1. Gregorian chant - 2,971 listens - 211 likes<br />
Part 2. From chant to polyphony - 1,227 listens - 126 likes<br />
Part 3. Troubadours and trouvères - 464 listens - 56 likes<br />
Part 4. Troubadour influences - 243 listens - 27 likes<br />
Part 5. The 13th-century motet - 432 listens - 38 likes<br />
Part 6. Ars nova - 1,478 listens - 74 likes<br />
Part 7. Trecento Italy - 1,745 listens - 108 likes<br />
Part 8. Medieval England - 447 listens - 44 likes</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Part 9. The Burgundian school - 205 listens - 10 likes</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's not surprising that Gregorian chant should prove the most popular - chillout music, study music, etc - though the fact that the following chapter is so much less popular suggests that many listeners don't bother exploring further after they've found this one mix they like. Similarly with the troubadours and their influences. But why do the Ars nova and Trecento Italy get so many plays? Perhaps it's the fact that "France" and "Italy" are tags?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The next chapter is titled "Into the Renaissance", so there may well be a whole new audience!</div>

Good evening and welcome to a special Heavyweight Death Match edition of <i>Did You Even Listen To The Same CD?</i>! Our lucky/unlucky album this time round is John Butt and the Dunedin Consort's new recording of Mozart's <i>Requiem</i>, released by Linn earlier this year. And folks do we have a battle royale tonight! In the blue corner we have <i>Fanfare</i>'s Jerry Dubins, and in the red corner it's <i>Fanfare</i>'s Lynn René Bayley. Oh yes indeed. They've been here before: you know what they can do. No holds barred. Hide under your seats for this one.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Dubins: "<span class="TIMES">Happily, I can report that this new Mozart Requiem
is both terrifying and terrific. The performance is distinguished by
exceptionally well-defined, crisp, and transparent articulation in both
the orchestral playing and the choral singing, with the result being
clarity of textures and diction seldom heard even in other slimmed-down
period instrument performances. The effect is further enhanced by a
recording of atmospheric openness and luminous lucidity."</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="TIMES">Bayley: "</span><span class="TIMES"><span class="TIMES">I will give conductor Butt this much credit: In the
dramatic passages, he does kick some energy into his orchestra, but as
soon as you reach any sustained passage the strings and winds sound like
a MIDI, likewise the chorus. In the </span><i><span class="TIMESi">Recordare</span></i><span class="TIMES">, the singers approach their task as if they were warbling madrigals."</span></span></div>

tremulous flutters. From the standpoint of expression, her singing is as
neuter sounding as that of soprano Lunn (who sounds like a young girl),
tenor Hobbs (who sounds like a pre-pubescent teen), and bass Brook (who
has a “nice” voice, but no more than that)."</span></span></span></span></div>

<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMo_4qKzzR2vm5Yb4VBoof-InObCJJJm3Ov-unHM9hoKjsw0G0SmR2WnziupET7Lik7M7cWGdMIS4Hi6k2ijXkPXvXgJs4xuUyRwzq8vlWSrVXrVQmJCJ6QzEIYq6OhSx_qGV6VVrd_UE/s1600/classic+fm.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMo_4qKzzR2vm5Yb4VBoof-InObCJJJm3Ov-unHM9hoKjsw0G0SmR2WnziupET7Lik7M7cWGdMIS4Hi6k2ijXkPXvXgJs4xuUyRwzq8vlWSrVXrVQmJCJ6QzEIYq6OhSx_qGV6VVrd_UE/s1600/classic+fm.jpg" height="244" width="500" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What on earth is this? I quickly ran through the list of all the pieces of music that have appeared on the Classic FM Hall of Fame since 1996, and tagged any that I considered "Classic FM music", the stuff that's not "classical" in the strict sense. So this is a graph of the number of such pieces in each chart, beginning with 0 in 1996 and rising all the way to 47 in 2014.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The 3 pieces that appeared in 1997 were Jenkins's "Adiemus", Zipoli's "Elevazione", and Nyman's "The Piano" soundtrack. The following year, Nyman dropped out, and Paul McCartney's "Standing Stones" stormed in at no.76 (it's only been seen once since 2002). 1999 saw the first of the movie Johns, Williams's "Star Wars" music, then 2000 gave us Ungar's "Ashokan Farewell", Einaudi's "Le Onde", and the other John (Barry)'s "The Beyondness of Things", as well as Williams's "Schindler's List". I could go on like this all day, but anyway, the point is: from about 1% in the early days, "non-classical" now constitutes about 15% of the Hall of Fame.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What's important to note is that a lot of the "non-classical" music is actually <i>new</i> music, which gets into the HoF not long after being written or recorded. (I find it interesting that the once-ubiquitous Myers "Cavatina" has only been in the HoF once, at no.299 in 2003!).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I should also point out that "non-classical" seems to account for much
less than 15% (I'd say, at a rough guess, below 10%) of the station's
output. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now go draw your own conclusions.</div>

OTOM, as Cicero might have texted. Yes, it's just gone Easter, and time for another Classic FM Hall of Fame for the serious classical music lover to bemoan!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
(Previous Les Introuvables cover available here: <a href="http://nereffid.blogspot.ie/2010/04/straight-in-at-number-98.html" target="_blank">2010</a>, <a href="http://nereffid.blogspot.ie/2011/04/that-silver-moon-has-never-been-so.html" target="_blank">2011</a>, <a href="http://nereffid.blogspot.ie/2012/04/halls-of-fame.html" target="_blank">2012</a>. Hmm, the absence of a 2013 comment shows the parlous state of this blog, doesn't it?)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
So the news is that VW's Lark is back on top of the chart, thanks in large part (if one is to believe the <a href="http://www.classicfm.com/composers/vaughan-williams/news/lark-ascending-hall-of-fame-2014/" target="_blank">bumf</a>, and why wouldn't one?) to its use in the much-watched death scene of Hayley Cropper on <i>Coronation Street</i> (I didn't know this; I read it).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Yeah, that's not the news is it? Because the most important news is that Tchaikovsky's <i>Capriccio Italien</i> is at no.140. No, wait, that's not it either. Oh yes: video games. Lots of game music - music from 8 games to be exact, according to <a href="http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/gaming/news/a566025/final-fantasy-voted-into-classic-fm-hall-of-fame-2014.html#~oCgR6ZAeEcWoCJ" target="_blank">Digital Spy</a>. The trend began two years ago with a couple of suspiciously high new entries, but Classic FM seems to have embraced the concept now, informing us:</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This year's chart also revealed a huge rise in popularity in orchestral
music used in video games, with eight entries in the top 300 including
two in the top 20. Since Classic FM started playing video game
soundtracks regularly last year, the station has attracted a significant
number of new, younger listeners. In the last year alone, the number
of 15 to 24 year olds listening to Classic FM each week has grown by 27
per cent. </div>
</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ah, it was all part of a cunning plan, or something. Well sure lookit, if it gets the young folk off their mopeds and their heroin and starts them listening to Beethoven instead then it must be a good thing. Though the scientist in me wants to know, "27 per cent of <i>what</i>?" of course.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The games thing is part of a broader trend in the Hall of Fame, though, Back in 2010 I speculated on whether one could draw any grand conclusions from the many years of data. I wasn't so sure at the time, but looking at it now - there have been 19 charts - I notice one clear change over the years. Let's put on our nerd goggles!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Comparing the first Hall from 1996 with the latest version reveals that they have 196 works in common. Not all of these works were in every single chart; about 40 of them disappeared at some point and then returned. We can look at a few changes in fortune here. Borodin's <i>In the Steppes of Central Asia</i> started off at no.221 and has showed a general upward trend, peaking this year at 47. Schubert's <i>Trout</i> quintet has gradually sunk from no.27 to no.154, while his String quintet has had an even greater fall, from 56 to 215. Why, I wonder? I suppose the Borodin fits better into the overall "sound world" of today's Classic FM, and anyway chamber music has never been a significant feature of the Hall of Fame.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>But Nereffid,</i> I hear you grunt,<i> what is this "sound world" of which you speak?</i> Well. Let's look at the pieces that were in the Hall of Fame in 1996 and aren't in the 2014 one, and vice versa. </div>

Yes, we've lost Vivaldi's Mandolin concerto and gained his 2-Mandolin concerto. We've lost Siegfried and gained Gotterdammerung. We've lost one Strauss's Rosenkavalier and gained another Strauss's Fledermaus. And, yay, Bach cello suites! </div>

But observe the presence not just of the games composers but also of John Barry, Howard Shore, John Williams, and Hans Zimmer; Ludovico Einaudi and Karl Jenkins; Patrick Hawes, Nigel Hess, Helen Jane Long; Philip Stopford and Eric Whitacre. </div>

We can call this a trend, can't we? A gradual evolution from a list full of what you might call regular classical music, towards something rather more like... well, I tend to call it "Classic FM sort of music". And so Classic FM's listeners are, increasingly, not "people who like classical music" but "people who like the music on Classic FM". Perhaps in another 10 years the change will be so great that it won't make sense for a classical music blogger to write about the Classic FM Hall of Fame!</div>
