Sunday RecitalsSince summer 2000 there have been regular music recitals at Wylde Green URC, featuring church members and friends, local amateur and professional musicians, and even internationally-known performers. These short concerts are now a monthly fixture, supported not only by church members who have been at the preceding evening service, but also attracting audiences from the local community who attend just to hear the music. Starting at 8pm, they last 45-60 minutes, are informal in nature and often use the church’s Yamaha grand piano. All are welcome, no ticket is required and admission is free, but a retiring collection is taken in aid of church funds. Simply turn up at 19.45 for an 20.00 start. Click here for a list of our previous recitals Sunday 28th March 2010 at 6.30 pm – anthems & readings The Palm Sunday evening service at Wylde Green URC will include Easter music and readings featuring the church choirs Sunday 18th April 2010 – Helen Reid (piano) Helen first came to public attention when she appeared on BBC television in the National Keyboard Finals of the BBC Young Musician competition in 1998.

Sunday 13th June 2010 – Miyuki Kato (piano) Miyuki was born in Japan and came to the UK in 1997. She studied at the Royal Northern College of Music, the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama and the Royal College of Music, who awarded her a Master of Music Degree in Advanced Performance in 2008. She has given a number of concerts in England, Wales and Japan, and she has won many prizes at competitions. Sunday 4th July 2010 – Jennifer Bennett (solo violin) Jennifer is a founding member of the Amphion Consort, specialising in music of the Baroque and Classical eras using period instruments and delivering fresh interpretations that are historically informed, passionate and engaging. In this recital she will be exploring the repertoire for unaccompanied solo violin including a sonata by the Italian virtuoso Francesco Geminiani and the great D minor partita by J S Bach, with its concluding famous chaconne. For more information, see: www.amphionconsort.com Sunday 12th September 2010 – Sutton Coldfield Trombone Choir Sunday 3rd October 2010 – Thomas Gould (violin) A graduate of the Royal Academy of London, Thomas was selected for representation by Young Concert Artists Trust (YCAT) in 2006, leading to recitals in the Purcell Room, Bridgewater Hall and Wigmore Hall. He has since performed throughout the UK and abroad as a concerto soloist to critical acclaim. Sunday 3rd April 2011 – José Menor (piano) José Menor is a young Spanish professional pianist with a growing international reputation. Born in 1977, he studied at the Conservatorio Superior Municipal de Musica de Barcelona and the Royal College of Music, London, graduating with a masters degree in advanced performance. He has given concerts in the USA, Spain, Germany, Italy and the UK, and has been a prize-winner at several competitions. Many of his performances have been recorded by Spanish TV and radio. He gave the opening concert on the church’s Yamaha piano, and has performed twice for us since.
Sunday Recital Background InformationIn 2003/4 Martyn Parfect and I have attended the public final auditions of the Young Concert Artists Trust (YCAT) competition at the Wigmore Hall, London. Young musicians from around the world, who have been selected through a rigorous audition process, are judged by a panel chaired by broadcaster Sue MacGregor, and including the director of the Edinburgh Festival, the BBC Radio 3 music controller and The Times music critic. YCAT seeks to identify, nurture and promote outstanding young soloists at the beginning of their professional careers, bringing them to the attention of the concert-going public and offering commercial management to take their careers forward into the international arena. Needless to say, the standards are exceptionally high, and as well as enjoying many superb performances it has given the opportunity for me and Martyn to meet and engage some of these remarkable musicians to give concerts in Sutton Coldfield. Beginning in October 2005 there were three concerts being given by some of these up-and-coming professionals at Wylde Green URC – a fantastic opportunity for all of us to hear world-class musicians in the church’s fine acoustic, in many cases using our Yamaha grand piano. The first of the YCAT performers to play for us was Léonard Schreiber, who gave a violin recital on Sunday 2nd October, accompanied by John Gough on the piano. Léonard was born in Antwerp, Belgium and studied in London at the Purcell School and the Royal College of Music. Although only 21 years old, he has already given recitals throughout Europe, and has been soloist with many prestigious orchestras. On 6th November we welcomed O Duo, a percussion duo. Owen Gunnell and Oliver Cox were scholars at the Royal College of Music, graduating in 2003, both with First Class Honours. Their repertoire, which spans more than 300 years, is a mix of popular classics and accessible contemporary music, played on two marimbas, vibraphone and a huge array of other tuned percussion instruments. They have a flamboyant style, not dissimilar to the West-End show Stomp, which will definitely appeal to younger members, as well as a technical brilliance which will take the breath away of even the most seasoned classical musician. They are simply not to be missed! The third of our YCAT artists was José Menor, an exceptionally talented young Spanish pianist who needs little introduction, having given the opening recital on our grand piano last year. His career as a soloist has taken off since then, as José has given concerts all over Europe to considerable critical acclaim. Finally, we had a group of local students playing for us on 20th November. The Four Quarters String Quartet (violins - Amy Littlewood & Michael Jones; viola - Tom Lingard: 'cello - Byeong-ju Park) performed a recital of classical and popular music. Philip Bellshaw
Other Musical EventsSutton Coldfield Philharmonic Society @ Wylde Green URCSaturday 8th May 2010 at 7.30pm – Di Xiao (piano)Chinese pianist Di Xiao was born in 1980, and studied at the Central Conservatory of Music, Beijing, emerging as the Conservatory’s top student in both academic and piano studies. After graduating with a Master’s Degree in Piano Performance, achieving one of the highest marks in the history of the Conservatory, she was awarded a full scholarship to study for the Advanced Postgraduate Diploma at UCE Birmingham Conservatoire, from where she graduated with distinction in 2006. Di Xiao is now enjoying a flourishing career as a concert pianist; she also aspires to be an international ambassador for the piano, combining both Chinese and Western repertoire in her concert programmes, thereby creating a bridge between the two cultures. Her recital will feature Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata and Chopin’s Ballade no. 4, as well as a Chinese encore. Di Xiao featured as a ‘Rising Star’ in the October 2008 edition of BBC Music Magazine, and her first commercial CD recording, Di Xiao presents…, has been released, to considerable critical acclaim. Tickets for this concert are priced at £10 and will be available on the door or can be ordered from Dr R Mathieson using the attached booking form which also contains details of the programme.

More information is available from Lynne Hardaker or Philip Bellshaw.
Reviews5 March 2005 A pipe dream realisedHistorically, the Christian Church has always been an important advocate and patron of the arts, and here in Sutton, Wylde Green URC has had a long and honourable history of music events for several decades now. It is enjoying a new expansion of its activities, with its recent acquisition of a Yamaha Concert Grand, and the concert on Saturday celebrated the completion of a two year programme to refurbish the organ, with an organ recital and anthems for choir and organ. To mark the centenary of the original organ the pipes were taken to the Willis factory in Liverpool and more than 200,000 individual parts were refurbished and re-installed. For the concert the 3 manual organ console was placed in the centre, and CCTV projected onto a large screen, this gave everyone the best possible view of soloist Paul Carr Paul Carr is Organist and Director of Music at St Paul's in the Jewellery Quarter, and a remarkably active musician and recitalist. The programme was calculated to the best effect to show off the many colours of the restored organ. Bach’s Toccata and Fugue in D minor was followed by the Badinerie from his Suite no. 2, and then some pieces from the French tradition in which Vierne’s Naïades from the Pièces de Fantaisie was especially impressive in its unassuming yet constant virtuosity. The choirs’ contributions were no less impressive. The main choir started with Finzi’s God is gone up. From its opening fanfare to the final chords, this was a magnificent piece suitable for such a grand occasion. Other works by Elgar and Wesley were distinguished by their lovely soft singing and purposeful phrasing. Bairstow’s demanding set of choral variations Blessed city, heavenly Salem received an excellent performance. The junior choir, some of whose members looked too young to be out after dark, gave a committed performance including Malcolm Archer’s adaptation of Pachelbel’s Canon. It was good to see that the continuity of the choral tradition is being looked after so well. Paul Carr’s recital continued with several of his own arrangements, including one of the Overture to Die Fledermaus. This was a splendidly technicolour transcription, and it was startling to hear such well known tunes emerge in flamboyant new clothes. Taken at a whirlwind tempo it brought the house down. The whole evening was a heart-warming family occasion, marked at the end by two encores, a round of applause for the organ builder, (present in the audience) thanks to the organisers of the organ appeal, the donators of funds, including Sutton Municipal Charities and, of course, Widor’s Toccata as a grand finale. The banner on the church wall reads “Thank God for music”. This church is doing that extremely well. John Gough Stephen Clarke has made a recording of the organ recital given by Paul Carr on 5th March 2005 to celebrate the recent refurbishment of the church organ by Henry Willis and Sons Ltd. This has been produced to professional standards, thanks to a generous donation towards from Doreen Jones in memory of Alan. Reasonably priced at £7.50 for a two CD set, this also features the church choirs and is NOW AVAILABLE from Stephen Clarke (0121 353 0268) or any member of the senior choir. Limited numbers of the professionally-printed souvenir programme are also available at half price (£1:00). Filled with information about the music, performers and a history of the organ at Wylde Green, this would make an ideal accompaniment to the recording for anyone who was unable to be present at the concert. Speak to Stephen Clarke (0121 353 0268) or Philip Bellshaw (0121 354 8272) for a copy. Comments from the evening“The whole evening was brilliant - the organ was rich and powerful. The pieces were well chosen to show the organ off to its best.” Yvonne Brookes “It was really good. I liked the Nutcracker because it was like my video. We sang a special song and I really liked it.” Sebastian Peniket “Absolutely fantastic! Paul did us and the organ proud. I learned a lot about the organ. Being able to sing in the choir was a wonderful experience.” Bev Lyne “It was lovely to hear the organ let rip. It was good to be a part of it. The Junior Choir was ace!” Marion Moore “It was scary with millions of people watching. Paul was very clever ‘cos he moved his fingers very fast.” Grace Green “The depth and quality of the organ were brilliant and the choirs were on top form.” Pete Horton “It was a brill evening.” Faith Jackson, Lizzie Steel and Sophia James “Marvellous. The choirs were excellent. Talent at its best. So much of the music was just black notes - super!” Nettie Arthur “I liked it when he (Paul) played the organ just with his feet!” Lisa Jones
11 February 2005 Review: Sutton Coldfield Orchestra Young Soloists ConcertThe acoustics at Wylde Green URC are perfect for classical music, amply demonstrated at Saturday night’s concert with Sutton Coldfield Orchestra, led by Jeremy Blunt and conducted by Paul Hilliam. The orchestra is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, and it confirmed its status as one of the Midlands’ finest by beginning and ending the concert in commanding form and ebullient fashion with rousing accounts of film music by John Williams. These exciting, modern works were an appropriate frame for the main substance of the evening, which featured movements from various concertos, performed by a number of young instrumentalists drawn from the ranks of the BSSO (Birmingham Schools’ Symphony Orchestra.) Henrietta Haines gave a spirited rendition of the first movement of Mozart’s Violin Concerto no. 3, producing a dazzlingly clear, pure tone, perfectly in keeping with the style of the music. This was followed by a very modern work, Divertimento for Flute and String Orchestra, composed by Andrey Rubtsov (born 1982) and receiving its British première. Sagar Musani was the soloist, playing with great panache and shrugging off the technical challenges posed by the work. Amy Littlewood (violin) and Tom Lingard (viola) then played the slow movement from Mozart’s Sinfonia Concertante. They produced a hauntingly beautiful and mellow texture, allowing the melody to move seamlessly between the two instruments, and blending together perfectly. The second half of the concert opened with more music by Mozart, the first movement of his Piano Concerto no. 26. The church’s recently-purchased grand piano was expertly played by Jonathan Dodd, whose dazzling yet sensitive performance deservedly received rapturous applause. Samuel Barber’s Canzonetta for Oboe and String Orchestra was beautifully played by Ashley Spencer, who produced a fine tone with excellent variety of timbre. She maintained her composure well despite some nervousness in the orchestral accompaniment. David Kayente, a 15 year old violinist with a tremendous technique, gave a thrilling performance of the final movement of Saint-Saëns’ Violin Concerto. He managed to produce sufficient power to match the sound of the full orchestra, who provided firm yet sympathetic support throughout. Each of these soloists was superb, displaying a maturity of musical interpretation and a confidence belying their tender years. They gave performances of the highest musical standard and are a credit to the BSSO and their schools.

Early History of the OrganIn her book “SUTTON COLDFIELD A Pictorial History”, Sue Bates includes a drawing of ‘A New Congregational Church’ in Highbridge Road, opened on 19th June 1898. This was an iron building which lasted until the building of the present Highbridge hall and generally referred to as the ‘Tin Tab’. The present Church was built in 1900 and the original organ by the firm of Ayles of Birmingham was installed. Much of this instrument still remains following rebuilds in 1949 by the firm of Nicholsons of Worcester with some later modifications and the present restoration by the firm of Willis. My recollections of this instrument go back to around 1930 when I was taken to Church by my father for the morning service and sat with him in the choir among the tenors, from where I had a good view of the Organist and the console (a wonderful distraction for someone of my age from unintelligible ecclesiastical jargon). So what about this instrument, with not just one keyboard like the piano at home: but 2 for the hands and one for the feet also! Fascinating! I later started to play it in my ‘teens. The layout of the instrument was arranged with the 2 manual divisions against the front wall of the building with the Swell division on the left and the Great on the right behind a flat case with 5 groups of decorated pipes typical of the time. The two outer panels of this remain as side screens. The main portion of the case was not so high as the present one. The largest Pedal pipes (16ft Open Diapason) stood against the side walls behind the screens, the tops being visible. The rest of the pedal division was placed behind the outer left screen. The console was located centrally in the case. The organist being concealed from view by a curtain. As built the organ was blown by hand from a position on the right hand side behind the present side screen. This facility remained , but before 1930 an electric blower had been installed. The action was completely pneumatic including 4 thumb pistons for each manual, adjustable by tuner. The swell shutters were operated by an iron pedal on the right with latch for “full swell” and heavy to work as with most instruments of the day, justifying the traditional annual allowable organists expense of 2 pairs of shoes and a pair of trousers! Whether they were paid, I do not know. A specification of the organ is appended. In the 1949 rebuild Nos. 4, 5, & 7 were moved from the Great to form the basis of the Choir division and the swell reeds were most likely re-voiced and renamed. Otherwise the present Swell is still mostly original. The stop jambs were angled as at present. The Swell stops were placed on the left and the Great & Pedal stops on the right. The Pedal Board was flat and parallel The original Swell & Great chests remain with their actions modified to electro-pneumatic in 1949. Ron Close Recent DevelopmentsA major rebuilding of this Nicholson organ has just been completed by Henry Willis and it can be heard on Saturday 5th March when BOA Council Member Paul Carr gives the opening recital. In 1949 Nicholson & Co undertook a complete re-design of a previous organ by an unnamed Birmingham builder installed in 1903, which included adding an enclosed Choir division. The new action was electro-pneumatic, a detached console with double-touch stop tabs in a horseshoe layout was provided, and a new organ screen constructed. In 2003 Henry Willis & Sons commenced a complete overhaul of the organ. A new drawstop console was provided, moveable on castors and fitted with updated computer action with multiple memory levels, sequencer and transposer. Unlike the 1,500 wires connecting the 1949 console, the connection to the organ is now a cable containing just 7 wires. An Acoustic 32’ Reed has been added to the Pedal (derived from the Trombone 16ft and several other ranks). The bellows, Swell and Great soundboards, and other parts of the action have been fully refurbished, the blower overhauled and the organ totally re-wired. The pipework has been extensively re-voiced and the poor speech of much of the pipework has been corrected. The Flute 4ft (triangular) on the Great was scrapped and replaced by similar pipework with better speech; also the bottom octave of the Pedal Echo Bourdon. The overall sound of the organ, both individual stops and chorus, has been transformed as well as providing a welcome increase in power.
