Terpsichore, Op.7

The “Whirler” or Muse of Dance, for Large Orchestra, on "Masterworks of the New Era", Vol.11 [CD]: world première recording with the Kiev Philharmonic Orchestra / Robert Ian Winstin; recorded in the Philharmonic Hall of Ukraine, Kiev (February, 2006). Editions de la Rue Margot (USA) Cat. No. ERM 6811. ISMN M-7200-7223-4. ASCAP Title Code: 502825438. Recording supported by the Kenneth Leighton Trust (UK) & Foundation for New Music (USA); ca.14 mins. 12 secs. Being one in a series of intense and ethereal or (as here) kaleidoscopically vibrant and sparkling symphonic portraits of the nine muses, Terpsichore (a showpiece for large orchestra) is itself divided into nine dance scenes: 1. The precocious Muse begins her wild, whirling dance; 2. Entrancing Terpsichore dazzles all those who behold her; 3. A most majestic and dramatic solo performer; 4. The beguiling Muse slows and strikes a pose; 5. Her frenzied dance resumes; 6. The Muse displays her hypnotic, swaying gracefulness; 7. She pauses one last time; 8. Her recollection of past glories, and homage to the ancient circular dances; 9. The capricious Terpsichore’s Finale! First performance score reproduced with the aid of a grant from the Society for the Promotion of New Music's "Francis Chagrin Fund" (UK)

Wordsworth & Basho—Walking Poets

‘Wordsworth and Basho: Walking Poets’ is a group exhibition based in the Wordsworth Trust, in Grasmere, UK. The exhibition builds on momentum developed through previous collaborations between the Wordsworth Trust, the University of Sunderland and Bath Spa University, in which a range of contemporary artists created fresh and challenging perspectives on Wordsworth’s poetry and Basho's work. Dr Manny Ling collaborated with the Japanese sumi painter Christine Flint Sato and produced a series of work that explored East Asian and western contexts. Dr Manny Ling also designed and curated the exhibition catalogue (ISBN: 978-1-906832-20-9

Gothic visions of classical architecture in Hablot Knight Browne’s “dark” illustrations for the novels of Charles Dickens

In the early gothic literature of the eighteenth century danger lurked in the darkness beneath the pointed arches of gothic buildings. During the nineteenth century there was a progressive, although never complete, dislocation of gothic literary readings from gothic architecture. This article explores a phase in that development through discussion of a series of ‘dark’ illustrations produced by Hablot Knight Browne to illustrate novels by Charles Dickens. These show the way in which the rounded arches of neo-classical architecture were depicted in the mid-nineteenth century as locales of oppression and obscurity. Such depictions acted, in an age of political and moral reform, to critique the values of the system of power and authority that such architecture represented
