PODIUM<br />
The 1995-96 Toronto concert<br />
season, with eight and a half<br />
months behind it and one ahead,<br />
· is drawing to its close. With<br />
three to five concerts on a<br />
typical weeknight and as many as<br />
ten on a weekend evening, it has<br />
been like · a continuous music<br />
festival here since mid '<br />
September.<br />
Already some of the major<br />
concert s{!ries are finished -<br />
Music Toronto, the Ford Centre ·<br />
and the Faculty of Music at U of<br />
T - although others, notably the<br />
Toronto Symphqny Orchestra<br />
will continue until near the end<br />
of the month.<br />
Choral music also continues<br />
well into <strong>June</strong> with well over a<br />
dozen concerts by some of our<br />
best choirs, including the ,<br />
JAZZ<br />
IN OR<br />
OUT!<br />
Dear Pulse:<br />
Do you or don't you list<br />
jazz?<br />
I have noticed jazz<br />
concerts at the Glenn<br />
Gould Studio and Waiter<br />
Hall in Pulse, but the<br />
CJR T jazz concerts at the<br />
Science Centre have been<br />
conspicuous by their<br />
absence.<br />
For me jazz and<br />
classical are a continuum.<br />
I would like to be able to<br />
rely on your publication<br />
to keep informed of<br />
both.<br />
But I know I can't<br />
now because, unlike your<br />
classical music listings,<br />
your coverage of jazz is<br />
spotty (to put it mildly).<br />
It seems as if you haven't<br />

I<br />
I<br />
really decided whether or<br />
not jazz belongs in your<br />
magazine.<br />
Maybe you don't have<br />
room to put what's<br />
happening in the clubs,<br />
but I, for one, would very<br />
much appreciate it if you<br />
could make the same<br />
e-ffort to put together<br />
comprehensive jazz-inconcert<br />
listings as you<br />
make with your classical<br />
listings.<br />

~re beginning to think more<br />
about being out of doors,<br />
preferably out of the city.<br />

the Guelph Spring Festival<br />
offering some wonderful music<br />
this month. Others will pick up<br />
the thread in July and August.<br />
More about that in July.<br />
Meanwhile, even though <strong>June</strong> has<br />
only about half the number of<br />
concerts that May had, there are<br />
many very interesting ones (see<br />
ConcertNotes, page 3). We<br />
hope you will get to one or two<br />
before the season is over.<br />

So far, our policy has<br />
been to list jazz-inconcert<br />
when it jumps<br />
up and bites us.<br />
lt's been hard enough<br />
getting our classical &<br />
new act together. Does<br />
jazz need the same<br />
informational tainsfusion?<br />
We don't have a<br />
definitive answer--but<br />
next season is a new<br />
season for Pulse too, so<br />
we 're open to persuasion,<br />

SEEKING PERFECT SoUND 1: Church of St. Mary Magdalene<br />
BY FRANK LOCKWOOD<br />
This is the first in a series<br />
. profiling music performance<br />
venues in Toronto.<br />
In my professional<br />
activities as a recording<br />
engineer/producer for<br />
classical music, ( have the<br />
opportunity to assess the<br />
acoustics of many churches<br />
and concert halls as well as<br />
attending performances.<br />
As a new T orontonian, I<br />
am being introduced to<br />
several locations for the first<br />
time, and hope to share<br />
some of what I discover with<br />
you.<br />
The Church of S.aint<br />
Mary Magdalene has<br />
one of the most distinguished<br />
musical legacies in Canada.<br />
The church was founded in<br />
1888 by the Rev. Charles<br />
Darling, and designed by his<br />
brother Frank, a prominent<br />
Toronto architect.<br />
The interior exhibits many Choir, a small chorus of<br />
of the architectural features men at the front of the<br />
common to the Romanesque church, with the rest of the<br />
revival, notably the rounded Mass and a Motet or Anthem<br />
arches, the barrel vaulting of sung by the Gallery Choir, a<br />
the north aisle and the lightly mixed chorus located in the<br />
tinted or clear glass in the loft at the back. This<br />
windows. The combination of antiphonal disposition of<br />
the plaster walls and the · voices makes a significant<br />
wooden floor makes for lively contribution to the Solemn<br />
reverberation and the<br />
High Mass services, held each<br />
complex shape of the interior Sunday at 11:00 a.m.<br />

resulting in a smooth, maintained and developed by<br />
uncoloured sound quality. Dr. Robert Hunter Bell, who<br />
A choir director I know has forged an ongoing<br />

'just makes you want to Classics (EMI) providing a<br />

Under Willan, the music underway for a second<br />
of the Mass was divided into recording to be released later<br />
parts sung by the Ritual this year.<br />
PULSE<br />
Other musical activities<br />
throughout the year include<br />
concerts of chamber, choral<br />
. and organ music.<br />
The church is located at<br />
477 Manning Avenue north<br />
and west of College and<br />
Bathurst, at the corner of<br />
Manning and Ulster, (just a<br />
few blocks from either<br />
Christie er Bathurst Subway).<br />
This is a residential area,<br />
so parking is at a premium.<br />
The building has full access<br />
for the handicapped. The<br />
Church of Saint Mary<br />
Magdalene is a fine example<br />
of how a building, a musical<br />
tradition and the dedicated<br />
support of a community can<br />
come together to enrich the<br />
cultura'llife of the whole city.<br />

<strong>June</strong> '96 •S• PULS~<br />
Harmonious partnership: Lydia Adams and the Amadeus Choir<br />
BY ALLAN PULKER<br />
At a recent rehearsal I<br />
attended, the Amadeus Choir<br />
was preparing for their<br />
upcoming <strong>June</strong> 1 concert at<br />
the Ford Centre.<br />
They were rehearsi.ng some<br />
stirring music from the<br />
English choral tradition:<br />
Charles Stanford Tomkins,<br />
Vaughan Williams,. Hubert<br />
Parry and choral luminary Sir<br />
David Willcocks, who will<br />
share the podi urn with Ms.<br />
Adams <strong>June</strong> 1.<br />
Influences<br />
Willcocks has played an<br />
important role in Lydia<br />
Adams' musical life.<br />
She was born and grew up<br />
in Glace Bay Nova Scotia,<br />
where her mother directed<br />
one of the lo1=al church<br />
choirs. She studied piano and<br />
voice and sang in her .<br />
mother's choir (her mother<br />
now sings in the Amadeus!)<br />
She attended Mount<br />
Allison University as a piano<br />
major. but immersed herself<br />
in choirs as well. (She credits<br />
''Mount A" choral conductor,<br />
George Evelyn, for his<br />
influence at this time.)<br />
She then did post-graduate<br />
work at London's Royal<br />
College ofMusi.c with<br />
Willcocks and sang in his<br />
300-voice Bach Choir.<br />
''W i llcocks" she says "was<br />
not afraid to give<br />
opportunities to others."<br />

One such opportunity for<br />

conducting a work by great<br />
20th century composer<br />
Herbert Howells, in the<br />
·presence of the composer.<br />
"London was fantastic" she<br />
told me. A choice of great<br />
performers every night. And<br />

.lseler<br />
One summer, between terms<br />
at London's RCM, she<br />
worked as an accompanist at<br />
the Nova Scotia Choral<br />
Federation adult choir camp.<br />
Elmer Iseler invited her to<br />
Toronto to become the Elmer<br />
Iseler Singers accompanist ..<br />
She kept him waiting a<br />
year while she completed her<br />
studies, but in 1981 took the<br />
position which she was to<br />
hold for 13 years.<br />
It was while with the Iseler<br />
Singers, in 1985, that she<br />
became conductor of the<br />
Amadeus Choir.<br />
Perfect match<br />
Adams and the Amadeus<br />
Choir are such a perfect<br />
match that one forgets the<br />
choir predates her.<br />
It was founded in 1974 by<br />
members of the choir of St.<br />

Scarborough. There were two<br />

of them, Barbara Hodgins,<br />
still sings in the choir.<br />
'The Amadeus is still<br />
above all else, an amateur<br />
community choir" says.<br />
Adams. (Members range in<br />
age from 14 to 81.) "Choral<br />
singing really promotes a<br />
sense of community."<br />
One innovation she<br />
brought to the choir<br />
illustrates this beautifully ··<br />
the choir's annual<br />
competition for new<br />
compositions · Christmas<br />
Carols and now Chanukah<br />
songs as well.<br />
I complimented her on<br />
this. "Oh, that was David<br />
Willcock's idea" she said<br />
"He's done it for years with<br />
the Bach Choir and the<br />
Phi lip Jones Brass Ensemble<br />
at the Royal Albert ·· an<br />
audience of 8000 people!"<br />
It works, she told me,<br />
because the carol is such an ·<br />
accessible form, "People are<br />
not afraid to try." Hundreds<br />
of pieces have been entered in<br />
th~ competition over the<br />
years, many from children.<br />
The Amadeus Choir keeps<br />
busy under her leadership.<br />
The choir has just won<br />
second prize in the CBC<br />
amateur choir competition.<br />
And they have an ambitious<br />
96-97 agenda: a four-concert<br />
series at the Ford Centre; and<br />
performances with the<br />
Hannaford Stre_~t _Silver Band,<br />
Scarborough Phi )harmonic<br />
and the TSO.<br />
Giving credit<br />
In addition to the rehearsal I<br />
attended, I chatted with her<br />
(at the Bayview Second Cup<br />
(one of Pulse's distribution<br />
points!) for over an hour.<br />
I was struck by how readily<br />
she credits others ·· David<br />
Willcocks' carol competition<br />

United Church in North<br />
York. She's like Bach · she<br />
writes a new composition for<br />
the choir every week. She<br />
really understands how to<br />
write for choir!"<br />
And that's Lydia Adams,<br />
always spreading the good<br />
news about other people who<br />
are contributing. It's part of<br />
her own contribution.<br />

What We're Not<br />
X There are a lot of things we're not. Firstly, we're not big.<br />
We never intended to be a supermarket - never will be.<br />
X We don't have everything in our store - There's a lot that<br />
we don't sell - either by our own choice or by our lack of space.<br />
X In our selection of meat you won't find regular chickens - or<br />
blade steaks, or ••• there's a lot of types of meat we don't sell.<br />
. Same with fresh produce - You'll find that we have<br />
a selected assortment.<br />
X You won't find that we're the cheapest. We're sure that if you look<br />
around enough you'll find that some of our items are cheaper<br />
elsewhere.<br />
X We're not what you'd call modern -<br />
and no neon. No glitz, please!<br />
very little chrome<br />
We're not a lot of these things .<br />
./ But WHAT WE ARE IS OLD-FASHIONED fRIENDLY,<br />
DOWN-TO- EARTH, KNOWLEDGEABLE, AND DRIVEN BY A<br />
TOTAL COMMITMENT TO THE QUALITY OF OUR MEAT.<br />
WE'RE A SMALL COSY STORE, WE'RE FAIRLY PRICED, AND<br />
WE MAKE A LOT OF WHAT WE SELL - AND WE CARE ABOUT<br />
WHAT WE SELL<br />
I<br />
IF YOU CARE ABOUT WHAT YOU BUY AND HOW GOOD IT IS - ,<br />
YOU'LL WANT TO PAY US A VISIT - THAT'S OUR BUSINESS!<br />
