SPRING/SUMMER 2016

” 

I truly believe that music 

and the other arts which have 

their source in the realm of 

the senses can exercise a great 

influence on the way a human 

grows and can also affect the 

values and ethical assumptions 

of society, which is too often 

influenced by judgements born 

of frustration, prejudice and 

the baser motives of revenge 

and punishment. 

Yehudi Menuhin 

Welcome to The Menuhin Hall as we commemorate 

the centenary of our Founder with an exciting series 

of events culminating in the summer with what we 

hope will be a glorious Menuhin 100 Festival at the 

start of July. 

The Menuhin 100 Festival starts with a concert by past pupil 

Nicola Benedetti, followed by a fundraising dinner, and finishes with 

the great actor Samuel West performing in ‘Shakespeare and Music’ 

alongside our pupils. In between, there will be an organ recital by 

James O’Donnell in St. Mary’s Church, Stoke d’Abernon, concerts 

in the grotto at Painshill Park, ‘Menuhin on Film’ presented by 

Bruno Monsaingeon and a very special series of six Showcase 

Concerts performed by the pupils. 

We have a glittering array of artists appearing earlier in the year as 

part of our Celebrity Series. At the end of January, Jeremy Menuhin, 

along with Mookie Menuhin and Sasha Rozhdestvensky, Steven Isserlis 

and Stephen Hough in February, Joji Hattori with our own School 

orchestra in April (as part of the Menuhin International Violin 

Competition), and the Chiaroscuro String Quartet (led by past pupil, 

Alina Ibragimova) in May. To complete the list of celebrities, the 

great guitarist John Williams returns with multi-instrumentalist 

Richard Harvey in June. On 21st April (the eve of Yehudi Menuhin’s 

birthday), Humphrey Burton, his biographer, will give a lecture 

about the great man – an event which is not to be missed. 

As well as other Showcase Concerts given by the pupils (on 4 and 

26 February, 17 March, 5 May and a lunchtime concert on 25 May), 

as usual we welcome several organisations to the Hall – Surrey Mozart 

Players (23 April), the National Youth Harp Orchestra (24 April) 

and Australian National Touring Opera (18 June). 

Sadly, this is the last brochure produced by our Hall Manager, 

Ambrosine Desoutter. She has been with the School since 1999 

and Hall Manager since its opening in 2006. She has steered the 

Hall through its first ten years with great skill, dedication and passion. 

Very many of you reading this will have experienced at first hand the 

charm and sense of joy with which she did her job. We thank her so 

very much for all she has done for the Hall. Alice Benzing takes over 

the post in January. As we wish Ambrosine the best of luck for her 

future endeavours, we welcome Alice, whom we know is very much 

looking forward to joining the team and presenting top-class events 

in The Menuhin Hall in the months and years ahead.

Anniversary Appeal 

Appeal update 

Please accept my sincere thanks for your remarkable support towards 

our Anniversary Appeal. Thanks to you, the School has already secured 

a phenomenal £2.57 million towards the Music Studios alone! 

This progress has been matched by the equally rapid construction of 

this building as many concert-goers will have seen. Whether you have 

chosen to support the creation of first-rate facilities in which students 

can practise or the provision of much-needed bursaries, your generosity 

will enable the School to nurture exceptional musical talent as never 

before. However, as we enter the final phase of the Anniversary Appeal, 

we continue our efforts to raise just over £900k before construction 

is completed! 

I am delighted to announce that, thanks to the generosity of our Appeal 

Chairman Stuart Mitchell and a number of other special donors, the 

School is able to offer up to £500,000 of Matched Funding for all gifts 

received before 1 July 2016. This means that any donation made will 

be matched £1 for £1, in effect doubling the value of your donation. 

There are a number of ways in which you can make the most of 

this opportunity: 

• Join others in supporting a named Music Studio, room or a concert. 

• Sign up for a number of highly memorable events throughout the 

centenary year, culminating in the ten-day Gala Festival. 

• Participate in our ‘Buy a Brick’ scheme. If you would like to purchase an 

individual brick paver for display in the courtyard of the Music Studios 

for £50, you will be able to leave your mark for generations to come. 

For further information, please contact me direct on 01932 584797 

or at anthony.medhurst@yehudimenuhinschool.co.uk 

I look forward to hearing from you. 

Thank you.

Showcase Concerts provide an opportunity for 

pupils to perform in front of an appreciative,

their love of music. 

Programmes are selected from a broad range 

of music that is being studied at any one time 

in the School. The Director of Music consults 

with the instrumental teachers and together 

they decide which pieces are ready to present 

to the public.

Surrey County Youth Choir 

Charlotte-Anne Shipley Nedda 

Oliver Gibbs Tonio 

Sasho Ujgunoski Canio 

Diego Gaston Zamudio Peppe 

Inspired by an incident which occurred to Leoncavallo 

as a child, this highly impassioned and dramatic opera 

is composed in verismo style. 

Canio and his travelling comedy troupe arrive at a 

town for a show scheduled for the coming evening. 

Unbeknownst to him, his wife Nedda has fallen in 

love with another man. 

As Canio discovers the truth about Nedda, 

he is confronted with the fact that in spite 

of his heartbreak the show must go on. 

When the curtain does go up, all boundaries of fiction 

and reality become blurred and the audience is left in 

nail-biting suspense as to what unscripted fate is left 

for our actors. 

Sung in Italian with English surtitles and 

piano accompanist.

Australia National Touring Opera. 

The Friends of The Yehudi Menuhin School 

continue to support the School by regularly 

attending many of the concerts held at 

the Hall. Not only are they a warm and 

appreciative audience for our very talented 

young musicians but, as a group, they also 

contribute in other ways. These include the 

organisation of a number of fundraising 

events which help to finance pupil bursaries. 

Some of these are held at the Hall itself, 

such as the Bridge Teas, whilst others are 

held outside the School. We are also looking 

at new initiatives that encourage everyone 

to take part whilst enjoying a convivial 

atmosphere. Look out for further details. 

Many of our long-standing Friends tell us 

that they particularly enjoy following our 

pupils as they progress through the School 

and, indeed, after they leave and become 

professional musicians. Friends may, 

therefore, be particularly interested in the 

summer exhibition of work by the artist 

Geraldine van Heemstra who over the last 

year has been drawing the pupils as they 

rehearse and perform. Full details are on 

page 6 of this brochure. 

We are very grateful for all of the support 

which the Friends give to the School. In 

return Friends enjoy benefits such as priority 

booking for concerts, termly mailings and 

invitations to preconcert receptions and 

other Friends events.
