Annual Report 2021-2022

Our activity in 2021-2022 was centred round one highly successful project.

Trustees determined in 2020 that they would conserve funds gathered over the lockdowns of COVID until the time came to support our trustee, Kate Kennedy, in the celebration of her remarkable work Dweller in Shadows: A Life of Ivor Gurney, the first comprehensive biography of this superb but misunderstood artist. Ivor Gurney (1890–1937) wrote some of the most anthologized poems of the First World War and composed some of the greatest works in the English song repertoire, such as Sleep. Yet his life was shadowed by the trauma of the war and mental illness, and he spent his last fifteen years confined to a mental asylum.

We were delighted to donate £3,000 to enable Kate to put on two superb and well-supported events at the Jacqueline du Pre Music Centre at St Hilda’s College, Oxford, on 8[th] October 2021, the first day of the Oxford Lieder Festival.

In the first event Kate demonstrated the profound influence of the Gloucestershire landscape on the poetry and music of Gurney, with fine performances illustrating the talk given by soprano Anna Cavaliero and pianist Natalie Burch. https://www.oxfordlieder.co.uk/event/1262

Later in the evening, the tenors Robin Tritschler and Robert Murray and the pianist Simon Over came together to perform Kate’s creation To His Love, a dramatised recital that explored Gurney’s feelings and extraordinary achievements in war and in the sad years of his restricted life as inmate of a mental asylum https://www.oxfordlieder.co.uk/event/1264

Sholto Kynoch, the Artistic Director of the Festival, told Kate what a wonderful start the events gave the Festival and the number of compliments he had received on Kate’s talk and the performance of To His Love . He also wrote to Nick Peacey, our Secretary, who was in the audience for both performances, ‘Thank you once again for the most generous support of the Gallipoli Music Memorial trust, which enabled these very special events to go ahead.’
