Structure, Governance & Management

The Trust Deed is the governing document for the trust. At the end of our seventh year as a charity, two of the original trustees will step down and will be replaced. No external persons are entitled to appoint trustees. Trustee meetings are normally held three times a year to review the financial and operational state of the charity and to make key strategic decisions. Activity currently remains small, but constantly high in quality, impactful and focussed on the charitable objects, and the trustees exchange updates via email.

Objectives & Activities

Goldfield Productions create 'adventures in sound' for everyone; we find ways of presenting music and art that transform the everyday into the extraordinary and reawaken our ears. The charitable objectives of the CIO are:

The charity’s activities to achieve the objectives include the organisation and delivery of high quality cross-arts events for the public, concerts that regularly include contemporary and lesser known repertoire and delivery of regular education workshops to inspire and educate students at primary and secondary schools across the United Kingdom.

Achievements & performance

Between 1[st] April 2023 and 31[st] March 2024 the charity has maintained financial stability. The trustees have had regard to Charity Commission guidance on public benefit. In keeping with our aims to deliver lesser known repertoire, this year has been dedicated to the discovery and generation of new music. No funds have been spent on this research.

As reported in the annual report for 2022-23, the ensemble has returned to its roots as a clarinet quintet with a desire to generate new music to add to the limited repertoire for this ensemble. From July 2023 to February 2024, Kate spent time at the British Light Music Library (Bolton), the British Library (London) and other UK archives unearthing light popular music from the early days of BBC Broadcasting. These finely crafted miniatures have great programming potential and seven new arrangements of music by Ernest Tomlinson and Adam Carse have been created this year, exclusively for the use of Goldfield Ensemble. We are pleased to have been granted full permission from the publishers (Stainer & Bell for Adam Carse) and Hilary Ashton (Ernest Tomlinson’s daughter) to create, perform and record the music.

On 15 September 2023, Goldfield performed the first of the Adam Carse arrangements at Stapleford Granary, which were very warmly received and generated much interest. Plans for 2024-25 include further public performances of the new Tomlinson / Carse repertoire and promotional recordings, with a view to record an album in 25-26 and make this music more widely known.

The year also saw considerable research into the life and loves of poet Philip Larkin for a new production (premiere September 2024). This combines storytelling, jazz and the use of projected images from Larkin’s own photography, thanks to a fruitful collaboration with Hull History Archives and the Larkin Society.

Financial Review
