Roy Ayers has made it his duty to visit these shores every December, usually turning up for a week-long session at Ronnie Scott’s. The venue may have changed, but what we get is the same Ayers and his vast repertoire of jazz-based funk. This Christmas, though, we could be in for an unexpected treat. In the Seventies and Eighties, Ayers, a prolific composer, wrote and recorded hundreds of songs that were never released. But of late the vibrist has been busy recording those long-forgotten songs, and at these dates you can hear Ayers previewing those tracks. If you can’t get to the gigs, Ayers has kindly released the collection of songs as Roy Ayers presents Virgin Ubiquity: Unreleased 1976-1981. The residency, and the CD, will take us back to when Ayers ruled the jazz-funk universe. Richard Liston

Mendelssohn wrote the celebrated overture to Midsummer as a standalone concert piece in 1826, when he was seventeen years old. Seventeen years later he returned to the score at the urging of King Friedrich Wilhelm of Prussia, when he was serving as court director of music. By this time, Shakespeare’s plays were highly regarded throughout Continental Europe, and the king had given his assent to a performance of Midsummer Night’s Dream. He asked Mendelssohn to provide songs, entr’actes and brief orchestral episodes for insertion at appropriate points in the play. Some of these are familiar to audiences through their inclusion in the often played suite the composer drew from the incidental music: the Scherzo, with its flute solo, that accompanies Puck’s encounter with an elf in the forest; the Act III entr’acte, the Nocturne, with its unforgettable horn solo; the song “You spotted snakes”; and, of course, the well-known Wedding March. The complete score was given its premiere in a private performance of the play in October of 1843 at the Neue Palais in Potsdam, and Mendelssohn himself led the first concert presentation of the incidental music in May of 1844 in London.

Both of the New York performances had their merits, but their drawbacks too. The Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment plays on period-style instruments, and they could not approach the Philharmonic’s tonal richness: the rushing string figurations of the overture’s first subject after the opening woodwind chords were gossamer light in the Philharmonic’s hands, and the Nocturne’s luscious horn solo, splendidly rendered by the Philharmonic’s veteran first horn, Philip Myers, had the audience holding its breath. Similarly with the vocal contributions: the Choir of the Age of Enlightenment performed ably, but Joseph Flummerfelt’s women of the New York Choral Artists outclassed them, and the same went for the Enlightenment’s soloists, drawn from the ranks of the Choir: the Philharmonic’s soprano Susan Gritton and mezzo-soprano Patricia Risley were delightfully fleet and sure.
