Elizabeth Bay House Concert: The Much Admired Australian Quadrilles by William Ellard
William Ellard (d. c. 1838/39): ‘The Much Admired Australian Quadrilles’ (Dublin and Sydney, 1835) (arr. for pianoforte trio):
[i] La Sydney; [ii] La Wooloomooloo [sic]; [iii] La Illawarra; [iv] La Bong-Bong; [v] La Engehurst
Annie Gard (violin)
Daniel Yeadon (violoncello)
Neal Peres Da Costa (pianoforte)
Dublin-born Francis Ellard, Sydney’s earliest specialist music publisher, advertised his first sheet music titles late in 1835. Ellard engraved all of his later sheet music himself and had it printed in Sydney, but in this first instance, he commissioned his brother William in Ireland to arrange the music, print it there in Dublin, and ship it out to the colony to be sold. As Cavendish had done in this earlier set, the Ellards gave each of the quadrilles a local title. All five are based on tunes popular in the 1830s, including two still well-known today, in the first quadrille the grand march from Bellini’s Norma, and in the last the troop song The Girl I Left Behind Me.
‘On the Plains of Emu: Settler Art Music in Early NSW’, Elizabeth Bay House, Sydney, 27 February 2022. A concert presented by the Sydney Living Museums Foundation and Hearing the Music of Early New South Wales 1788-1860, Conservatorium of Music, The University of Sydney. Australian Research Discovery Project DP210101511 – 2021–24.
