Susan GRAVES,
Musician (1954-2005)
Connecticut-born bassoonist who 'played like an angel' fell in
love with chamber music and co-founded Canada's now-famous Tafelmusik
Baroque
Orchestra, writes Sandra
MARTIN
By Sandra MARTIN,
Saturday,
October 8, 2005, Page S9
Susan GRAVES, co-founder of Tafelmusik, the internationally acclaimed
Baroque orchestra, played the bassoon like an angel and looked
as though she had just stepped out of a painting by Dante Gabriel
Rossetti. She had long, wavy copper-coloured hair, blue eyes,
freckles, a calm authority and a legendary kindness.
"She had the most beautiful chocolaty, velvety bassoon sound
that I have ever encountered," says Jeanne
LAMON, music director
of Tafelmusik. "She played solos with us frequently in the early
years and it was always a highlight for everybody. She was a
marvellous musician."
Susan "Susie"
GRAVES was the younger child and only daughter
of John GRAVES, a chemical engineer and his wife
Jane
Elizabeth,
always known as Betty. Susan went to school in Westport, Connecticut.
"As soon as she learned to read, she took piano lessons," her
mother said this week. Every weekday morning, Susan, the Siamese
cat Baby, and her mother would get up half an hour early and
go downstairs to the family room where Susan practised on an
old upright piano. "The cat sat in my lap and when Susan was
finished it would get up and walk back and forth across the keys,"
said Mrs. GRAVES.
At Staples High School, Ms.
GRAVES fooled around with an old
clarinet that had belonged to her father. Her parents meant to
rent a better instrument, but her music teacher said no, we need
a bassoon player. Ms.
GRAVES obliged and the bassoon became her
instrument. "It is not easy to play," her father conceded in
a conversation from the
GRAVES's retirement home in a suburb
of Minneapolis.
After high school, Ms.
GRAVES attended the New England Conservatory
of Music in Boston where she received a bachelor's degree in
1972 and began studying for her master's. That's where she met
her future husband Kenneth (Kenny)
SOLWAY, an oboist from Toronto,
in October of 1975.
Sharing a love of music and period instruments, they went to
Europe together in 1976 to study at the Sweelinck Conservatory
in Amsterdam and at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague. "We
wanted to play chamber music," her husband said this week from
their home in Cobourg Ontario "It didn't matter whether it was
baroque or modern."
The couple dreamed up the idea for what is now the Tafelmusik
Baroque Orchestra and Chamber Choir, while they were still in Holland
and even played a couple of "table-music" chamber concerts with
two Friends. They returned to Toronto in 1978, burbling with
schemes and enthusiasm, started the Toronto Chamber Music Collective
and presented chamber and orchestral concerts of contemporary
and baroque music in small theatres and churches in downtown
Toronto.
Their vision was immediately embraced by a number of musicians
including double bass player Alison
MacKAY, harpsichordist Charlotte
NEDIGER and violist Ivars
TAURINS all of whom still play with
Tafelmusik, more than 25 years later.
"Everything they did in the beginning was exactly the right thing
to do," says violinist Jeanne
LAMON, who has been music director
of Tafelmusik since 1981. Ms.
GRAVES and Mr.
SOLWAY worked as
a team, trying out different people, training modern players
in baroque techniques and even landing a Wintario grant to buy
bows and wind instruments for the fledgling orchestra and organizing
a tour to New York City. "They booked without having an orchestra
and pulled it off. We got a good review."
Mr. SOLWAY was the talker with the "go-gettum energy," according
to Ms. LAMON, and Ms.
GRAVES was the grounded one with the practical
skills to write grant proposals and persuade musicians to join
them.
"She was a brilliant musician with a beautiful sound and virtuosic
technique," said Alison
MacKAY. "I regarded her as a mentor."
It was "heartrending" at a recent Tafelmusik concert when she
recognized Ms.
GRAVES's handwriting on the music sheets. "The
fact that her presence is still felt, is because her talent penetrated
every arena of the organization. She did everything. She played
like an angel, she pasted posters on lamp posts, she organized
accounts and she wrote out all the parts."
Playing with like-minded Friends and running an orchestra are
very different enterprises. "With an oboe in your mouth, you
can't talk very much," Mr.
SOLWAY explained this week from his
home in Cobourg, Ontario "I decided to be general director and
to let somebody else do the artistic managing in conjunction
with me."
Orchestras often have tensions between the string and wind players
and Tafelmusik was no exception. At the same time, imagining
an orchestra and running one demand different skill sets. Artistic
differences meant that Mr.
SOLWAY and Ms.
GRAVES went to Vienna
to study for a few months and then officially stepped down from
the running of the orchestra, although she continued to play
with Tafelmusik for a few years.
The couple spent a couple of years in a cabin in Algonquin Park
that had belonged to Mr.
SOLWAY's family. During winter, their
nearest neighbour was 10 miles away by snowshoe. And yet, "those
were by far the two most beautiful years of our lives," says
Mr. SOLWAY. "We realized then we were near-hermits -- and loved
it."
They bought canoe forms from the Chestnut Canoe Company after
it disbanded in 1979, and started making and marketing handmade
cedar-strip and canvas canoes. After Algonquin Park, they moved
to a farm north of Cobourg where they built their own house,
raised sheep and grew organic vegetables, which they would bring
in to Toronto to sell at the St. Lawrence Market.
Ms. GRAVES began playing as principal bassoonist with the Kingston
Symphony
Orchestra in the mid-1980s. Gordon
FAST became the musical
director in 1991.
"In the 14 years I worked with her, she commuted from Cobourg,"
he said. "That means driving through countless snow and ice storms
and I can never remember her missing a concert or a rehearsal."
Besides her dedication, she had a great sense of humour and was
always a happy part of the symphony," according to Mr.
FAST.
Principal oboist Barbara
BOLTE sat in front of Ms.
GRAVES for
the past five years. They became very good Friends especially
after the two of them spent an evening playing Baroque trio sonatas
together. "We were playing for fun but we realized we spoke the
same language."
Ms. BOLTE found her colleague "amazingly talented" and a very
strong player. "When I had to play a solo and she was playing
the bass part underneath I found it wonderfully supportive."
In March, Ms.
GRAVES played "an absolutely pristine and beautiful
Mozart bassoon concerto" in a Kingston Symphony Orchestra concert
according to Mr.
FAST. "It was astonishingly good, perfect really."
She finished the season and everything seemed fine. Of course,
it wasn't. Mr.
SOLWAY had begun noticing "weird little things"
in his wife's behaviour last November, but thought it was depression.
It wasn't until the Kingston Symphony Orchestra's summer concert
at Fort Henry in July that her musical colleagues spotted any
problems.
"Susie didn't play as well as usual," said Ms.
BOLTE. "
She was
making mistakes and she hardly ever played a wrong note or came
in late." After the concert Ms.
GRAVES complained that her eyes
hurt and that she couldn't see very well, but she thought a new
prescription from the optometrist would fix her up.
Mr. FAST agrees that "there were a few bobbles" in her playing.
He knew that she wasn't feeling well and he thought she would
soon be back in top form.
In fact, she was suffering the effects of a tumour that had began
in the emotional centre of her brain, according to Mr.
SOLWAY.
She quickly became sicker and, at Mr.
SOLWAY's urging, she was
taken to Toronto for treatment. She underwent an operation to
remove much of the tumour and then Mr.
SOLWAY took her home to
be with their teenage son Jesse, a double bass player, in Cobourg.
Susan Elizabeth
GRAVES was born on May 7, 1954 in Norwalk, Connecticut.
She died in Cobourg, Ontario, from a brain tumour on September
26, 2005. She was 51. She is survived by her husband Kenny
SOLWAY,
her son Jesse, her parents and a brother and his family. The
Kingston Symphony is dedicating its per formance of Verdi's Requiem
on Sunday, November 27, at the Kingston Gospel Temple, to her
memory.
