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.

Paul ROAZEN,
Scholar And Writer: (1936-2005)
York University professor chronicled the development of psychoanalysis
and explored Sigmund Freud's complex relationships with Friends,
family and followers
By Stephen
STRAUSS,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Thursday,
December 8, 2005, Page S9
Toronto -- Of the many accomplishments that could be attributed
to York University professor Paul
ROAZEN, perhaps the most lasting
may be that he created a field of study that had never existed
meta-psychotherapy.
Over the course of a long and extraordinarily productive career,
the teacher of social and political science deconstructed the
many different relationships that existed within the world of
psychotherapy, particularly those that wove in and around its
iconic founder, Sigmund Freud.
"He was not involved in psychotherapy itself, but he was involved
in the analysis of psychoanalysis," says Cyril
GREENLAND, a former
professor of social work at McMaster University and a friend
of Dr. ROAZEN.
The bedrock of his work were lengthy interviews that Dr.
ROAZEN
conducted in the early 1960s with 70 of Freud's patients and
colleagues -- interviews that uncovered quirks and diversions
in the techniques that eventually turned into psychoanalytic
orthodoxy. Among the striking findings was the revelation that
the classic position of a psychoanalyst and his patient -- patient
verbalizing on couch, doctor sitting behind him silently taking
notes -- wasn't how the process originally began.
Freud was initially quite chatty and spoke directly to his patients
until surgery for mouth-and-throat cancer made him so self-conscious
about his appearance that he preferred to interview without being
seen.
Dr. ROAZEN also revealed that Freud had broken what might be
thought of as the sacrosanct boundary between patient and parent
by psychoanalyzing his daughter Anna. His deconstruction of Freud
and his methods infuriated the psychoanalytic community in general
and Anna FREUD in particular. So much so that she subsequently
wrote in a letter: "Everything Paul
ROAZEN writes is a menace."
But illustrative of how much Dr.
ROAZEN saw his duty to speak
the truth as he saw it, the remark was something he quoted proudly.
Another classic among his other 22 books was Brother Animal,
in which Dr.
ROAZEN (pronounced Roe-zuhn) unravelled the relationship
between Freud and Viktor
TAUSK -- a student who became a brilliant
but troubled colleague, was the lover of one early woman psychiatrist
and the patient of another, and eventually committed suicide.
A reviewer in The New York Times called the book "an altogether
compelling excursion into psychoanalytic history that develops
like an intellectual mystery story."
Following in the path of Freud, who co-wrote a psychoanalytic
history of Woodrow Wilson, Dr.
ROAZEN published in 1998 a study
of Mackenzie
KING,
Canada's
King: An
Essay in Political Psychology.
In 1916, after King fell into a deep depression, he went to Johns
Hopkins University for treatment by a psychiatrist. Using notes
and letters in the Johns Hopkins archives, Dr.
ROAZEN produced
a vivid picture of a man so mentally disturbed he believed other
people were influencing him through electrical currents and,
conversely, that he could influence them back with currents he
generated himself.
In a review of the book, Paul
ADAM/ADAMS, a former Globe and Mail
Middle
East correspondent, wrote that Dr.
ROAZEN's "cautious,
knowledgeable and sympathetic approach cuts quite a contrast
to the half-baked psychologizing we read all the time about everyone
from Saddam Hussein to Lucien Bouchard."
Part of what ensured Dr.
ROAZEN's even-handedness was his phenomenal
memory for detail -- particularly when it came to Freud.
"If you would ask him what Freud did on September 2, 1916, he
would ask back, 'In the morning or afternoon?' -- that's how
detailed his memory was," recounts Hans
MOHR, a friend of 40
years and a former colleague of Dr.
ROAZEN's at York.
But, like the subject matter he pursued, it was difficult to
encapsulate Dr.
ROAZEN in a single frame.
He was born in Massachusetts and attended Harvard University,
where he received his doctorate in 1965. He soon joined the faculty
and stayed until 1971, when he moved to Toronto's York University
as part of a stream of new professors joining a quickly growing
institution full of multi-disciplinary energy. "His persona was
his work; his life was his work," his son Jules said about his
father's central passion.
As a teacher, Dr.
ROAZEN was, in equal parts, brilliant, daunting
and acidulously dismissive. While open to students on many levels,
"Paul often overwhelmed undergraduates with the breadth and diversity
of his historical allusions and references, expecting a depth
and sophistication... that many graduate students do not yet
possess," recalls Daniel
BURSTON, a former graduate student of
Dr. ROAZEN who now teaches at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh.
As an individual, he also was -- the word is used repeatedly
by people who knew him -- irascible. "He could be very bad tempered
and very demanding," says Prof.
GREENLAND. "On the other hand,
he could be very wise and very generous and very helpful. On
any given day, it was difficult to predict which Paul
ROAZEN
you would get."
Author
John
Robert
COLOMBO, who was a friend, recounts attending
a presentation by a graduate student to a small group of people
where Dr. ROAZEN exploded because "it was not up to the master's
level, and, oh, it was appalling. He later followed and phoned
everyone and didn't apologize but gave reason for his attack,
as though there was no moral culpability there."
Nonetheless, the energy that he put into analyzing psychoanalysis
produced works so instructive both to the therapy community and
to those wishing to understand the effect of the psychotherapy
world view on the intellectual zeitgeist of the 20th century
that any personal flaws were overlooked by those who came after.
"I think Paul's greatest contribution to psychotherapy was his
willingness to confront legends and, in the process, to reveal
truth," said Deirdre Bair, the British author of a much-praised
biography of psychotherapist Carl Jung. "He did not hesitate
to go where angels fear to tread and, in the process, he trampled...
many iconic images.
"His gift to the discipline was to seek out the truth, no matter
how unpleasant it might have been for the entrenched 'authorities'
to read it," says Ms. Bair, who had been encouraged by Dr.
ROAZEN
to write the Jung book.
"Whether they know it or not, everyone working in this field
today is directly or indirectly in his debt," says Prof.
BURSTON.
After taking early retirement from York, Dr.
ROAZEN moved to
Cambridge, Massachusetts., and continued writing. He was elected
a member of the Royal Society of Canada in 1993 and made an honorary
member of the American Psychoanalytic Association in 2004.
Paul ROAZEN was born in Boston in 1936. He died of complications
from Crohn's disease at his home in Cambridge on November 3.
He was 69. He leaves his sons Daniel
HELLER-
ROAZEN, a professor
of comparative literature at Princeton University, and Jules
ROAZEN, a banker in New York; a brother, Dr. Bernard
ROAZEN,
of San Francisco; and a sister, Sheila
WEISS, of Westport, Connecticut.
His marriage to Deborah
HELLER, now a professor of English at
York University, ended in divorce.
