A new subscription paper called for, allocating only a proportion of the money already subscribed to the original bridge; and another bridge proposed lower down the river, to which no opposition or intention of an opposition was or is intended , by the Subscribers presumably It can only be designed to put pressure on someone, but whom? And who exactly is applying the pressure? Are the Subscribers now split? and, Abraham Darby clearly wishes to be free of his commitment to build an iron bridge and the committee agree to release him. At the same time they choose to go ahead with a bridge as planned and to the original specifications but since iron is not mentioned they seem prepared to consider a conventional design. There is a further development at the next meeting on 28 July 1776. Presumably no satisfactory tenders have been received by the deadline of 20 June and there have been further discussions resulting in a modified plan for the bridge again produced by Pritchard . This plan has not survived. How far it differed from his original is not known, but the committee now agree

Extractions: Bridge's music - beautifully crafted and full of haunting imagination - was much played in the earlier part of his career, during which time he was himself a fine chamber music player and conductor. His later music, particularly such works as the Piano Sonata, Violin Sonata and the Third and Fourth String Quartets, adopted a more radical style to which the general musical public could much less easily respond. For some 30 years after his death his major works were little played, but since the early 1970s interest has been growing steadily. Benjamin Britten, who owed much to Bridge's teaching, drew attention to his master's music and performed it whenever he could. The Sea Summer Two Poems and, later, Phantasm and There is a willow grows aslant a brook . They also published all his important piano music, his only choral work of any size, A Prayer and his one opera

Extractions: Frank Bridge Frank Bridge, underappreciated, underplayed, and still little known even in his native England, is most frequently recognized today as the teacher of the young Benjamin Britten, who acknowledged his teacher's influence in a popular early work, . Bridge's sizable musical catalog is devoted primarily to chamber music and songs; he wrote orchestral music but composed no symphonies and only one work he called a concerto, Oration, Concerto Elegiaco for Cello and Orchestra. Born in Brighton in 1879, Frank Bridge was the tenth of twelve children of William Henry Bridge, a violin teacher and music hall conductor, and the first child of his third marriage. Frank began violin lessons with his father and by age eleven had started to compose, play in his father's orchestra, sometimes substituting on other instruments, and occasionally to arrange and conduct. In 1896 he entered the Royal College of Music as a violin and piano student and after winning the Foundation Scholarship became a composition student of Charles Villiers Stanford. His first surviving composition is dated 1900. After switching to the viola he continued performing, especially in string quartets and he conducted frequently, often called upon to fill in at short notice for ailing conductors. A shy, retiring man who never accepted a regular conducting post, he supplemented slumping post-war income by teaching violin both to private pupils and in schools. The music of Bridge's first period, some of which he later disowned, was quite Impressionistic but not especially original and, perhaps for that reason, won some popularity. World War I left Bridge, a devout lifelong pacifist, with profound, deep psychic scars. From that time his music became much darkermore abstract and experimental. His late music was almost twelve-tone, although he was neither a serialist nor a follower of Schoenberg. His music is much more international than that of his compatriots, perhaps because of the German influence of his early training, and this may be another reason he never achieved great popularity. ~

The work Variations on a Theme of Frank Bridge for String Orchestra The Sea and was "knocked sideways" by what he heard. Four years later, he embarked on a course of intensive study with Bridge, who would have a profound influence on his musical development. The Second String Quartet is considered his first mature chamber music masterpiece and one of his finest achievements. It is a very melodic work, highly chromatic, with a passionate, erotic intensity found in few British composers of the time but reminiscent of the early music of Alban Berg. Bridge, himself a professional violist and quartet member had consummate skill in writing for that medium. The work was awarded the Cobbett Prize in 1915. The namesake of this prize for chamber music was a businessman and amateur violinist, Walter Willson Cobbett (1847-1937), who had a special love of the Elizabethan "Phantasy" form. Bridge won four Cobbett Prizes for the Phantasie String Quartet (1910), the
