This page contains a record of the cyclic compositions rung by College Youths from 1992 to mid 2008.
This spreadsheet sets out to record all the compositions of Cyclic Spliced Maximus rung by the College Youths between the first, in 1992, and the present date, mid-2008: a total of 100 peals, 83 of which have been rung by the 'First Saturday' tower-bell band which has been organised since 1995, plus some notable 'firsts' by the handbell band. 'Cyclic' here refers to compositions with rotating part-ends, such as 167890ET2345 or 67890ET12345, which thus produce music very different from conventional compositions. A whole new vein of creativity has been inspired, aimed at discovering the fresh musical potential, and the creativity continues.
The greatest enjoyment of cyclic music came about with the advent of 'link methods', which allowed peals to be composed using entirely plain-course music, without bobs or singles, and led to the creation of 'designer methods' with particularly musical individual leads designed to fit into a particular cyclic composition structure, to increase the total number of 4-, 5-, 6-, 7- and 8-bell 'runs' within the composition. Link methods were first conceived by Rod Pipe for his 3-spliced Bristol, Maypole and Lynx rung in 1994, and picked up more widely by other composers, notably Steve Coaker from 1997, David Pipe from 1999 and John Warboys from 2002, accompanied by an increasing flow of highly musical designer methods.
The spreadsheet includes note of all the occasions on which new methods were rung for the first time, and describes all methods in accordance with the liberalised Method Definitions adopted by the Central Council in 2001, which particularly affected the description of link methods. Most of these are now described straightforwardly as Differential methods, whereas previously they often had to be described artificially as bobbed or singled leads of some method which was never rung in plain lead form.
This is not a complete compendium of all Cyclic Spliced Maximus compositions ever rung, only those rung by the College Youths. The St James' Guild 1993 record length of 15,840 all-the-work 30-spliced Maximus was composed by John Leary on a cyclic plan, using bobs to shift the bells, as was a David Hull peal composition in 1994. Several of the compositions in this spreadsheet, as noted in the text, were first rung by the St Martin's Guild in Birmingham. In recent years a number of composers have produced various cyclic compositions making more use of standard methods, with the aim of making cyclic music accessible to more bands.
One minor question that arose along the way was the question of attribution, since with these cyclic structures, method design often takes up more time than composition structure. Rod Pipe thought that credit should be given for method design, and possibly method selection, separately from composition structure. Tony Smith advised that any composition giving a different order of leads is technically a fresh composition, but acknowledged there were no hard rules about what constitutes an 'arrangement'; subjectively it was to do with the extent of modification. Half-jokingly it was suggested that one justification for 'arranged by' could be where the original composer might not approve of what was being done to his composition. It remains a fuzzy area, and with hindsight, the attributions made here are not always the same as originally published.
We are indebted to the pioneering composers who created the ground-breaking compositions that have underpinned these years of enjoyable cyclic spliced ringing. The basic compositions have been subjected to numerous method variations and arrangements, and I would like to thank David House for his help over the years in proving many such variations. I would also like to thank Tony Smith for his help with link method nomenclatures; rather than publish and argue afterwards, I generally consulted Tony beforehand, saying 'this is what we want to ring, how should we describe it', and found Tony unfailingly helpful and constructive.
