Documents of Irish Music History in the Long 19th Century
This volume presents extracts from a number of documents from the long nineteenth century that pertain to the history of music in Ireland. The documents fall into one of three categories: musical notation, text, image. Each chapter contains a copy of a document (or an extract) along with an essay that provides context, explanation and interpretation. The editors have sought to represent a broad range of documents that address aspects of the history of music in Ireland: social history; the economics of musical life; performance practice; musical taste and repertoire; theory and aesthetics; the historiography of Irish music history; national identity, the traditional repertoire. The Irish Musical Studies series is published in association with the Society for Musicology in Ireland.

Irish Musical Analysis
The extraordinary rise of musicology in Ireland over the last 20 years has generated an increased interest in the sister discipline of music theory and analysis. Irish Musical Analysis highlights this development and presents a substantial cross-section of the current state of the discipline in two main parts. Part I of the book offers analytical perspectives on compositional techniques used by Irish composers, including Kevin Volans, Roger Doyle, A.J. Potter, John Kinsella, Eric Sweeney, and Gerald Barry. Part II engages more broadly with mainstream theoretical and analytical topics and embraces a wide range of works, genres, and approaches, including repertoire from the early 19th to the later 20th century (Schubert, Chopin, Brahms, Bruckner, Nielsen, Sibelius), as well as theoretical perspectives from Schenkerian theory and sonata theory to post-tonal voice leading and serialism.

Music and Identity in Ireland and Beyond
Music and Identity in Ireland and Beyond represents the first interdisciplinary volume of chapters on an intricate cultural field that can be experienced and interpreted in manifold ways, whether in Ireland (The Republic of Ireland and/or Northern Ireland), among its diaspora(s), or further afield. While each contributor addresses particular themes viewed from discrete perspectives, collectively the book contemplates whether ’music in Ireland’ can be regarded as one interrelated plane of cultural and/or national identity, given the various conceptions and contexts of both Ireland (geographical, political, diasporic, mythical) and Music (including a proliferation of practices and genres) ...
