Irish Musical Studies 8: Bach Studies from Dublin.
Author: LEAHY, Anne & TOMITA, Yo (Editors).
Dublin: Four Courts Press, 2004. 270 pages. Hardback.
The eighth volume in the Irish Musical Studies series contains fourteen selected papers presented at the ninth biennial conference on Baroque music, which was held at Trinity College Dublin.
The conference had a special emphasis on Bach Studies, as it commemorated the 250th anniversary of the death of Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750). Among the papers are the three key-note addresses by Robin Leaver, John Butt and Hans-Joachim Schulze.
Anne Leahy is a lecturer at the DIT Conservatory of Music and Drama in Dublin. Yo Tomita is a reader in music at Queens University Belfast.
The jacket design, by space, incorporates a detail of a reproduction of a vocal part (bass) specially engraved for the 1865 Trinity College Dublin performance of the ‘Crucifixus’ from Bach’s Mass in B minor, with kind permission of the University of Dublin Choral Society and the Board of Trinity College Dublin.
