The Research Foundation for Music in Ireland is delighted to announce the launch of a new free-to-access online resource detailing the who, what, where and when of the historic music trade in Dublin.
In a city so musically rich as Vienna it’s difficult to single out one particular highlight, but for me it was the concert at the Musikverein. To hear music by the great Viennese masters played so well and on such wonderful period instruments was one thing, but to have in the same Konzertsaal the autograph manuscripts of the music we were hearing was a unique experience. Many thanks to all our Austrian colleagues for a truly great week.
Back issues of The Journal published by the Elgar Society are now available online free of charge at www.elgar.org, opening up a 15-year archive of articles, essays and research papers to all those with an interest in Elgar and his legacy.
