This collection of essays by some of the leading scholars in the
field looks at various aspects of musical life in
eighteenth-century Britain. The significant roles played by
institutions such as the Freemasons and foreign embassy chapels in
promoting music making and introducing foreign styles to English
music are examined, as well as the influence exerted by
individuals, both foreign and British. The book covers the spectrum
of British music, both sacred and secular, and both cosmopolitan
and provincial. In doing so it helps to redress the picture of
eighteenth-century British music which has previously portrayed
Handel and London as its primary constituents.
