This collection situates the North-East within a developing
nationwide account of British musical culture. Music in North-East
England provides a wide-ranging exploration of musical life in the
North-East of England during the early modern period. It
contributes to a growing number of studies concerned with
developing a nationwide account of British musical culture. By
defining the North-East in its widest sense, the collection
illuminates localised differences, distinct musical cultures in
urban centres and rural locations, as well as region-wide networks,
and situates regional musical life in broader national and
international contexts. Music in North-East England affords new
insights into aspects of musical life that have been the focus of
previous studies of British musical life - such as public concerts
- but also draws attention to aspects that have attracted less
scholarly attention in histories of early modern British musical
culture: the musical activities and tastes of non-elite consumers;
interactions between art music and cheap print and popular song;
music education beyond London and its satellite environs; the
recovery of northern urban soundscapes; and the careers of
professional musicians who have not previously been the focus of
major published musicological studies.
