Book Synopsis The Keeper's Recital by : Harry White
Book excerpt: Surveys the development of musical thought in modern Irish cultural history from 1770-1970, studying how music functioned in the history of Irish ideas of the time. Dealing with figures such as Turlough Carolan, Edward Bunting, Thomas Moore and Sean O'Riada, White (music, University College, Dublin) explores both the composition and the preservation of Irish music and ponders why there was not a parallel in significance to the Literary Revival of that period.
