Women and Music in Ireland Conference

Women and Music in Ireland Conference

The Music Department, National University of Ireland, Maynooth

17 April 2010

In association with The Society for Musicology in Ireland and An Foras Feasa

Women's involvement in music in Ireland has been evident since the eighteenth century but their contribution has often been neglected or forgotten. This Conference hopes to begin to highlight their involvement across the centuries in all genres of music in Ireland. The Conference will also include two concerts featuring music by female composers from the nineteenth-, twentieth- and twenty-first centuries. The keynote address will be given by Dr. Ita Beausang.
