'Edward Bunting as Collector' - Simon Chadwick

About this event

Cruit Éireann, Harp Ireland presents 'Edward Bunting as a Collector' - a live, online talk from Simon Chadwick, Sunday 23 May 2021, 5pm.

Edward Bunting is famous for saving the music of the old Irish harpers.

This talk will look in more detail at his work "on the ground", how he travelled around and met the harpers and other musicians, and how he went about the collecting process. We will look at some of his notebooks from Queen's University Belfast and talk about what we can deduce about his working methods from them.

Simon Chadwick is widely acknowledged to be one of the most important international experts on the history and traditions of the early Irish harp, helping to spearhead the current revival. In mid-2018, he relocated from Scotland and now lives in Armagh, where he researches, teaches, and performs the ancient native music traditions of Scotland, Ireland, and neighbouring countries.

As well as giving talks and presentations, until recently Simon documented his research on his information website, earlygaelicharp.info, the pre-eminent published source of information on the early Gaelic harp and its traditions. He now presents his research work on his blog at www.simonchadwick.net. Simon has published a pair of tutor books outlining the historical tradition, a book on advanced playing techniques, and articles in the scholarly journals Early Music, and The Galpin Society Journal.
