Focusing on the period from 1700 to 1900, this book challenges the notion of a "dark age" in British musical history by highlighting the vibrant musical culture that emerged outside London. It presents new archival research that reveals the organization, reach, and quality of music in the provinces, showcasing a distinctive and rich musical life that flourished by 1750. This fresh perspective sheds light on the often-overlooked contributions of regional music, enriching the understanding of Britain's musical heritage during this era.
