Description

Explore the social and musical history of the guitar in Victorian England with this ground-breaking study from Cambridge University Press. This book examines the Victorian revival of guitar playing, focusing on the era when amateur musicians were at the heart of the movement. Through stories like that of Clara Lindow, who performed ballads in Cumbrian hamlets, the text reveals how the instrument was used for vocal accompaniment. This specific aspect of musical performance has often been overlooked or denied in previous histories, but this work brings it to the forefront. It provides a detailed look at the players and the cultural impact of the instrument during this transformative period. Whether you are a student of classical music or a historian interested in musical reception, this book offers a fresh perspective on how the guitar functioned within the social fabric of the time. It serves as a vital resource for understanding the role of amateur musicians and the evolution of musical performance in the 19th century.
