Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. xxvi, 627 pages + 32 of illustrations. Original publisher's cloth, spine lettered gilt, with unclipped dust jacket. The history of the Royal Irish Academy of Music is the history of music education in modern Ireland. Founded in 1848 by some of Ireland's best-k…nown musicians and public figures to create a school of musicianship and to meet the orchestral needs of Dublin's music societies, it has grown into a major international public service organisation which embraces students at all levels across the musical spectrum. This history traces its origins, profiles its founders and early staff, and chronicles the phases in its development. It sets the narrative of the RIAM's in the context of cultural, political and social development in the past 150 years and brings to life the generations of governors, staff and students - many of them colourful characters such as Joseph Robinson, Sir Robert Stewart, John F. Larchet and Dorothy Stokes - who have built up its resources and created the atmosphere within which music flourishes. A fine copy without any damage, library stamps, inscriptions or other markings. *** WEIGHT OVER 1.4 KG, EXTRA SHIPPING CHARGE (AT COST) WILL BE REQUESTED FOR DELIVERIES OUTSIDE OF IRELAND AND UNITED KINGDOM ***.
