Last Night of the First Edinburgh Musical Festival 1815 and a new edition in 2015 ...
We mentioned last week that Karen will be giving a talk at Edinburgh Central Library on Friday afternoon - the Bicentenary of the First Edinburgh Musical Festival (Friday, 30th October 2015).
By sheer coincidence, she has just catalogued a new authoritative edition of the final piece that was performed in 1815: one of Handel's famous Coronation Anthems!Find it in the Whittaker Library Catalogue, here.
