My review of George Kennaway’s impressive monograph has just appeared in Brio vol.59 no.2 (Autumn/Winter 2022), pp.62-63.

Brio is the IAML(UK & Ireland) journal – the professional publication of British and Irish music librarians.
Today, I was pleased to receive notification of the latest issue of Brio, the journal of my professional association. I’ve been a member of IAML(UK and Ireland) for – well, over 35 years now! The latest issue has my review of a book by a scholar whom I admire greatly – it was a privilege to review his book, and of course I am delighted to add the review copy to my own bookshelves as well! I’ve uploaded a copy of the review to our institutional repository – it’ll go live in the next few days – but for now, here’s the citation, and a direct link to my review:-
Brio vol.57 no.2, Autumn/Winter 2020, pp.74-76,
Review of:- James Porter, Beyond Fingal’s Cave: Ossian in the Musical Imagination (University of Rochester Press, 2019)
It occurred to me that you might like to know which books were reviewed in the special issue, since their titles don’t appear in the contents list:-
Network members are enthusiastically typing away at the moment, as the deadline for our Brio special issue looms closer! I’ve done a couple of book reviews, and have one more to tackle. Today, I was thinking about matters as apparently disparate as copyright, romanticism, bootlegging and modern recording techniques. Does that sound weird or intriguing to you? I thought it was an excellent book – but you’ll have to wait until the next issue of Brio to read my review!!
One of our network members has spotted a useful review of Literary Print Cultures, in Reference Reviews. I’m very grateful to be alerted to this.
