'It is a pleasure to welcome this volume celebrating the career of Nicholas Temperley, the pioneering inspiration for virtually all modern scholarly study of British music... Taken all in all, the richness of this volume, together with the specificity and variety of its research projects into unexplored corners, makes it a fitting tribute to Nicholas Temperley and a highly informative addition to the literature on British music.' North American British Music Studies Association Newsletter 'In short, this volume offers a fitting tribute to the work of Nicholas Temperley and a testimony to what this work served to generate... It is rewarding to see that a clearer picture of history of music and musical activity in Britain is emerging in tandem with an ever more convincing reconstruction of the narrative of its historiography.' Fontes Artis Musicae '... the individual contributions are well wrought and together they make for a very worthwhile book.' Victorian Studies
