J - 0 - /W Anglo-Irish Music in Cork 1750-1800 Audrey Robinson Thesis submitted to the National University of Ireland as part-fulfilment for the Degree of Master of Arts in Music at St. Patrick's College, Maynooth. Head of Department: Professor Gerard Gillen Music Department St. Patrick's College Maynooth Co. Kildare Supervisor: Dr. Barra Boydell August 1996 Table of Contents Table of Contents ii Preface iii Acknowledgements v Abbreviations vi Introduction 1 Chapter 1 Music Education 7 Chapter 2 Music Sellers and Instrument Makers 29 Chapter 3 3.1 Musical Societies 54 3.2 Music and Military Bands 69 Chapter 4 Concerts 92 Chapter 5 Theatre 119 Conclusion 152 Bibliography 153 Preface Music in Dublin in the eighteenth century has been a rather well researched topic and the subject of a number of books and articles. However, it is only when one tries to discover what life was like for the musicians who chose to live in the country that one realises how little research has been compiled and written on the subject. Therefore, the intention of this thesis was to examine the musical activity in Cork from 1750-1800, in order to establish a relatively accurate description of what life was really like for the musicians and members of the nobility living in Cork during that time. The primary source of information in the thesis is from the various Cork and Dublin newspapers. These include the earliest existing Cork newspaper, the Corke Journal, which dates from December 1753, The Cork Evening Post from 1758 and The New Cork Evening Post from 1791.

3500 a Short Story
A Short Story n 1662, James Ogilby traveled to England to take tea with the recently restored to the throne - King Charles II. James returned to Ireland as Master of The Revels with the permission of I¢ The King to raise 4500 pounds sterling to build Dublin’s first theatre of 1662. g e raised the money by asking the citizens of the day to support his vision to build Dublin, HIreland and the world a playhouse that they could be proud of. Smock Alley Theatre gave the world the plays of George Farquhar (The Recruiting Officer), Oliver Goldsmith (She Stoops To Conquer) and Richard Brinsley Sheridan (The Rivals). 800 people attended the theatre each night, seven days a week. Indeed there were queues down the street and up past Fishamble Street when the greatest actor of his generation, David Garrick played Hamlet in the very first production of Shakespeare’s classic play in Ireland. 0 years later we have done it again! We asked the citizens to help us to reinstate 350 this historic theatre for Dublin, Ireland and the world, and in February 2012 we opened the doors once again. Philanthropists and Government, small donations and large have enabled us to bring this extraordinary playhouse back to life. Although we aren’t allowed to get 800 people in per night we are looking forward to becoming Dublin’s newest (most comfortable) oldest theatre. We need your support for our work, which includes the recently established Smock Alley Players. Please join with us into the future: Make a philanthropic donation or become a Friend of Smock Alley Theatre-1662.

Research Guide for Archival Sources of Smock Alley Theatre, Dublin
Research Guide for Archival Sources of Smock Alley theatre, Dublin. October 2009 This research guide is intended to provide an accessible insight into the historical, theatrical and archival legacy of Smock Alley theatre, Dublin. It is designed as an aid for all readers and researchers who have an interest in theatre history and particularly those wishing to immerse themselves in the considerable theatrical legacy of Smock Alley theatre and it’s array of actors, actresses, directors, designers, its many scandals and stories, of what was and is a unique theatrical venue in the fulcrum of Dublin’s cultural heart. Founded in 1662 by John Ogilby, Smock Alley theatre and stage was home to many of the most famous and talented actors, writers and directors ever to work and produce in Ireland, England, Scotland and Wales, throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth century. Celebrated players included Peg Woffington, David Garrick, Colley Cibber, Spranger Barry and George Ann Bellamy. Renowned managers and designers such as John Ogilby, Thomas Sheridan, Louis De Val and Joseph Ashbury would help cement the place of Smock Alley theatre as a venue of immense theatrical quality where more than just a play was produced and performed but more of a captivating, wild and entertaining spectacle. The original playbills from seventeenth century productions at Smock Alley detail many and varied interval acts that often took place as often as between every act would feature singing, dancing, farce, tumbling, juggling and all manner of entertainment for the large public audience. Smock Alley was celebrated for its musical and operatic productions as well as its purely dramatic performances.
