My second, short article on music and diplomacy in early modern Savoy came out today! Fantastical court ballets, dramatic stage accidents, people irreverently dancing to viols on city walls during a siegeโฆWhat more could one want from 17th-century diplomatic documents?!

A Stuart Musicianโs Conversion to Catholicism: Richard Dering and the Venerable English College, Rome
ABSTRACT. The English organist and composer Richard Dering (c.1580โ1630) is recognized today for his key role in the transmission of Italian musical styles
