What Choirs Also Sang: Aspects of Provincial Music Publishing in Late-nineteenth-century England
This chapter examines choral music and aspects of provincial music publishing in the North of England (mostly east of the Pennines) in the late nineteenth century. It shows how local publishers sustained a thriving culture of mostly amateur music-making during the period. After providing an overview of the music trade, the chapter considers growth areas in music publishing in the region during the period and looks at music publishers and their markets. It also discusses the remarkable growth of the music publishing industry in nineteenth-century London and the influence of Novello on choral music publishing in nineteenth-century England.
