Dr. Estelle Murphy, Interim Co-Head

Department of Music, Maynooth University

Many of the tunes in Bunting’s collection have links to earlier collections and publications. In particular, Dr. Murphy explores her research into Matthew Dubourg (1703 – 67) Master of the State Music in Ireland, and virtuoso violinist, and his form of collecting Irish music in early, and mid-eighteenth century in Dublin and the influence on Bunting.
