Musica Scotica

Musica Scotica Musica Scotica promotes the study and performance of Scottish music by producing scholarly editions, studies, performances, conferences and recordings.

Musica Scotica, founded by the late Dr Kenneth Elliott (1929–2011), is a series of scholarly editions, studies, conferences, performances and recordings of Scottish Music under the general editorship of Dr Gordon Munro. Each volume in the main series of editions contains historical and editorial introductions, facsimiles, music and a critical commentary. The series aims to serve both practical and

scholarly needs. Published in parallel with the main series is a series of volumes of miscellaneous pieces. In addition, Musica Scotica has also instituted a series of historical studies of Scottish music of all periods. Contributions from new editors are welcome and will be considered by the Editorial Board. In recent years, Musica Scotica has begun to sponsor performances of Scottish music, particularly contemporary music, and we propose to issue recordings of Scottish music in future. Musica Scotica also runs an annual conference on all aspects of Scottish Music, usually held on the last Saturday of April.
