Title:

English Music, Medieval Saints, and Midlands Alabasters in the Long Fifteenth Century (1380-1520): New collaborative modes of research and presentation

Project Outcomes:

This project involved collaboration with museums (Nottingham Castle Museum and Norwich Castle Museum), an SME (Internova), and a professional music ensemble (The Binchois Consort).

Key outcomes so far include professional concerts in Nottingham, Birmingham, London, and Trento involving projected visuals of alabasters alongside performance of music on the same themes; work with professional sculptor Sarah Danays on modern alabaster carving; close engagement with two museums currently undergoing redevelopment involving alabaster holdings; and liaison with Internova, a company concerned with web-based interfaces between charities, arts foundations, nature conservancy organisations, academic institutions.
