MA RITUAL CHANT AND SONG: SCHOLARSHIPS AVAILABLE
Irish World Academy of Music and Dance, University of Limerick

We are pleased to invite applications for a one-year MA in Ritual Chant and Song.  Western plainchant is the core repertoire studied, and the programme is associated with Glenstal Abbey, a local Benedictine monastery.  Students have the opportunity to learn chant with internationally renowned professional early music performers, and vocal study is contextualised by seminars in palaeography, liturgy, medieval history, ritual studies and ethnomusicology.  Students may choose to work towards a final performance, a final dissertation, or both.
