I have set up a mailing list for the field of medieval Dominican studies, which anyone with related interests is welcome to join: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/MEDIEVAL-DOMINICANS
I am the Course Director of the MA Ritual Chant and Song. For more information about the MA Ritual Chant and Song, check out this video, this webpage, or feel free to get in touch with me directly (Eleanor.Giraud -at- ul.ie).
I joined the Irish World Academy of Music and Dance, University of Limerick, in August 2016 as the Course Director for the MA in Ritual Chant and Song. Alongside teaching on the MA, I research medieval chant books of the Dominican Order. I began this project, studying the nature of the chant and liturgy of early Dominican Order, at Lincoln College Oxford, where I held the Lord Crewe Junior Research Fellow in Music 2014-2016.
I gained my Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge, graduating in February 2014. My thesis examined the role of the music notator within the process of producing manuscripts: who would have been notating music, how notators worked together (if at all), and what relation they had with other trades involved in book production, e.g. text scribes. I focussed on manuscripts made for the Dominican convent in Paris in the thirteenth century.
In 2009-2010 I studied for an M.Phil. in Musicology at the University of Cambridge, which I gained with distinction. My dissertation examined the polyphonic music contained within the Codex Calixtinus, a twelfth-century manuscript dedicated to the cult of St James in Santiago de Compostela.
I completed my B.Mus. at the University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne in 2009. As part of the degree, I spent a year at the Université de Haute Bretagne in France. I was supervised by Dr. Magnus Williamson and it was with him that I gained an appetite for working with manuscripts. I graduated with upper first class honours and the David Barlow Memorial Prize.
