THE SCORE-BOOKS OF CHRIST CHURCH CATHEDRAL DUBLIN A Catalogue

Eamonn O'Keeffe (Dublin, Ireland)*

Die Sammlung von Musikmanuskripten in der Christ Church von Dublin (Irland) umfaßt

33 Partituren des 18. und 19. Jahrhunderts. Diese Sparten enthalten Anthems und Ser

vices vom frühen 17. bis zur Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts und dokumentieren damit ein

Repertoire, das von den bekannten Komponisten wie Henry Purcell und William Boyce bis zu den Irischen Musikern wie Ralph Roseingrave, Sir John Stevenson und Richard

Woodward Jr. reicht. Vorgelegt werden sowohl eine Auflistung des Inhalts der Partitu

ren als auch biographische Anmerkungen zu den Komponisten und Musikern, die mit

der Kathedrale in Verbindung standen.

La collection de manuscrits musicaux de Christ Church à Dublin comprend trente-trois

livres de musique en partition, qui datent des 18e et 19e siècles. Ils contiennent des

"anthems" et services du début de 17e siècle jusqu'au milieu du 19e. Ceci documente

un répertoire qui s'étend de compositeurs biens connnus, tels que Henry Purcell et Wil

liam Boyce, à des musiciens régionaux irlandais, tels que Ralph Roseingrave, Sir John

Stevenson, et Richard Woodward Jr. L'auteur fait le dépouillement et l'index de chaque recueil en partition, ainsi que des notes biographiques sur les compositeurs et musiciens

ayant eu des rapports avec le cathédrale.

The manuscript sources of Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin, now held in the

Representative Church Body Library, consist of various part-, score-, loft-, and

organ books. In their catalogue of holdings the Representative Church Body Library lists their manuscript holdings from Christ Church Cathedral as follows: Score-books 33 volumes, Organ-books 24 volumes; Part-books 62 volumes; Old Loft-books 7 volumes; and New Loft-books 5 volumes. In Irish Cathedral Music,1 Grindle has described these as being, "undoubtedly the finest collection of part-, score-, and organ-books in the country." In an inventory of the music held by Christ Church Cathedral compiled in 1846, there is a record of thirty-four

*Eamonn O'Keeffe is a music teacher, church organist, and secretary of the Irish RILM commit tee. He has investigated the sources at Christ Church Cathedral in the course of graduate study at

University College, Dublin.

THE SCORE-BOOKS OF CHRIST CHURCH CATHEDRAL DUBLIN 43

score-books being in existence. Only thirty-three of these are still extant, al

though I have also catalogued an unbound manuscript that may be part of score-book number thirty-four. The score-books—which I catalogued as part of

my MA thesis2—date from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and contain anthems and services by various seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth century composers. From studying the music contained in these score-books it is evident that the music performed in Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin was that of the standard repertoire as represented by composers such as John Blow, Henry Purcell, and William Boyce. Alongside this standard repertoire, music by Irish and

Anglo-Irish composers such as Ralph Roseingrave, Sir John Stevenson, and Richard Woodward (Jr.) was also performed. These Irish and Anglo-Irish com

posers were often employed by the cathedral as organists or choirmasters. The score-books were probably compiled and bound over a period of time from

the mid-eighteenth to the early nineteenth century. They were certainly bound no later than 1844 when an index of anthems and services was compiled. This index lists the contents of all printed and manuscript score-books containing such music

by composer and composition. The score-books were probably compiled by copying music already in existence. It is likely that the music was copied from individual part-books, or from music sources not now in existence. This is evidenced from a number of facts; the manuscripts show signs of a number of different scribes having copied the music within each score-book, pages being re-numbered on binding, individual manuscripts bound to keep the original num

bering intact, and the dates on the score-books covering a wide period of time from 1746-1814.

The different copyists of the score-books are hard to identify exactly—evi dence of a number of hands used can be seen on examining the writing. The only hands that can be identified with any certainty are those of John Matthews—who is recorded as a copyist for the cathedral in a number of the scores as well as

in the chapter acts and proctor's accounts—and Sir Robert Prescott Stewart. Others who may have worked on the score-books are Nicholas Saunderson,

Charles Taylor, John Mason, Richard Woodward (Sr.), and Thomas Matthews who were vicars-choral in Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin in the eighteenth century, Langrishe Doyle organist, and a John Gray all of who have been recorded in the proctor's accounts as being paid for writing church music. (For further information see section on employees of the cathedral.) Most likely the main

copyists along with John Matthews were Charles Taylor, John Mason, and Thomas Matthews. Examples of manuscripts in the hand of John Matthews can be

found in score-books numbers eighteen and nineteen, and in Marsh's Library, where a copy of Messiah in his hand is held.3 Examples of Sir Robert Prescott

Stewart's writing can be seen in score-books numbers eighteen and nineteen.

CARTER, Charles Thomas (b. Dublin c. 1740, d. London 12 October 1804)

Irish composer and organist. Thomas Carter, as he was known, was born in

Dublin sometime around the year 1740. (Some sources give the date as 1735, but

the later date is now taken as the more correct.) According to John O'Keeffe in

his Recollections (1826), Carter "was brought up in the choir of Christ Church

Cathedral." He was organist of Werburgh Street Church (1761-69). Again, there

seems to be some confusion over this date with some sources giving the date of

his appointment as 1751. He moved to London (1769) to establish himself as a

theatrical composer but was unsuccessful with this venture. Carter also applied for the position of organist to Saint George's, Windsor but was turned down. His




output includes The Birthday (1787) a musical pastoral, songs, keyboard and other instrumental music. He is sometimes confused with another Thomas Carter (b. Dublin May 1769, d. London 8 November 1800).

pieces.

of the Children and organist of Westminster Abbey in the same year. Croft took the Oxford D.Mus. (1713) and was a founder member of The Academy of Ancient Music.
