Dr John Cunningham

I joined the then School of Music at Bangor in September 2011. My degrees are from University College Dublin (BMus, 2000; MA, 2001) and the University of Leeds (PhD, 2007). I am a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy, and a member of the editorial committees of the听Purcell Society听and of Musica Britannica.听

My research covers a broad spectrum of topics and periods, though with a main interlinking theme of music as cultural history. I have published on a range of topics looking at secular music in Britain and Ireland, c.1600鈥1900. My monograph on William Lawes was published by Boydell and Brewer in 2010. I am especially interested in understanding the creative process as well as the interrelationship of music and literature. I have been the contributing music editor for the works of Ben Jonson (CUP, 2014), Shakespeare (OUP, 2017, 2018) and Katherine Philips (OUP, forthcoming). I am also interested in modern popular music, especially its interconnections with visual culture through the music video and other media. Among my current projects, I am working on responses to and the performance of Shakespearean music in Britain in the long nineteenth century, and an exploration of musical censorship in modern popular culture.

I was Director of Teaching and Learning in the former School of Music (2012-18), Director of Research and Director of Undergraduate Studies (Music) in the School of Music and Media (2018-20). I was Director of Research, Impact and Engagement, Director of Undergraduate Studies, and Digital Ambassador at the School of Music, Drama and Performance (2020-21), and Head of the Dept of Music, Drama and Performance (2022-24).听

I am Head of the Dept of Arts, and Deputy Head of School.听听

  • Working with our company partner, Codi鈥檙 To, this project will engage with the local community in exploring what it means to be Welsh today, particularly post-Brexit and post-Covid. It will do so through the medium of opera, using Pontio as a centre point bringing together the participants in direct engagement with the community. Over the course of five months a group of local school children working with Codi鈥檙 To and a professional poet, composer and choreographer will write, rehearse and publicly perform a bilingual opera in miniature, on the theme 鈥榃ales today / Cymru heddiw鈥.

  • First performed in Dublin (1663) one of the most significant aspects of Philips鈥檚 Pompey was her addition of a song after each act, something unique in the period. Although, according to the playbook, the songs 鈥榳ere added only to lengthen the Play鈥 they have proved fertile ground for interpretation (e.g. Russell, 2010). However, little has been written about the songs as performed, and experienced, musical events. Lack of documentary evidence is problematic. Only one of the song settings heard on the Dublin stage appears to have survived. When the play was revived in London (early 1670s?) new settings were composed: several of these survive and can be used to shed light on the now lost music heard in Dublin. Drawing upon newly prepared performances of the Pompey songs, this paper will argue that the music in the play was carefully designed to help audiences navigate its central themes.

The conference will be held online this year, and will provide virtual spaces for discussion, music and networking.
