This conference explores both the poetry and the music of Ivor Gurney.
Papers are invited on either aspect of his work, and we particularly
welcome papers which look at both his writing and his composition. We are
also interested in papers which look at the context within which Gurney was
writing -- music history, literary history, medical history, his literary
and musical circles or influences, etc.

The conference will be held in Cambridge, England, 9 to 10 September 2007.
We hope to include a concert of Gurney's songs by tenor Andrew Kennedy.
