Great launch yesterday by Maurice Manning at the NUI of this year's ISA journal 'Sources and Legacies of the Decade of Centenaries'. Great to be reminded of some of Anne-Marie O'Farrell's instructions to the orchestra! Honoured to have our article described by Maurice Manning as the pièce de résistance of the issue(!) and agree that the Civil War Cantata deserves another performance...

Constance Markievicz died #0TD 1927.
Undoubtedly brave, charismatic and got shit done, for many decades she was the only revolutionary woman mentioned in history books. Of 5 statues of women in Dublin, 3 are of her! She's well-commemorated and the Wild Gees are about under-told stories. Thanks to #DecadeofCentenaries, huge work has been done to bring other revolutionary women to public attention 👏 We salute the Countess all the same
