PRoMS at the Med-Ren in Barcelona, 21–25 July 2011

The annual Medieval and Renaissance Music conference took place in Barcelona this year, and we took this opportunity not only to enjoy the beautiful city and the outstanding hospitality of the organisers, Tess Knighton and Emilio Ros-Fabregas, at the Institut d’Estudis Catalans, but also to present PRoMS to a wider musicological audience. Thomas Schmidt-Beste gave a presentation on the project aims, with illustrations from two of the pilot manuscripts case studies – Brussels, Bibliothèque Royale, ms. 9126, and Hradec Králové, Muzeum Východních Čech, Knihovna, MS II A 7 (the ‘Speciálník’ Codex) – based on work by Mara Hofmann and Ian Rumbold. The late hour of the day and the warm weather notwithstanding, the feedback from the audience was most encouraging, with many offers of collaboration and assistance.
