Note from the editor: I had the great pleasure of attending the conference last year, and delivering a paper, and as you can see above, I will be doing so again this year. It was in every way an excellent experience; the talks were all quite interesting, and followed up by very fruitful discussions, and I was able to meet and speak with a number of lovely people. The liturgical ceremonies at the nearby church of Ss Peter and Paul were done at the highest possible level, full Pontifical rites accompanied by absolutely superb music by the great Lassus Scholars. (sample below). If you are able to make it to Cork to attend, you will certainly not be disappointed.
