We are delighted to announce that The Great Vogue for the Guitar in Western Europe 1800-1840 (Woodbridge, Boydell and Brewer, 2023), edited by our members James Westbrook, Paul Sparks and Christopher Page, and in almost every way a Consortium book, was awarded a chitarra d’oro prize in the category ‘Musicology’ at the 2024 Convegno Internazionale di Chitarra held in Milan. One of the contributors, Jukka Savijoki (below) travelled to Milan to collect the award.
