Music, Dance, and Drama in Early Modern English Schools is the first book to systematically analyze the role that the performing arts played in English schools after the Reformation. Although the material record is riddled with gaps, Amanda Eubanks Winkler sheds light on the subject through an innovative methodology that combines rigorous archival research with phenomenological and performance studies approaches. She organizes her study around a series of performance-based questions that demonstrate how the schoolroom intersected with the church, the court, the domicile, the concert room, and the professional theater, which allows her to provide fresh perspectives on well-known canonical operas performed by children, as well as lesser-known works. Eubanks Winkler also interrogates the notion that performance is ephemeral, as she considers how scores and playtexts serve as a conduit between past and present, and demonstrates the ways in which pedagogical performance is passed down through embodied praxis.

Amanda Eubanks Winkler is Associate Professor of Music History and Cultures at Syracuse University. Her publications include the book O Let Us Howle Some Heavy Note (2006); two editions of Restoration-era theater music; and Beyond Boundaries (2017), an edited collection with Linda Austern and Candace Bailey. Since 2017, she has been the Co-Investigator with Richard Schoch on Performing Restoration Shakespeare, a research project funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, UK.

Introduction. Minding the gaps; 1. Situating pedagogical performance; 2. Performing piety; 3. Performing prestige; 4. Performing accomplishment; 5. Performing vice; 6. Performing the professional; 7. Performing the past: the specter of the schoolroom.
