The
Galpin Society
Activities and Benefits of Membership
"The Society has a worldwide membership and is open to all, of whatever
nationality or country of residence. Institutions may enrol as members and
enjoy all rights of representation.
The Annual Journal, published at the end of the subscription year, contains
articles, reviews, notes and queries on all aspects of musical instruments.
A Research Grant is offered to members, in anticipation of an article suitable
for inclusion in the Journal.
The Galpin
Society Newsletter is issued to members, usually three times a year. It
publicises future activities, reports on recent activities, lists new
publications, announces organological conferences and other meetings,
and carries requests for information.
The Society
organises from time to time symposia and other functions. Visits are organised
to instrument collections worldwide: recent visits have been made to Paris,
Brussels, Hamburg, The Hague, Lisbon, Leipzig, Vienna, Berlin, Stockholm,
Munich and Nuremberg, Basel, Paris, Budapest, Brussels, Moscow and Leningrad,
Boston, and Rome.
The Annual
General Meeting is held in the U.K. in the Summer...."
