This book outlines the career of one of the most distinguished figures in Irish musical life in the first half of the twentieth century a Bavarian organist, Aloys Fleischmann, Sr., whose son would later become Professor of Music in UCC. Fleischmann senior came to international attention through his work with the North Cathedral Choir in Cork, which was regarded as one of the finest of its kind. He was a prolific composer who wrote nearly 400 works, and he was a highly respected teacher whose students included Sean O Riada.An abundance of documentation concerning Fleischmanns career has survived, which makes it possible to present an authoritative account of his richly varied professional life and to illuminate the cultural and social context in which he worked. His music is assessed by Seamas de Barra, with an annotated catalogue of the compositions.

I bought this book as a gift for my friend who has a passion for Irish music. She loved it! The background on Aloys Fleischmann and his influence on music made for an enlightening read. The book feels like a journey through both music and history.

Exceptional Insight into Irish Music
I really enjoyed reading about Aloys Fleischmann's life and his contributions to music in Ireland. This book gives incredible insight into the immigrant experience and the blending of cultures. It’s a must-read for anyone who loves music and history!

Interesting but a Bit Slow
The story of Aloys Fleischmann is interesting, but I found some parts dragging a bit. The historical context is well done, but I wished it had a bit more about his actual music. Still, it's worth checking out if you're into Irish music.

A Unique Musical Journey
I bought this book about Aloys Fleischmann for my dad, who's a musician and loves Irish culture. The way his immigrant experience is tied into the music of Ireland is fascinating. It's well-researched and engaging, making it a great read for anyone interested in music history.

A Bit Disappointed
While I appreciate the subject matter, I felt the writing could have been more engaging. The historical details are solid, but I was expecting more personal stories from Fleischmann himself. It’s not bad, just didn’t wow me.
