- Title
Music and Moral Management in the Nineteenth-Century English Lunatic AsylumRosemary Golding.
- Authors
Watt, Paul
- Abstract
Asylum records also show considerable numbers of residents attending chapel services, which had increased to two services on a Sunday at which music was played and hymns were sung, thus offering another avenue for musical enjoyment. The English lunatic asylum is the last place we would expect to see the staging of a ball in the nineteenth century. Golding has served the reader well by a thorough trawling of archives, scouring the accounts for monies received from commercializing asylum musicians.
