Daisy Gibbs is a PhD student at the International Centre for Music Studies, Newcastle University. She completed her BA in Music at the Queen's College, Oxford in 2014. Her interest is in the historical background to manuscript production in sixteenth-century England, and how music travelled between different social and geographical contexts. This research focusses on music addressed to the Virgin Mary, which continued to be copied by amateurs for decades after it was no longer used in the official liturgy. She is also working on an edition of votive antiphons by Robert Fayrfax for the series Early English Church Music.
