Professor Michael Talbot

Michael Talbot portrait


Michael Talbot retired from the Alsop Chair of Music at the University of Liverpool in 2003, but retains his connection to that university as an Emeritus Professor. He is a Fellow of the British Academy and a Corresponding Member of the Slovenian Academy of Arts and Sciences. He is known internationally for his publications, which are mainly on Italian music of the eighteenth century, focusing on Vivaldi and his Venetian and Italian contemporaries. Especially since 2010 he has turned his attention also to British and other European music in many genres. He is the sole author of fifteen books, many of which have been translated, and has edited or co-edited several more. Numerous articles by him have appeared in journals worldwide. He has co-edited the yearbook Studi vivaldiani since 2000 and for over fifty years has been active as an editor of eighteenth-century music and a translator of writings on music in several other languages..
