Music of Cornwall
Cornwall has been perceived as historically Celtic, though Celtic-derived musical traditions had been moribund for some time before being revived during a late-20th-century roots revival.
==History==
In medieval Cornwall there are records of performances of ‘Miracle Plays’ in the Cornish language, with considerable musical involvement. Also (as frequently mentioned in the Launceston borough accounts) minstrels were hired to play for saints day celebrations. The richest families (including Arundell, Bodrugan, Bottreaux, Grenville, and Edgcumbe) retained their own minstrels, and many others employed minstrels on a casual basis. There were vigorous traditions of morris dancing, mumming, guising, and social dance.〔Hays, R. & McGee, C.; Joyce, S. & Newlyn, E. eds. (1999) ''Records of Early English Drama; Dorset & Cornwall'' Toronto: U.P.〕
Then followed a long period of contention which included the Cornish Rebellion of 1497, the 1549 Prayer Book Rebellion, the Persecution of Recusants, the Poor Laws, and the English Civil War and Commonwealth (1642–1660). The consequences of these events disadvantaged many gentry who had previously employed their own minstrels or patronised itinerant performers. Over the same period in art music the use of modes was largely supplanted by use of major and minor keys. Altogether it was an extended cultural revolution, and it is unlikely that there were not musical casualties.〔O'Connor, M. J. (2005) '' Ilow Kernow; 3'' St Ervan: Lyngham House〕
