Our speakers this year include Judith McGuinness, former Abbot Placid scholar, who will bring us up to date on the last of the Santos Salvado letters written following his return to Spain in 1868. Our new 2026 Scholar, Paul Watt, who is the Adjunct Professor of Music at Adelaide University, will speak about the history of music at New Norcia, while Allegra Giagu, our current Scholar and whom many of you will remember from her wonderful performances with Fr Robert Nixon, will give us her paper on Salvado's music.
