T JOSEPH DYER needs no introduction in the field of chant
H studies. A native of Philadelphia, he taught for thirty-four
E years at the University of Massachusetts Boston where he
earned a reputation as a leading authority on a variety of sub-
I
N jects related to plainchant and medieval liturgy. His contri-
H butions to scholarship include an edition and over one-hun-
dred articles, encyclopaedia entries, and reviews on a wide
E
range of subjects including the offertory rite, monasticism,
R
psalmody, the practice of the Divine Office, singers, the
I
T topography of medieval Rome, and the history of medieval
A music theory. Also an organist, Dyer was named a Fellow of
N the Royal School of Church Music and for ten years chaired
C the Organ Library of the Boston chapter of the American
E Guild of Organists.
