Joseph Vella Bondin

Initially trained as a bass singer, Joseph Vella Bondin’s musicological interests concentrate mainly on Maltese music about which he has written widely. His history of music in Malta is the only one available, with the first volume, Il-Mużika ta’ Malta sal-Aħħar tas-Seklu Tmintax, awarded the National Book Council 2001 Prize (Research Category). He is a contributor to the Second Edition of The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians and the New York-based Repértoire International de Littérature Musicale (1995-2002). His modern edition of Girolamo Abos's Stabat Mater (1750) was published, together with his landmark study of the composer, by AR-Editions in the USA (2003). With John Azzopardi and Franco Bruni, he has written The Nani Composers (2007). Since 2001, he has been music consultant to the APS Bank, helping it to produce its much-praised annual flagship concerts and its series of CDs featuring works by Maltese composers.
