After marrying Mr. H.H.A. Beach, Amy Beach moved to Back Bay East.  You can visit her home at 28 Commonwealth on the Boston Women’s Heritage Trail.  Beach’s home is Number Two on this map.

For more information about the history of this house, including its construction, owners and rental purposes, please visit the 28 Commonwealth page provided by the website dedicated to the genealogies of the Back Bay Houses.

Beach’s “Gaelic Symphony” was influenced by the rich Irish heritage of the nation, and most certainly in Boston, home to both Beach and a significant Irish community.
