Biographical Note

Irving Fine, American composer, teacher, and conductor, was born in Boston, Massachusetts, on December 3, 1914. He received both his bachelor's (1937) and his master's (1938) degrees from Harvard University, where he studied composition with Walter Piston and Edward Burlingame Hill. He studied composition, as well, with Nadia Boulanger in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and Paris, France, and pursued studies in choral conducting with A. T. Davison and orchestral conducting with Serge Koussevitzky. From 1939 until 1950, Fine taught at Harvard, after 1947 as assistant professor of music. Subsequently, until the end of his life, he was professor of music at Brandeis University, also serving there as chairman of the School of Creative Arts. In addition, during the summers from 1946 to 1957, Fine was on the composition faculty at the Berkshire Music Center at Tanglewood.

Irving Fine was the recipient of numerous awards, including two Guggenheim Fellowships and a Fulbright Research Fellowship for France. In addition to his composing and teaching, he wrote articles and reviews for Modern Music, Notes, Musical America, and the New York Times. He died of a heart attack in Boston on August 23, 1962.

Scope and Content Note

The bulk of the materials in the collection are musical scores and sketches representing virtually the entire musical output of the composer. Among these materials are manuscripts for Alice in Wonderland (1942); The Hour Glass (1949), a song cycle for unaccompanied chorus set to texts by Ben Jonson; Mutability, a song cycle for contralto and piano originally commissioned by the Creative Concerts Guild, Inc., in 1952; Serious Song (1955), for string orchestra; and Symphony 1962, which was performed by the Boston Symphony Orchestra shortly before Fine's death in 1962.

In addition to music manuscripts, the collection contains an assortment of photographs, clippings, programs, scrapbooks and correspondence from 20th century musicians such as Leonard Bernstein, Aaron Copland, Lukas Foss, Alberto Ginastera, Ned Rorem, William Schuman and others.

Forty unpublished tapes presented to the Library by Verna Fine in 1969 feature recordings of concert, broadcast, and private performances of the composer's works. Fine himself is the piano accompanist for a number of songs, including the cycles Mutability and Childhood Fables for Grownups. These materials are in the custody of the Motion Picture, Broadcast and Recorded Sound Division of the Library of Congress. An inventory is included on file.
