Series 3 contains the recording activities of Technichord Records. This
includes a notebook kept by Greenough of acetate discs recorded for Dr.
Harold Spivacke of the Library of Congress. Dating from 1937, this
notebook contains meticulous notations of speeds, styli, pre-amplifier
settings, main amplifier settings, and degrees of equalization used by
Greenough to make his recordings. This series also contains worksheets
of performance recordings. The programs Greenough kept of the
performances he recorded are one of the highlights in this series.
Spanning the years from 1938 to 1969, these programs are from the
Harvard Glee Club, including one with Nadia Boulanger as guest
conductor, organ recitals of E. Power Biggs at Harvard University, a
1949 dinner honoring Serge Koussevitzky, Berkshire Music Center
programs, and The Juilliard School of Music programs. |
