Koussevitzky Music Foundation, 1942-1978
|
|
The Koussevitzky Music Foundation (KMF) was created by Serge Koussevitzky in
May 1942, in memory of his wife Natalie, for the purpose of stimulating the
growth of musical culture by commissioning new works and supporting the
development of musical talent through varied activities. It should be made
clear that the papers contained in this subseries are not those of the
corporate entity, rather they belonged to Olga Koussevitzky in her role as
president of the Koussevitzky Music Foundation. They span from the creation of
the foundation to Olga's death in 1978. The papers are divided into five
subseries. The Administrative Materials subseries contains papers relating to
the creation of the foundation, its daily operation, and administration of its
goals and objectives. Materials by and about composers who received commissions
or who were being considered for them are found in the Composers/Artists
subseries which also contains items relating to a few other individuals in the
performing arts fields. The Subject Files subseries includes materials related
to organizations, individuals, and topics that were associated with the
foundation. The Financial Papers subseries contains KMF financial and legal
materials. The Miscellaneous Correspondence subseries contains inquiries mostly
from organizations regarding the foundation. The Scrapbooks contain clippings,
programs and promotional materials documenting the activities of the KMF. |
|
Arranged in six subseries: Administrative Materials, Composers/Artists, Subject
Files, Financial Papers, Miscellaneous Correspondence, and Scrapbooks. |
