BOX 5-7 |
Music, 1915-1967
|
|
This series contains both printed and manuscript items. The compositions by Farrar
are exclusively for voice with piano accompaniment; the majority date from the
late 1930s. During her tenure at the Metropolitan Opera, Farrar attracted large
numbers of young admirers, who were known as the "Gerryflappers." Many of the
original compositions which Farrar wrote in her retirement, such as "The Little
Christmas Donkey" and "The Easter Robin," were written for the children of these
admirers. Music arranged or translated by Farrar, including several vocal
arrangements of works by Rachmaninoff and Kreisler, is also included. |
