BOX 1-21 Music, 1905-1980
Performance Library materials consist chiefly of compositions and arrangements by Les Paul and arrangements for him by others. Numbers following titles, if they appear, are original to Les Paul's personal music library and can be used to match scores and parts. Printed Sheet Music contains works written or recorded by Les Paul and Mary Ford, or performed by Les Paul under his radio alias, "Rhubard Red." Most are piano-vocal scores, but annotated sheet music, lead sheets, and sheet music inscribed to or from Les Paul are also present.
Organized as two subseries. Arranged alphabetically by title.
