| BOX 1-70; 74-81; 84-92; 95-105; 107 MAPCASE FOLDER 1-2 | Music, 1950s-1980s | ||||||||||||
| This series documents Pearl Bailey’s singing career through a variety of music materials, namely scores and parts used in performance. | |||||||||||||
| Organized as two subseries. | |||||||||||||
| Songs by Title, 1950s-1980s | |||||||||||||
| The largest subseries, Songs by Title contains manuscript and printed scores,
parts, lead sheets, lyric sheets, and other materials used for performance.
Arrangers are indicated where known, as are compositions by Pearl Bailey and
Louie Bellson. The collection includes a typed and handwritten listing of 98 titles designated as the "Pearl Bailey Library" (PBL). These titles were housed in manila envelopes with the PBL number and title written on the outside. The library is incomplete - 27 titles are missing from the group - and the purpose of the library is not clear. Most of the envelopes consisted of incomplete part sets. Items on this list were incorporated into the Songs by Title subseries and their respective PBL number added to the folder entry. The original list is located in Box 107 and is attached to this finding aid as Appendix A. Little of the music contains information regarding where or when it was performed. When such information is known, it is noted. |
