Correspondence and Manuscript
Music Excerpts, circa
1941-1946
|
|
Correspondence primarily between Arthur Mendel, editor at Associated Music
Publishers (AMP), and composer Igor Stravinsky from late 1941 to 1946. The
correspondence concerns corrections and questions about Stravinsky's works that
AMP was preparing for publication. These works include Danses Concertantes, Sonata for Two
Pianos, Scènes de Ballet, and Circus Polka. The letters are brief and contain
manuscript music examples that Stravinsky and Mendel used to illustrate errors and
corrections. Stravinsky frequently chose to answer Mendel's questions on his
letter, sending it back rather than replying with a separate letter. The
collection also contains an errata list for Danses
Concertantes and list of Stravinsky's published works. There is a small
quantity of letters to Ingolf Dahl, who proofread Danses
Concertantes. Additionally, there are letters to Vladimir Golschmann and
Dimitri Mitropoulos, who were rehearsing Danses
Concertantes and the orchestral arrangement of Circus Polka, respectively, concerning minor changes to their scores.
Most of the correspondence is in French. |
