Title:

Frederick Delius: Scores (as bound by the Delius Trust)

Scope & Content:

Bound volumes (1-49) formerly held by the Delius Trust, as arranged and catalogued by Rachel Lowe: A Catalogue of the Music Archive of the Delius Trust (1974). The sequence of the volumes (some of which are divided into two parts, designated A and/or B), and Lowe's original foliation, is retained.

The present description of the manuscripts is indebted to the scholarship of both Rachel Lowe and Robert Threlfall, whose publications should be consulted in conjunction with the present catalogue. For ease of cross-reference, Threlfall's classification of Delius's works (Catalogue, 1977, pp. 10-11) is noted in the description of each manuscript.

Twelve volumes are currently held by the Delius Trust: 5B, 18B, 21, 22, 41, 43, 44, 45, 46. 47, 48B, and 49.
