- Title:
- Sir Lennox Berkeley: Faldon Park (sketch material), Op. 100
- Scope & Content:
-
Various undated sketches, in pencil and in ink, for Acts I and II. Some material is accompanied by an identifying slip (not in Berkeley's hand), and some passages are identified by Berkeley at the head of a manuscript page, but most pages are not, although the libretto provides a means of identification. Ordered as found. Some pages include pasted-down corrections.
The sketches are enclosed with a bifolium entitled (not in Berkeley's hand): 'Sketches for Faldon Park (maybe some Nelson sketches have crept in)'. On f. 157r is sketch material for a vocal piece beginning "Clere Venus qui erres par les cieux" [Sonnet, Labé, op. 102].
The sketches are preceded by Berkeley's autograph note ('Faldon Park / LB') listing four numbered composition action points.
