- Title:
- Benjamin Britten: 'The Turn of the Screw', op. 54 (full score, Act II)
- Scope & Content:
-
Partly autograph full score for Act II.
In common with the full score for Act I, Britten's score in pencil was inked-over, at the composer's request, by Imogen Holst, so that it could serve as a conducting score for the first performance of the music; see the note (1979) by Rosamund Strode on the inside front cover of Add MS 60603 (f. i).
