- Title:
- Frederick Delius (Boosey & Hawkes Accessions): Hassan (copyists' full score, formerly belonging to Basil Dean)
- Scope & Content:
-
Formerly owned by Basil Dean, this score was used for the first performance under his direction (20 September 1923, His Majesty's Theatre, London).
- Full score (black ink), in the hands of several copyists.
- English words.
- Originally bound in mauve cloth, by Goodwin and Tabb, Ltd., London (small square label on inside front cover).
- The score is paginated pp. 1-239, followed by 'March' (p. 240) and two deleted bars of full score (p. 241, the verso of which is blank).
- The main portion of the work is scored on 20-stave 340 x 270 mm. paper. However, Dean's production, which was more lavish than the first production (Darmstadt, also 1923), called for additional music. Consequently, the main portion of the score was supplemented by the hands of other copyists using a variety of other paper sizes. Threlfall (1986, p. 230) supplies full details, and has identified the hands of five copyists.
- Beecham's blue pencilling is evident at various points in the score.
