Thea Musgrave: Correspondence: Academia

Correspondence regarding Musgrave's academic appointments, honorary degrees, the commissioning of a portrait (the one by Victoria Crowe), speaking engagements, and fellowships (notably, her two Guggenheim fellowships), as well as research enquiries into Musgrave and her compositions of an academic nature (including for encyclopedias).
