Sibley now on to vocal music

Post by jfarrington »

For those of you not following our blog (http://digitalscores.wordpress.com/), I thought I might pass along the information that we have now completed digitizing the chamber music works for 3-9 players that were part of the NEH-funded project. We're taking a break from instrumental music for a while (we'll eventually make our way back to duos and keyboard music), and have started in on vocal music, specifically solo songs. We have started putting them up in the last few days, with lots more to follow.

Thanks! If you have the old Choudens edition of Benvenuto Cellini (or ANY of the Weber operas), that would be awesome ;)

We have probably almost a couple dozen Weber opera vocal scores from the 19th century, but they are in Rare Books, and those are not part of our current project. Similarly, our 1850 Choudens edition of the Berlioz work is in the vault, and our 1950 Choudens edition is of course not viable for digitizing. There will be some operas that we digitize as part of this project, eventually, and of course we've digitized dozens of them to date as well (see https://urresearch.rochester.edu/filter ... ctionId=63).
