Georges Lauweryns manuscript and printed music, 1899-1946

Abstract Or Scope

The Georges Lauweryns Manuscript and Printed Music consists of manuscript and printed music composed by Lauweryns, and printed music of other composers owned by Lauweryns. Most music by Lauweryns consists of songs for voice and piano or voice and orchestra. Also present are piano, chamber, orchestral, and ballet music. Manuscript music by Lauweryns is in several hands, including those of copyists and possibly the composer's autograph. Some manuscripts include performance annotations or printer's markings. Many bear stamps of the Société des auteurs, compositeurs et éditeurs de musique, or are accompanied by registration forms for the Société. Music by other composers consists of songs for voice and piano by Jules Massenet, and solo piano music, orchestral works, and operas in vocal score by several early 20th-century composers, many inscribed by the composer to Lauweryns.
