Grawemeyer Award for Music Composition

this is a valuable resource... * American Reference Books Annual, March 2008 * Little (Dwight Anderson Music Library, U. of Louisville) and Graepel (technical services librarian, International U., Bremen, Germany and formerly Dwight Anderson Music Library, U. of Louisville) provide a catalog of submissions from 1985 to 2005 for the Grawemeyer Award for Music Composition, given by the U. of Louisville, and where the competition submissions are housed. Many of the submissions are unpublished. Submissions are listed alphabetically with information on composer, title, format, length, instrumentation, publication information, physical description, commissioning information, and call number. Entries are also listed by year. Some materials in the early years of the award were returned to the composers, and so are not listed. * Reference and Research Book News, May 2007 * This is a well-produced volume in this series....Given the specialized content, it is best suited to academic and large public libraries. * Fontes Artis Musicae *
