Abstract

Report of the Music Library Association's 65th Annual meeting, held at the Seattle Westin, February 5-1 1, 1996. The pre-conference Conservation Workshop, offered by Ted Honea of Sibley Library was invaluable and informative. Gerard Schwarz, Music Director of the Seattle Symphony Orchestra since 1983, described his indebtedness to music libraries, and how he devises programmes for the SSO. Other topics included: Brahmsiana; Managing Difficult People; Managing Technology; Teaching the 'Net; the Selling of Seattle Through Song; and Handel's Relationship with his Publishers. And, the Eastman School/Sibley Library has recently received the Alexander Courage Collection (source materials, sketches, and movie scores, replete with timings and reel information).
