Correspondence

 Series

Scope and Contents

This series contains general correspondence, sent both via post and via e-mail; the correspondence for 2000 and later years is chiefly in the form of e-mail messages. The original bundles of correspondence contained contracts and other information related to compositions and performances; these materials remain in this series. Programs for performances and copies of reviews not accompanied by correspondence were removed and are now in the Musical works series or the Programs, posters, clippings and notes series. Correspondence originally arranged by Moran with materials for individual works or performance is in the Musical works series.
