description
Print and manuscript scores, libretti, examples of mise en scène, programs, scene designs and other archival documents dating from the 17th through the 20th centuries, from Music Special Collections in the Harold B. Lee Library at Brigham Young University and the Fonds of the Théâtre de la Monnaie conserved at the Archives de la Ville de Bruxelles. A strength of the collection is late 18th and 19th century materials from the French and Italian repertories, including a large collection of copyists’ manuscripts for the Neapolitan operas of Giovanni Paisiello. Other noteworthy highlights include scores and orchestral parts for 18th-century French opéra comique.
