Barry Tuckwell Collection

Substantial collection of materials belonging to the eminent French horn player and conductor Barry Tuckwell. Tuckwell is widely recognized both as the foremost horn player of his generation and for extending the instrument's technical possibilities.
Among the Collection's contents are: printed (some pre-publication proofs) and manuscript scores, including works written for, dedicated to and edited or annotated by Tuckwell; sound recordings in various formats, commercial and non-commercial; correspondence with composers, conductors, other performers, instrument makers, administrators and others; diaries; documents related to the London Symphony Orchestra, in particular for the period when Tuckwell was its Chairman; concert programmes; posters; press clippings; photographs; inventories and trade catalogues. The concert programs in the collection span Tuckwell's career from the mid 1940s until his retirement as a performer. A large proportion feature performing groups with which Tuckwell was associated, such as the London Symphony Orchestra, the Tuckwell Wind Quintet and the Jones, Tuckwell and Langbein Trio. Tuckwell's international solo career is also fully documented.
