Jocelyn Chang and Michael Leese Music Collection 1990-2005

http://rave.ohiolink.edu/archives/ead/OClU0058

Besides papers and music manuscripts, there are some large posters for musical events and photographs. There is a large number of digital and analog recordings and videos in every format. Besides the career-oriented things, there are personal things like correspondence, a very small sampling of business records, a plethora of realia (especially harp-related), many handmade things and unusual textiles, etc., other artifacts that bear directly on both Leese and Chang's careers. They believed in barter and so there are art objects and a collection of harp objects and other small ephemeral items.
