The collection forms part of Series 10, which consists mainly of music manuscripts: non-autograph originals and photocopies of both non-autographs and autographs. It also includes rental materials and some arrangements by other composers. Briefly stated, all music materials for the works of Weill other than those offered for sale by publishers are included, whether in score or parts, as long as they present his music without fundamentally altering its character. (For more details on inclusion/exclusion, see the record for the whole series--"Music sources for the works of Kurt Weill ...," ID NYWS94-A2.) Materials on Where do we go from here? include the following: the complete copyist's short score (which includes Raksin's numbers); photocopies of the autograph vocal scores for Weill's numbers; and photocopies of copyist's vocal scores of Weill's numbers.
