Music sources for Kurt Weill's Marie galante in the collection of the Weill-Lenya Research Center, 1934-[ongoing].

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/152675222

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.) Of particular importance in the collection of materials on Marie galante are the following: photocopies of the autograph full and vocal scores, reconstructed to be as complete as possible; photocopies of copyist's full score and parts; photocopy of full score edited by Lys Symonette; a few sketches; Luciano Berio's arrangement of Le grand Lustucru; the full score of a concert suite version assembled by Lys Symonette and Kim Kowalke; and recopied score and parts for several numbers, including the Tango-Habanera, later known as Youkali.

As a result of the success of his Broadway musical Lady in the dark in 1941, German-born composer Kurt Weill and his wife, the singing actress Lotte Lenya, were able to buy "Brook House," in Rockland County, New York, moving there during their sixth year in the United States.
