Tom Jones [collection] : a comic opera in three acts founded upon Fielding's novel / by Alex. M. Thompson and Robert Courtneidge ; lyrics by Chas. H. Taylor ; music by Edward German. 1907.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/15690464

Arranged in two groups: I. Vocal scores (5). II. Orchestra parts (14). Copy 1 of the vocal scores (all published by Chappell, London, 1907) is identified on the cover as the conductor's score and is heavily annotated. It also contains interpolated numbers in manuscript form, most notably the song "The Road to Yesterday" by Clare Kummer, arranged by Frank Saddler. Words for the song are lacking. Orchestra parts for this song also appear for oboe and cornet. All music for these two instruments is in manuscript form on Tams-Witmark paper. All other parts are published by Chappell, 1907. All vocal scores carry the composer's stamp. A list of the Apollo Theatre (London) cast will be found in the preliminary pages. Copies 1 and 2 of the vocal scores represent the Apollo Theatre performance, according to handwritten notes opposite the title pages.
