Record of career, in part, of one of Australia's finest musicians, Ernest Llewellyn. The papers include correspondence, personal documents, appointment books, invitations, cuttings, reports, programs dating back to the 1930s, and music scores with his markings and annotations. There are no papers from the Melbourne and Sydney periods of his career. However, his Queensland appointment with the State String Quartet, and his Canberra appointments, as Director of the Canberra School of Music, and as musical director and conductor of the Canberra Symphony Orchestra, are well documented. There are also papers from his year in America on the William Kapell Memorial Scholarship (1956), and from invitations as an 'honored guest' and later a juror at the International Tchaikovsky Competition, Moscow in 1974 and 1978. Additional papers received July 2001. Dates range from 1943-1998. Papers relate to Hephzibah Menuhin.
