The Sophie Hutchinson Drinker Papers are primarily related to her books Brahms and His Women's Choruses, and Music and Women: The Story of Women in Their Relation to Music. Types of materials include correspondence, research notes, songbooks, addresses, journal articles, newspaper clippings, transcripts of oral history interviews, and memorabilia. Of particular interest are the songbooks, or stimmenhefte, which the chorus women copied from Johannes Brahms' manuscripts. There are also 16 volumes of Drinker's notes for Music and Women on women and music around the world from prehistoric times to the 20th century.
