Juilliard School Library Music Manuscripts by Jane Gottlieb

This stunning publication unearths the priceless scores at the heart of The Juilliard School’s unparalleled collection that has supported the education of performing artists for more than a century.

Delve into the amazing stories behind these unique manuscripts, sketches, engravers proofs and first editions by Bach, Brahms, Schumann and others. The accompanying texts are written by scholars and performers who convey the manuscripts' importance to music scholarship and the history of the performing arts.
