Compositions and Working Papers.

  A collection of many hundreds of pages of manuscript material by this gifted female composer, focusing on four works.  Two of the works are present in finished form, one in full orchestral score.  The most interesting of these works, The Teraph, can be largely reconstructed from the vocal and orchestral parts.  At times she reaches out from the conventional, drawing on folk music, with echos of Wagner and Liszt.
