{"value"=>"<p>This series holds clipping files, correspondence and concert programs. The clippings, which cover Fitelberg's career from 1927 until shortly after his death, are from European and American newspapers advertising and reviewing performances of Fitelberg's music, and publicizing his honors and prizes. Clippings dating from after Fitelberg's death were collected by his widow, Tamara.</p> <p>The small quantity of correspondence includes letters from the American Academy of Arts and Letters and the Pennsylvania College for Women announcing Fitelberg's honors; a grant application to the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation filled out by Fitelberg but never submitted; letters from Artur Rodzinski and Margaret Carson; and publicity material including biographies and composition lists. The correspondence also holds letters to and from Tamara Fitelberg after her husband's death.</p> <p>The concert programs are from European and American events and venues, including several ISCM and German music festivals, the Brooklyn Academy of Music, and the award ceremony for Fitelberg's grant from the American Academy of Arts and Letters.</p>"}
