{"value"=>"<p>This series holds scores by Otto Luening, his father Eugene, and by Otto Luening's students and colleagues. The bulk of the series is comprised of scores for over 300 Luening compositions. They include published and unpublished sketches, completed manuscripts, full scores, and parts, both published and unpublished. They date from Luening's earliest compositional efforts in 1906 to his final compositional effort in 1996 (an unfinished work for guitar and flute). Eugene Luening's scores, written for various orchestrations, span much of his life and include many educational pieces. The scores of Luening's students and colleagues contain a mixture of manuscript and published scores, many with notes or dedications to Luening. Composers featured include Ernst Bacon, Henry Cowell, Chou Wen-Chung, David Diamond, Lou Harrison, Quincy Porter, Roger Reynolds, Joan Tower, Joelle Wallach, and Frank Wigglesworth.</p>"}
