{"value"=>"<p>The Scores series is subdivided into three sub-series. In addition to the works composed by Weisgall, there are sub-series for works arranged or edited by Weisgall and works by other composers. The works by other composers are three published scores inscribed to him by their composers, Dominick Argento and George Rochberg, and two scores by Roger Sessions used by Weisgall to conduct from. Since Weisgall’s manuscripts have been given to the Library of Congress (see folder 774 for a complete list), nearly all of the scores are reproductions, copies or published material but many of these have been corrected and annotated by the composer. Reflecting Weisgall’s reputation as a composer of opera, nine of his twelve completed works in the genre are represented by full or vocal scores. Two musical projects contained in this series give insight into his compositional process and have substantial holograph material. The first of these, composed for a television documentary, <span class=\"title\">Of heaven and earth</span>, which later served as source material for his series of vocal and chamber works called Graven images. The other, with a working title of <span class=\"title\">Synagogue service</span>, occupied Weisgall during the last decade of his life, some sections of which were incorporated into his Evening liturgies. Dates appearing in brackets are drawn from the list of Weisgall’s works appearing in Bruce Saylor and James Cassaro: '<span class=\"title\">Weisgall, Hugo</span>', <span class=\"title\">The New Grove Dictionary of Music Online</span> ed. L. Macy (Accessed 13 June 2003), [http://grovemusic.com] when available and from information provided in published editions of works not specifically listed in <span class=\"title\">Grove</span>. These are included to give composition dates of the work and not the actual dates of the materials in the folder.</p> <div class=\"arrangement\"> <p>The scores are arranged alphabetically by title.</p></div>"}
