{"value"=>"<p>The bulk of this series is composed of Anderson's interviews and phone conversations, and performances of music by Charles Griffes. It also holds radio and television broadcasts.</p> <p>The most significant documentation here is the series of recorded conversations between Donna Anderson and Anna Marguerite Griffes, dating from 1969 to 1983. These are supplemented by further telephone conversations with A.M. Griffes and other members of the Griffes family, as well as with scholars such as Edward Maisel and Oliver Daniel; publishing officials from G. Schirmer and Alfred Knopf; and musicians such as James Tocco. Recordings with multiple names do not imply conference calls; rather, Anderson would record multiple conversations on a single tape. Other recordings include a radio interview with Anderson; and further interviews with the Griffes family or descendants.</p> <p>The performances include all-Griffes concerts or festivals dating from 1964 to 1995, as well as recordings of particular pieces, or excerpts of them. These include <span class=\"title\">The Kairn of Koridwen</span>, <span class=\"title\">The White Peacock</span>, <span class=\"title\">Symphonische Phantasie</span> (in different arrangements), and <span class=\"title\">Salut Au Monde</span>, as well as two complete recitals of Griffes piano music by Ada Fischer and Alwin Bär.</p> <p>The broadcasts include an episode of Ada Fischer's Piano Time show, and programs on WQXR, WNCN, and National Public Radio devoted to Griffes. There is a single television program from CBS Camera Three titled <span class=\"title\">Charles Griffes: An American Original</span>, for which Anderson acted as consultant.</p>"}
