This
project has resulted in the publication of 550 hitherto unavailable
symphonic scores in sixty volumes (and a thematic catalogue) by
Garland Publishing. The materials from this project form a valuable
archive of microfilms and photocopies of some 3,600 original sources
(scores and parts), both for those symphonies that were published
by Garland and for many others. As such, it is probably the largest
archive of 18th-century symphonies in the United States. It is available
at the Brook Center for use by scholars of the 18th-century symphony
as well as students and conductors for whom its resources are vital.
