Conditions Governing Access

With the exception of the score from Volume 14 (which is not available) and the unreleased Volume 16, all recordings and scores have been digitized and are available online here

Access to original materials requires special permission from the Associate Director of Berklee Archives, as all material is extremely fragile. Patrons may view an item’s original container and/or carrier, but the original recordings are not available for playback. Additionally, many of the scores are fragile or in poor condition and require careful handling. Advance notice is required for access because materials are stored offsite. Contact Archives staff for further information.
