Divertissement for a Kerryman

Original and photocopied typescripts, letters, reviews and programmes. Includes an analysis of Divertissement (A day in the life of “Paddy the Kerryman” ) for flute, oboe, clarinet, horn, bassoon and piano by Derek Bell. In the analysis Bell tells us that ‘the main tune, a reel, was kindly contributed by Dr Paddy Moloney, founder of The Chieftains’ (June 1997); letters from Ian Crowther, Crowthers of Canterbury, Woodwind and Brass Specialists, Canterbury, Kent, England to Derek Bell about the première of Divertissement which will be performed at the ‘Canterbury Festival concert on Friday 24 October’ (6 Aug 1997). A subsequent letter from Crowther encloses a ‘copy of the tape of the concert … and also a review’ (5 Nov 1997); programme of the première of Divertissement performed by the Crowther Wind Quintet (24 Oct 1997); and review of the composition in the Kentish gazette (30 Oct 1997).
