Description

Scope and Contents

The collection consists of 97 audio recordings from music concerts performanced at Taliesin West and Taliesin, Spring Green. The majority of the recordings are from the period after Wrights death, however, there are 12 recordings dated from 1950 to 1955. There are a few recordings of discussion groups sessions; these are likely recordings from the Movement participant's weekly philosophy group meetings held in tandem with Saturday Evening concerts.
