this collection of music manuscripts. The collection consists primarily of full orchestral scores, duo piano parts, orchestral
parts, and supplementary material for the Concerto for two pianos and orchestra, op. 88a, by Max Bruch. Also some unrelated
transcriptions and arrangements. All materials are in manuscript. These materials were heavily altered and used for performance
between 1915 and 1917 by duo pianists Rose and Ottilie Sutro. Subsequently, they were collected by pianist Nathan Twining
from the auction of the effects of pianist Ottilie Sutro in Baltimore, MD, in 1971, and used in his reconstruction of the
piece. Also included are orchestral parts prepared by Twining for his recording of the Concerto with pianist Martin Berkofsky
and the London Symphony Orchestra released in 1974.
