Collection Summary
Collection Title
André Mangeot: Box 2 (1925-30)
Description
A miscellaneous collection of handbills and programmes for chamber music concerts given by the violinist André Mangeot at a range of English, Scottish and European venues between 1925 and 1926 and in 1930, held loosely and arranged as two of four folders within the second of 5 boxes of material comprising the André Mangeot collection.
Also included in this box is a folder of 27 undated programmes/handbills for performances by the same musician and a folder of press cuttings.
In the majority of cases, programmes relate to performances at which Mangeot appeared as part of the Music Society String Quartet (1925–26) or the International String Quartet (1930). Of those not given with these ensemble, some featured the Music Society Trio (with Kathleen Long, piano) and a number were given with the cellist Georges Pitsch.
The London programmes include a significant number for The Music Society performances, given at St. John's Institute, Westminster: this was an organization founded by Mangeot in 1920. The English provincial programmes include a number from the Informal Music Society of Cambridge.
The majority of these documents are handbills/single-sheet programmes. These are listed here alphabetically by venue, with English programmes, which are divided into London and provincial, followed by Scottish and then European ones.
