Temple Sheet Music Collections

Over the past few years, more and more university libraries have worked diligently to digitize some of their vast sheet music holdings. Old chestnuts are being revived by vocal groups on campus and farther afield, which is certainly a good thing. This sheet music collection from the Temple University Libraries brings together 850 pieces of music for consideration by the general public. Visitors can search the collection as they see fit. They will find that most of the music here is from the Gilded Age and earlier. There are a number of melodic tunes in here; visitors might do well to consider "Drifting Leaves" from 1905 or 1852's "Dreams of Home" as a way to get started on their journey. The site will be of great interest to musicologists and to anyone with an interest in the history of American popular song and musical heritage.
