There are 18 larger photos, programs, ephemera and tons of clippings in this 8.75" x 11" loose-leaf notebook scrapbook with a lyre on the cover. This was done as a school assignment and it is titled "Coral Music" and it is by Kitty Anne Wittich.

The Index includes: American Composers, Conductors, violinists, Famous Singers, Famous Choirs, Symphony orchestra, famous pianists, daily news, selections I have heard, artists, instruments, and miscellaneous

It appears to be from 1936 and some of the stars/acts of the them pictured inside include Ernestine Schumann-Heink, Yehudi Menuhim, Nathan, Milstein, Margaret Mickey, Lawrence Tibbett< John Charles Thomas, Reinald Werrenrath, Don Cassack's Russian Male Chorus, The Carrere Little Symphony, Dailies Frantz, Josef Hofmann, Myra Hess, G. Maillard Kesslere, Ballet Russe of Monte Carlo, etc.

There are programs from the Metropolitan Opera (2), The Great Walz, Reading Symphony Orchestra, Rajah Theater in Reading, and RCA Victor booklet on the Story of Opera,

The loose-leaf circular clips are broken, so most of the pages are loose or attached by one ring only. There is some emulsion wear to a couple of the photos and everything has two punch holes to the side. A terrific look at the music arts from the mid 1930s.
