Letter from Professor Aloys Fleischmann to Dr. Seamus Fitzgerald (15 Sept. 1950)

Extract from Concert Programme of Cork Orchestral Society (13 Jan 1955)

In 2010 Cork celebrates the centenary of the birth of Aloys Fleischmann (1910-1992), the prominent Irish composer, conductor, scholar, campaigner, organiser, professor of music at University College Cork, and Freeman of the City of Cork.

The Fleischmann letter from 1950 (2pp) concerns sponsorship for the next year's Cork Orchestral Society programme of concerts and events. The extract from the Concert Programme contains a list of officials and members of the Orchestral Society including Chairman Aloys Fleischmann. (Both items are part of the Seamus Fitzgerald Papers at Cork City and County Archives, Ref. PR6)
