Collaboration with the Music Library of the University of the Arts Bern

Wednesday, August 10, 2016

RISM Switzerland starts in late July 2016 to catalog the collection of the Bernese composer Adolf Reichel (1816-1896) that was considered lost until 2013. The collection was donated to the Music Library of the University of the Arts in Bern by his great-grandson Helmuth Reichel.

The cataloging of the Adolf Reichel collection is part of the project Repertory of 19th-century Swiss composers that aims to fill gaps in the field of Swiss music documentation.
