FRANK MARSHALL FUND
Dating from the time that Frank Marshall was director of the Academy, there
are many documents that link the figure of this maestro to numerous personalities
from the musical and cultural world of our country and overseas. Correspondence
with Manuel de Falla, Joaquin Turina, Emil von Sauer, Rodrigo, Casals, Millet,
Rubinstein, Mompou, Cortot, and many others, convert this fund into a rich mosaic
of information of a whole period. We can also find a great quantity of concert
programmes, many of which are linked to the Association of Musical Culture of
which Marshall was the president in Barcelona; and press
clippings of the musical
activity of that century with a long list of names especially related to the
world of the piano, but also to other interpretative areas such as Victoria
de Los Angeles or the Ars Musicae ensemble. By his side, his wife Teresa Cabarrus,
promoter of many cultural initiatives which arose through the Academy such as
the poetry recitals or the chamber theater that completed the cultural life
of the Academy. We also find an important number of original
manuscripts as the Sevillian Symphony by Joaquin Turina, or some songs by Mompou,
a cadence by Malats or the Catalonia Suite by Marshall himself.
