Scope and Content
From the Collection:
The Lawrence Welk Sheet Music Collection includes single sheet music titles and a number of music books that either feature Lawrence Welk or members of his musical family on the cover or were composed and published by them. The vast majority of the titles are from the 1930s through 1950s. A photograph of Lawrence Welk is featured on many of the cover and often the phrase ‘Featured by Lawrence Welk and his Champagne Orchestra’ is printed on the cover also. The date given in the box/folder listing is the copyright date of the music and not necessarily the date the particular sheet music was printed.
The collection has been organized alphabetically by title together with the copyright date. For some titles there are more than one copy. The composer and lyricist have not been included in the content listing, except when Welk or Myron Floren are credited as composer. Lawrence Welk is listed as a composer for Bubble in the Wine, Every State Has Answered the Call (1942) and I Send You These Roses. Myron Floren is the composer for Floréna Polka, Skating Waltz in Swing, and Strikes and Spares. Floren is also credited as the arranger for several other titles. There are a number of books of compilations of music and are noted in the contents listing as ‘(book).’
