Orchestrations

Subseries consists of parts from dance band orchestrations used by Harry Culley during his time as conductor of the Royal York Orchestra (1929-1930) and as Music Director at the Royal Alexandra Theatre (1948-1955). Many of the parts are annotated for performance, and some files include manuscript parts copied by Harry Culley.

La bell au bois dormant / Claude Debussy

File consists of vocal sheet music, stamped "Bell Piano Warerooms, Toronto." Ida (Fernley) Culley demonstrated pianos in the warerooms of local piano retailers and manufacturers as a child. It is possible that this is one of the pieces that she played for customers.

Classical sheet music

Subseries consists of classical sheet music, predominantly performed by Harry and Ida "Claudette" Culley as part of their piano duo, the Black and White Spotters. With the exception of occasional pieces for solo instrument and piano; and published arrangements for two pianos, four hands, the sheet music is mainly for solo piano, with some manuscript second piano parts written out by Harry Culley. The sheet music includes annotations and alterations for performance, and most include precise timings. The Culley's performed regularly on radio shows from the 1930s to 1950s and would have to fill a set amount of time. These timings would have helped them select their repertoire for each show. The subseries also contains some orchestral parts, which were likely used by Harry Culley when he was conductor of the Royal York Orchestra (1929-1930) or Music Director at the Royal Alexandra Theatre (1948-1955). Subseries also includes vocal sheet music used by Ida (Fernley) Culley during her time demonstrating pianos in the warerooms of local piano retailers and manufacturers, and collections of etudes used by Harry Culley for lesson books as a child.
