Papers of Ernest Llewellyn, 1911-2004

14.55 metres (51 boxes, 4 cartons, 1 small carton, 1 volume)
Abstract Or Scope
The papers are a record of the career, in part, of one of Australia's finest musicians. They document Ernest Llewellyn's career as a solo violinist, chamber music player, orchestral leader, conductor, teacher and music administrator. There are, unfortunately, no papers from the Melbourne and Sydney periods of his career. However, Llewellyn's Canberra appointments are well documented and the papers would be a good source for the study of the history of music in Canberra. Invitations to be a juror at the prestigious Tchaikovsky competition in Moscow, to advise on teaching methods in China, and to conduct and advise on the establishment of a conservatorium in Ottawa, show his high international standing.
