At ACA, part of our mission is making all our archival works available. Every year, we digitize and publish hundreds of works from legacy composers. The works below, in our Archival Listings, are mostly items held in physical archives (many at the Special Collections in Performing Arts (SCPA) at the University of Maryland). 

Please submit a request for any archival work that interests you, and we will do our best to make it available. 

With thousands of works in our archives and back-catalog - and more historical works found every day - we also rely on donations and volunteer efforts to support greater efforts. All the archival or manuscript pieces in our catalog can be brought to historic or modernized editions more quickly with your support.
