Nice idea. I don't suppose we know what classical pieces are contained in Bosworth's Musical Classics? The photo of Swarb holding the thing is too indistinct to make out the contents. I recall she told an interviewer once that the only piece of sheet music she ever bought was Russ Conway's 'Side Saddle' (!) but I suspect this is much more serious fare.
