Title

Letter from Ormond Professor Bernard Heinze to Percy Grainger, 25 September 1936, and accompanying photograph of the Grainger Museum, University of Melbourne.

Description

In this letter, Heinze shares an image of the Grainger Museum at the completion of its first phase, with Percy Grainger. Grainger had participated in early design of the Museum, but was obliged to leave the project with the local team of architects, when he returned to his American home base. Interestingly, Heinze called the museum the "Rose Grainger Museum" in this letter, referring to Grainger's original intentions for the museum to be a memorial to his mother.
