Related Materials
The Library's collections contain a large number of works by Sitsky that reflect his varied activities as a writer, editor, composer and collector. These works are all described on the Library's online catalogue.
Additional Sitsky correspondence appears in the papers of Rex Hobcroft (MS 8019), James Penberthy (MS 9748) and Patrick Thomas (MS 8341), and a number of his original scores are in the records of the Australian Musical Association (MS 7996).
Sitsky has also been the subject of an oral history interview at the Library, and biographical information is available via the Newspaper and Microform Reading Room and the Ozlife online database.
Arrangement
The collection has largely been left in the order imposed by Sitsky, with each successive consignment arranged into correspondence and music, and added to the collection as a separate addition. The collection has been artificially separated in the Guide into two streams, i.e. Folios (largely music manuscripts) and Boxes (largely correspondence). This occasionally results in a confused numbering of items (such as item numbers in the 1983 addition alternating between Box 26 and Folios 12-28).
Collection Retrieval Advice
Please note: each class in this collection has a separate box number sequence (i.e. there are multiple Box 1's). Please cite the relevant Class number as well as the Box number when requesting retrieval of material from the collection.

Biographical Note
Larry Sitsky AO, FAHA, is an Australian composer, pianist and music educator and scholar. He was born in Tientsin, China, in 1934 to Russian-Jewish parents. The family moved to Australia in 1951, settling in Sydney. He studied at the NSW State Conservatorium of Music, and after graduating in 1955, he continued his piano studies with Winifred Burston and in 1959 won a scholarship to the San Francisco Conservatory, where he studied with Egon Petri for two years.
After completing his studies in America Sitsky returned to Australia, taking up positions at the Queensland Conservatorium of Music and the University of Queensland. A grant from the Myer Foundation in 1965 enabled him to conduct research into the music of Ferruccio Busoni, on whom he has written extensively. From 1966 he has held various posts at the Canberra School of Music, Australian National University, including Head of Keyboard Studies and Head of the Department of Composition, and is currently an Emeritus Professor.
Sitsky has composed across numerous genres including opera, theatre, orchestral music, chamber music, solo and vocal music, and his works have been commissioned by many leading Australian and international bodies. His research has been supported by a number of Australian Research Council Grants and has focused on the music of Busoni, Rubinstein, Music of the twentieth century avant-garde, the repressed Russian avant-garde and 20th century Australian piano music. Sitsky's recording projects have focused on contemporary Australian composers, especially Roy Agnew. His own works are included in numerous anthologies and collections released on labels including ABC Classics, Tall Poppies and Jade CDs.
