Claudio Spies (1925-2020) was an American
composer, conductor and educator of Chilean birth. He was known for his close,
multi-decade affiliation with Igor Stravinsky. The collection, which documents his
professional career, is divided into two series: manuscript and printed music, by Spies
and Stravinsky; and subject files, which include correspondence, interview notes,
clippings, publicity materials, financial and legal documents, and writings.

Provenance
In July of 1992, Claudio Spies began the process of donating his papers to the Library
of Congress. Over the next 21 years, he gave the Library his compositions and papers, in
addition to scores by Igor Stravinsky, with whom he collaborated until the Russian
composer’s death in 1971. The rest of the material arrived in June 2013 as a gift from
Spies. The list of Claudio Spies’ compositions contained in this collection should be
considered the most complete works catalog available for the composer. Some of these
titles have previously appeared in catalogs of his compositions, while other titles are
not known to have been published.
Accruals

Scope and Content Note
The papers of Claudio Spies (1925-2020) span the years 1923-2012, with the bulk of the
materials dating from 1957-1998. The papers are arranged in two series: Music and
Subject Files. The Music series contains approximately 104 compositions, with
approximately ninety-five by Spies and nine by Stravinsky. The majority of Spies’ works
are manuscript scores, while Stravinsky's consist primarily of photocopies with Spies’
annotations. Most scores are dated, with the majority falling between 1947 and 1979.
Spies' pieces include his first twelve-tone work
Five Psalms
; his self-proclaimed most complex vocal score,
Seven Sonnets
, housed in thirteen folders;
Bagatelle for Piano
, housed in ten folders;
Ave Atque Vale
, in eight folders; and
Due Epigrammi ed Una Iscrizione
, which incorporates a poem by the Renaissance master Michelangelo. Roughly a
third of Spies’ compositions include orchestral parts. Stravinsky’s scores include the
dance cantata
Les Noces
and two orchestrations inspired by Roman Catholicism:
Mass
and
Requiem Canticles
.
The Subject Files primarily comprise correspondence, musical notation, song text,
transcribed interviews, and program notes. Large segments of these files pertain to
Robert Craft and to a keynote speech that Spies gave in the German city of Saarbrücken.
Craft, whose friendship with Spies spanned several decades, is renowned for his intimate
working relationship with Igor Stravinsky. The keynote address that Spies delivered in
Germany was commissioned by the Saarland University of Music for a 1994 Schoenberg
conference, and was transcribed for the
Journal of the Arnold Schoenberg Institute
.
These files also include materials relating to Erich Alban Berg, the nephew of Austrian
composer Alban Berg, and Stephen Peles, who interviewed Spies for a
Perspectives of New Music
article, “A Conversation with Claudio Spies.” The amount of Stravinsky
correspondence is relatively small.
