Opera donation.

The article focuses on the donation of opera scores and orchestral sets from the New Zealand Opera Society to the National Library of New Zealand. The 350 vocal scores of 40 operas with orchestral performance materials for ten operas substantially increased the important music collection of the National Library. New Zealand Opera Society president Leslie Austin remarked on handing the donations to the National Library, stating that the Society was keen in making the collection more available and the best to way to make that happen is adding the opera scores and orchestral sets to the Cadence database of the National Library.
