The collection contains an oversize scrapbook assembled by William Rush Dunton, Jr., from 1912 to 1936 about Baltimore musical ensembles that he participated in or followed, including the Doctors’ Orchestra of the Medical and Chirurgical Faculty of Maryland, the Johns Hopkins Orchestra, the Clifton Orchestra, the Florestan Club, and the Haydn Symphony Orchestra. Materials include concert programs, postcards announcing rehearsals and events, and press clippings. Some handwritten correspondence from Edwin Litchfield Turnbull is also included. Several complete issues of The Musical Enthusiast from 1918 to 1920 contain information about musical life in Baltimore during the period. The scrapbook contains additional clippings related to Dunton’s interests in music and medicine, particularly regarding innovative uses of music as therapy. Also included in the collection is a manuscript by Dunton about the history of the Doctors’ Orchestra and his involvement with it.
