About this work
Description
Chain's musical gifts were widely acknowledged. He played the piano to recital standard and also in chamber ensembles with friends. In his early days he seems to have contemplated a career in music (A.175). Towards the end of his life it gave him great pleasure to share performances with his son Benjamin. The folders below contain correspondence with musical friends, requests for sponsorship for individuals or institutions, invitations to give recitals, attend concerts, etc. There are many additional references to musical activities and interests in general correspondence passim.
