Papers of Gloria Kannenberg Coates (1938-), a native of Wausau, Wisconsin, and a composer of international note, primarily documenting her formative years in the United States, from 1946 to 1969. Included are incoming personal correspondence, photographs, and other materials from her high school and college years in Wisconsin and Illinois, as well as some documentation about theatrical and musical activities in those states as well as in Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and New York City. Her years in Louisiana are documented mainly through clippings and files on the Baton Rouge Little Theater and Louisiana State University. The latter includes additional clippings and memorabilia, as well as scripts, three original musical compositions, and a composition notebook. Documentation of her career in Germany, where she is best known, is limited, including only a commercially-produced disc of Music on Open Strings and String Quartets Nos. 1, 2, and 4 (1985); a cassette recording of Sinfonietta della Notte and Music on Open Strings; and posters for events that she produced, possibly as part of the German-American Contemporary Music Series in Munich, or at which her compositions were performed. Photographs include portraits and candid views of Coates and her family.
