PETER SCULTHORPE (b. 1929)<br />

It’s Blossom Time, Words and Music by<br />

P.J. Sculthorpe, Op. 4 No. 3 c. 1943<br />

PAPERS OF PETER SCULTHORPE (MANUSCRIPTS)<br />

J is for Juvenilia<br />

Juvenilia is defined as literary, musical or artistic works produced<br />

by authors, artists or composers in their youth. This manuscript<br />

<strong>of</strong> a song by renowned <strong>Australia</strong>n composer Peter Sculthorpe was<br />

written when he was about 14 years old. He began composing<br />

from the age <strong>of</strong> seven, much to the dismay <strong>of</strong> his piano teacher,<br />

who preferred him to practice other people’s works rather than<br />

compose his own. Today, Sculthorpe has composed over 380<br />

works, including orchestral and chamber music.
