The purpose of this reseach guide is to serve as a quick reference to the life and works of Cleveland composer Marcel Dick (1898-1991). It is fitting that there be such a resource at Case Western Reserve Univerity, which houses Dick's papers. There is a fine finding aid for this collection, which has been used in the preparation of this document. But a finding aid only deals with the material which it describes, and it is organized by physical location rather than content. There is a paucity of reference information about Dick (no biography, no entries in either edition of New Grove or New Grove American), so the assembly of information in one place is particularly desirable. This is purely a work of bibliographic assembly as a starting point for interested musicologists.
