"Two manuscripts which had been missing for more than 100 years have been rediscovered in Tauranga.

The original music sheets were found in the library of the Bay of Plenty Symphonia.

The 1906 manuscripts feature handwritten and signed music from English composer Gustav Holst. Until now, what had become of these manuscripts was a mystery."

Given that the staff found them while tossing out photocopies of other scores, one hopes that other historically authentic material didn't get accidentally tossed out at other times.

It doesn't say what the music was from?

" What's this ? Sibelius Eighth Symphony - no such piece - in the skip with that" .
