Scope and content

This fonds contains the original musical scores and arrangements, and related teaching material, programs, posters and recital material from multiple generations of the Fleming family, primarily those by Arthur Evelyn Fleming (1864-1922), Robert James Berkeley Fleming (1921 – 1976), William Arthur Fleming (1933-2016), and Robert’s son Berkeley Fleming. Georgina Gunn Fleming, Robert’s wife Margaret Pound, Robert may have been the most well-known as a composer, pianist, organist, choirmaster and teacher; but William (“Bill”), a teacher-librarian who taught in Regina throughout his career, was also an acclaimed singer and choirmaster, and studied at the University of Saskatchewan under Murray Adaskin, and Frances James Adaskin. The fonds contains musical works by others in a variety of musical genres; as well as family correspondence, photographs, and memorabilia.
