     A majority of the sources listed were obtained from the dissertation

written by Robert Monroe which was obtained from Ann Arbor, Michigan.  This

was obtained through a computer search and inter-library loan.  Sources

that are dated after 1970, the date of the dissertation, were obtained from

other sources.  Some sources led to others as they were obtained from

bibliographies listed within articles. The listing of compositions was derived

from many sources including Monroe's dissertation, Band Music Notes and from the

bibliographies of other sources.  Hanson's main publisher was Carl Fischer,

Inc., although quite a few tunes are listed as either manuscript or lost.

The listing in the discography was obtained from the dissertation as well as

Carol Oja's American Music Recordings: A Discography of 20th-Century U.S.

Composers published by Koussevitzky Music Foundation, Inc., in 1982.
