Music Special Collections consist of the New Music Performance Collection, the Contemporary Music Research Collection, and the Old Dominion University Department of Music Student Performance Recordings. Digitized materials from Music Special Collections can also be found here. The New Music Performance Collection is a cooperative project of the Virginia Tidewater Consortium libraries to serve music faculty members who incorporate new music in their teaching. The Contemporary Music Research Collection supports research leading to the performance of contemporary musical works. CDs, cassettes and reel tapes of student recitals and Music Department affiliated concerts are housed in the Music Special Collections Area of the Diehn Composers Room.
