+This site makes available about two hundred items from the rich holdings of printed music in the State Library of Tasmania's Heritage Collections. They range from the 1840s to the 1930s and include pieces for piano and other instruments, brass band arrangements and songs of all sorts - popular, sacred, patriotic, and even songs written to encourage tourists to come to Tasmania. Most of the pieces are Tasmanian, but they also include a few written and published in Melbourne and Sydney. More than a third of them are by one composer, the extraordinary Frederick Augustus Packer (1839-1902) teacher, Hobart City Organist and the dominant figure in nineteenth-century Tasmanian musical life.</td>
