      1. Sketch - 1 page of 6 page manuscript [6r-6v]

         Title	Sketch
         RefNo	BBM/untitled_piece_in_c_major_5/1/1
         Date	1923
         Description	A short sketch (seven bars) on a single bass clef line. It begins half way through the second bar of of the last system on 6r and finishes on the fifth bar of 6v. The date of 1921, which Britten has written at the top of 6v (circa 1933-34) can be challenged by the date of 1923 on most of the other pages in the volume. 1921 is also an unlikely date for the other piece on 6v.
