Paul Sacher Foundation, Music archive and research center in Basel, Switzerland.
The Paul Sacher Foundation holds manuscripts, letters, and recordings from composers of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries within a dedicated research facility.
Founded in 1973 by Swiss conductor Paul Sacher, the foundation acquired the Stravinsky estate in 1983, followed by collections from Anton Webern and Bruno Maderna.
The foundation maintains a collection of musical works, documents, and artifacts that represent major developments in contemporary classical music composition and performance.
Researchers and musicians can access extensive archival materials, including original manuscripts and correspondence, through scheduled appointments at the Basel location.
The foundation publishes a biannual newsletter and makes its annual bulletin Mitteilungen fully accessible through its website for global research purposes.
