For opus numbering adopted in this digital collection was derived from Tom's "Active Catalog of Music (BMI) Revised 1985."* There are earlier versions of his catalog, and one later version (1987) was also found. The 1985 catalog lists 51 works. The reason I used the 1985 rather than the 1987 version was to derive reasonable numbering for existing scores of works Tom left out of his 1987 catalog (45 works). I hope he is pleased that we have preserved those scores as well. After all, he still kept them. And we know he wants his music to be known. * BMI - Broadcast Music, Inc.
