Like many composers, Gibbs was not very methodical in the use of opus numbers. Where known these are included after the title of the work. The letters “cr” after a year of publication indicates that the copyright of that work has reverted to Armstrong Gibbs’ successor, Jane Hill, 31, The Crescent, Colwall, Malvern, WR13 6QN.
