Materials in this series also document the use of "El Pendón Estrellado" and Arias's knowledge of Portuguese to aid in the creation of a Portuguese version of "The Star-Spangled Banner" entitled "O Pendão Estralado". This series is comprised of newspaper clippings, printed materials, handwritten notes, correspondence, and four compact discs. The compact discs were created by Arias's son, Roger Arias, and contain images of items in the collection and other items related to Clotilde's life, links to websites relating to Clotilde's music, and brief descriptions of some of the included images written by Roger.
