↑ "Orgelconcerten: Bernard van den Sigtenhorst Meyer" (in Dutch). Nederlandse Publieke Omroep. Archived from the original on January 26, 2014. Retrieved January 26, 2014. However, the claim that he destroyed all his works from the early 1910s, made at the Orgelconcerten page, is not quite, anyway, true; the substantial list of manuscripts at NMI (see external links, below) contains e.g. an autograph of a "Strijkkwartet/17-2 1911" - presumably(?) the string quartet mentioned. At least one song ("Avant que tu l'en ailles/Pâle étoile du matin, / Paul Verlaine. / Musique de / Bernh. Meyer / 2 sept. 1912" survives from this period, and some works dated 1915; however his "Op.1" is attached to "Van de Bloemen" of 1917.
