odes, one for the Anniversary of the Accession of George IV in 

1821 and the other on the Installation of the Earl of Derby in 

Oxford in 1853; the present letter is presumably referring to the 

first ode. The addressee is most probably Thomas D'Almaine (d.

George Goulding "who was probably in business before 1784."

A Seat for the Premiere of Mascagni's Rantzau

Fernando 1860-1925. Autograph letter signed to Rocco Pagliara, 

music librarian at the conservatory of music at San Pietro a 

Majella in Naples. 2 pages of a bifolium. Octavo. Dated Florence, 

January 31, 1897. In Italian (with translation). I have made a 

reservation for an orchestra seat on your behalf at the premiere 

of Rantzau (Mascagni). With autograph envelope. Slightly worn; 


"In the 1890s and the early 1900s [de Lucia's] fame was 

increasingly linked with the impassioned tenor heroes of the new 

verismo school... Mascagni gratefully chose him also for the 

premières of his I Rantzau (1892, Florence), Silvano (1895, 

Milan) and Iris (1898, Rome)... Between 1902 and 1922 he made 

some 400 records. This extensive legacy (much of it reissued on 

CD) is valuable because it represents an otherwise vanished 

style. De Lucia's technique and vocal control are astonishing, as 

are also his free, spontaneous and vivid treatment of musical text 

and ornament and his variety of nuance and tone-colour." Grove

states are not suitable for a concert. He says that he cannot accept

London. He plans to return in April of 1864 for the season in 

order to make up for what I could not fulfill this time. He wishes 

Benedict all the best and great success with his concert, and says 

I would like to ask you to compose another scene for me when

I can perform it for the English concert goers. Slightly worn and

A Bohemian baritone, "Pisek's voice was rich and expressive over 

a range of two octaves, and his use of the mezza voce and falsetto 

was particularly admired. Some critics considered his singing 

mannered and his acting artificial and exaggerated. Berlioz 

(Mémoires), however, had a very high opinion of his talents, and 

considered him 'perhaps the greatest dramatic singer of the age'. 

He was also a talented pianist and a composer of songs." Grove

January 26, 1916. In German, with translation. Since Herr 

Klimmerborn, the only ones who sent me best wishes for the New 

Year were the City Orchestra... I was particularly happy to read 

the good things you had to say about my successor. My 

correspondence with him is active and friendly and I believe that 

he sees right through the elements that you describe and maybe 

does not approach people with quite the same level of trust as I, 

unfortunately, did. Subjects like Anders - Schweinefleisch - who 

owe me their position and everything and then behave 

abominably. Steinbach writes that he is still recuperating from his 

illness and has had to cancel all of his concerts of the season due 

to a relapse of the heart condition that started in Cologne; he 

died approximately eight months after this letter was written. 

(20663) $150. 

"As a conductor, besides performing Brahms, Steinbach did a 

great deal to promote the instrumental works of J.S. Bach and of 

contemporary composers, in particular Max Reger. As a 

composer, Steinbach was less important. His output includes 

lieder, piano pieces and chamber music; music for the closing 

scene of Goethe's Faust; and orchestral arrangements of German 

dances by Mozart." Grove online

469. TIPPETT, Sir Michael 1905-1998. Autograph letter 

signed and dated June 15, 1956. 1 p. Folio. To Otmar Reisel. 

Written from Tidebrook in Wadhurst, Sussex. In both English and 

German. With autograph envelope with Tippett's autograph 

signature and address to verso. The autograph you want will be at 

the bottom of this letter. There is only a sonata for Piano, which 

is rather difficult to play. That is, three movements are difficult 

and one is easy. The remainder of the letter is in German and 

informs his correspondent that the music is avialable from his 

German publisher, Schott, in Mainz. Very slightly worn; creased 

at folds; envelope slightly worn and soiled. (21006) $375. 

Tippett is, no doubt, referring to his Piano Sonata no.1, composed 

in 1936-8 and revised in 1942, in this letter. "[Tippett's] 

importance lies not only in his revitalizing contribution to the 

genres of symphony, concerto, opera, string quartet and sonata, 

but also in his awareness - displayed in his writings as well as his 

compositional practice - of the complexities of the modern 

condition and the artistís role in relation to this." Grove online

signature for him on a separate slip of paper 76 x 127 mm.

compare [the piano sonatas 2 and 3] with those being written by 

Beethoven, who was finishing his Op. 101 in A major in the same 

November, is absurd. But if we except Beethoven as an isolated 

phenomenon, Weber's achievement as a keyboard composer 

beside that of his contemporaries is extraordinary. He towers 

over them, and in his anticipation of the new worlds of feeling to 

be explored by Schumann, Chopin and Mendelssohn in their 

piano works, he need fear no comparisons at all. The finale of 

No. 3 has the gentle Romanticism and indeed much of the 

technique of a Schmann Novelette..." Warrack: Carl Maria von

First Edition. Jähns 58. Hoboken 15, 272. "Of the many cantata 

and cantata-like pieces that Weber composed, four have special 

significance for his career. A major work from his time in 

Stuttgart is Der erste Ton (1808, revised 1810), based on a poem 

by Rochlitz about God's creation of sound after he had created

the world. For the most part Weber conceived the piece as a 

spoken declamation accompanied by orchestral music that 

characterizes the different images in the poem (chaos, creation, 

order, the sounds of nature etc.); singing voices enter only at the 

end in a closing choral fugue that Weber revised under Vogler's 

supervision in 1810." Grove online. Weber dedicated this piece to 

his friend and fellow composer Franz Danzi (1763-1826).

whole nature of Oberon, then, both in its subject and in the

rather than vocal; yet the freshness and charm of his melodies is 

if anything at its peak in the disjointed numbers which comprise 

it." Warrack: Carl Maria von Weber, p. 326.
