Internally, the book is generally clean noting only an ink mark on the title page for The Plates (possibly a production fault). There are also a couple of pages towards the rear of the book where the printing from the verso of the page shows through somewhat. The artist's signature on the front free endpaper is clear and bright. The dust jacket, which is now protected in a removable, clear cover (not shown), has rubbing to the corners, spine tips and edges with a number of tiny tears and minor chips and creasing along the top edge and one small tear along the bottom edge. The laid in invitation to Ayrton's exhibition is an added bonus.

1 lettre autographe signée 3 In-8 [1928] bon Lazare Saminsky regrette de n'avoir pu rencontrer Straram lors de son court passage à Paris. «J'ai été bien heureux d'entendre de vous que votre réponse à ma lettre d'hiver passé est positive, c'est à dire que vous voulez diriger ma 3ème symphonie. C'est pourquoi je m'ai permis d'écri…re à Universal Edition de vous envoyer la partition pour votre revue (à propos, elle dure 20 minutes, mais elle exige des bonnes répétitions comme vous verrez)». Il viendra à Paris pour assister aux répétitions. «Cela vous intéressera d'apprendre que j'ai juste fini un opéra-ballet dans deux tableaux "La Fille de Jehptée" [The Daughter of Jephthah, 1928] et j'aurai bien des choses agréables à faire ici et en Europe cette saison ci [.]».

Contact seller5-star sellerMoscow: N.p., 1892. Plate XII from a set of twenty loose black and white prints originally sold as a set in a portfolio, printed in Moscow in 1892. This untitled set of large, high quality photographic prints (each measures 25" X 18") commemorates some unidentified imperial autograph collection, with each print picturing a monta…ge of autographs in specific collecting fields. Subject matters represented include many of the classic areas of autograph collecting: scientists (several different), artists, musicians, actors, opera performers, ballet stars, writers and poets, statesmen and more. While the signed photographs (usually cartes-de-visite), letters and other documents depicted in each montage are international in scope, there tend to be more Russian (go figure!) and French persons. "Ballet et Opera" is a quaint heavy stock print consists of a montage showing nine cartes-de-visite or cabinet size photographs, six of them signed, one with a signed card and two alongside Autograph Notes Signed, of Virginia Zucchi, Sigrid Arnoldson, Libia Drog, Deycha-Sionitzky, Leopoldine Loscher, Marie Petipa, Luigia Cerale, Eugenie Mravine and Lydie Heiten. Most are head and shoulders portraits in opulent Victorian garb and headgear; full-length shots in tutus were not mandatory, and are present only on Loscher and Cerale. These images are casually splayed out atop what might be an artist's rendering of a ballet stage scene, with putti, a lyre, draped florals, etc. Very good. Minor soiling. Most attractive and with large, untrimmed margins.These pre-revolutionary prints from the heyday of the czars -- all in handsome, clean condition -- are seldom encountered in this country, and come direct from our contact. All signatures depicted on these images are, remember, photographic reproductions of their signatures -- not authentic original signatures.

Oblong folio (236 x 322 mm.). 2 pp. 206 measures of music notated on 20 hand-ruled staves in dark brown ink on both sides of a single leaf. Mostly on 3-stave braces, but also on 2- and 4-stave braces. With numerous corrections, deletions, and corrections; 2 entire measures canceled. Browned, but on good quality laid paper and in… very good condition overall. Attached at corners to thin window mat, at the foot of which is an inscription in an unknown 19th century hand in German identifying the manuscript as follows (in translation): "Original manuscript by Carl Maria von Weber. The present piece is the first draft of the chorus and ballet from the third act of Oberon. Thanks to its bouncy, exquisite melody, it became a favorite of the German people even before the opera's first performance, based solely on the piano-vocal score. The draft has English text because Weber composed Oberon, which was destined for London, with English text to get as close as possible to the spirit of the nation. This prompted him to a most serious study of the language in his final years. August 1847 [Signed with Initials] [? Etw] . Berlin." For an account of various manuscript sources of Oberon, see Jähns 306, p. 391. Oberon, to a libretto by James Robinson Planché after Christoph Martin Wieland's eponymous poem, was first performed in London at Covent Garden on 12 April 1826. "The première . was a great success, with lavish settings and spectacular scenic effects that impressed even Weber, and the opera remained popular throughout the season. . It contains some of Weber's most delightful music, which has assured the work a permanent, if peripheral, place in the repertory. . The brilliant overture opens atmospherically with Oberon's horn-call, which acts as a motif throughout the work. With the overwhelming success of his opera Der Freischütz in 1821 [Weber] became the leading exponent of German opera in the 1820s and an international celebrity. A seminal figure of the 19th century, he influenced composers as diverse as Marschner, Mendelssohn, Wagner, Meyerbeer, Berlioz, and Liszt." Paul Corneilson, Clive Brown, et al. in Grove Music Online.
