Soft cover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 72 pages. Published in 2005. Rare Milton Babbitt collectible item. A fine copy of the Souvenir Program of the Boston Symphony Orchestra 2004/2005 Season Souvenir Program, signed by Milton Babbitt. Pictorial softcovers, as issued. Without DJ, as issued. A rare signature by the late great American composer, obtained on the occasion of the world premiere performance of his "Concerti For Orchestra" by the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Commissioned by BSO, conducted by Music Director James Levine, with the composer in attendance on January 13, 2005. There is a brilliant and illuminating five-page Essay by musicologist Robert Kirzinger - written in consultation with the composer - on the piece and Milton Babbitt's place in contemporary music, if he may deservedly say so himself, accompanied with illustrations. Plus, a lovely group portrait of Babbitt with James Levine and fellow greats Elliott Carter, Charles Wuorinen, and Leon Kirchner, some of whose works were also commissioned and first performed by BSO. A great memento/souvenir of a magnificent historic performance. An absolute "must-have" collectible, not just memorabilia, item for Milton Babbitt collectors. This copy of the Souvenir Program is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed and inscribed in black ink-pen on the Program Schedule page by Milton Babbitt. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. The recipient, who is named, attended the performance, is a lifelong BSO patron, and cannot be named here at his request. As far as we know, this is the only such signed and inscribed copy of this historic program available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Milton Babbitt did NOT do public signings. He signed for private individuals only. A very rare signed copy thus. One of the greatest composers of the 20th century and our time. A fine copy. Signed by Author.

Two manuscript leaves. Two manuscript leaves. Milton Glaser, American artist and graphic designer (b.1929 - d.2020) is perhaps best known for his "I Love New York" logo, a Bob Dylan poster, and the "DC Bullet" logo used by DC Comics. He co-founded 'New York Magazine,' and was founder and president of Push Pin Studios. He won numerous awards, and his artwork is in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the Victoria and Albert Museum and many others. Alvin Tresselt (b.1916 - d.2000) was a prolific author of children's books. His book, 'White Snow, Bright Snow,' illustrated by Roger Duvoisin, was awarded the 1948 Caldecott Medal. Two quarto pages on unlined airmail stock paper (circa 25 lines), Rome, Italy, May 29, [circa 1957?], to "Dear Alvin," begins: "As you have undoubtedly heard the 'littlest elephant' made it- I just got the news in this mornings mail- I am very excited about the whole idea, but how everything will be done at long range remains a mystery- I expect to be back about Nov. 25th a short week before our deadline- In her note Jean Fowler suggests a 50,50 royalty breakdown- I know we've never discussed it and how now may be a sticky time to bring it up, but I felt this is slightly inequitable in terms of the amount of time I have to invest during the next few months- Write me what you think about this[he continues with some personal and travel details] Sincerely, [signed] Milton." Followed by an original ink sketch by Milton Glaser, measuring circa 4 1/2 by 3 inches, depicting an elephant, wearing a bib, seated on an ornately decorated table, slurping spaghetti through his trunk. The letter is lightly creased, with small cresed tear, and small chip at tip of one (blank) corner (not affecting any text or the illustration). - ALS, one quarto page (six lines) on "Postale Aereo" paper, Rome, Italy, June 8, [circa 1957?], to "Dear Alvin," states: "I yield to your eighteen books, established name and several awards- Congratulations on your new daughter. In the same mail this morning we heard our New York apartment was burglarized- Wait 'til next year- Sincerely [signed] Milton." Addressed on verso, in Glaser's ink holograph, to Alvin Tresselt (c/o Parents Magazine). Some light tears and creasing from storage but nothing bad; overall a near fine letter with a wonderful association.
