25054I H Montagu Mansions W.1. 12 June1932. One page cr. 8vo fold marks faint foxing good condition. See Image. Text: "It is delightful to read that August Manns conductor - see Wiki is still remembered. I was born within sight of the Crystal Palace and can even remember the great fire on one Sunday afternoon when part of the 'Tropical End' was burned to the ground. Those Courts with the fine casts of statues of all periods taught me how to look at their originals in many places. I wonder what has become of the two of the Venus de Milo; one with a hidden wedge of wood on her back and the other without that wedge which was only discovered when she was take to pieces & sent into the country for safety before the siege of Paris in 1869-70 It is not realised by the people who crowd orchestral concerts in these days that in the 'seventies there were very few - just the Philharmonic & the Crystal Palace until Richler Presumably Johann Baptist Isidor Richter came to London. At the Crystal Palace we heard many novelties and became familiar with much which is now old-fashioned. Sarasati played Tchaichovsky's sic Violin Concerto there during the life of the composer and we heard scraps of 'Parsifal'. How that choice murdered the Grail Music! Yours sincerely A.E.F. Horniman". Note: Many letters in the same auction lot as this were addressed to Marion Scott Marion Margaret Scott 16 July 1877 – 24 December 1953 was an English violinist musicologist writer music critic editor composer and poet. Perhaps she is the "Madam" of this letter. I [H?] Montagu Mansions, W.1., 12 June,1932. unknown
