16-4192Genève: Edition Ad. Henn 1917. . Oblong 4to. 19.5 x 27.3 cm. 2 8pp. Original wraps. . Signed at Morges Switzerland and dated 5 Juillet 1917 and inscribed .The poet and playwright René Morax founded his Théâtre du Jorat near Mézières Switzerland in 1903. Made entirely of wood so as to be integrated into the barns of the surrounding countryside it was described this way in an early account: “A theater decidedly unlike any other. A sort of vast chalet a kind of huge barn smelling of resin dried hay fresh fruit and on days when there was a performance Sunday clothes but retaining the rustic dignity of a shrine. A large stage descending in broad steps toward the orchestra pit …â€The theater was closed for several years during the Great War and Morax conceived a drama on the subject of King David to reopen it in 1921. When he turned to his wealthy friend Werner Reinhart who incidentally had recently funded the creation of Stravinsky’s Soldier’s Tale telling him that he was taking inspiration from Hindu theater for this work his patron offered to lend rare Hindu drums in addition to financial assistance. The text is drawn from the Hebrew Bible I and II Samuel I Kings in addition to the Huguenot Psalter which includes poetry by Clément Marot. The poet’s brother Jean Morax set to work designing costumes and sets. After several more established composers turned him down René on the advice of Stravinsky and the distinguished conductor Ernest Ansermet chose the then unknown twenty-eight year old Arthur Honegger. “When Swiss poet Rene Morax 1873-1963 was looking for a composer for his new King David libretto Stravinsky recommended the twenty-nine-year-old Arthur Honegger a composer who just six years later creating the film score for Abel Gance’s Napoleon would reveal himself as a master of music’s ability to translate epics into sweeping evocative sound. In 1921 right on the cusp of his first successes Honegger wrote the David score in a flush of creative energy.â€. Provenance from the estate of René Morax.

1962293971Hollywood 1962. framed. very good. Fine content T.L.S. 4to 1 page Hollywood California December 12th 1962 to singer Jerry McLain attempting to give him musical advice without hurting his feelings in full: "I would be certainly glad yo give you advice but never hearing you singing and not knowing how far you are in the knowledge of works in general their spirit and technique I am in difficulty if not in impossibility to help you. The transposition of the Shakespearean songs in a higher or lower key is a ruin of my instrumentation and the piano reduction of them is not for a concert performance only for the study of the music." Placed into a white matte with a black background with two openings - whereby the letter is actually floated while the second opening accommodates a photograph by Weegie of the composer leaning against a mirror that gives the illusion of a double exposure and set into a black acrylic frame to 21.5" x 18.5".

Stravinsky dirigiert Stravinsky - auf 22 CDs dokumentiert diese Edition zum Sonderpreis ein in der Musikgeschichte einmaliges Ereignis: eine umfassende authentische Interpretation der eigenen Werke durch einen Komponisten selbst. So kann diese Edition ein Schlüssel zum Verstehen von Igor Strawinskys musikalischem Schaffen werden. Die frühesten Aufnahmen stammen aus den dreißiger Jahren die letzten Einspielungen wurden da Stravinsky selbst nicht mehr dazu in der Lage war unter seiner Aufsicht von Robert Craft dirigiert der Jahrzehnte mit ihm musikalisch zusammengearbeitet hatte. Um das Komponisten-Porträt auch im Bereich Klaviermusik und Kammermusik abzurunden wurde die Edition zusätzlich mit Einspielungen anderer renommierter Künstler ergänzt. Die 22CD-Box enthält ein Booklet mit einem dreisprachigen Einführungstext und sämtlichen Produktionsangaben. Igor Fyodorovich Stravinsky 17 June O.S. 5 June 1882 6 April 1971 was a Russian composer pianist and conductor later of French from 1934 and American from 1945 citizenship. He is widely considered one of the most important and influential composers of the 20th century. Stravinsky's compositional career was notable for its stylistic diversity. He first achieved international fame with three ballets commissioned by the impresario Sergei Diaghilev and first performed in Paris by Diaghilev's Ballets Russes: The Firebird 1910 Petrushka 1911 and The Rite of Spring 1913. The last transformed the way in which subsequent composers thought about rhythmic structure and was largely responsible for Stravinsky's enduring reputation as a revolutionary who pushed the boundaries of musical design. His "Russian phase" which continued with works such as Renard L'Histoire du soldat and Les noces was followed in the 1920s by a period in which he turned to neoclassicism. The works from this period tended to make use of traditional musical forms concerto grosso fugue and symphony and drew from earlier styles especially those of the 18th century. In the 1950s Stravinsky adopted serial procedures. His compositions of this period shared traits with examples of his earlier output: rhythmic energy the construction of extended melodic ideas out of a few two- or three-note cells and clarity of form and instrumentation.
