1890List3666New York: Jos. W. Stern & Co 1890. Folio sheet music illustrated pictorial cover printed in orange. 5 pp. including cover. Approximately 13 ½ x 10 ½ inches. Covers detached loss to front cover contents complete fair to good. A decorative late nineteenth-century dance publication for “Trocha†described on the cover as “A Cuban Dance†composed by the African American composer and bandleader W. H. Tyers. The elaborate pictorial cover incorporates stylized tropical foliage and island scenery rendered in a bold single-color design typical for the period’s fascination with exoticized musical forms. <br /> <br /> William H. Tyers 1870–1924 was an African American composer arranger and bandleader active in New York during the ragtime era. Born in Petersburg Virginia to Henry Tyers and Jane “Jennie†Jones both formerly enslaved he spent part of his youth in Richmond before his family relocated to New York City where he began studying piano. His early teachers recognized an aptitude for composition as well as performance and by the mid-1880s he was writing dance pieces including polkas and waltzes. Around the age of twenty Tyers secured employment as a music librarian and arranger with a touring concert company a position that brought him to Europe where he studied orchestration and arranging with Professor Gaspari in Hamburg.<br /> <br /> Returning to New York Tyers became active in the city’s rapidly expanding popular music trade working as an arranger and composer for publishers including F. A. Mills and Jos. W. Stern & Co. In 1896 he published “Sambo†a syncopated march sometimes considered to be one of the first instrumental rags.1 “Trocha†also released in the 1980s brought Tyers prominence for his ability to write Latin-style rhythms. It was re-issued in 1913 as a tango and its success led Tyers to work as an arranger with Joseph W. Stern in 1897.<br /> <br /> Tyers’ compositions blended contemporary American dance music with Caribbean and Latin themes a style reflected in pieces such as Trocha and later in his well-known ragtime composition Panama 1911 which remained a staple of early jazz and dance orchestras. OCLC finds two copies with different entries at the Cleveland Public Library and the British Museum Reference Collections. <br /> <br /> 1 “William Tyers Music Arranger†African American Registry https://aaregistry.org/story/william-tyers-born/ accessed March 10 2026.

014631[Fidel Castro] Orestes Ferrara (1876-1972), écrivain cubain d'origine italienne, s'étant battu pour l'indépendance de Cuba, et en devint ambassadeur et député. L.A.S., Hôtel Ritz, Madrid, 7 janvier 1959, 2p in-8. A André Sabatier, directeur littéraire chez Albin-Michel. « Mon cher Mr Sabatier, Les choses de Cuba ne marchent pas bien. Les hommes nouveaux sont pires que les autres. On ne sait pas harmoniser la liberté avec l'ordre. La liberté est un désir de l'âme mais l'ordre est une nécessité de la vie, et surtout de la vie moderne qui a tant de complications et de rouages. Mais dans mon pays, on pense à soi-même et pas aux autres. Je ne sais pas si je resterai à l'Unesco. Je n'y tiens pas. Et si je peux me retirer sans apparaître que je démissionne pour des raisons d'ordre politique, je le ferai avec plaisir. Je n'aimais pas les anciens et je n'aime pas les nouveaux. Mon "Felipe II" est en train d'être copié. J'espère l'avoir dans un mois. Si je viens à Paris plus tard, je vous remettrai une copie avec quelque ami. Miomandre m'a félicité pour la nouvelle année. Je ne lui ai pas répondu par ce qu'il a été très mal élevé lorsqu'il m'a parlé par téléphone. Mes respectueuses salutations à madame Sabatier. A vous mon très amical coup de main. Orestes Ferrara ». Rare lettre de ce révolutionnaire devenu cubain qui critique ici l'arrivée au pouvoir de Fidel Castro et ses alliés. Battista a fui le pays le 31 décembre 1958 et dès le 1er janvier, Castro survole le pays avant d'être nommé le 7 janvier, le jour-même de cette lettre. [354]

1900542Havana 1900. Good. Three typescript letters 4pp. total. Previously folded light chipping at edges. Evenly tanned. An interesting series of three letters from the Adjutant General W.V. Richards at U.S. Army Headquarters in Havana after the end of the Spanish-American War during the period of American military government. On February 28 1900 the military governor herein authorized the purchase of a book collection owned by heirs of a Don José Maria de Cardenas y Rodriguez from the town of Guanabacoa for the formation of a library at the university in Havana "at a price not to exceed $4000." In the second letter dated April 17 the collection seems to have been sold out from under them at a much lower price which has left the governor wondering why the university could not acquire the books with the allotted funds. In the third letter dated May 23 the collection seems to be for sale again by a third party and the governor again states that he is willing to purchase the collection for the previously stated sum "However to warn you that there has been so much said about the purchase of this Library for the Institute that there is danger that some of the books may have been extracted or that the property is not as valuable as when it was inspected." A neat record of a book deal gone sideways in 1900 Havana. unknown books
