11949Used; Like New/Used; Like New. Pair of rare original Russian cabinet photographs of the Imperial Russian music publisher and philanthropist founder of the Belyayev circle a society of musicians in Russia whose members included Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov Alexander Glazunov and Anatoly Lyadov. 11 x 16.5 cm; 13 x 18 cm. <br><br />In 1885 Belyayev created the publishing house "M. P. Belaieff" in Leipzig to secure international copyright to Russian composers; until then international copyright did not extend to music published in Russia. Eventually he published over 2000 compositions by Russian composers the first of which was Glazunov's Overture on Greek Themes. The works published there were edited to a high standard and the elaborate and expensively produced color lithograph title pages rapily became his trademark and are highly prized by collectors today. unknown books

197014433Poughkeepsie NY ca. 1970. Near fine. Two albums each oblong 4to. Measuring approximately 10.25” x 7” with 155 color photographs loosely mounted rectos only in corners. Album 1: Green faux-leather covers gilt title decoration to front sting bound 59 black paper leaves each with two photographs recto mounted 118 prints total; well preserved near fine. Album 2: Ivory faux-leather covers gilt title decoration to front 20 black paper leaves 19 with recto mounted photographs most two to a page final leaf blank; crease through center of front cover otherwise clean contents near fine. <br/><br/>A fantastic pair of albums capturing 1970 Poughkeepsie NY area regional country music acts venues and patrons. Prints almost entirely uniform in size measuring approximately 3.5” square many date stamped outside the image area. The first album shows spots in and around Poughkeepsie primarily the Brand X Corral bar on Rt. 94 in Vails Gate NY. Acts include Gil Rogers whose albums we suspect these were based on internal evidence The Country Cousins and Country Skyline. The second album follows Rogers down to West Virginia for his performance during the 1970 Eastern States Country Music Convention on the famed WWVA Jamboree in Wheeling’s Capitol Theater. Rogers recorded a handful of honky-tonk singles in the early 1970’s on the Stop label and enjoyed regional success as a performer for decades. These amateur images show the elaborate stage dress music gear and social settings of Woodstock-era country music. That famed festival was held less than a year earlier and some 35 miles from where most of the images shown here were snapped though one could be forgiven for guessing they were taken years and miles apart. An album that demonstrates how this blue collar form adhered to traditions and fans throughout the cultural sea changes of the late 1960s and early 70s and a colorful portrait of a working regional musician. hardcover books
