A treasure from the formative years of jazz diva Diana Krall. In 1980 Diana graduated from Woodlands Junior Secondary School in Nanaimo, British Columbia on Vancouver Island, Canada. Her photo first appears on page 19 where she is recognized on the 1978-79 Arts Honour Roll. On page 121 in the Band section appears a gorgeous head-shot of a young Diana playing the saxophone, beneath which appears the caption 'Diana!'. Michelle Krall, Diana's younger sister, appears on page 106. Finally, Diana's graduation photo and write-up appear on page 58. Beside her photo we read "Diana Piano resembles her Dad. In her spare time she eats and sleeps. Her life ambition is to replace Oscar Peterson. 'Way to go, Diana!'". Diana's current global superstardom is clearly no accident! The book itself is clean, tight and unmarked with very light wear. An excellent copy of this truly wonderful and inspiring item. Book
First collected edition of Messiaen's detailed accounts of each of Mozart's piano concertos, which had appeared individually in concert programs. Olivier Messiaen (1908-1992) was the pre-eminent French composer of the second half of the 20th century. From a total edition of 100 numbered copies, this is ONE OF ONLY 50 COPIES WITH A LOOSE COLOR LITHOGRAPH BY BALTHUS. The lithograph, in soft colors, depicts a bay with a smoking volcano in the background. Balthus (Balthazar Klossowski de Rola, 1908-2001) was one of the great French artists of the 20th century. In theory, the book is supposed to be signed by Messiaen and the lithograph by Balthus, but in fact neither is signed. The publication of this book was carried out in the most chaotic possible way: Messiaen ended up signing only presentation copies, and Balthus ended up signing only a few impressions of the lithograph. Large folio (56 x 38.5 cm). Loose as issued in printed wraps and publisher's cloth portfolio/clamshell box. FINE AND BRIGHT, with no defects.

Litografia riquadrata (mm 600x450), in ottimo stato di conservazione. In alto, centrale, il titolo: "Piano regolatore delle Fabbriche nella regione di Vanchiglia, approvato da S. M. con R. L. P. 12.7mbre 1846". In basso, centrale, le informazioni tipografiche. All'interno della riquadratura, in basso a destra, indicazioni dell'approvazione ad opera del Consiglio degli edili, il cui vicario era Benso di Cavour prima della sua nomina a Presidente del Consiglio. Interessantissima testimonianza della progettazione del quartiere di Vanchiglia, ad opera di un consorzio di costruttori con a capo Antonelli. Degno di nota il Cimitero Israelitico, che sorgeva nell'isolato compreso tra C.so San Maurizio, Via Napione, Via Artisti e Via Bava. Rilevante l'indicazione della Chiesa dedicata a San Luca: il Comune di Torino non finanziò il progetto dell'edificio sacro, per mancanza di soldi e speculazioni; la Marchesa Giulia Falletti di Barolo decise di accollarsene le spese a condizione che la chiesa venisse intitolata a Santa Giulia. Nella progettazione dei palazzi viene indicato il nome delle famiglie cui sarebbero appartenuti: Bolmida, Colla, Giacomasso, Perino, Conte, Massa, Balesio, Scarampi di Prunej. Interessante notare la toponomastica: troviamo Via del Progresso, Via della Speranza e Via dell'Attività , Indice del progetto di riqualificazione del Borgo.. .
