1923145578Arcueil-Cachan: 21 February 1923. The composer writes in French to the editorial secretary of the avant-garde literary periodical Les Feuilles libres. He asks for feedback on an enclosed "chronicle" no longer present and enquires when "our dear Director" - Marcel Raval the editor-in-chief of the journal - is scheduled to return. This letter is apparently unpublished. Les Feuilles libres was published between 1918 and 1928. It was significant to the 1920s avant-garde movement in Paris contributors including Pablo Picasso and Jean Cocteau. Satie's contributions appeared between 1922 and 1924. The work he refers to in the letter is likely "The Expired" which appeared in the "Musical Chronicle" section of the accompanying March/April 1923 issue of the journal. Satie was a closer correspondent of Raval 1900-1956. In another letter dated 21 October 1924 he addresses him as "Mon cher Directeur & Ami" refers to "how kind you have always been to me" and describes Les Feuilles libres as "delightful" Volta pp. 196-7. He ends the present letter with a wish "that he come back quickly!" The letter is signed with Satie's distinctive monogram. "His signature was often replaced by a kind of logo: his initials harmoniously intertwined in the manner of the seals employed by the fin-de-siècle painters influenced by Japanese art" Volta p. 12. Bifolium leaf size: 182 x 137 mm of plain paper. Handwritten in black ink across one side totalling ten lines of text. Together with a typed English translation on yellow paper with the comment below "The reference to 'our dear Director' is Marcel Raval" annotated top left in pen identifying Satie as the writer. Creased along folds else fine. Ornella Volta Satie Seen Through His Letters 1989. unknown

Loose in original publisher's teal blue illustrated wrappers printed in dark green and dark red as issued. 1f. recto title printed in dark red verso blank 11 i blank pp. No bar lines. With publisher's catalogue to verso of lower wrapper.<br /> <br /> The first work is dedicated to Suzanne Roux the second to Edouard Dreyfus and the third to Jane Mortier.<br /> <br /> Wrappers slightly worn; spine partially separated at spine. First Edition. Orledge p. 299. <br /> <br /> Composed 30 June-4 July 1913.<br /> <br /> "Satie was an iconoclast a man of ideas who looked constantly towards the future. Debussy christened him 'the precursor' because of his early harmonic innovations though he surpassed his friend's conception of him by anticipating most of the 'advances' of 20th-century music - from organized total chromaticism to minimalism. To some extent he made a virtue of his technical limitations but his painstaking quest for perfection in simplicity coupled with his ironic wit and his shrewd awareness of developments in other fields of contemporary art made him the personification of the wartime esprit nouveau in France." Robert Orledge revised by Caroline Potter in Grove Music Online. E. Demets [PN E.1795 (1)-(3) D.] unknown

1969584243Davis California: University of California Davis Campus Department of Music & Committee of Arts and Lectures 1969. Unbound. Fine. Handbill or small broadside. Measuring 11" x 8½". Printed in two colors. Faintest vertical crease else fine. According to an article on the UC Davis blog the November 1969 event was the brainchild of musician and faculty member Stan Lunetta and UC Davis grad student John Dinwiddie with assistance from UC Davis music professor Larry Austin. Of particular note is the premiere performance of John Cage's "33 1/2" which included setting out a dozen phonographs and nearly 250 records with no instructions; the audience could play the records creating the piece. Cage also gave a lecture titled "How to improve the world you will only make matters worse." Also Erik Satie's piece "Vexations" was played 840 times ! beginning at 6am and ending after midnight. <br /> <br /> In addition to the aforementioned participants the handbill also advertises performances by Ashley Woodbury Lee Salkinds California Time Machine and Riener. A 50th anniversary production inspired by Mewantemooseicday and using the same title was held in 2019 in venues across Glasgow Scotland. A cool and very uncommon handbill for an important musical event; UC Davis notes in the article that they possess a copy but we have been unable to locate any other copies in OCLC or the trade.

191421006Paris: Lucien Vogel 1914. First Edition. Limited Edition. Hardcover Portfolio with buckram cloth spine paper pasted onto boards second large paper laid onto this paper for title. Custom Quarter Calf Clamshell Box with Art Deco fabric pasted down on other surfaces. Very Good. Charles Martin. No. 95 of 225 with a total issue of 900 copies. Folio 40 by 44 cm. 20 pochoir plates 20 pages of Satie's music with music notation. The music score is printed but can easily be mistaken for manuscript handwritten with a fountain pen. The Martin pochoir plates are magnificent and although they were created before the supposed debut of Art Deco in 1923 they capture perfectly the Art Deco aesthetic. The clamshell box is 42.5 by 47.5 cm and 4 cm deep. The boards of the portfolio have a considerable amount of soiling with several dampstains overlapping on the front cover but the design of the front cover still impresses and it suffers no significant loss of integrity in our view -- the dampstains could pass as deliberate marbling we think on the underlying paper and even to some extent on the title overlay sheet. The portfolio is lacking its ribbon ties and there are a few chips on the spine edge of this paper. The first title leaf has a fair amount of foxing and dusty soiling in its margins with less on successive leaves. Most leaves have a modicum of soiling virtually always by the edges and not significantly disconcerting in our view. Early leaves do has some edge roughness including short closed tears and light creasing. Best to consult our photos to get a solid idea of what we are loosely describing. The clamshell box has some scuffs on the calf and other light wear. Overall we consider this a quite attractive copy and can comfortably peg it as Very Good. Lucien Vogel hardcover
