65938Paris Larose 1946. Large 8vo 27.0 x 17.2 cm 84 pp. 31 text figures. Near contemporary blue buckram with gilt title on the spine. = Quite useful for identification of the largely endemic avifauna of this rather isolated island in the Indian Ocean as the text illustrations show taxonomically important parts; most often the bird's heads and beaks sometimes whole animals. Oddly the drawing of a dodo - not known from Réunion - forms the title page vignette. Broad margins. Bound copies such as this one are rare. Stamp on front paste-down and a small blind-stamp on the title page otherwise a very good clean copy. hardcover

196344025AB1963. England / U.S.A / Australia Penguin Books 1963. 13 cm x 20 cm. 153 pages. Original softcover. Very good condition with only very minor signs of external wear. "During the performances of fashionable operas in an unidentified but "civilized" town in northern Europe the musicians with the exception of the conscientious bass drummer tell tales read stories and exchange gossip to relieve the tedium of the bad music they are paid to perform. In this delightful and now classic narrative written by the brilliant composer and critic Hector Berlioz we are privy to twenty-five highly entertaining evenings with a fascinating group of distracted performers. As we near the two-hundredth anniversary of Berlioz's birth Jacques Barzun's pitch-perfect translation of Evenings with the Orchestra with a new foreword by Berlioz scholar Peter Bloom testifies to the enduring pleasure found in this most witty and amusing book. "Full of knowledge penetration good sense individual wit stock humor justifiable exasperation understanding exaggeration emotion and rhetoric of every kind" Randall Jarrell New York Times Book Review "To succeed in writing these tales as Berlioz most brilliantly does requires a combination of qualities which is very rare the many-faceted curiosity of the dramatist with the aggressively personal vision of the lyric poet" W. H. Auden The Griffin". Amazon. paperback

20031<b>BERLIOZ HECTOR.</b> 1803-1869. French composer; creator of <i>Harold in Italy</i> <i>Symphonie Fantastique</i> and other masterpieces. ALS. <i>"Hector Berlioz"</i>. 2pp. 4to. Paris October 9 1834. To l'intendant general de la liste civile. In French with translation.<p><i>"I am planning to give three concerts over the course of next November. The Salle des Menus Plaisirs which you have been kind enough to make available to me several times in the past is really the only venue in Paris that lends itself to these kinds of musical events. So I request that you will grant me permission to hold mine there. These concerts just like the ones I gave last years would take place on Sundays at 2 in the afternoon. With all my respect dear General Intendant your humble servant…"</i></p><p>The 1830s were difficult for Berlioz. Bereft of the recognition he craved and unable to earn a steady income from composing he worked as a critic for several journals and newspapers and accepted the few commissions that came his way. Nevertheless he produced a number of works including the symphony <i>Harold en Italie</i>which premiered on November 23 1834 about a month and a half after writing our letter at the Paris Conservatoire then housed in the Salle des Menus Plaisirs a theater attached to the Hôtel des Menus-Plaisirs and the venue for most of Berlioz's symphonic works. <i>Harold en Italie</i> based on Byron's narrative poemso captivated Italian violinist and composer Niccolo Paganini for whom it was written that in 1838 he presented Berlioz with a gift of 20000 francs. Several weeks before the premiere the Paris Conservatoire was also the venue for another Berlioz program on November 9 which included his <i>Symphonie fantastique</i> as well as the first performances of <i>Sara la baigneuse</i> version H69A and <i>la Belle voyageuse. </i>A plaque outside the Salle du Conservatoire commemorates Berlioz's performances there.</p><p>Our letter was written from 34 rue de Londres Berlioz's home between 1834 and 1836. </p><p>Docketed in the top margin. Folded and slightly creased; a very early letter and as such uncommon.</p><br /><br /><br />
