[Rossini] Gustave Vaëz (1812-1862), librettiste belge.
Lettre autographe signée à Tresse
Gustave Vaëz (1812-1862), librettiste belge. L.A.S., Paris, 17 août 1844, 1p in-8. Belle lettre autour de la re-création de l'opéra Othello de Rossini le 26 août 1844, à l'éditeur Christophe Tresse : « Mon cher Monsieur Tresse, nous avons, Alphonse Royer et moi un Othello traduit et réarrangé qui se jour à l'opéra le lundi 26 de ce mois, dans 9 jours ; la musique, comme vous le savez, est de Rossini, les rôles sont joués par [Gilbert] Duprez, [Paul] Baroilhet, [Nicolas-Prosper Levasseur] et Mme [Rosine] Stolz [Stoltz], on y a mis de la danse et tout ce qu'il faut pour rendre la représentation brillante. Nous voulons, suivant l'usage, faire imprimer d'avance pour vendre le jour même à l'opéra. Vous convient-il de vous rendre acquéreur du libretto au prix de mille francs que nous avons déterminé comme le plus bas prix auquel nous céderons la propriété de la chose. Cela dit, vous n'avez qu'un mot de réponse à me faire : oui ou non ; vous me ferez connaître votre décision demain n'est ce pas car il ne reste qu'une semaine pour l'impression. Soyez assez bon pour m'écrire deux lignes. Bien à vous dans tous les cas. Gustave Vaëz ». Tresse a effectivement édité le livret en 1844. Très intéressant courrier. [134-2]

[Sarah Bernhardt] Emile Blavet (1838-1924), écrivain, librettiste. L.A.S., Hôtel de Bade, sd, 2p 1/2 in-12. Incroyable et étonnante lettre à l'actrice Sarah Bernhardt (1844-1923) : « Vous me disiez hier que vous m'aimiez bien. Et moi donc ! Seulement, chez vous, cela date de quelques semaines, et c'est de l'amitié pure. Chez moi, cela date de deux ans (devinez à quelle époque) et c'est. tout autre chose ! J'ai été bien bien discret, nest-ce pas ? [.] en tout cas, mon indiscrétion est bien inoffensive, puisque vous partez, que je pars, que nous nous sommes dit un long adieu et que nous nous reverrons pas de plusieurs mois, qui sait même de plusieurs années, jamais peut-être. Je suis au lit, très-souffrant. Vos derniers mot d'hier m'ont mis sans dessus-dessous. Ce qui me désespère c'est d'être à l'hôtel. Si vous saviez l'infirmerie que je rêve !. mais bah ç je crois que je serais plus malade encore. Adieu, ma chère Sarah, bon voyage et soyez heureuse. Moi-même je le serais aussi si j'avais la certitude que vous pensez parfois sans trop de déplaisir à certain toqué qui vous aimait bien. De coeur. ». Très belle d'un amoureux éconduit au moment de la séparation [362]

Alfred Bunn (1796-1860), theatre manager and librettist [ the Theatre Royal, Birmingham ]:
Alfred Bunn lessee of the Theatre Royal Birmingham. Autograph Letter Signed 'A Bunn' to '- Perkins Esq' apologising for 'The dreadful bustle attendant on producing "Waterloo"'.
'Birmm: i.e. the Theatre Royal Birmingham Oct. 13: 1824'. The Oxford DNB's entry on Bunn states that from 1819 to 1824 he held the lease of the Theatre Royal Birmingham. 1p. 8vo. Bifolium. Addressed on reverse of second leaf to '- Perkins Esq'. In fair condition with light signs of age and wear. Bunn begins his letter: 'My dear Sir The dreadful bustle attendant on producing "Waterloo" must be my apology. The Music & Manuscript are herewith sent - & not a note or a syllable of either has been copied.' He thanks 'Mr Howes for his kindness' which he offers to reciprocate 'whenever in my power'. It is unclear which version of a pantomime of the Battle of Waterloo is being referred to here but the Duke of Wellington is said to have enjoyed the 1824 production at Astley's Amphitheatre in London and its revivals see Bradby James and Sharratt 'Performance and Politics in Popular Drama'.

DIBDIN, Charles (librettist/composer)
Four Original Mezzotint Posture or Droll Prints-- "Poor Tom Bowling"; "Paddy Bull's Expedition"; "The Soldier's Adieu": "Walter and His Three Graces.".
London: Robert Sayer 1791-1794. The 1790s witnessed a minor boom in ‘Posture’ prints of subjects taken from Charles Dibdin’s songs. Posture prints often referred to as Song Sheets or Drolls were mezzotints measuring roughly 14 x 10 inches which were advertised for sale in both colored and uncolored versions. Upon the print we can see the lyrics and an etched accompanying image. In the main the major audience for these was the middle class and they are representative of the most popular songs of the era. Three of the four prints offered here were written by Charles Dibdin uncle of the venerable Thomas Frognall Dibdin. The composer/writer of Walter and His Three Graces is unknown though likely Dibdin as well and while Dibdin wrote the music for “A Soldier’s Adieu†the libretto was written by Isaac Bickerstaff. The four mezzotints on offer here are;Poor Tom Bowling 1791 Paddy Bull's Expedition 1792 The Soldier's Adieu 1793 Walter and his Three Graces 1794. On the upper left of each lyric area is the Sayer stock number and they are respectively; 274 275 296 & 316. All were printed by Robert Sayer and are glassed in their original frames. A Soldier’s Adieu has an overabundance of lyrics and the frame covers the imprint and date. Toning and some staining but in remarkably good condition considering their fragility. “Poor Tom Bowling†& “Paddy Bull’s Expedition†are recorded by OCLC in one copy only each are and both at Yale although unquestionably the Bodlean has copies but they are offline. No auction records.Robert Sayer was a leading publisher and seller of prints maps and maritime charts in Georgian Britain. He is chiefly remembered for his atlases and other cartographic works publishing the Mundane System 1774 of Samuel Dunn and the famous North American Pilot 1775 He would have issued these song sheets as a bread-and-butter steady source of income. He was not the only printer issuing these song sheets as they were steady sellers to all classes. "Such songs would constitute a major but feasible luxury for a skilled labourer such as a coachman with an income of 15 to 20s. per week†N. Grindle. And they were immensely popular and many printers of the time put forth a number of them including S. W. Fores. Even American printers entered the fray with the venerable Isaiah Thomas publishing Charles Dibdin's 'Nancy or the Sailor's Journal’ in 1798 Dibdin's most popular song Poor Tom Bowling based on the life of Charles’ brother was unquestionably his masterpiece. Even the literati of the day were admirers of Dibdin’s songs with Thoreau claiming Poor Tom Bowling as one of his favorite songs. Furthermore there is an extant manuscript book of vocal music entitled ‘Songs and Duetts’ copied out in Jane Austen’s hand. "Included in this manuscript book is ‘The Soldier’s Adieu’ by Charles Dibdin; with two brothers in the Navy Jane however crossed out the reference to ‘soldier’ and replaced it with ‘sailor’†Jane Austen’s House.Charles Dibdin 1745-1814 British musician dramatist novelist actor and songwriter As his parents had plans for him to become a cleric he was sent to Winchester but his inherent love of music soon had him abandoning that path and he was soon employed as a singing actor. He was to pursue music as a vocation for the rest of his life and is considered the most popular songster of 18th century England. His military and naval songs were especially loved "It was said his sea songs were worth ten thousand sailors to the cause of England and were officially appropriated by the British navy to use during the war with France.†His reputation grew and grew and eventually he owned a small London theater called the Sans Souci which he opened in 1795 to host his one-man shows. Numerous books devoted to his songs were published in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century.Provenance: Collection of John B. and Marie-Teresa Vander Sande Robert Sayer unknown

C'est pour prouver à l'ami que je n'ai pas jeté mes rimes au hasard comme on parait le supposer. J'use des vers libres parce qu'il me semble donner de l'allure et de la coquetterie au dialogue - quand il est bien dit - dans les sujets légers. » Belle lettre. [503]

Longue et très intéressante lettre, au ton très amical. Il y parle de son projet d'opéra-bouffe, avec Albert Grisar, Les Douze innocentes, refusé par la nouvelle direction du théâtre et le procès lancé par Grisar. Il mentionne le mariage de Pailleron et Melle Buloz, précisant : « Pailleron est un malin, et fait des comédies en vers (1ère étape), il dirigera la revue (2de étape), il sera à l'académie (but !) ». Najac eut en effet raison ! La lettre mentionne encore Dumas, Gustave Doré, Ed Martin, etc. Taches d'encre d'époque ayant rendu le papier cassant à ce niveau. Très belle lettre. [353-2]
