A two page typed note laid-into the book by one Lili Yuri Sasaki dated March 16 1964 explains the circumstances of the book's signing at the opening night of an exhibition of Vera Stravinsky's paintings in Cincinnati Ohio. Sasaki describes the impression created by the arrival of the Stravinskys at the exhibition and explains that she'd been given two items by her husband to have autographed by Stravinsky--a pirated edition of "L'histoire du Soldat;" and should the composer be reluctant to sign the piracy the present pocket score. Sure enough on looking over the piracy and noticing the imprint Stravinsky "suddenly looked disgusted and said 'they have no right -- I gave them no permission -- I will not sign this one' and handed it back much to the curiosity of the crowd. Then I handed him the Boosey & Hawkes Octet for wind instruments. He again looked it over closely.then turned the pages.looked pleased and signed saying; 'Yes I will sign this one.' and he did with a flourish!.beamed and returned the book. BLESS HIM.Vera later added 'and Vera.'" In addition to the note a printed invitation to the event on a 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 inch card and a promotional brochure for the exhibition are laid in.

Typed Letter Signed
Hollywood 1962. unbound. very good. Fine content T.L.S. 4to 1 page Hollywood California December 12th 1962 to singer Jerry McLain attempting to give him musical advice without hurting his feelings in full: "I would be certainly glad yo give you advice but never hearing you singing and not knowing how far you are in the knowledge of works in general their spirit and technique I am in difficulty if not in impossibility to help you. The transposition of the Shakespearean songs in a higher or lower key is a ruin of my instrumentation and the piano reduction of them is not for a concert performance only for the study of the music." Placed into a white matte with a black background with two openings - whereby the letter is actually floated while the second opening accommodates a photograph by Weegie of the composer leaning against a mirror that gives the illusion of a double exposure and set into a black acrylic frame to 21.5" x 18.5".

Stravinsky in Pictures and Documents
Simon & Schuster 1978. 1st Edition. . Hardcover. As New/As New. As New copy in As New dustwrapper with price $ 35.00 on flap. Stated First printing. Flawless unread copy: pages covers and jacket are crisp intact and unmarked. Protected in clear Mylar cover. Quarto 9¾ - 12 inches tall. 688pp. Heavily illustrated. Note that this is oversized book for priority or international shipping please contact me to make special arrangement. Summary: This initial selection from the extraordinary lifetime of letters to and from Igor Stravinsky annotated by his friend and associate Robert Craft includes correspondence with W. H. Auden Jean Cocteau Lincoln Kirstein and other friends as well as Stravinsky's letters to Nadia Boulanger Ernest Ansermet and Craft himself. The book presents a wealth of previously unpublished information about Stravinsky's relationships with other musicians and about his methods of composition. The opening section based on letters to Stravinsky from his first wife Catherine is among the most important material yet made available for an understanding of the composer's personal and family life.If the exchanges with Auden The Rake's Progress and Cocteau Oedipus Rex take first place for general interest the letters to Ansermet - who conducted more performances of Stravinsky's music than anyone but the composer himself - give a remarkable view of the musical and ballet worlds especially of the Diaghilev period and of the great impresario himself. This book accompanied by two further volumes is a major contribution to the Stravinsky canon and to the cultural history of the twentieth century. 1st Printing 1st Printing 1st Printing <br/> <br/> Simon & Schuster hardcover
