Vienna: Tobias Haslinger 1840. Book. Good. Soft cover. 1st Edition. Regarded by many as being the inventor of the Viennese Waltz he lived 42 years beginning in Vienna as a violin player in the Michael Pamer orchestra. In 1818 he left to form a trio which five years later became a quartet with the addition of a young viola player - Johann Strauss the Elder. The ensemble quickly expanded into a full-grown orchestra. In 1825 Lanner and Strauss went their own separate ways. Although they still remained friends they were serious rivals in dance music. Lanner became music director at the Redoutens�le in 1829 and two years later he was appointed bandmaster of the Second Vienna Militia Regiment. His musical output totalled over 200 works - here are two in their original musical sheet music format with various stamps from his later period sold as a lot. 11pps each oblong usual foxing and soiling sold loose.

Kreutzer Conradin
Das Nachtlager in Granada Overture
Vienna: Witzendorf 1834. Book. Good. Soft cover. 1st Edition. Kreutzer abandoned his studies in the law University of Freiburg and went to Vienna about 1804 where he met Haydn and may have studied with Albrechtsberger while he tried his hand unsuccessfully at singspielen. He spent 1811-12 in Stuttgart where at least three of his operas were staged and he was awarded the post of Hofkapellmeister. He was from 1812 to 1816 Kapellmeister to the king of W�rttemberg. Once he was successful he became a prolific composer and wrote a number of operas for the Theater am K�rntnertor Theater in der Josefstadt and Theater an der Wien Vienna which have disappeared from the stage and are not likely to be revived. In 1840 he became conductor of the opera at Cologne. His daughters Cecilia and Marie Kreutzer have been sopranos of some renown. Kreutzer owes his fame almost exclusively to Das Nachtlager in Granada 1834 which kept the stage for half a century in spite of changes in musical taste. It was written in the style of Carl Maria von Weber. Here is the original overture for two hands usual wear and foxing oblong. German romantic composer Franz Albert Kulling's signed on lower right corner. Witzendorf Paperback

"Marilyn Monroe was 29 when she became acting coach Lee Strasberg's favorite student and protegee in New York City. Over the next eight years the screen goddess was a sisterly friend and household rival of actress Susan Strasberg just 17 when they met. Susan for a time shared her bedroom with this envied intruder object of the paternal adulation of her famous father who was impersonal and critical with his own children by this account. The author swings between admiration and disillusionment with Monroe who sketched wrote poetry and sympathized with underdogs when she wasn't floundering in depressed insomnia or drug-induced paranoia. This wise intimate affecting portrait reveals hidden facets of Monroe's quicksilver personality". Warner Books Hardcover
