Charpentier, Gustave, French composer (1860-1956).
2 autograph (picture) postcards signed. [Cannes and Antibes , 1905 and 8 June 1910 postmark].
Postcard format. Together 1 p. and 4 lines. The earlier postcard from Cannes to the singer Marie Rueff with a short message directly underneath, apologizing for not being able to attend an audition: "Un peu loin ! pour l'audition. Excusez-moi". - The second postcard to a M. Chatelin concerns Charpentier's charitable Conservatoire Populaire Mimi Pinson. Because the famous mime Georges Wague was still advertising the pantomime class despite a "limitation of students", Charpentier underlines that "all inscriptions will only be definite after the approval of the administration and of the professor", and gives further instructions. - Charpentier had founded the Conservatoire Populaire Mimi Pinson in 1902 to provide free artistic education to working girls in Paris. The name of the conservatory refers to the emblematic working-class character from Alfred Musset's 1845 poem "Mimi Pinson, profil de grisette". The poem inspired Henry Murger to create his like-named character in "Scènes de la Vie Bohème". Charpentier's greatest success "Louise", which premiered in 1900, is the story of working-class life in Paris, the heroine being a seamstress. Unable to repeat this success as a composer, Charpentier remained active as a music critic and concert promoter as well as with charitable work. -The postcard to Rueff with a tear and pinchfolds not affecting the text; the postcard to Chatelin partly smudged.

(Oblong) 8vo and visiting card format. 3 pp. To a friend with congratulations on his work, of which he hopes to receive a copy: "Je suis très content de votre triomphe [...] Recevrai-je votre chef d'oeuvre?". - To a friend cancelling their meeting the next day, due to his promise to attend a performance of his opera "Louise", an appointment he had almost forgotten: "J'avai oublié que demain j'ai promis d'être à Louise - qui passe en soirée! [...] C'est un gros malheur! Je l'avais si peu prévu. Vous pardonnez à mon étourderie que vient de m'apparaitre tantôt dans toute la candeur [...]". On headed stationery of the Oeuvre de Mimi Pinson, an association providing the workingwomen of Paris with free theatre tickets, as well as free music and dance classes, founded by Charpentier in 1900. - A visiting card expressing his condolences: "Mon coeur bat avec le votre en ces douleureux moments. Mes hommages respectueux [...]". - Slightly creased; visiting card with small rust stains.

Charpentier, Gustave, French composer (1860-1956).
Autograph letter signed. No place, 9. X. 1897.
8vo. 1 page. To the cellist and conductor Achille Kerrion (1868-1939) with admiration for his initiative, expressing his confidence that his experience as a conductor will ensure the "Concerts Modernes" a prominent position within French art: "Je vous felicite de votre initiative. Je suis sur que sous votre habile direction les Concerts Modernes prendront une place très importante dans le Mouvement d'art français [...]". - With small marginal tears, as well as a few tiny holes.

Charpentier, Gustave, French composer (1860-1956).
Autograph letter signed. Paris, 3. X. 1924.
8vo. 1 p. Thanking the recipient for promoting the Conservatoire Populaire Mimi Pinson and for reconciling an earlier conflict: "Je tiens à vous remercier de la bonne propagande que vous faites autour de vous pour M. P. [Mimi Pinson] et qui nous a valu la visite d'une de vos jeunes camarades amenée par Mlle. Pétunia [?]. Cette façon d'agir si différente de celle qu'arborent habituellement les camarades que nous quittent efface definitivement le souvenir de notre désaccord [...]". - Charpentier had founded the Conservatoire Populaire Mimi Pinson in 1902 to provide free artistic education to working girls in Paris. The name of the conservatory refers to the emblematic working-class character from Alfred Musset's 1845 poem "Mimi Pinson, profil de grisette". The poem inspired Henry Murger to create his like-named character in "Scènes de la Vie Bohème". Charpentier's greatest success "Louise", which premiered in 1900, is the story of working-class life in Paris, the heroine being a seamstress. Unable to repeat this success as a composer, Charpentier remained active as a music critic and concert promoter as well as with charitable work. - On stationery with printed letterhead of the "Hotel Palais d'Orsay". Slightly creased.
