Best.-Nr. 16-4196London: J. & W. Chester Ltd. 1924. 30.7x 24.4 cm. 862 2pp. Light foxing on a few pages and tfhe cover. . From the collection of the poet and playwright René Morax . He founded his Théâtre du Jorat near Mézières Switzerland in 1903. Made entirely of wood so as to be integrated into the barns of the surrounding countryside it was described this way in an early account: “A theater decidedly unlike any other. A sort of vast chalet a kind of huge barn smelling of resin dried hay fresh fruit and on days when there was a performance Sunday clothes but retaining the rustic dignity of a shrine. A large stage descending in broad steps toward the orchestra pit …”The theater was closed for several years during the Great War and Morax conceived a drama on the subject of King David to reopen it in 1921. When he turned to his wealthy friend Werner Reinhart who incidentally had recently funded the creation of Stravinsky’s Soldier’s Tale telling him that he was taking inspiration from Hindu theater for this work his patron offered to lend rare Hindu drums in addition to financial assistance. The text is drawn from the Hebrew Bible I and II Samuel I Kings in addition to the Huguenot Psalter which includes poetry by Clément Marot. The poet’s brother Jean Morax set to work designing costumes and sets. After several more established composers turned him down René on the advice of Stravinsky and the distinguished conductor Ernest Ansermet chose the then unknown twenty-eight year old Arthur Honegger. “When Swiss poet Rene Morax 1873-1963 was looking for a composer for his new King David libretto Stravinsky recommended the twenty-nine-year-old Arthur Honegger a composer who just six years later creating the film score for Abel Gance’s Napoleon would reveal himself as a master of music’s ability to translate epics into sweeping evocative sound. In 1921 right on the cusp of his first successes Honegger wrote the David score in a flush of creative energy.”. Provenance from the estate of René Morax.

Very good with small closed tear at lower margin."It was May of 1968 in Berkeley and Zellerbach Hall was soon to open its spacious glass doors for the first time. The program to be played: Igor Stravinsky’s “Symphony of Psalms” and “Oedipus Rex” conducted by Robert Craft and the celebrated composer himself. Unfortunately Stravinsky had fallen ill and was unable to conduct. But he did still attend this inaugural performance at UC Berkeley’s famous music hall — legend has it that the distracted audience was more enraptured by Stravinsky’s reaction to the music than by the actual performance itself."

1966Best.-Nr. 951091966. Rare autograph letter signed by Russian-born composer Igor Stravinsky. One page type-written dated December 21st 1966 and addressed to John McClure at Columbia Records the letter reads "Dear John Please answer this Mercury Record letter for me telling them that they can have the permission though they can have it I think without asking me in any case. I have been ordered to rest -- no conducting at all -- after Chicago. This postpones our January plans I greatly regret to say and not only for me as I realize bu can't help. Happy New Year to you and your wife. Igor Stravinsky." The recipient John McClure was an American recording producer at Columbia Records throughout the 1950s and later operated in a freelance capacity. He worked on over 30 recordings with Stravinsky 200 with Leonard Bernstein and oversaw recordings by the Boston Pops Orchestra under John Williams. Double matted and framed with a black and white portrait of Stravinsky. The entire piece measures 19.5 inches by 14.5 inches. In fine condition.

Although most of his recordings were made with studio musicians he also worked with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra the Cleveland Orchestra the CBC Symphony Orchestra the New York Philharmonic Orchestra the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and the Bavarian Broadcasting Symphony Orchestra. unknown
