1963rif. 44025AB1963. England / U.S.A / Australia Penguin Books 1963. 13 cm x 20 cm. 153 pages. Original softcover. Very good condition with only very minor signs of external wear. "During the performances of fashionable operas in an unidentified but "civilized" town in northern Europe the musicians with the exception of the conscientious bass drummer tell tales read stories and exchange gossip to relieve the tedium of the bad music they are paid to perform. In this delightful and now classic narrative written by the brilliant composer and critic Hector Berlioz we are privy to twenty-five highly entertaining evenings with a fascinating group of distracted performers. As we near the two-hundredth anniversary of Berlioz's birth Jacques Barzun's pitch-perfect translation of Evenings with the Orchestra with a new foreword by Berlioz scholar Peter Bloom testifies to the enduring pleasure found in this most witty and amusing book. "Full of knowledge penetration good sense individual wit stock humor justifiable exasperation understanding exaggeration emotion and rhetoric of every kind" Randall Jarrell New York Times Book Review "To succeed in writing these tales as Berlioz most brilliantly does requires a combination of qualities which is very rare the many-faceted curiosity of the dramatist with the aggressively personal vision of the lyric poet" W. H. Auden The Griffin". Amazon. paperback

rif. 4168015 measures titled and signed below the music: "Thème e Bal e La Symphonie Fantastique. H. Berlioz." Undated but ca. 1840-1850. The complete main theme of the second movement "Un Bal" carried by the violins in measures 38 to 54 of the full score. 1 leaf. Notated in dark brown ink within decorative dark gold borders on Lard-Esnault paper. Oblong quarto 227 x 300 mm. "The composition of the 'Symphonie fantastique' was a momentous event in Berlioz's career his first full-scale masterpiece and equally momentous in the history of music as the first unequivocal declaration of romantic ideas in style and musical language and its echo has pervaded all music of passion and personal experience to this day . Of Harriet Smithson's identity as the 'beloved' portrayed by an 'idée fixe' in the form of an obsessive theme that recurs in all the movements there can be no question." MacDonald: Berlioz p. 18. With: - Roger Gustave-Hippolyte 1825-1879. Autograph musical quotation signed "G. Roger" being a 12-measure song for voice and piano commencing "d'autiens tu beau miage" to lower portion of recto. With to verso: - Adam Adolphe 1803-1856. Autograph musical quotation signed "Ad. Adam" being a 16-measure waltz for pian. - Halévy Fromental 1799-1862. Autograph musical quotation signed "F. Halévy" being a 22-measure work for piano titled "Suite." A dynamic excerpt from one of the great revolutionary works of the Romantic period constructed around a recurring "idée fixe" a concept originating with Berlioz's revolutionary Symphonie Fantastique and presenting here as a recurring theme associated with Berlioz's obsession with Irish actress Harriet Smithson. A unique artifact incorporating a rare quotation from one of the most outstanding works of the symphonic repertoire of the Romantic period the whole linking Berlioz with three important French musical figures of the mid-19th century. unknown
rif. 416811 leaf. Oblong folio 268 x ca. 170 mm. 7 measures notated in black ink on one side of the leaf. Unsigned. Several notes crossed out and a final passage rewritten. A first draft of a polyphonic theme. Identified in German in contemporary manuscript at head: "Handschrift von Hector Berlioz Erste Skizze. Benvenuto Cellini." Some wear and browning; slightly creased at folds; lower edge unevenly trimmed. The present manuscript not recorded in Holoman. Benvenuto Cellini an opéra semi-seria in two acts to a libretto by Léon de Wailly and Auguste Barbier assisted by Alfred de Vigny was based on the memoirs of Benvenuto Cellini. Set in 16th century Rome during the papacy of Clement VII the work premiered in Paris on 10 September 1838 at the Opéra and was produced in a revised version in Weimar at the Grossherzogliches Hoftheater on 20 March 1852 and with further revision in three acts on 17 November 1852. "Whether it originated as a serious or a comic opera the result in all its many versions is a compound a characteristic blend of idealism and farce grandeur and wit breadth and vivacity. Berlioz poured into Benvenuto Cellini every drop of invention and feeling at his command in a torrent of notes that make up a long and very lively opera and its heterogeneity so baffling to Parisians in 1838 and Londoners in 1853 is one of its main virtues." Macdonald: Berlioz p. 106. "Berlioz stands as the leading musician of his age in a country France whose principal artistic endeavour was then literary in an art music whose principal pioneers were then German. In many senses the Romantic movement found its fullest embodiment in him yet he had deep Classical roots and stood apart from many manifestations of that movement. His life presents the archetypal tragic struggle of new ideas for acceptance to which he gave his full exertions as composer critic and conductor. And though there were many who perceived greatness in his music from the beginning his genius only came to full recognition in the 20th century. . In Berlioz's own words Benvenuto Cellini 'contains a variety of ideas an energy and exuberance and a brilliance of colour such as I may perhaps never find again.' " Hugh Macdonald in Grove Music Online A rare working manuscript from one of Berlioz's important stage works evidencing the compositional process through its autograph revisions. While short musical quotations in Berlioz's hand are not rare his sketch leaves are very rare to the market; we have located only one example at auction in over 30 years. unknown
