rif. 2439115 July 1859. London. Meyerbeer is said to have been the most frequently performed opera composer during the nineteenth century. He encouraged and supported the young Wagner who turned on him viciously later in life. Lady Molesworth née Andalusia Carstairs d.1888 had herself been a professional singer. She was the widow of Sir William Molesworth 1810-55 founder of the London Review and owner under the editorship of John Stuart Mill of the Westminster Review. Regarding the present item Meyerbeer notes in his diary for Sunday 17 July ‘Big dinner and musical soiree at Lady Molesworth’s.’ Sir Charles Santley recalls in his reminiscences ‘singing for Meyerbeer at a party at Lady Molesworth’s house’ in order to reassure him that he was up to the part of Hoel in Chorley’s English version of ‘Dinorah’. 1p 12mo. On recto of first leaf of a bifolium. In fair condition lightly aged and folded four times for postage. Blot at top right-hand corner in same ink as note. Reads: ‘Meyerbeer présente ses respectueux hommages à Mylady Molesworth & se rendra avec autant d’empressement que de plaisir à l’aimable invitation de Mylady pour dimanche prochain / Londres 14 Juillet 59.’ See image. 15 July 1859.

2018cm 25 x 32, 148 pp. Carus-Verlag GmbH - ISBN 9783899483130 The organ is the instrument on which the young Giacomo Puccini began his career as a musician. Through the rediscovery of a considerable number of hand-written pieces, which he composed after 1870 as part of his duties as organist in the churches of Lucca, several primary sources are now available. These give an insight into the beginnings of his musical activities which have only been known about from anecdotes from his first biographers until now. Puccini?s organ repertoire includes works which were typical for liturgical organ music at that time: sonatas for the main sections of the mass, versets which were substituted for Gregorian chant, marches, which were played after the mass (exceptionally even waltzes), and even a pastorale for Christmas time. This music was written with the sound of instruments made in Tuscany in mind. These have just one manual, a 8 foot Principale register and a small pedalboard always coupled to the manual. In addition there were several solo stops divided into "bass" and "soprano".Puccini contributed with originality to the renewal of Italian organ practice, which began in his day to discard its operatic style in favor of a style more suited to the liturgy.

1870In folio (39×58 cm). Croquis par Ciardi, Dessinè sur pierre pad A. Lebedeff. Una mano coeva ha scritto con matita rossa il nome di Nápravník al margine basso della tavola. Bellissima caricatura del celebre compositore e direttore d’orchestra ceco Eduard Francevic Napravnik (Býšt, 24 agosto 1839 – San Pietroburgo, 23 novembre 1916). Napravnik, naturalizzato russo, fu una delle figure centrali della scena musicale russa dell’ottocento. Fu il direttore d’orchestra principale del teatro Mariinskij di San Pietroburgo per decenni. Diresse le prime di numerose opere russe, fra cui quelle di Musorgskij, Cajkovskij e Rimskij-Korsakov. “Nel 1854 entrò nella Scuola organistica di Praga, dove ebbe come professori Jan Bedrich Kittl ed altri, divenendo assistente professore. La generosità del suo insegnante gli permise di continuare gli studi. Nel 1861 ricevete un’offerta dalla Russia: il posto di direttore dell’orchestra privata del principe Jusupov a San Pietroburgo. Nápravník divenne organista e direttore assistente dei Teatri Imperiali nel 1863, secondo direttore nel 1867 e primo direttore, succedendo a Ljadov, nel 1869: mantenne il posto fino alla morte. Diresse le prime rappresentazioni di Boris Godunov di Musorgskij nel 1874, di cinque opere di Cajkovskij, fra cui La Pulzella di Orléans, Mazeppa e La dama di picche e cinque di Rimskij-Korsakov, fra cui Notte di maggio, La fanciulla delle nevi e La notte prima di Natale. Diresse anche i concerti della Società musicale russa. Nel 1914, dopo una fruttuosa carriera al servizio dell’opera russa, fu costretto ad interrompere la sua attività per motivi di salute. Nápravník è anche noto per aver diretto la seconda — ed assolutamente convincente — rappresentazione della Sinfonia n. 6 di Cajkovskij, il 15 novembre 1893, nove giorni dopo la morte del compositore. La prima, diretta dallo stesso compositore, non aveva avuto tanto successo, e per la mancanza di familiarità con una composizione tanto ricca di novità da parte del pubblico e dell’orchestra, e per la stessa direzione di Cajkovskij. Sotto la bacchetta di Nápravník e nell’emozione per la recente scomparsa del compositore, la sinfonia fu accolta come un capolavoro. Comprendeva anche alcune piccole correzioni apportate da Cajkovskij dopo la prima e quindi quella di Nápravník fu la prima rappresentazione della sinfonia nella forma in cui oggi la conosciamo”. La caricatura è opera del celebre compositore, flautista e caricaturista fiorentino Cesare Ciardi (Firenze, 28 giugno 1818 – Strel’na, 13 giugno 1877). Dopo una grande carriera in Italia ed in Francia nel “…1853 Ciardi partì per l’estero: Parigi e poi Pietroburgo dove resterà per anni come flautista dello Zar, direttori dei Teatri Imperiali e successivamente docente di flauto al neonato Conservatorio di Pietroburgo creato da Anton Grigorevic Rubinštejn; lì, per due anni (come scrive Fabbri, 1999), Pëtr Il’ic Cajkovskij studia flauto con Ciardi diventandone sincero amico; anche il celebre clarinettista Ernesto Cavallini lavorava nella stessa città entrando spesso in contatto con Ciardi. L’ultimo rimpatrio di Ciardi è del 1867 documentato dal programma di un ‘Gran Concerto Vocale e Strumentale’ a Prato dove Ciardi si esibì trionfalmente”. Esemplare in buone-ottime condizioni di conservazione. Rara.

In-8, broché, couverture de papier moucheté moderne, 8 p. (qqs. rouss.) Edition originale de ce rapport historique. Chénier propose à la Convention deux décrets qui seront votés le 16 thermidor suivant (3 août 1795). Il établit un Conservatoire de musique "dans la commune de Paris pour exécuter et enseigner la musique" composé de 115 artistes, détaille son organisation, ses institutions, sa bibliothèque et les conditions de recrutement des professeurs et des élèves. Le conservatoire est investi d’une double mission: participer à la célébration des fêtes nationales et former gratuitement des élèves des deux sexes dans "toutes les parties de l’art musical". Ce rapport est à l’origine de l’institution telle que nous la connaissons : l’Institut réorganisé prit le nom de Conservatoire national de musique, devenu le CNSMDP. (Martin & Walter, I, 7303).
