1983rif. 96424New York November 3 1983. 1983. Fine. - Nearly 400 words typed on his 11-3/4 inch high by 8-1/4 inch wide personal stationery. In his letter Serebrier informs his friend City Center Producer Jean Dalrymple that he has "been invited to conduct a pair of concerts with the American Symphony Orchestra in November 1984." "It will celebrate the 20th anniversary of the World Premiere of the Symphony No.4 by Ives." He goes on to mention that a feature article about him is to appear in "Symphony News" magazine and asks if she could get a copy for him and perhaps interest both U.P. and A.P. to cover it. Thinking of the publicity potential of the article he suggests that Carnegie Hall Magazine or Bravo Magazine might be interested in subsequently reprinting the article. Signed "Jose". Jean Dalrymple has subsequently drawn a line through the text indicating she had read the letter. Folded in half horizontally for mailing. Near fine. Jose Serebrier b. 1938 is an Uruguayan conductor and composer. He first conducted at the age of eleven with his school orchestra which toured the country. He graduated from the Municipal School of Music in Montevideo and subsequently won the National Orchestra's composition contest with his "Legend of Faust". He studied conducting with Eleazar de Carvalho and Aaron Copland at Tanglewood and with Pierre Monteux. His first symphony written at age 17 was conducted by Leopold Stokowski. Thereafter he held many conducting posts and toured widely with a number of orchestras. He was one of the most frequently recorded conductors of his generation. Jean Dalrymple 1902-1998 was the dynamic producer and director of theater and light-opera at Manhattan's City Center. Dalrymple began her career in Vaudeville appearing with James Cagney and Cary Grant in the early 1930s. She was a founding member of the American Theatre Wing the theatre service organization. She worked over the years as a personal manager for the likes of Leopold Stokowski Mary Martin Jose Iturbi Andre Kostalanetz Nathan Milstein and Lily Pons. She began her work at City Center with its founding in 1943 serving as a board member producer and publicist. Her productions there from the 1940s through the 1960s were a revitalizing influence on the whole New York theatre scene. In 1951 Jean Dalrymple married Major-General Philip deWitt Ginder commander of the Thunderbirds in Korea. She was a friend to Presidents and entertainment personalities throughout the world.

2020rif. 16113JBloomington: AuthorHouse 2020. First Edition First Printing. Signed by Jim Neglia and Bill Ecker. Hardbound as new in dust jacket. In the 1970s Frederic Schang the former General Manager of Columbia Artists Management published his collection of performing arts visiting cards in four volumes. Neglia's book is the first such book since Schang's final volume Visiting Cards of Pianists made the shelves in 1979. Neglia taking a departure from writing accounts of his life and career in the arts concentrated his efforts on a book focusing on 19th-century classical musicians via the visiting cards. It all began in 1995; while on a concert tour in Vienna Neglia visited a small shop located in the Dorotheum. The shop displayed a wide array of classical composers' autographed letters pictures musical quotes and visiting cards. It was then he began his journey to enjoy the fine art of collecting. By the year 2020 Neglia amassed one of the largest visiting card collections not only in North America but worldwide. After writing his autobiographical books Onward and Upward and Center Stage Neglia took a break from writing about the on-stage portion of his life to concentrate on the off-stage collector's side. Visiting cards were exchanged among trading partners in China as early as the 15th century. Their purpose was to announce your presence in an aristocratic or wealthy home. One would hand the printed card to the servant who greeted you at the door and the card announcing your presence was brought to the person you were visiting in another room of the home or office. Many people would save the cards as a remembrance of the people who visited their home. Visitors from the Past illustrates Neglia's passion for these relics of a time gone by while offering further insight into the private life of the talents of 19th-century composers conductors and musicians from where they originated.

One large oblong silver gelatin photo folio sized 14 x 10.5 in. mounted on black studio board sized 17 x 10.5 in. bumping & chipping at corners minor edgewear to lower fore-edge of image & board spotting on verso of board still VG image w/ good contrast.

1933Very Good Italian Original autograph concert program signed by Carlo Zecchi as 'Carlo Zecchi, 17-4-33'. 21x14,5 cm. Bilingual in Italian and Turkish. 3, [1] p., signature on cover. Program of Zecchi (as a pianist) and Nerio Brunelli (as a violoncellist) which was performed in Constantinople (Istanbul), Beyoglu in 1933 (Lunedi17 Aprile, alle ore 21,30). The program has a decorative cover with its decorative borders and has a couple of postal stamps on its second page (One is Ottoman, one is the Republican Turkey stamp). According to the program, Zecchi and Brunelli performed Mozart, Scarlatti, Beethoven, Varacini, Boccherini, Respighi, Casella, Chopin, Dunkler Brunelli, and R. Strauss. Carlo Zecchi was an Italian pianist, music teacher, and conductor. Zecchi was born in Rome. In Berlin, he studied piano with Ferruccio Busoni and Artur Schnabel. He led pianistic courses in Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, Rome, and in Salzburg. He was a highly acclaimed performer of the works of Domenico Scarlatti, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Claude Debussy, and other Romantic music. Carlo Zecchi made his Italian debut in 1920, first performed abroad in 1922, and made his first tour of the USA in 1931. In 1939 he had a car accident, which obliged him to abandon work as a soloist, although he continued playing the most demanding chamber music and conducting. He played as only as of the duo partner of the cellist Enrico Mainardi. He toured America with the Florence May Festival Orchestra in 1957 and was the permanent conductor of the Vienna Chamber Orchestra from 1964 to 1976. In his last years, two fingers on his left hand were paralyzed, yet he performed Schubert's Trout Quintet. He also taught, mostly at the S. Cecilia Academy in Rome and the Salzburg Mozarteum. Luckily several hours of Carlo Zecchi's playing were recorded, and he also made several recordings shortly before his death. His Robert Schumann, Franz Liszt, and pieces from the Baroque era, such as Antonio Vivaldi-J.S. Bach Concerto, Scarlatti, and Galilei remain unparalleled. While Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli was better known and often recorded, Zecchi represents the height of pianism to emerge from Italy. (Source: Bach Cantatas).
