GLAZUNOV
(Alexander Konstantinovich, 1865-1936, Russian Composer, Music Teacher and Conductor)
Autograph Letter Signed in Russian with Translation to Nikolai Karlovich
saying that they had “arrived in Paris a week ago. We had a calm and very pleasant crossing, but a very long one... we took a roundabout course and called at the Port of Vego, in North West Spain... I should like to meet you here, and shall therefore be glad if you will let me know when you expect to be in Paris. They couldn’t tell me at Koussevitsky’s publishing-house, and I was only able to get your address. On board the boat, I made a clean copy of the first movement of the quartet. The others are getting on gradually, but in two weeks time, I shall have to interrupt the work, in order to go to Poland and Prague. I walk a good deal in the Bois de Boulogne and St. Cloud, and yesterday, I spent several hours at St. Germain. The sea-air was undoubtedly beneficial to me, here, I don’t feel so well again...”, 2 sides 8vo., 15 Boulevard Suchet, Paris 16, 8th March
