In Detail:
A.L.S. Paris, March 3rd. One page, single-sided;

A.L.S. Rome, November. Two pages, double sided; project and quotation included.
The Italian composer, Vittorio Riete, together with the Countess Pecci-Blunt, were giving birth a Society of Concerts in Rome, to realize unforgettable music nights and spring-concerts.
The first autograph is a simply letter of collaboration of the composers Mario labroca and Casella.
The second and the third autographs deal with a desperate fundraising to subsidive the musical event, under the directives of M. Labroca.
The last letter is the main autograph of the correspondance, explaining the project of three Spring Concerts in details: repertoire, conductors, musicians, quotation, fees for each members, and the final budget deficit.
Vittorio Rieti (Alessandria d'Egitto, 1898 – New York, 1994)
Vittorio Rieti was a Jewish-Italian-American composer, best-known for his tonal and neo-classical music. Firstly he moved to Milan to study economics and after in Rome under Respighi and Casella, and lived there until 1940. In 1925, he temporarily moved to Paris and composed music for George Balanchine's ballet for Diaghilev's Ballets Russes, Barabau. In 1940 Rieti emigrated to the United States, becoming a naturalized American citizen on the 1st of June 1944. He taught at the Peabody Conservatory of Music in Baltimore (1948–49), Chicago Musical College (1950–54), Queens College, New York (1958–60), and New York College of Music (1960–64).
