About the Item
Spring-Concerts Report is the main content of this Autograph Letter Signed by the Italian composer Vittorio Rieti to the Countess A. L. Pecci-Blunt.
Paris, March 27th, 1936. In Italian. Three pages, double-sided. Excellent conditions, including original envelope.
After two Spring-Concerts editions, the Italian composer, Vittorio Rieti writes this long autograph letter as a detailed report addressed to the Countess and Patron of Arts, Anna Laetitia Pecci-Blunt. "Se lei, malgrado delle delusioni passeggere, vuole persistere nello sfrozo fatto, in vista di un avvenire sempre migliore, sarà la bnvenuta. ma se invece vuole ritirarsi, sarà la benvenuta lo stesso epr quello che ha fatto". "If you, in spite of passing disappointments, want to persist in the effort made, in view of an ever better future, you will be welcome. But if you want to retire, what you have done will be welcome as well".
Then this letter continues with a balance of successes, failures, things to improve and a clear comparison with the French international music scene, defined as not very avant-garde and boring.
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).
Countess Anna Laetitia Pecci (Rome, 1885 - Marlia, 1971)
Best-known as Mimì, the Italian noblewoman was an art collector, patron and nephew of Pope Leo XIII. Extremely volcanic, she was very active in the cultural field, opening numerous lounges, galleries and theaters. In 1919 she married Cecil Blumenthal, later changed to Blunt, a wealthy Jewish banker from New York, heir to an important collection of nineteenth-century French painting. His Parisian and Roman salons was attended by artists and intellectuals of the caliber of Salvador Dalì, Paul Valery, Poulenc, Paul Claudel, she organized night musics and Springs Concerts calling the most talentuous musicians at the time.
