TCHAIKOVSKY, Peter Ilyich (1840-1893). Autograph letter signed ('P. Tchaïkovsky') to Edouard Bergson, 'Frolowskoe, près Vlina', 28 August 1888, in French, INCLUDING AN AUTOGRAPH MUSICAL QUOTATION SIGNED OF SIX BARS 'Tiré de la Fantaisie "Romeo et Juliette"', 3 pages, 4to, on a bifolium, framed and double-glazed.
A letter of abject apology, with a fine musical quotation sent as a peace-offering. Tchaikovsky is utterly ashamed to be replying so late to a letter of 10 February, 'and one whose contents were so flattering to my artistic amour propre'. He can hardly say how it happened - his friends will testify that he never sins in punctiliousness or civility: the truth was that he had lost Bergson's letter, and it was only on the day of writing that it had turned up again.
To make up for his tardiness, Tchaikovsky sends a magnificent quotation from the Fantasy Overture: Romeo et Juliette, representing the string passage at bars 192-198 immediately following the second theme. The tempo marking 'And[ante] non tanto' is not present in the published text, and the expression mark also varies (p for pp).
