BARTÓK, Béla (1881-1945)
Autograph letter signed ('Béla Bartók') to an unidentified recipient ('Cher Monsieur'), Budapest, 9 February 1922.
In French. 1 1/2 pages, 266 x 200mm, the two autograph concert programmes on the verso annotated in red pencil with timings.
Concert programmes for a visit to Paris. 'Your letter arrives at the moment when I receive news from England that my journey there could at last take place. Consequently I have every reason to consider my trip to Paris definitively settled. I accept with pleasure the proposal of the Duchess of Clermont-Tonnerre ... I enclose two programmes with this letter, one for a case in which my songs should not be performed in the concert. / I am leaving for England around 10 March...'. The two concert programmes on the verso include Bartók's Elegy No.1 op.8b, Piano Suite, op.14, two Burlesques, op.8c, Improvisations on Hungarian Peasant Songs, op. 20, and Violin Sonata, op.21, together with three pieces from Kodaly's op.11: the second programme replaces the Elegy with Four Hungarian Folksongs.
