Lot description

2 pp. 12mo, in French (sm. tear at the fold).

Answer in a rather dry tone to a letter from his correspondent looking for a position: "Je regrette que le conseil communal de Mons, n'ait pas su assez vivement apprécier vos talents et mérites pour vous retenir (malgré votre mauvaise humeur) en qualité de chef d'orchestre. L'Allemagne est surchargée de maîtres de chapelle dont la plupart restent sans emploi [...]. Mon office n'est point d'influer sur ces placements et déplacements [...]".
Prov. Gustave Huberti (1843-1910), Belgian composer linked to the Flemish school despite his Walloon roots.
