Description

Ruggero Leoncavallo

Italian composer (1857–1919) best known for his operas, particularly the beloved repertoire staple ‘Pagliacci’ (1892). ALS in French, signed “R. Leoncavallo,” four pages on two adjoining sheets, 4.25 x 7, no date. Letter regarding a manuscript of Detroyort’s, which Madame Levysohn gave to him at her home. He hasn’t found it in looking through his papers, and thinks he may have left it on a table in the room next to the dining room. Leoncavallo is terribly busy and asks that the letter that accompanies his be given to Madame Levysohn. A couple spots of adhesive remnants to the upper corners, a small stain to the bottom of the second page, and a couple pencil notations to the front, otherwise fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
