Renowned English composer (1862–1934) who incorporated American and European influences to form a unique style. Scarce ALS, one page on a 3.5 x 5.5 postcard, January 8, 1910. Letter to music critic Edwin Evans. In part: “Briggfair is being published by Leuckart and no doubt on application they will let you have a proof copy for analysis. It might also be wise for you to consult Mr. Beecham’s programmes.” Addressed on the reverse in Delius’s hand. In very good to fine condition, with light handling wear. The conductor Thomas Beecham played a major part in bringing Delius to prominence by performing his work. During the last 12 years of his life Delius’s wife Jelka wrote almost all his letters; this is one of his rare ALSs. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
