Highly desirable AMQS on a pink 6.25 x 3.75 album page, boldly signed in black ink, "Gustav Holst, 1933." Holst pens one bar from the bassoon part of the opening of 'Mercury-The Winged Messenger' from 'The Planets.' Signed below by noted musicologist and composer Donald Tovey, "With reverence for the great master and sorrow at the loss of my friend I sign my name on the page honoured by him, Donald Francis Tovey, 1936." Below Tovey is an AMQS by composer and eurhythmics pioneer Emile Jaques-Dalcroze, and the page is also signed on the reverse by composer-organist E. Stanley Roper and composer-pianist Moriz Rosenthal. In fine condition.
