Description
FALLA MANUEL DE: (1876-1946) Spanish Composer. A very good A.L.S., Manuel de Falla, one page, to a postcard, Granada, 27th August 1926, to Madeleine Greslé, in French.. The composer sends a lengthy and small writing letter to his friend and Singer Madeleine Greslé, stating `Très heureux d´avoir de vos nouvelles, dont j´étais privé depuis trop longtemps; mais désolé de ne pas pouvoir quitter Grenade cet été à cause du travail urgent. C´est pourquoi le concert en question a été remis à l´été prochain. Autrement je n´ai pas besoin de vous dire quelle aurait été ma joie vous accompagnant les chansons et vous les écoutant encore une fois! Heureusement ma santé est bonne cet été et le travail marche bien à mon aise´ (''Very happy to get news from you, of which I was deprived for too long; but sorry for not being able to leave Granada this summer because of the urgent work I have to complete. This is why the concert in question has been postponed until next summer. Otherwise, I don´t need to tell you how happy I would have been accompanying your singing and listening to you singing them once again! Fortunately my health is fine this summer and work is going well and at my ease.'') Falla further asks for updated news of a common friend, Debussy´s wife, saying `Il y a un siècle que je suis sans Nouvelles de Madame Debussy…´ (''It looks like a century has passed since I had last news from Madame Debussy…'') The postcard bears to the front an image of the Alhambra of Granada, also bearing to a corner an additional affectionate souvenir message in the hand of Falla. G to VG Claude Debussy (1862-1918) French Composer.
