Description

Francis Poulenc

ALS in French, signed "Francis," one page both sides, 5.25 x 8.25, June 8, no year. Letter mentioning three of his works and lauding tenor Jean Giraudeau, in part (translated): "From all parts people write to me, call me about the success of Giraudeau in The Breasts (The Breasts of Tiresias). I was sure of it and thank you for giving him to me. The part is finally sung, which balances the whole work. I am in the middle of rehearsals for the Stabat I think it will work. If you have nothing better to do, listen in, on Wednesday, June 13 at around 10 on the National. I think you are happy with the success of Bovary which proves that if you are sincere and write with your guts (the right word for a Normand), you win. Bravo!" In fine condition, with writing showing through from opposing sides. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
