Description

Three modern musical titans sign together

Program booklet for a 1962 concert by Rostropovich at the Royal Festival Hall, 7.25 x 9.5, boldly signed in ink on the program page by Benjamin Britten (whose Sea Interludes were on the program), Dmitri Shostakovich (whose Cello Concerto was on the program), and on the program notes page by Rostropovich. A touch of very subtle handling wear, otherwise fine, clean condition. A scarce and most notable combination of these three looming figures of twentieth-century music! R&R COA.
