D'Indy, Vincent - Autograph Letter Signed 1917

Item #: K3889-C6C

French composer and teacher (1851-1931), one of the leading composers of his time in France, and his works are still worldwide performed today.

Beautiful autograph letter in French (untranslated) signed by him, dated in Boffres, August 31, 1917, addressed to the Belgian violinist Armand Parent (1863-1934), concerning common mistakes in the dates of Beethoven’s music works, sending him a chronology:

“…D’abord, il ne faut jamais se fier, pour fixer la date d’une composition, surtout chez Beethoven, au N° d’oeuvre, mis n’importe comment par un éditeur. Ainsi pour la sonate de piano, l’op. 49 est de 1792, très antérieur à l’op. 2 qui est de 1796; de même la sonate Appassionata qui porte le N° 57, est antérieure comme composition à l’op 53, connue sous le nom de L’Aurore….”. At the end of the letter, d’Indy evokes the work he is attending to: “…Je viens de terminer ma IIIe symphonie, l’esquisse s’entend… et je commence l’instrumentation qui m’amuse énormément, mais je ne pourrai achever celle-ci cette année, ce sera pour les vacances prochaines…”.

Open size is 8.8 x 7 inches, 4 written pages in one folded sheet, some folds, few creases, in overall very good condition.
