Wonderful printed score of "Medea" (Cherubini) for voice and piano, signed by many of the singers in the performance of this opera in Dallas, 1958.

In-8. B. Pietroburgo 25 Gennajio 1879. To “Sig.r Giulio Ricordi”: “…a tutto oggi si sono date venti opere, con pubblico sempre numeroso, però con un incasso inferiore dell’anno scorso, gli artisti più o meno piacciono tutti, le stelle fanno muovere di più la claque, ma la cassetta dell’impresa resta stazionaria. La Signora [Carolina] De Cepeda a mezza stagione sciolse il suo contratto, dicono per angherie ricevute da questa direzione. La Haris non la fanno più cantare, la Stella Albani che si pappola cinquemila franchi per recita, a successi di artista comune. La Signora [Carolina] Salla piace molto, ma la sua voce non si presta a cantare il grande repertorio come lei vuole…”. 3 pp. In-8.
