Hungarian-born musician (1881–1945) who, through his far-reaching endeavors as composer, performer, educator, and ethnomusicolgist, emerged as one of the most forceful and influential creative personalities of the 20th-century. ALS in French, one page both sides, 6.75 x 8.25, January 10, 1921. Letter written from Budapest to an unidentified gentleman, translated in full: “I have spoken to my publishers in Budapest and they will send you gladly those compositions of mine you still do not have. I am very happy to hear that you want to take care of my whole oeuvre. I have just read in ‘Rivista Italiana’ a note signed by you on my Piano Suite and on the several scores of popular songs. But I would still advise you to wait for the publication of ‘Holzgeschnitzte Prinz’ (a partomine) that will happen in a few weeks, as I have already corrected the proofs. Have you received my latest publication by ‘Universal Edition,’ that of ‘Three Piano Studies?’ Please let me know when you receive those of my compositions that I have asked my publishers in Budapest to send.” In fine condition, with vertical fold to left edge, central horizontal fold passing through tops of a couple letters of signature, and a small pencil notation to front.
