Influential French composer (1803–1869) of such repertory staples as the programmatic Symphonie Fantastique, the opera Les Troyens, and the colorful “travelogue in tones” Harold in Italy. ALS in French, signed “H. Berlioz,” one page, 4 x 5.25, no date. Letter to Carolyne von Sayn-Wittgenstein with the complaint about a misunderstanding and begging not to go to Meyerbeer's "The Prophet" and rather to go with Kreutzer (Conradin), Ella and him to dinner. In fine condition, with a couple light creases, and slight show-through from wax seal on integral second page.
