German violinist and composer (1831–1907) ranked second only to Paganini among nineteenth-century virtuosi. He was a close associate of Johannes Brahms, who wrote a number of works (including the Violin Concerto) specifically with Joachim’s talents in mind. ALS, four pages on two adjoining sheets, 4.5 x 7, no date. Letter to Mrs. Senior. In part: “You must say that I have been most obedient to your orders in not answering your kind, no I may say your dear, charming welcome. I really meant to have come out to see you and yours this week, but I have been very busy indeed with work for the Rhenish Festival in May, which I shall have to conduct, and the work must be done now, for in April my school work begins.” Central horizontal and vertical fold, a mild shade of overall toning, and light show-through from writing on reverse, otherwise fine condition.
