German violinist and composer (1831–1907) ranked second only to Paganini among 19th-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, two pages on two adjoining sheets, 4.5 x 7, no date. Letter to Mrs. Senior. In part: “I must thank you in one line for your cheering note…it is so delightful to know that you are so much better and even allowed to go to the Crystal palace for a rehearsal. But alas, I am not to play there any more; I must come some day and play at your house, and I will let you know when there is the rehearsal for the concert in aid of the blind at St. James Hall.” Reverse of second page is affixed to a slightly larger sheet. Spots of toning to second page from adhesive on reverse, with lighter toning to first page, and some slight brushing to a few letters of text, otherwise fine condition.
