HENRI HERZ - PIANIST |
|
Rare autographed letter by the Austrian-French pianist to composer Charles Panseron, requesting that he judge a contest at the Herz Brothers salon. Henri Herz was one of the legendary virtuoso pianists in Paris during the early to mid 19th Century. He was known for his brilliant concerts, where he would demonstrate his pianistic prowess and fireworks. He and his brother Jacques had a salon in Paris, where they taught numerous students. Herz toured the world, including the United States, often with the legendary Polish violinist Henryk Wieniawski as a partner. His brother Jacques kept the home fires burning in the salon. My dear Panseron, Monday next, the 31st at 1:00, we have a contest of our advanced level students of piano. My brother Jacques and me would be very obliged to you if you would grant us the favor to judge them. A word of answer I request from you. Many thanks, H. Herz
