Description

Oblong 4to. 1 p. Largo in e minor for piano, comprising 10 bars, inscribed to a Mademoiselle J. Culhat de Coreil. - Jean-Henri Ravina was born into a family of musicians and had his first public appearance at the age of 8. He studied at the musical school of Charles-Valentin Alkan's father and later entered the piano class of Pierre-Joseph-Guillaume Zimmermann at the Paris Conservatory. At 17 years of age he became assistant to a professor at the Conservatory. Ravina resigned two years later in order to pursue his career as a virtuoso pianist. His tours of France, Spain, and Russia were highly acclaimed, and his compositions proved immensely popular. - Trimmed along the lower margin, slightly affecting the signature. With traces of folds, minor tears, some foxing and browning. Traces of former mounting and collector's notes on verso.
