Beschreibung:

Autographed letter signed in Berlin, June 2, 1910. Manuscript in black ink. 3 leaves (3 written pages). Dimensions: mm 285x225. Long letter in which the composer explains to the recipient his editorial project. "I am going today to discuss a new project that I have long cherished and that I consider to be at the point of maturity. Desiring [...] to be welcomed and appreciated in Italy [...] I am convinced that the time has come to publish an Italian edition of my collective piano works [...]. This publication would include [sic!] several volumes and would be divided into early works, transcriptions, and recent origianl works." Il 1910 è l’anno in cui Busoni diede alle stampe, presso Breitkopf & Härtel di Lipsia, la sua prima grande edizione lisztiana: la raccolta completa degli Studi, in tre volumi. Busoni, uno dei più grandi pianisti e virtuosi di tutti i tempi, approfondì nel suo pianismo soprattutto la tecnica trascendentale di Liszt e lo studio di J. S. Bach. Fu anche un innovatore nell’ambito della tecnica pianistica e si scostò dai “vecchi metodi” didattici, valorizzando le caratteristiche individuali degli allievi.
