VERDI, Giuseppe (1813-1901). Autograph letter signed to Eroteide Soldati, Busseto, 21 May 1848, a warm letter expressing sorrow that Signora Soldati has been ill but pleasure that she is now recovered and wishing that he will be able to see her, 1 page, octavo, integral address leaf, (tipped onto card at the upper edge of the address leaf) Eroteide Soldati had been kind to Verdi in his early days and this letter is a charming example of Verdi remembering old friends. Franco Abbiati quotes part of a letter dated Milan 7 November 1845 where Soldati is described as già prodiga di gentilezze quand'egli era un semplice maestrino . (Franco Abbiati, Giuseppe Verdi , Milan, 1951, vol.1, p.589) Apparently unpublished.
