PUCCINI Giacomo (1858-1924)

L.A.S. "GPuccini", Torre del Lago 8 November 1909, to Zorah DORLY at the Théâtre de la Monnaie in Brussels| 1 page in-4 at her address, address on the back| in Italian.

Beautiful letter to the creator in French of Madame Butterfl y .
[Zorah DORLY sang Butterfl y in the French premiere of Madame Butterfl y at the Monnaie de Bruxelles on 29 October 1909].

He arrived in Torre del Lago after a brief stay in Milan. He was delighted with the success of the second performance, and also for her, who was getting more and more confident ("Duque la 2 a andà benissimo. Quanto me sono felice anche per voi che cosi vi aff ermate sempre di più"). He asks her to give him details of the other performances. He is alone with his son| he hunts and works, alternately. And he thinks back to the moments in Brussels to the so effi cient and sincere way she embodied her Butterfl y ("la mia Butterfl y cosi effi cacemente e sinceramente") .
