L.A.S. "H. Berlioz", [London] "17 Old Cavendish Street Thursday evening" [14 June ? 1853], to Frederick GYE| 1 page in-8.
To the director of Covent Garden, concerning Benvenuto Cellini (to be given there on 25 June| an organized cabal brought down the opera, which Berlioz withdrew from the billboard after this single performance). "Please, when you have the poster of my opera composed, include the enclosed indications. They are at least useful, if not necessary. I recommend myself to you for a few tickets, (as many as you can) for the first performance".
