ONSLOW George (1784-1853).
6 L.A.S. "G. Onslow", Clermont 1825-1853, to Pierre-Joseph
ZIMMERMAN| 13 pages in-8, addresses.
1825. Congratulates him on his work received at the Opéra: "he is now eager to see it performed". He is ready to support him, but "there will be no complacency in my prayer| it will be based entirely on the conviction of all that your talent &| your person are worth". Since his return from Paris, "not once have I approached a piano or written a note". He does not wish "this musical lethargy" on Zimmerman. April 12, 1832. He thanks Zimmerman for his kind approaches, but asks him to cancel them. April 12, 1838. He sends Zimmerman the score of his opera
Le Duc de Guise (unsuccessfully performed in September 1837): "Cast your eyes over this production, which its ill-fated fate may well make its author's last &| be sure that if he has no more musical thoughts to give, he will always be able to express the attachment he begs you to share with your kind and excellent wife". October 10, 1842. He has had an accident and broken two ribs, but is sufficiently recovered to attend the wedding of Georgina Lefebvre, a pupil of Zimmerman, who marries a young man from Clermont.
Marmontel "misled you by telling you that I was withdrawing my candidacy for the Institut"| here they are competitors, "but act in your interests as if I did not aspire to the same honor"... January 2, 1853. His rheumatism makes him suffer, and if
Zimmerman was able to find a remedy in Aix, his own pains have diminished| but he still has "a partly numb &| weak foot.
I limp and walk with difficulty". He will come to Paris in February, however, and "will only resemble what I once was in my eagerness to come and find you &| yours"...
