STRAVINSKY, Igor (1882-1971)
Autograph musical quotation signed (‘I Stravinsky’), from the Symphony of Psalms, Boston, April [19]40.
One page, 124 x 137mm, the fugue theme from the Symphony of Psalms on a single stave, inscribed (‘Voici, mon cher Diller, vos belles quatre notes égarées! Gardez-les bien et ne les perdez plus’) and titled in autograph, in a heat-sealed plastic sleeve. Provenance: Sotheby’s, 7 December 2001, lot 207.
The Symphony of the Psalms. In 1929, Stravinsky signed a contract with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, of which Serge Koussevitzky was now musical director, for a symphony in honour of the orchestra's 50th anniversary season (1930–31). Some four years earlier, he had toyed with the idea of a symphony before abandoning it: that Christmas, using the Vulgate text of the Psalms, he began to construct a choral symphony heavy with ritual atmosphere.
