Description:
Augsburg: [Johann Jakob Lotter und Sohn], 1815. Very Good -. The part for the organ bass or violone only. 2 p.: music; 31 cm. Disbound from a miscellaneous volume. No date of publication. The composer's opus 4 was published in 1817, suggesting an approximate date of 1815 for this, his first published work. In 1804 Bühler became a choir director in Augsburg, where he remained for the rest of his life. The Augsburg music printers, Johann Jakob Lotter und Sohn, printed those works of his that were issued during his lifetime, so it is likely that they also printed this work. Contents: Kyrie -- Gloria -- Credo -- Et in carnatus -- Sanctus -- Benedictus -- Agnus Dei -- Dona. At head of both pages is printed "Organo"; written in pencil above that: "Violone." The handwritten label on the volume that included this piece listed this as "Missa I in D." In Very Good- Condition: soiled; one horizontal crease; lower edge slightly chipped.

Description:
London, Ewer & Co. [185???] Overstamped in red: Jordens & Martens. New-York 785 Broadway. Hard Cover. 1 p.l., 108 pages; 26.5 cm. Composed in 1843-1845 on commission from the King of Prussia and first performed in December of 1845, Athalie was the last production of Mendelssohn's Berlin period. The first edition was Leipzig, 1849. Jean Racine's (1639-1699) Biblical tragedy was first performed in 1691. This version, with English libretto by William Bartholomew (1793-1867), seems to be the first English edition, and, with its publisher's overstamp, the first American as well. It appears to be earlier than the editions in the NUC (cf. 375: 552-553) or in the Boston or New York Public Libraries catalogs. It certainly dates before 1867 when Ewer merged with Novello. Vg/ bound in 3/4 leather with name label on front cover of Charles F. Leonard (a bass if the pencil markings are his). Stock#OB201.
