Paganini, Nicolo - Original Concert Playbill 1832

Wonderful, original playbill announcing a concert by Nicolo Paganini in London, on July 17th, 1832. This was his 4th concert of the 1832 series, at Theatre Royal, Covent Garden, was part of the concerts he gave in London between 1831 and 1834.

Playbill announces the performance of one of his own violin concerts, his sonata from "Mose in Egitto" by Rossini, and a Tema and Variations on one string only, a signature piece in concerts by the greatest violin virtuoso of all times. Also, an Andantino and variations, also composed by him, plus some music by other composers (Haydn, Rossini, Beethoven, Paer and others). The orchestra was conducted by English conductor George Smart (1776-1867) - quite a musical evening!.

One shit, oblong shape with some irregular borders, on hand-made paper, 8 x 13.25 inches, small paper loss on the upper right corner and minor mounting damage over the right border and near the bottom, almost no rust, in very good condition.
