DONIZETTI, Gaetano (1797-1848). Autograph letter signed ('Donizetti') to Eugène Scribe, 1 rue Grammont [?Paris], 17 December [?1842]), in French, 'Je sais que vous avez lu le nouveau sujet à M r Pillet et qu'il lui plait beaucoup. Je lui ai écrit pou lui demander de nous accorder un rendez-vous pour signer notre contrat [I know that you have read the new subject to Mr Pillet and that he likes it a great deal. I have written to him to ask him to grant us an appointment to sign our contract]'; he wishes to see Scribe beforehand; one page, 8vo , integral address leaf, docketed by recipient. The work referred to may be Donizetti's last completed opera, Dom Sébastien, roi de Portugal , with a libretto by Scribe, which was first performed in Paris, 13 November 1843: its deeply melancholic score was dismissed as 'a funeral in five acts'.
