Rossini writes to recommend himself to Capranica, explaining that his correspondent´s aimable nephew, who is bound for Rome, will deliver the letter, adding that he understands Capranica is in better health and remarking ´I hope and wish that a prompt recovery will leave you time to spend on music, certain that you do so with style and knowledge´ and also adding ´I, although I go beyond the worn crucifix, write....music to "tuer les temps comme disent dire" (kill time, as they say), and if I am still with this world when you next visit Paris (which I, for one, wish for fervently), I will put forward as a contribution to your indulgence to hear a piece of your music´. With integral address leaf in Rossini´s hand, addressed to Capranica as a ´Celebre compositore Dilletante di Musica´. A couple of stains only very slightly affect a few words of text but not the signature, otherwise VG
Domenico Capranica (1792-1870) Italian composer and a member of the noble Italian family of Capranica, who were theatre builders and managers, running two theatres in Rome which were important in the history of Italian opera.
