With My Very Best Thanks For Your Friendly Letter I Send You,
According To Your Wish, The Score Of The "Prometheus" Choruses.
For The Present I Am Not Requiring It, And Send It You With Great
Pleasure, So That You May Be Able To Read It Through At Your
Ease.
I fear, alas!
That the difficulty of some of the intonation
in the first choruses may make the studying of it a rather
detailed matter to you. Such irksomeness unfortunately attaches
to all my works, not excepting the Ave Maria, which I might
nevertheless venture to recommend to you next, if you have any
intention of performing a vocal work of my composition. It was
published by Breitkopf & Hartel (score and parts), and has been
pretty favorably received at various performances of it.
I wrote yesterday to His Royal Highness, and expressed my special
thanks for the kind attention in inviting Herr von Bulow during
my stay at L. I rejoice immensely at the thought of these days,
in which musical matter will by no means be wanting to us.
Meanwhile remember me most kindly to your orchestra, which
preserves so well its high renown, and accept, my dear sir, the
assurance of high esteem with which I remain
Yours in all friendship,
F. Liszt
