Tam proposing a different plan to you which does not attempt more than to allow us both to live in a most discreet manner, and here it is. During my sojourn in Rome I have written some musical pieces of a style never before known, resulting, moreover, from my special acquaintance with Rossini who thas favoured me with many originals from which I could arrange whatever suited me. Conclusion: I would like to publish this music, I make you the most friendly offer of it, and following my return to Milan we shall have occasion to make a binding agreement, 4 No, 1 Gran Pot-Pourri for guitar, called La Rossiniana — a piece I use =p in my concerts 10 Luigi 2 Variations for guitar 4 ditto 3 Rapsodie for guitar in an original style 6 ditto 4 Gran Rondo Militare in concerto style 7 ditto 5 Gran Sonata Eroica for guitar of great dimension, and never before heard 2B ditto 40 Beyond these a quantity of other small things in a new and gallant style which I will ‘not enumerate but which are at your disposal. T would require 50 Luigi for the moment and I will send you everything I have according to your prompt reply, and when I shall be in Milan we shall settle all our accounts. _—_T shall not give exact details about the circumstances which oblige me to appeal to You but in the future you will find me to be the most attentive man on this earth. Ie will be very useful for you to sell to these publishers in Vienna half the property. of my manuscripts, as since my departure they have not received a single musical note from me. Besides you will setle with them according to your wise counsel. __ 1 beg you to reply quickly, indicating a person to whom I could hand over the uscripts here in Rome and who would get them to in with all esteem and affection r ‘Explanation of the following signs may be useful: ‘Die Erklarung der folgenden Zeichen mag fur den Spielér von Nutzen sein Lrexplication des signes suivants pourra @tre utile: LH legato or slur.
