Clémence de GRANDVAL (née de Reiset, 1828–1907, composer, student of Saint-Saëns; she received piano lessons from Chopin) / Signed autograph letter, 3 pages, in-8, from Fontainebleau: she is working on her opera, complains about Mr. Pasdeloup, affirms her friendship with music publisher Georges Hartmann, and regarding “the Union of Young Composers” (note: a short-lived association founded in 1882—which helps date this letter—by Ernest Chausson, perhaps the recipient of this letter?)
