Original souvenir program from two concerts given by Alfred Cortot, Jacques Thibaud and Pablo Casals on May 21 and 22, 1932, to benefit the Comité National Eugène Ysaye. Given in Brussels a year after Ysaye's death, the concerts honored his memory as a legendary violinist and the founder of the Concerts Ysaye. With the Orchestre Symphonique de Bruxelles, the program included Beethoven's triple concerto and Brahms' double concerto, as well as works by Ysaye and Casals. The program features a striking cover design with photographs of Ysaye and the performers, and further photographs, reproduction drawings and images of musical manuscripts. Some light toning and rusting to the staples, but overall in very fine condition. [36] pp. 8.5 x 10.5 inches (21.7 x 27 cm).
