Uncommon original small wartime-format concert program, October 28 (no year, possibly 1945?) from a Neveu performance of the Beethoven concerto with Charles Munch conducting, Théâtre des Champs-Elysées Société des concerts du Conservatoire. Complete, 12 pp, 4 x 5 inches (10.5 x 14 cm). Block separated internally from covers, a little worn, else fine.
The brilliant French violinist died tragically at the age of 30 in a plane crash on her way to the US for a concert tour. Charles Münch who had worked with Neveu frequently, conducted a concert dedicated to her in the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées in July of 1950 and said of her “Dear Ginette, the memory of you will never cease to haunt us, and each time that by the grace of God we are able to make music really well, we shall feel you very close to us.”
