Vieuxtemps, Henri. (1820-1881). "Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes" - Autograph Letter Signed to Eugénie Garcia. ALS of the great Belgian violinist and composer to "Madame E. Garcia," Paris. In French. March 22, 1841. 1 p. Bifolium; address to final page. In full: "Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes Madam, My friend Wolff and I accept, with transportation, your gracious invitation that you have extended to us. We reserve for us on this evening the pleasure to declare our appreciation. H. Vieuxtemps." In fine condition. 8.25 x 5.25 inches (21 x 13 cm).

"E. Garcia" probably refers to Eugénie Garcia, née Mayer (1814-1880), wife of the baritone Manuel Garcia jr. (1805-1906), who lived in Paris at the time. "Wolff" is the Polish-born pianist Édouard Wolff (1816-1888), a frequent collaborator with Vieuxtemps. Vieuxtemps was one of the most important musicians of his generation. As one of the greatest of all violin virtuosos, he was compared to Paganini by both Schumann and Berlioz. As a composer, he was an important reformer of the concerto and in this regard, according to Grove, "can be compared to Liszt."
