Autographed letter signed twice ("Jenny Lind"), four pages, on a bifolium, Hannover, February 14, 1850, in German. The Swedish Soprano (1820-1887), known as "The Swedish Nightingale," writes to the Kapellmeister Pott at Oldenburg, the famous violinist, expressing dismay to learn that he has abandoned plans to put on a concert and indicating that she is nervous to sing at her upcoming programme due to illness. On the final leaf she thanks him for his most recent letter, which she had just received before sending her reply. 9 1/4 x 5 1/2 inches folded.
