The Autobiography of Karl Von Dittersdorf (Classic Reprint)

Overview

Excerpt from The Autobiography of Karl Von Dittersdorf

The autobiography of Karl Ditters von Dittersdorf, which was dictated from a sick-bed, and finished only two days before the artist's death, has a pathetic side, apart from the interest due to the main story of his career. It was originally published, with some few omissions and alterations, by Messrs. Breitkopf and Hartel, at the beginning of this century, for the benefit of Dittersdorf's widow. This act of kindness was well bestowed.
