THE LETTERS OF RALPH VAUGHAN WILLIAMS

The White Gates,
Dorking,

11th December, 1947.

Dear Frank,
Thank you very much for the music, for which I enclose 12/4
I did not accuse Phyllis of belonging to the “Wrong note” school. I only thought, as she was a most intelligent knowledgeable young lady and I am well-known to be the most illiterate musician alive, she probably knew more about it that I did.¹
Yours sincerely,
RVW

(R. Vaughan Williams).

Allan Frank, Esq.,
O.U.P.,
38a Soho Square,
London, W.1.
