THE LETTERS OF RALPH VAUGHAN WILLIAMS

The White Gates,
Dorking,

22nd. June, 1949.

Dear Mrs. Thomson,

Thank you very much for the delightful photographs, which remind me of a very pleasurable visit to Birmingham.
I feel so pleased that your young people like the Opera, and for one reason perhaps even more than any other – that it introduces many of them, I believe for the first time to Shakespeare, which is worth doing, even for no other reason.
Yours sincerely

R. Vaughan Williams

Mrs. Thomson,
