Dear Howes
If you happen to be passing the RCM1 on Thursday Sept 3d at 2.45 p.m. you will find Roy Douglas playing through a new tune by me to David Willcocks to see if he wd like to do it at Worcester next year – I need hardly say that you will be welcome.
The Press are not invited.

1. Royal College of Music
2. The work was Hodie, Catalogue of Works 1954/3. See R.V.W.: a biography pp.337-338 where the letter is printed. The last sentence was to indicate that Howes was being invited as a friend and not a professional critic.
